Wolf Educational Consulting: what do users think?
Stephanie Monk: Barbara Wolf and her team are exceptional! When my son was diagnosed with dyslexia, I was lost, confused, and no clue what to do. After talking to Barbara and her getting to know my son and his personality, she knew the perfect tutor for him and assured me everything is going to be fine. Over the past 3 months of tutoring, my son has gained so much confidence in reading and writing. Before we started here, he wouldn't even do simple things like read a text message, read a sentence on a sign, or write anything down. Now, he will do these things with no problem. Its those simple things that are so special, b/c i know he is gaining the confidence he needs to succeed in school and in life. Thank you Barbara and your team for all you do for these kiddos.
K C: We wholeheartedly recommend Wolf Educational Consulting! We used Wolf Educational Consulting for over 2 years to strengthen our daughter’s English language arts (ELA) skills. Our daughter eagerly looked forward to her Orton & Gillingham sessions with Ms. Leigh each week! Ms. Leigh possessed the right mix of caring, compassion and instruction to challenge our daughter and help her realize she could achieve anything she put her mind to! As a result of Ms. Leigh’s expertise and dedication, our daughter experienced tremendous improvement and growth in her ELA skills and her confidence. We will be forever grateful to Ms. Leigh and Wolf Educational Consulting for supporting our daughter and our family.
Sandra Talbird: My daughter was diagnosed with non verbal learning disability (NVLD) and phonological disorder (trouble forming and understanding sounds of letters) since Kindergarten. We struggled to find the best intervention to help with learning to read, which seemed impossible to teach given her learning differences. I am so grateful we finally found Leigh Grammich and Wolf Consulting and the Orton-Gillingham approach to learning. The multi-sensory approach, structured learning setting, and focus on repetition and mastery is exactly what she needs, and Leigh is amazing! Leigh has been so flexible during COVID and able to pivot to virtual or in-person learning, which has made a world of difference during this difficult time. Thank you Leigh for all of your work, patience, and love...you are truly giving her the gift of reading!
Candace Whisenant: My daughter has been working with Leigh Grammich with Wolf Educational Consulting for around 4 1/2 years! Leigh's approach to teaching and utilization of the Orton Gillingham curriculum has made an incredibly positive impact. A once frustrated, emotional 2nd grader is now a confident and flourishing 6th grader who earned all A Honor Roll in her first quarter of middle school. I am so very thankful that our referral to Wolf Educational Consulting led us to Leigh. She will forever and always be a special teacher to my daughter and our family. Thanks Leigh!
Laurie Godfrey: We have been working with Barbara Wolf and her exceptional team of trained OG tutors for 3 years. Our son, Daniel (now 10 years old) has dyslexia, and when we first started seeing Barbara, he was having a very hard time learning to read and was behind grade level. Reading was a constant battle. I cannot express the difference Barbara has made for Daniel. She met him exactly where he was, made sessions fun for him and always incorporated things he was interested in. She was SO kind and patient. We just received Daniel’s reading EOG scores for 4th grade, and he scored a 4! His score was higher than 85% of NC 4th graders who took the same test! He is doing so well in school now and is confident in his ability to read and learn! There is no way he would be where he is today if it wasn’t for Wolf Educational Consulting. Daniel is no longer needing tutoring at this time, but his younger sister now sees one of the tutors at Wolf, and she is showing great progress. We are so thankful for Wolf Educational Consulting!
Jen Dietzel: Our son has been benefiting from the expertise at Wolf Educational Consulting since his first session. He instructor, Jo Garvin, has a natural ability to connect and form one-on-one relationships with her students to meet each child’s unique learning style, needs and goals is remarkable. She has a very hands on, colorful approach to learning and her passion for teaching has given our son enthusiasm about learning and achieving his goals. She takes great care to craft a comprehensive, individualized multisensory approach that addresses our son’s needs in phonics, fluency, reading and comprehension and evolves with his development.Jo also closely monitors our son’s progress, adjusting her lesson plan to meet his pace and growth, which has enabled his quick progression in these areas. She provides detailed feedback of his lessons, including what he worked on, areas he struggled or showed improvement, and suggestions for supporting him at home. The transformation we have seen in our son’s abilities and academic confidence because of her expertise and approach is astounding. He started as a frustrated student lacking the foundation and instruction necessary to succeed in reading and writing. Now he is motivated and confident. Simply put, having specialized tutoring with someone who critically evaluates your child’s needs, tailors instruction to the way your child learns best, and is gifted at connecting with students of all backgrounds and abilities, is priceless.
