Great Tutor

Kathryn is a unicorn of a tutor. To say that she “goes the extra mile” would be an understatement. She is a guidance counselor, essay editor, sound boarder, student advocate, and support system, all in one. It is with empathy, humor, determination, and ardent passion that she helps her students navigate their journeys. Like a beacon of light in the dark, Kathryn skillfully guides her students through the application/ admission process from with support and unparalleled dedication. She prioritizes her students and is committed to their success. During my time intensively working with her for several weeks on transfer applications, Kathryn helped me brainstorm ideas, push through writers block, and flesh out my essays — all while building my confidence in my writing, but more importantly, in myself. With thoughtful and insightful conversations, Kathryn helped me to dig deeper and explore every single avenue in its entirety. She focuses on the holistic big picture while helping her student to build their “case for candidacy.” Kathryn leaves no stone unturned. With her yellow legal pad, she attentively jots down every single detail, learning about her student in the process, with the intention of building the best case there possibly can be for her student. Throughout the writing process, Kathryn makes it a point to highlight her student’s voice and ensuring that everything remains authentic and true to her student. With decades of experience behind her and her passion to help students excel, Kathryn is a tutor that I simply cannot recommend with enough enthusiasm. For anyone looking for a staunchly devoted and superlatively stellar writing tutor and college advisor who will support you with warm support while helping you produce the best material possible — you’ve finally found the right woman for the job. It is with all of my confidence that I recommend Kathryn H.

Exactly what we needed - college essay writing

Kathryn was THE perfect tutor. We have tried other tutors and was so happy to have found Kathryn. Kathryn was exactly what my daughter needed to help her complete numerous supplementals and applications. Kathryn was able to add valuable insight and guidance not only for specific supplementals but for her college applications as a whole. Professional and very easy to work with. Kathryn took the time to get to know my daughter to better advise her through the whole writing process from topics to choose to specific edits on essays.

Extremely professional tutor!

Kathryn was amazing in preparing my son for his upcoming university interview. She did a lot of research beforehand and customized the tutoring session and mock interview to his specific needs and the university to which he is applying. Highly recommended!

The best!!

Kathryn helped our son (high school senior) with guidance throughout his entire college application process. We moved to the US from Europe, and were not familiar with the college applications in the US. Our son and our entire family feel extremely lucky to have come across such an experienced, supportive, and exceptional tutor. She has an amazing ability to get to know the students quickly and establish great trust with them. The college application is such a stressful time not only for our son, but also for us as parents. And, Kathryn took the negative stress away and gave us great advice. We feel indebted to Kathryn for her availability. In addition to great flexibility with scheduling the tutoring sessions, she is reachable at any time, whether nights or weekends. We did out best not to abuse her availability, but just knowing that she is there for us at anytime was priceless for our son as a busy student and for us as busy parents, and gave us peace of mind. In Kathryn you will find an honest tutor. She gave us truthful advice for our son’s college list and a frank analysis of his chances at any college on his list. Kathryn was with us throughout the entire process of applications, and also helped our son prepare for his first interview, which was online. She was so amazing, that she was able to have one of her actor friends do a mock interview with our son. His first interview went extremely well, and our son credits Kathryn for the success of his interview. Throughout this process, we have come to consider Kathryn part of our family, our team. We are now patiently awaiting the college admission results. No matter what college our son ends up attending, there is no way we would have done it without Kathryn, no way we would have survived without her. If you are doubting (like we were) whether to get tutoring help for college admissions, after our experience, we wholeheartedly recommend one tutor: Kathryn. Our 5th grade daughter told us that she has already chosen Kathryn for her college applications when the time comes.

An amazing tutor in helping students write the diversity statement!

Kathryn is an amazing tutor. She takes care of your concerns, puts your ideas first, and has superb writing skills to put your ideas into beautiful words. She helped me with the diversity statement. I am a non-native English speaker. But she helped me take care of everything that an international student should be aware of when writing the diversity statement, and taught me some advanced writing words. 作为一个国际学生，如果在写personal statement或diversity statement有困难时，请不要犹豫联系她。

Great Tutor!

Ms. Harlow is not just a mentor who helps every student with their personal needs. She is an educator, listener, college counselor, and so much more. If some one needs help in the college process ,schooling, or life in general it would be silly not to request her. Her work and expertise is not only top of the line quality but also personalized and feels as if she is helping you because she's family. Kathryn Harlow is very personable and can cater a students needs for them to be successful in any situation or learning style. She really does it to help students and make a difference in the world and it really shows. Thank you and I hope future students are as lucky as I am to have gotten to work with you
