About Us

Kathryn's Mission Statement

I believe that students of all ages can earn admission to the school that is the right fit for them.  

Through individualized instruction, my students learn how to perform to the best of their ability on standardized tests 

and how to write powerful and insightful personal statements.  I not only teach my students test-taking strategies and techniques, 

but also help them find their ideal work/play balance, manage anxiety and expectations (their own and those of others), 

and create strong application packages that represent them as the talented students they are.  

When we are done working together, my students feel they have earned their best scores possible 

and are proud of how they have represented themselves on paper.


  • Seniors! Do you need help writing/revising your Personal Statement, UC essays, and/or Supplemental Essays? Kathryn is available to help you!
  • Your personal tutor can help you prepare for standardized tests and/or assist you in the writing and revision of your personal statement(s) for your application to private high schools, colleges, or graduate schools.
  • Our youngest test-prep students are preparing for admission to some of the county’s top private/independent schools with the ISEE (Independent School Entrance Exam). The Bishop's School, Francis Parker, and La Jolla Country Day all require this test. 
  • Students who are planning ahead begin preparing for the PSAT the summer before their sophomore year of high school.  
  • Our greatest success stories come from students who prepare for the ACT the summer before their Junior year. 
  • Students must take the GRE in order to apply to graduate school, the GMAT for Business School, or the LSAT for Law School.
  • Our services are customized to you and your needs, and we have a flexible schedule because we know you are busy.
  • With the pandemic and the necessity for school districts to adopt a "Distance Learning Model," our Associate Tutors (our most successful high school seniors and college students) are available to provide individualized instruction for students — from Kindergarten through High School — who are struggling with their online coursework, study skills, and/or organization. Tutoring sessions can be either in-person (outside and 6 feet apart) or online via FaceTime, Skype, or Zoom. 

Our Expertise

  • Preparing for the  ACT, SAT, PSAT, SSAT, ISEE, GRE, GMAT, and LSAT
  • Helping students expand and/or narrow their list of colleges 
  • Assisting students with any/every stage of the writing process:  from coming up with a good topic, to editing and revising, and to polishing the final draft.