JP Christensen: My son (8) has been struggling with reading his whole life, the public school could not help him. He can re-code a robot 🤖, but needed us to type in the robots name. We tried many different tutoring programs and places. Our son did not click with any of them the way he did with Barb and Amanda. He now asks if he can go to reading every day.While he is not miraculous reading books now; he is understanding the sounds letters make. This is on top of Mrs. Barb expertly recognizing that he was struggling visually and suggested we take him to an eye doctor. After he saw the eye doctor he was diagnosed with a visual deficiency. Now we know at home as well an education environment how best to work with him and now we are seeing dramatic results.On a practical parent note, the office is even in a great location. Lots of parks and ponds within driving distance to entertainment the other kid (s) while one is in session. Even Walmart and other shopping locations for quick errands.
Lacy Bailey: Positive:Communication,Professionalism,QualityThe tutoring my daughter has received has been absolutely invaluable to us and I believe she has a friend for life! We are so blessed we found Miss Leigh.
Tanyia Pritchard: Fabulous group willing to go the extra mile to help their students. Homeschool friendly!

Shelor College Consulting: what do users think?
olivia jackson: Ms. Shelor was a joy to work with. She took the stress out of the college application process. There is so much to keep track of these days. She made things simple and straightforward. We would’ve surely missed some steps along the way without her guidance and support. I highly recommend her services.
Lois Beard: Mrs. Shelor was instrumental in my success to get into my dream STEM program.I am a career changer and I was applying to a very competitive STEM program. The whole application process was beyond stressful. I think essays matter the most as it provides a compelling picture of who I am among my fellow 4.0 GPA applicants. Mrs. Shelor broke down the essay prompts for me and offered the most professional, useful, and insightful advices for me. I was not surprised when I received my admission letter that day. Yes, I was exhilarated but I wasn't surprised. I knew I would get in the moment I submitted the essays.I will not stop recommending her to my friends, families, etc. whoever wants to apply to colleges/programs.Thank you, Mrs. Shelor.
Connie Tang: My husband and I both had college in a different country many years ago as first-generation immigrants. We found we have gaps with our daughter (our oldest child) as to what matters and how to start a good college application process. We decided to have a professional counselor to guide my daughter and avoid any confusion. It turns out such a good decision. Mrs. Shelor's work with my daughter really eased our mind! She's so knowledgeable about the application process and the resources available, and so willing to answer questions and even help with some of my daughter's specific needs to make her more outstanding, such as helping my daughter rehearse her college interviews, searching summer intern opportunities...Most of the time my daughter directly contacts with Mrs. Shelor for all the task planning and following ups, but Mrs. Shelor also timely informs parents the important dates and status, etc. Everything is well organized, and all tasks are timely completed. My daughter was admitted to Cornell in early decision! We are so happy with the result and appreciate Mrs. Shelor's great help! We will definitely recommend Mrs. Shelor to all the parents having same concerns as us!
Tamar Kushnir: Working Mrs. Shelor was the best decision we made for my daughter's application process. She helped her stay on track with deadlines, and supported her throughout the process. She contributed to reducing everyone's stress levels - mom and dad included! Highly recommend.
Tina Harrison: Working with Mrs. Shelor through my daughter’s high school career was tremendously helpful! She provided structure to navigating everything that needed to be done each year to prepare for college (for which we did not know where to begin). My daughter was admitted to her dream school with the proper guidance on what courses to take to make that happen. She provided resources for every task and challenge (from taking the ACT to writing college essays). Her tools kept my daughter on track through each step of the process. And those tools also helped prepare me for my responsibilities as a parent (from college tours to financial preparation). Her service was extremely valuable and I would highly recommend!!!
