Without question, engaging Scott was the most valuable educational investment I made to support my…read morechild. It's not cheap, but the outcome is extraordinary. The impact Scott had on my son went well beyond college essay preparation/production. Pre-Scott, my son could barely write a coherent sentence and through the magic of Scott's teaching methodology and in a relatively short timeframe, the improvement was dramatic. The counsel, candid discussions, and direction Scott provided paid huge dividends in the classroom and in daily written communication (emails, texts). My son became a more confident writer and student which of course, carried over to everyday life. As he heads-off to college in the fall (UCLA), I'm forever grateful to Scott for the life-changing role he played in preparing my son for the next chapter and beyond.

He easily connected with my son, was reliable, and very knowledgeable. He knew what colleges were looking for and his guidance brought out the best in my son's writing. With Andrew's assistance my son did an excellent job in choosing his essay topics. As a result of working with Andrew, my son was accepted to Berkeley, UCLA, UCSD, UCSC. He was also excepted to and awarded a regent scholarship to UCSB, and scholarships to Occidental, Harvey Mudd, University of Pittsburgh, and invited to interview for a scholarship at University of Southern California, which was his first choice. He received the scholarship and is now attending University of Southern California. I recommend Andrew without reservation. Andrew is not only excellent at what he does, he also is committed to community service and has volunteered his time to help low income high school students who otherwise would have no guidance in the college application process. He has worked with these students for SAT prep and the essay process and the students consistently found him to be extremely helpful.
