TESTIMONIALS

  • Rebecca coached and advised our daughter through the complicated process of finding the University that was the best fit for our daughter. We couldn’t rave more about our experience working with Rebecca and how she got to truly understand our daughter and form a list of schools that met her goals. Rebecca empowered our daughter to make good decisions with up to date information and acceptance data. Rebecca’s enthusiasm and dedication created a relationship that our daughter enjoyed & her organization allowed her to stay on task & meet deadlines. Rebecca brings incredible enthusiasm and energy to the entire college process, beginning with the first introductory meeting throughout the entire research and application process. With Rebecca's extensive knowledge of the wide variety of colleges and universities, gave great direction in narrowing down college choices and finding the right fit of schools to apply to. Our daughter was encouraged and inspired throughout the entire application process and Rebecca acted as a great guide and mentor to her.

  • Rebecca is truly one in a million. From our first conversations, she had such a great rapport with us, and separately with our daughter, and proved to be an invaluable addition to team Charlotte. We could always count on Rebecca to be an encouraging, empathetic and wise voice of reason during what can be a stressful process. Rebecca was especially helpful in drawing out our daughter’s authentic voice in all her essays. She provided valuable counsel and feedback including what topics to write about and how best to articulate herself. Rebecca has that rare quality of being a champion of her students while equally being a delight to interact with as a parent. We look forward to using her again when the time comes for our youngest child!

  • Rebecca ROCKS! She helped my son and daughter with their college application essays- not just brainstorming and narrowing down interesting topics, but finding the opportunities for essays/themes to be used for multiple schools- maximizing writing efforts. She also helped them think about the timeline of when essays were due, working backwards to make sure deadlines were met in plenty of time. Most importantly, she was an encouraging, supportive, and confidence boosting presence for my kids and for me! She took the time to answer questions about any aspect of the college process we were curious about. I can not recommend her highly enough!

  • Working with Rebecca was a great experience and changed my application process for the better. She has a unique ability to improve writing without altering the student's voice, which is so important for maintaining authenticity in the application process. She truly works with the student, not for them, ensuring that their narrative and ideas are kept intact. What really sets her apart is how well she listens to the student’s perspective, keeping their thoughts at the forefront of each session—not just focusing on what parents or others might expect.

  • Rebecca was great to work with at the onset of our college process! She laid out the timelines and necessary steps for me & had immediate engagement with my son who really responded to her calm and easy going approach. Having worked in our local schools, she really knows what colleges are looking for & how each local high school’s offerings match with the acceptance rate. Highly recommend Rebecca as you dive into the process!