Scott Lisson: Pam is an astute, experienced, college counseling professional. I would unequivocally recommend her. She is excellent.
Sury Ram: Mrs Shelor is very patient, helpful and knowlegable. She has good knowledge in detail of which colleges offer which courses, options for AP community colleges and where students need to be focusing.
Morris Walton: I want to double down on the review that Kelly gave. In particular, the part about our (normally reserved) son's perception of the help being helpful speaks volumes. It's impossible to keep up with all the ins and outs of the application process, but Ms. Shelor was able to keep us informed and advised in a most professional way. Thank you!
Kelly Walton: We highly recommend Mrs. Shelor. Our son is incredibly talented in STEM classes and dreads humanities classes so writing essays and applications are also dreaded tasks that are avoided despite reminders from well-intentioned but annoying parents. Mrs. Shelor provided expert guidance to inform his target list of schools and helped him navigate the entire process, establish a task plan, and execute on schedule. He was accepted at all the schools he applied to and ultimately choose NC State.Also, with what I would consider extremely high and rare praise from my son, he said that he was glad he had Mrs. Shelor's help and would definitely opt for her help again if he had to do it over.We are immensely grateful for Mrs. Shelor's guidance and help. It was absolutely worth it for us.
Todd Hartman: Great experience, and highly recommended. Pam is knowledgeable, responsive, and passionate about her work. She held our son accountable for his action items and timeline. Took stress out of the process for us and we learned quite a bit more of the application process which is much different from back in my day of applying.
Elizabeth DeLoache: After reading many positive reviews about Pamela and meeting with her via zoom, we enlisted her services to help us through the application process. She is professional, kind and to the point which is what my son needed. He knew which colleges he wanted to apply to but the application process, in addition to taking 5 AP classes his senior year, was terribly overwhelming for him. She set appropriate deadlines, helped him brainstorm essay ideas, and most importantly encouraged him to tackle the essays independently. I was never involved in the process (unless I had a question). The results were essays that were honest, from his heart, and true to who he is. Additionally, our family enjoyed the process because he, with Pams help, was handling it himself. He applied to 7 schools and was accepted to all 7 including three Honors programs. I am very thankful for Pamela and would highly recommend her.
Amy Newton: As our teenage daughter was planning for college, we found ourselves feeling overwhelmed with the whole process. We were unsure how to navigate through the maze of information. On a recommendation from a friend, we were introduced to Pamela. From our very first introduction meeting, we knew we had met a true professional who would not only help us as parents, but also be a true advocate for our daughter. Our daughter was just accepted to her number one school. This would never would have happened if it were not for the help and guidance from Shelor College Consulting. Our family is thrilled with the outcome. We have continued the relationship Shelor College Consulting to work with our son who is a sophomore. What a blessing for our family to have worked with Shelor College Consulting.
Kim Barnett: Pamela was very helpful during our college application process. She reviewed and commented multiple times on the personal essay, as well as multiple secondary essays. We were looking for someone who understood the intricacies of homeschooling and could help us play up the strengths.
Ann Gray: With my first son applying for college, I had no idea how complicated and involved it was! Things have changed since I applied! Pamela Shelor was a Godsend! She worked with my son to help him focus all his essays and use all his high school activities to help make his applications shine! We are thrilled with the help we got and it was worth every penny!
Aaron: Shelor College Consulting was so amazing in helping my daughter discern and prepare for her college path. Pamela went above and beyond in providing resources and connections which included connecting my daughter with college students in the same major and job shadowing with professionals in the same career of interest. Pamela really listened to my daughter and tailored college research to her interests and criteria. She also provided tips on putting forth the best applications for her top schools and spent time to provide valuable feedback on essays. My daughter felt very comfortable with Pamela as she was very constructive which helped my daughter to grow in confidence and to feel good about her academic readiness. In the end, my daughter was accepted into many high caliber schools including her top school - UNC-Chapel Hill to which she was invited into the Honors College!
