Testimonials

“Raissa is highly personable, responsive, engaging, warm, and encouraging. She worked with both my kids during their college prep process—each at different stages—and met them exactly where they were, tailoring her support to their specific needs. She turned what can often feel dreadful and overwhelming into a positive and affirming experience. Both kids came away feeling supported, confident, and equipped for their next steps. She went above and beyond offering additional resources, thoughtful ideas, and detailed proofreading whenever it would be helpful. They had only positive things to say about Raissa and plan to keep her on ‘speed dial’ as they continue their journey. I can’t say enough about Raissa and her skills. We are truly grateful she was recommended to us.”

“Raissa’s gentle, attuned coaching was invaluable. She helped my daughter find her voice, and craft a cohesive, moving essay that showcased her strengths and let her shine! Editing a child’s writing as a parent can be fraught. Raissa stepped in gracefully and offered the kind of support my daughter could accept, allowing me to let go. She worked with my daughter’s schedule and led her through an open, nurturing, collaborative process that helped the whole family during an anxious and exciting time.”
