2023 Summer Workshops

Got scholars? Get ESSAY CURE.

Stop telling admissions officers about your passion!

 We help you write college essays that make you stand out in an uber-competitive college application process.

We get it.

College Applications Are a Daunting Process


We understand how uncomfortable it feels to have to sell yourself on paper, especially if this is your first time.

Did you unknowingly pick a topic that sends a red-flag to admissions officers?

Are you making one of the 12 most common mistakes?

How many minutes have you invested in staring at the blank page, wondering what to write?

If you start the process with the essay, you're already working in the wrong direction.

If you start your essay with an introduction, you're in the wrong rhetorical mode. 

It's not your fault; academic writing at the undergraduate level is a technical skill. The catch-22 is that most high school students don't do a deep-dive into learning Rhetoric 101 until college — but first, you have to get in!

  

Imagine confidently setting foot inside your senior year with your polished college applications mostly ready to submit  


While your classmates struggle with this daunting task alongside AP classes and SAT/ACT tests, you're free to participate fully in your senior year activities and enjoy Halloween and Homecoming.

Look, we know you know how to WRITE. You wouldn’t be here in front of us if you didn't.

We walk you through the process of navigating college applications. We build on the instruction you've already mastered in high school to teach you about writing at the undergraduate level.

We show you how to select the stories that best represent YOU, yet also showcase qualifications unique to you that admissions officers are looking for. 

In a sea of qualified applicants, your essay can be the big differentiator.  We show you how to confidently separate yourself from tens of thousands of qualified applicants who look like you academically on paper.

 

Here’s what students & parents have to say:

“Hi Christine!!! I got into UVA!! I am so excited to be attending there next fall and this couldn't have been achieved without your help! Thank you so much for everything and my family will definitely be contacting you when younger brother starts the application process! Go hoos !💙🧡

—Paige

Christine helped our son become a better writer by providing the tools and techniques to write effective papers or essays. Her program is highly organized and the content and her instructional style kept my son engaged throughout the process. In particular, Christine was always available to meet with my son to support the planning and development of his college essays and we were pleased that he was accepted to almost all of his college choices. We had such a great experience that we plan to have our daughter work with Christine to help with her college essay process.

—Will (Parent)

“Christine with ESSAY CURE is truly amazing! I would highly recommend Essay Cure to any family with a student heading off to college. Christine is available, punctual and flexible. She really helps her students to think on their own so their unique individuality is represented in their essay. My daughter took the class and without hesitation we will be signing up again when her brother is ready. She is now off to Virginia Tech. We couldn't be more proud! This class is a must, you will not be disappointed! Thank you Christine!

—Molly (Parent)