Amy Leonard _ Staff - SouthLakesES: Our family enlisted the services of Pam Shelor for our high school sophomore son after going through the overwhelming college application experience alone with our older son. Mrs. Shelor helped to map out high school and community college classes to best prepare our son for the college experience. Pamela’s knowledge of local volunteer opportunities is unmatched. Our son was able to apply, interview and obtain two highly coveted volunteer spots in the science and medical fields to gain experience for his chosen career goal. Our son was looking to combine a specific college academic program as well as continue as a college athlete. We were looking for a needle in a haystack, but with Pamela’s expertise she found multiple schools that were a right fit. Moreover, she found freshman admission schools that we otherwise would have overlooked. Because of Pamela’s expertise and guidance our son is heading to his top choice school with freshman nursing admittance, he will be an Honors College student, earned a large merit scholarship and will be a Division 1 athlete. It seemed like a tall order, but with her help we were able to achieve all the things we were looking for. One final point, Mrs. Shelor goes above and beyond when she is not obligated to do so. Mrs. Shelor even informed us of a college program for our older son that we were completely unaware of that has played a critical part in his success as a current college student. We highly recommend her for your student.Amy and Kevin LeonardParent of Middle Creek High School StudentClass of 2021
Teresa Sonal: Pam is amazing to work with both parents and the child. We reached out to Pam since we were frustrated trying to figure out how to navigate the world of college applications, how to prepare, where to start, how to compare colleges and more... Since we did not have the time to research and even more would not have been confident in our research, we felt it would help to have someone guide our daughter through this process and help build her confidence. Pam did exactly that, provided the much needed hand holding initially and kept communication lines open. She is great at communicating deadlines and kept our daughter on track to submit her applications. She also reviewed all the college essays, gave enough feedback and managed our expectations very well. Overall we're glad we worked with Pam and had a smooth experience throughout this important phase of our lives. Thank you Pam for being diligent and sincere in what you do. We've already recommended your services to friends and family.
Amanda Daniels: Positive:CommunicationPam was extremely valuable to us! She worked hard to help my daughter narrow down her search and reduce the stress that accompanies the college application process! We Highly recommend her!
Debbie McLain: Absolutely amazing! I can’t recommend Shelor College Consulting highly enough! I have tried to write this review many times, but my accolades go on too long.Pamela loves what she does, she’s fully vested in every high schooler, and she’s constantly up to date on what’s going on in the collegiate world of applications. There is no way we could have done this without her.Applying to college has changed so much since we went, that there was no way we wouldn’t have missed some important information that could have denied him his application to various schools. I have a relative this actually happened to a few years ago.My son got into all the engineering schools he applied to except for one deferment (which he didn’t want to attend anyway): NC State, UNC at Chapel Hill, Purdue, Clemson, VA Tech, etc.And finally, as a parent, it was so nice to have someone else to take charge and help us and our son through this process.Seriously, call Shelor College Consulting and get a free consultation. You’ll be extremely glad you did!
Karen Price: Highly recommend Pamela Shelor. Her knowledge and experience helped our son broaden his college vision by helping him open up to new possibilities and helping him define what he was looking for. Going through the process is stressful, but Pamela is calm and steady and she patiently guided him through the process. As a result, he had great choices which all offered scholarships! I honestly don't think we could have gone through this as successfully as we did without her help.
Pamela Green: Pam was always on the ball! She guided us through the complicated process step by step and made it easy to stay on track. Her knowledge, personal experience and attention to detail were life-saving for my HS senior. Thanks Pam!

Pirie proved to have an extensive background and level of knowledge no matter where your child wanted to go to school in the country.

