Hire Elise to provide personalized writing and editing services to elevate your content and make it stand out.
College Essay and Writing Coaching
Navigating the college application process can be challenging, and the essay holds particular significance as a profoundly personal aspect that influences admissions decisions. As a writing coach, I guide college-bound students through three steps to create a compelling essay.
Together we:
Discover a unique topic that authentically reflects the student's identity.
Engage in storytelling to make the essay stand out.
Refine the writing to meet the highest standards of grammar, punctuation, and clarity.
Beyond college essays, I also support individuals in finding their voice, developing online content, crafting book proposals, and navigating the book writing journey. Serving as an accountability partner, I help writers set and achieve their goals, providing encouragement, empowerment, and professional feedback throughout the often solitary and challenging writing process.
Their expertise in crafting compelling essays, from discovering unique topics to refining writing, surpassed my expectations. Beyond editing, they fostered a supportive environment that encouraged self-discovery and boosted my confidence. Elise was not just an editor but also a mentor.
