Taimur is a really great tutor. He is kind, patient, and always willing to help. He listens carefully, asks thoughtful questions, and writes things down to help organize ideas. With his support, I was able to finish my first draft, and the experience was extremely helpful. I would definitely recommend him.

Ben invests the time up front to get to know you, your story, and your goals. Then, as you progress through drafts, he really helps this story shine through authentically, which resonates a lot with readers. I view this as an enormously important part of the application process and a great way to stand out from peers. On the more tactical side, my ability to communicate my story improved markedly with Ben's guidance. Even beyond this process, I feel like a more confident and succinct writer and communicator, which has been a huge asset for my job. It's now feeling second-nature to hone in on messaging and what actually matters when communicating, and I have Ben to thank for this!

Dione was instrumental in shaping my Round 2 essays. Coming from a non-traditional background in brand strategy/marketing agencies, I initially struggled to clearly articulate my business impact and rigor. Dione consistently pushed me to reframe my thinking — challenging my language, sharpening my examples, and helping me translate my experience into a personal narrative that truly landed. The difference between my first and final drafts was night and day. Midway through the process, I also hit a wall in articulating a clear career vision. Dione immediately jumped on a call to workshop it with me, pushing me to define specific short-, mid-, and long-term goals that showed a clear pre to post-MBA career trajectory. That clarity transformed my applications, giving me greater confidence in my direction and making my apps across schools far more cohesive and compelling. If you’re looking for support with refining essays and career vision, I can’t recommend Dione highly enough. Working with her enabled me to submit Round 2 applications I’m truly proud of.

Alex was so helpful to me in my application process! I applied for the Round 2 deadlines to 7 programs and focused my essay work with her on my top 3 choices, and had her look at a couple of extra ones for other programs before I submitted. Her talent for editing for clarity, specificity, and impact really helped sharpened my essays. I felt so much more confident in what I was submitting after working with her. Thank you Alex!

As an MBA applicant from a non-traditional background, I was admittedly pretty intimidated by the application process. From my first call with Claire, I immediately felt at ease and confident that working with her would be the right choice. Her knowledge of successful applications, attention to detail, and ability to connect the dots was invaluable through initial brainstorming to prepping my recommenders to getting words down on paper to iterating and refining my essays. Claire was an essential part of shaping my story and knowing which moments and skills to really lean into in order to create a cohesive through line. It was clear from her guidance and advice that she’d really seen it all and was more than equipped to answer any question that came up with pure honesty and encouragement. I can’t thank her enough for all of her help!

Before our first tutoring session, I was overwhelmed and exhausted with trying to achieve the "perfect essay" to submit to highly-ranked schools. However, Robert through humor, sensitivity, and is personal passion for writing made the essay writing experience fun! Not only did I learn how to adjust my paper to align well with those that would be reading it, but I also learned about key strategies or "tricks" that all writers use to capture an audience. After meeting with Robert, I feel that I have new writing skills that I can apply to any future work as well as a well-refined essay that I can submit with confidence. Robert is an excellent teacher and phenomenal writer, and I would highly recommend him!