Carolyn Mundorf: Pirie is more than an advisor--he is a supportive coach for both the student and parent, an invaluable knowledge-base of college and academic requirements and statistics, as well as a detail-oriented manager. He is THE resource you want on your team as your student navigates the college selection, application, and admissions process. Two of our college-bound kids have worked with Pirie and our third will as well. He helps the student and parent have reasonable expectations, assess strengths and challenges, keeps the student on task and schedule in regard to application deadlines, and provides a gentle but firm guiding hand along the entire journey.

Applying to and choosing a school are some of the first and most difficult decisions your student makes after years of hard work--you owe it to them to get them the best advisor for college: Pirie McIndoe.

He also helped me write my essays which made the whole process go by with ease! 10/10 I highly recommend Pirie!

My College Help LLC: what do users think?
Nancy Noether: I would highly recommend Alice Hancock with My College Help for support and guidance in the college application process. Alice did an amazing job guiding my daughter in writing essays for her college application. She was professional, kind and efficient in her process. A task that is often overwhelming for high school kids, became manageable and fun because of Alice's input, direction and guidance. My College Help's services are valuable and they resulted in my daughter being accepted to the college of her choice.
Kylee Cockerham: I am so grateful for how Ms. Hancock guided me through the college application process, bringing an organized and systematic approach to the experience. Her step-by-step method provided clarity and coordination within my essays and applications.Ms. Hancock has wisdom and resources that made the writing portion of the applications thoughtful and in-depth. Providing unique tools that aid college essay storytelling, she helps to ensure your application is the best reflection of you and your accomplishments. With her assistance, I’m so thankful to have been accepted to schools I’ve dreamed of attending.
Shannon Yoder: Alice was a huge help to our daughter through the college application process including exploring schools to apply to, to understanding the applications themselves, and to how to best present herself on the applications. Alice broke up a daunting undertaking into manageable steps. We could not have asked for a better experience!
Jennifer Toscano: Alice was a joy to work with. She took all of the pressure off of us as parents and worked our son step by step through the college application process. She is not only knowledgeable, but also resourceful and very patient. Our son finished up the process early, and got accepted at all the schools he applied to. We will definitely work with Alice again with our younger child. Her services are worth every penny.
Netra Thakur: We cannot say enough wonderful things about Alice Hancock. She was able to really connect with my son and took the time to understand his needs and accordingly direct him to making good decisions about his college selections. She kept in good communication with us about their work together. She also gave excellent feedback and direction for his college essays. Her experience as an English teacher was really helpful for us. Partnering with Alice helped mitigate the stress of the college application process. She is a gem!
Amy Gardinier: We are grateful for My College Help. They were instrumental in helping with the college application process for my daughter. Things have changed so much since I applied for college many years ago, it was wonderful to have someone provide insight and assurance along the way. Alice's help with the required writing was priceless. We look forward to partnering with her again with our other daughter.
Vrutika Soneji: Alice helped make the maze of college applications into an easier and more approachable process, and I am forever thankful for that! I started off the college application journey very nervous, but by going step-by-step and personalizing the process, Alice taught me a wealth of college application information and tips that I definitely wouldn't have known if I did the process alone.The writing exercises she walked me through helped me find my voice as a writer. The best aspect of the experience was that I can stay true to who I am throughout my essays - Alice showed me how to make those aspects shine. And Alice's help definitely paid off: I just got into the college I wanted with a scholarship! Alice has been a tremendous help and just been the best through the college application process! I am beyond thankful for her and definitely recommend My College Help LLC for anyone going through the process.
Bennett Kolls: Alice was extremely helpful throughout this entire process. The college application process is daunting, especially for someone like me who hasn’t attending school in many years. She was patient, understanding, and flexible in helping me apply to multiple schools in a short time period. If you have the opportunity I would definitely suggest using her services!
