Tam has been amazing with my daughter. We went from not knowing how to approach, navigate and get results to empowering my daughter to drive everything independently. She met with her every week, kept things simple yet very productive; from researching colleges, to essays and applying to scholarship - everything was very well covered. No constraints on number of meetings or unwanted complexities. Tam is very very knowledgeable, reachable and responsive. As parents we were very minimally involved because my daughter felt extremely empowered. We have not got all our results yet but my daughter already got admission from key colleges so we are really happy. I would definitely hire her for my next kid who will go to high school next year.

Reviews
My daughter Sophie always looks forward to her calls with Tam. She comes away feeling more confident about this insane process of applying to colleges. Highly recommend using Tam to help make your entire family relax more than they would normally be able to during this.
Tam has been an asset for my student and myself. I was dreading fall of senior year because of all the coordination that is needed between me a patent and my teenager who is being pulled in many directions. Tam stepped in and helped Lauren focus and we are almost done. Lauren was able to complete early action and has been accepted to her favorite University so far. We are waiting on other acceptance letters as well. I recommend Tam for her patience and understanding. She pushed with kindness and Lauren really appreciated it. Tam is also knowledgeable and recommends universities to match needs of the students.
My son has been working on his college applications with Tam. She has been very thorough and has walked him through each step of the process. She has communicated with me regarding what they have worked on and next steps.
