Our Testimonials
Thanks for all your help. Your suggestion to change the topic of her essay, and your encouragement and editing support along the way, resulted in something that reflected R's voice, creativity and self-awareness. Most importantly, it's something she feels proud of and confident about.
When students find their authentic expression, admission to the college that suits them often follows naturally.
My son enjoyed working with Mr. Shapiro during this extremely competitive year of 2020 with record numbers of applicants.
Mr. Shapiro is a genuinely gifted writing coach who helped organize my son’s own ideas of what truly makes him unique, helping him to stand out to the college admissions committee.
Our son was accepted to his early decision choice of NYU, with 2021 record low acceptance rates of just 12%.
We highly recommend Jonathan!
A good writing coach guides and brings out the best of a student's own ideas and experiences.
Jonathan, she got a hand-written note from the regional admissions officer from Stanford, which said, "I re-read your essays three times, which I really don't have time to do. You are so passionate about your beliefs I knew we had to take you halfway through reading your application."
Standing out from the crowd of applicants means having the courage to state your deeply held views honestly. That is a lesson for college and for life.
My daughter was admitted to Duke last year, her first choice school. I'm sure Jonathan was essential to building her confidence in telling her personal story.
If I had to make one recommendation to parents it would be: start early by involving him in the process by the summer before senior year.
It takes time for an applicant to get comfortable expressing themselves in a new way.
Creating the time and space for your child to lean into their essays was something that Jonathan encourages from the first day of coaching.