Svea Hulstedt: This last semester I got help with all my college essays from My College Help and it made a huge difference in my applications. Mrs. Hancock helped me organize my application and chose topics for essays I never would have thought of on my own. After submitting my applications, I felt so much more confident than before. She helped me set goals and stay on track and I learned a lot about myself in the process. Highly recommend to anyone, even if you don't think you need help, this will improve your application a lot
jene lee: Alice's guidance and support for my daughter over the college application process has been invaluable. My daughter was recently admitted to her top choice school thanks to Alice's help with brainstorming and writing the essays. Alice was very supportive and encouraging in helping my daughter, and we cannot thank her enough for the effort she has put in to help daughter get into her top school.
Sonali Ratnasinghe: Alice has been excellent in supporting me throughout my college application process! When I started using her services, I did not realize how much it would impact my outlook on the college essay process and my writing. She has a fantastic format to walk through her students not just for the Personal Statement essay (main Common Application essay) and supplementals (mini-essays), but also in the process of choosing scholarships, schools, and what my foci should be per school. Alice has helped me make the college application process a learning experience to learn more about who I am and how to be the best writer. She truly cares about my success and helps me create plans to make sure I meet all my deadlines. Just yesterday, I received my first college decision; I was accepted!! Without Alice, I would be lost on even the little things, including using the Common Application Portal! To all the parents and high school upperclassmen thinking about using a college counselor, Alice & College Help LLC is the way to go! From deciding your college list to writing your essays, she will be that support system you need to make it happen!
Ania Miles: Mrs. Hancock was such a huge help on such an exciting but overwhelming time for a student. She really helps you dive deep into your mind so you can construct the perfect essay. I personally felt I had nothing to write about, but with all the brainstorming we did, I had so many storylines. Mrs. Hancock is the most helpful, encouraging, and kind advisor to possibly have!
Cari Troy: We used My College Help to assist our junior/emerging senior high school son in navigating the complicated steps of college applications and essays. This service far exceeded our expectations! The specialist met with my son regularly and gave him encouragement, useful feedback and assignments to keep him structured and on task with the multi- layer college essay/application process. As a working mom it was unbelievably helpful to me! The to do list is quite long these days and it is easy to lose track of important steps. Due to her help and guidance, my son was able to submit several applications during the early registration window and his college essays captured his best qualities. Better yet, my son seemed to emerge more confident and engaged after his meetings with her.I could not recommend her services more.
Jackie Cavitt: As a senior in highschool, I was overwhelmed by the thought of writing college essays, and I had no clue where to start. But Mrs. Hancock helped me get started on my college essays by meeting with me via zoom and sending me several brainstorming sheets. One week after we met, we zoomed again and she layed out steps for me to take my brainstorming ideas and put them into writing. She not only guides you on your essay writing journey, but she also explains and walks you through every step carefully, provides you with examples, helps you set goals, keeps you accountable, and helps you stay on track so that you can succeed in your essay writing process and do it in an efficient amount of time. With Mrs. Hancock's help, I had brainstormed and walked through the steps of writing my CommonApp essay in a very short amount of time, and by giving me tangable steps to follow, it helped me not stress about how and when I would reach my goals. I highly, highly recommend Mrs. Hancock to any seniors out there wanting to produce strong essays for their college applications, and who need help balancing the task of college applications while also finishing their senior year of highschool.
Momma Cat: Alice has a true heart for people, and she genuinely cares about helping them succeed. She prepares students for so much more than college. Alice was with my daughter every step of the way, guiding, advising and helping her through the process of getting into university. Most importantly, Alice gently showed her how to independently navigate things for herself. Without Alice's services, we would have been lost! My daughter is now thriving at university thanks to the solid foundation Alice gave her!
Betsy Burleson: Alice of My College Help was wonderful in working with my daughter on her college essays. She started from scratch without even an essay topic and Alice helped her brainstorm and come up with an essay topic that really showcased her strengths and personality. It was a beautifully written essay done all by my daughter but with the guidance of My College Help. My daughter was accepted to her top schools and is now enjoying her Freshman year. I know the tips Alice gave her will also be helpful in college. We are using My College Help for our younger son, who is currently a junior and starting the college process.
