Additional Programming: Advanced Placement (AP) Tutoring, Publications Coaching, and Graduate Admissions Consulting


What our support looks like.

Advanced Placement (AP) Summer Immersion: We provide a summer immersion program for students who want additional preparation before entering their advanced placement courses for the upcoming school year. The summer immersion program includes biweekly coaching sessions, curriculum guides, personalized learning materials, and test-preparation strategies. During the summer immersion, students also complete a full-length AP exam under the guidance of their selected coach. We are currently accepting students planning to enroll in AP Literature and Composition, AP Language and Composition, AP Seminar, and AP Research. In addition to our summer immersion experience, we offer one-on-one tutoring to students throughout their academic year. Please inquire if interested.

Publications Coaching: We provide one-on-one writing coaching for students who are hoping to publish their own writing or who are preparing to submit writing to writing contests, such as the Scholastic Art and Writing Awards, the NYTimes monthly/yearly writing competitions, the John Locke Essay competition, and the yearly Promising Young Writers competition, to name a few.

Graduate and MBA Admissions Coaching: For prospective graduate students, we provide comprehensive admissions consulting and essay coaching services. We walk you through finding a best-fit graduate program based on your career goals and interests, offer unlimited coaching, editing, and support for required essays, coach you through drafting and refining your resume, and provide interview preparation. We support you every step of the way by providing unlimited one-on-one meetings with an education consultant. 

*For pricing details, please contact us. We offer comprehensive consulting and coaching packages, as well as à la carte services billed hourly. We work with families on a sliding scale based on financial need to provide our community with equitable access to services.

We would love to hear from you.
