Struggling with all the information out there about College Admissions?
Join VoicED's College Workshop!

Are you spending time on websites and blogs figuring outÂ
how to make your application for college stand out ?
Let's be honest
Planning for college in high school can feel overwhelming, especially when students don’t know what truly matters in the admissions process. Many students focus on perfecting their resumes and getting high test scores, but miss the bigger picture: crafting a thoughtful, cohesive plan that highlights their passions, strengths, and growth.
Too often, I see students bouncing from activity to activity or scouring the internet for tips, feeling Frustrated, Confused, and Discouraged because they’re unsure of what will actually make them stand out. They don’t realize that success in college admissions isn’t just about ticking boxes; it’s about learning how to strategically reflect on their journey and make every experience count.
A common mistake? Students treat their college plan like a checklist, rather than a roadmap that needs careful thought and revision. Just like a strong essay, college planning requires ongoing reflection and adjustment, not just surface-level edits. To truly succeed and stand out, students must go beyond the basics and dive into what makes them unique.
Â
But fear not! Help is on the way!
This workshop will save you TIME, EFFORT, AND MONEY but, most importantly, make your dreams come true. Getting accepted into your dream college is possible because you will be able to unpack all elements of the application and plan for your unique situation. Â
Who Is The
INSTRUCTOR
I decided to create a solution that would finally help them achieve their academic goals in the FASTEST way possible!
As someone who has been helping high school students achieve their goals for over 18 years, I understand students' struggles when tackling college admissions essays. I've developed a proven system to demystify the process and empower students to write impressive essays. This program is TRIED & TESTED, developed through years of study and teaching.
When I was a director at a prestigious private school, I used to coach English teachers so they could get into the classroom and teach English grammar and academic writing. I can tell you from first-hand experience that most teachers are terrible at teaching writing. They don't have time or the ability to focus on each student’s ideas, story, and voice. Most tutoring businesses and franchises are not any better.
They make students do busy work with oversimplified worksheets and sell them dreams without the actual help and attention to detail needed to produce a truly stand-out application.

Now, if that isn’t enough…
I’ve also included WHITE Paper SAMPLES, which basically do all the thinking for you!
Find Your Voice and Let Your Essay Take You Places
And there is more.
If you choose to attend both workshops,
YOU WILL RECEIVE A PRIVATE 1:1 SESSION TO REVIEW ANY PART OF YOUR ESSAY OR COMMON APPLICATION BEFORE SUBMISSION.
This is a $350/h private consultation FREE for you.
“OK, I hear you… but what’s the price of the workshop?”
The question we were all waiting for! Hear me out…
$5,000… or more is what students pay in a year for weekly professional essay writing ($100 sessions x 50 weeks, assuming only meeting once a week).
$5,100… is what students pay for a year of after-school franchised “academies.”
You can cut that by HALF… and this workshop is STILL a lot less. And this is about college; your future is hinged on this one important message you need to deliver flawlessly.
$479
That’s HIGHWAY ROBBERY!!
That’s less than 7 sessions with a tutor!? Less than 2 months with a franchised academy!
Mentors and peers have told me that I’m not in the right mind to offer this important workshop away for that price – not to mention that guarantee of a private 1:1, but as a trained college consultant, I know the stakes are high, and many need help at this time of the year.
The best part is that you can watch the videos if you miss the meetings and KEEP them to serve you as a guide for months to come.
So What Are You Waiting For? Let’s Get Your Application Started!
Once you sign we will be in touch immediately.