Marla Nolley: I cannot say enough good things about the benefits of having your child work with My College Help on all things related to writing and college applications. My teen worked with Alice on his college essays and subsequently essays for scholarships. Alice was patient and methodical in helping to ease my son's feelings of being overwhelmed and helped him hone his creativity and writing skills to maximize his essays. She worked with him across 5 sessions and the end product was something completely written by my son that he had confidence in presenting on college and scholarship applications. This also gave him more autonomy in the completion of his college applications. My son was admitted into his top choice schools, and I am confident that his essays made a difference. I highly recommend this service and will use it again with our younger son in the future.

While my friends were just barely turning in their applications before the deadline I had mine done over two weeks earlier.

AKECSGO Master: Positive:Communication,ProfessionalismIt’s a headache to start the process of looking for colleges and how even get started, but with the help of Abby she not only gave great options and insight, but peace of mind.
Maddie Fettig: After meeting with Abby, I feel so much better about the college application process for our son.

Abby broke down the process very clearly and explained the reasoning and the benefits of starting this process early.

Thank you Abby for helping us understand the process and making it much more manageable!!
Katie Blalock: Abby helped make our college application process a breeze. She met with us several times to help us set goals and followed up to make sure we met them and was available at anytime via email to answer questions.

In fact with Abby's guidance the kids were accepted into all of the private schools they applied to. We have some tough choices to make but what a wonderful problem to have! Thanks Abby

CMH College Consulting: what do users think?
M Mian: Dr Hall is amazing. She has been our college counselor for both our children! She will guide you and your child through the entire process and be with you every step on this journey. Her approach to each of my children was unique and individualized.We have been extremely happy, it is money well spent and we could not have done it without her.Thank you Dr.Christine Hall!!!!
Lea Ann Troiano: My daughter really enjoyed working with Christine. She was thorough through the whole application process and was super encouraging. Our eyes were open to a variety of schools which was great since we as parents were initially limiting our daughters options. I highly highly recommend Christine!
Srishti Ekkad: One of the most supportive, greatest people I've met in my life!! Dr. Hall helped me find who I am and where I want.
Lee Fitzgerald: I hired Christine in 2019 to help my daughter and me with the entire process of getting her into the right college. Unlike the process that I went through many years ago, the college admission process has become something extremely complex. The process begins early in high school and requires a depth of knowledge that no parent is equipped with. It involves choosing the right courses in high school – on a fairly strategic level, understanding which ancillary activities carry impact, how and which tests affect admission, or not, and how to access federal, state and private scholarships, grants and loans.Equally critical, Christine established a bond with my daughter and worked with her through each step of the admissions process, including coaching her through the admissions essay.When it came time to choose colleges, Christine’s understanding of colleges across the country was extensive and she had spent so much time assessing and understanding what my daughter’s goals were and “her story’ so to speak, that she matched her with a number of wonderful colleges. When I went to the schools to listen to the admissions staff, the advice that Christina had given my daughter was spot on. My daughter was admitted to all of these colleges, is currently attending her first choice, and was awarded substantial scholarships and grants.I am confident that Christine Hall’s knowledge and guidance was crucial to my daughter’s admission to a wonderful college and hiring her resulted in a life changing experience for me and my daughter. I have the utmost respect for Christine Hall and I would recommend her to any parent or family whose child is preparing to go to college.
Weston Soete: I was fortunate to have worked with Dr. Hall while in high school. Her knowledge and expertise in the college admissions process is remarkable. Through her advising, I was able to broaden my perspective in potential schools and receive offers from top universities with scholarships. I'm very pleased with the university chosen the career opportunities as a result.
Adit A.: Dr. Hall was a great guide to have throughout the college admissions process. She pushed me towards broadening my perspective on the colleges I was thinking about - there are so many schools out there that can be perfect fits for students, even those who would normally only be thinking about the big-name schools. I took her advice regarding high school classes+extracurriculars as well as college applications, and ended up getting great scholarship offers from multiple small but well-reputed universities. I'm very happy with how my academics and career have progressed since selecting one of them.
