Testimonials
-
“I was stressed about the college transfer process until I met Paul. Paul was a thorough coach who always made sure I was staying on top of my deadlines. We worked together to create several goals I could achieve each week, and he was prompt to respond with his comments on my work. It was a pleasure to work alongside Paul. I highly recommend him to those going through a similar process.”
Mélanne, College Transfer Applicant -
“Paul was a tremendous help to me while I was applying to medical school. Anyone familiar with the process knows that writing the personal statement and secondary essays can be quite daunting. Paul not only helped me develop a framework to use so I could tackle different prompts, but he also gave me effective writing strategies to improve the quality of my essays. Whenever I sent a piece of writing to him to look over, he always sent notes back within a day. Paul is a talented writer, kind person, and excellent teacher. I highly recommend him to anyone who chooses to apply to medical school.”
MD Applicant -
“Paul is always willing to help and never wavers. He's more like a professor than a tutor with the quality of his input.”
Jonah, International Relations Student -
“Paul helped me articulate my ideas in writing, always encouraging me to put my own words down first. Both my coaches were very knowledgeable and helpful—they consistently checked in on me, and got edits back quickly. Honestly, my time with the coaches and this company exceeded my expectations. I felt like Cambridge Coaching really cared about me and my application. I felt I got my money's worth.”
