Former College Consulting Client

"Elise was very flexible with my goals and helped me get accepted to all 5 of the colleges I applied to, most of which were very selective. She worked with me on proofreading my college application essays while allowing me to be authentic and write what I wanted to. She addressed every concern I had when writing and was supportive. She is also responsive and will get back to you as soon as she can. If you are unsure of whether or not you need help for your essays, definitely contact Elise."

I would highly recommend her as a tutor."

Former Tutoring Client

"Friendly, knowledgeable and effective tutor"

"I decided to go back to school 18 years after high school graduation and was woefully unprepared for an academic essay that I needed to write for my English Composition class. Elise allowed me to pepper her with questions, which she answered patiently and knowledgeably. She explained everything with examples and made sure that I really understood what she was teaching me. I really need to know the pattern of things and understand why things are done a certain way and Elise was able to effectively communicate with me in the style of teaching that I need. I learned a lot from my tutoring session and I'm glad that Elise was my tutor."
