“I have been accepted into my top choice! Thank you very much for working with me, Linda, as you were a huge help during the college process. My writing noticeably improved from the time I started writing with you. It was a pleasure being able to learn from you. Your professionalism paired with your understanding made a comfortable working environment for me to share my life with you.”

Charlie R., Montgomery High School; Northeastern University

“In the face of college applications, I felt stressed and overwhelmed. I had so many ideas I couldn't fully formulate, or wouldn't feel confident about. Linda and I developed a plan of action that achieved all of my goals in the tight time frame we were working with. Linda is so positive and supportive; I left each session self-assured and eager to improve. I could see my own progress; my writing came more naturally and my writing at school improved as well. Through Linda's guidance, I felt comfortable and proud of my writing. Thank you, Linda!”

Siya D. - Abington Senior High School Temple University

“I want to thank Linda for all the work we did on my writing. It was definitely helpful, and it really helped get me through the procrastinated workload with great results.”

Jake Z. - Cheltenham High School; Oberlin College

“Within ten minutes of talking with Linda, she quickly assessed the experiences that would make for the most meaningful representation of me, my motivations, and my interests. While some counselors attempt to dictate the process, Linda actually guided me through my own experiences in order to create a vibrant, colorful, and well-crafted depiction of my story. Most importantly, she is invested in her students. So in addition to her helpfulness surrounding grammar and sentence structure, she helped me to share the best side of myself.”

Jaqueline S. - Wyncote; Dickenson Peace Corp Mozambique

“Linda George was absolutely fantastic! She completely understood me and my writing style. In the beginning, I really did not believe I had anything to write about. But once I finished with Linda, we found that I had TOO much to write. She especially helped perfect my writing to make it more concise than it ever had been before. Even when I had my wisdom teeth removed, she arranged the scheduling with me so that I could relax, but also get in the applications on time. All in all, I cannot thank Linda enough!”

Marissa H. - Abington High School; University of Pittsburgh

“I am grateful to Linda for all of her support throughout my grad school application process. Before we started working together, I felt incredibly nervous about how I would stand out as an applicant and best articulate my goals to an admissions committee. After my phone conversations with Linda, when we discussed several essay drafts, I felt proud of the genuine voice reflected in my writing and the amount of attention we paid to every word. She helped to eliminate clutter and distractions from what I most wanted to convey to the reader, while also considering how creativity could shine through.”

Adam H. - Weill Cornell's Health Informatics, NYC

“I cannot thank Linda enough for all of her help.”