Aditya Kakkar: Dr. Hall’s guidance has been pivotal in my personal development and professional success. I worked with Dr. Hall during my college application where she helped me find my voice in my essays and find which schools I’d fit in at. Even years after this application process, the skills she taught me and her motivation resonate with me. I was able to go to Georgia Tech on a prestigious scholarship and now I am at the UNC Adams School of Dentistry. None of it would be possible without Dr. Hall.
James Xavier: Dr. Hall worked with my son and daughter on their college application process. She helped them to determine the type of school they would succeed at and then helped them identify the schools that met those criteria. CMH and Dr. Hall helped both my kids get admission into all the great schools they applied to and most of the schools offered my kids merit scholarships. Dr. Hall then helped them make the final decision and pick one of the schools that admitted them to attend. I am also happy to say that my son and daughter are very successful in college thanks to all the guidance Dr. Hall provided during the admission process.
Michelle Wright: Dr. Hall did an outstanding job guiding both my kids as they navigated the years preparing for college admission and finding the perfect college for them. She offered a wealth of knowledge of the various universities, what they have to offer and scholarship opportunities. Dr. Hall’s recommended college list for our kids’ intended major and personality was spot on. My kids felt confident about their college applications and were thrilled to be accepted at their colleges of choice! It was a joy to work with her!
Susan Blakely: Positive:Communication,Professionalism,Quality,ValueDr. Hall worked with both my sons to identify their goals, personal priorities and preferences, and academic strengths. Through CMH, and Dr. Hall’s guidance, they both identified the schools that were best fit and garnered Generous scholarship - they had choices when it came to decision day. Thank you Dr. Hall!!
Cassandra Mehlhop: I knew I needed some help with the college application process for my son, because writing is difficult for him, and because trying to get him to do anything I want him to do can be a challenge. I looked for a college counselor who could hold his hand through the process and take over the nagging for me. What I got, however, was more than that. Dr. Hall did help motivate my son, pushed him to meet deadlines, and alleviated a lot of my stress. In addition, however, I got something much more valuable. She made sure that the process was about him. She helped him to write in his own voice, to produce a unique essay. She talked to him about career options and what he wanted from the college experience, to get a clear picture of which schools would be right for him. In the end, my son chose a top tier university that we never would have thought of putting on his list, and he absolutely loves it. It’s a perfect fit for him and he’s getting the education and experience that I dreamed of for him. He wouldn’t have even applied to that school if Dr. Hall hadn’t insisted that it was right for him. We are tremendously grateful for her insight, knowledge, and understanding throughout the entire college application process. Dr. Hall still checks in periodically to see how things are going, as she truly cares about helping students find their perfect school.
Holly: We needed help finding an educational environment that would be the right fit for our rising 9th-grader. Christine Hall at CMH has been incredibly thorough in terms of guiding us through our search. She really knows the educational landscape, and we particularly like the fact that since she is also an educator, she looks at a student's potential from many angles, and not just grades on a transcript.

BuyEssayFriend.com: paper writing service | Research paper composing | Essay writing: what do users think?
Susan: My workload at university increased because of a science competition last year. This made me forget important papers. This resulted in a lack of opportunity to explore the topic in-depth and create something of high quality. After submitting my first inquiry, I received a response from Buyessayfriend.com. Their assistance was greatly appreciated. I received the paper in a couple of hours. I didn't care if it was good. The results weren't impressive. The emphasis was on logic and literacy. This pleased me greatly. Lastly, I would like to thank you and recommend this service to everyone.

Peter: My English is not as bad as some of my friends have. Even though I am not a native speaker, I can express my thoughts freely, develop discussion lines, and so on. However, I feel that I'm not experienced in editing. I am a future engineer, so I can't deal with stylistic errors and usually write my essays appropriately. Buyessayfriend.com helps me with proofreading and editing. I order this service regularly and always get quick results. The team is highly professional so that everyone from managers to editors works in unison. In other words, I like these guys.
