Everyone  has a story, a passion waiting to be uncovered. For some, the topic is  obvious. For most, however, the story begging to be told is hiding  layers deep. Giving voice to your viewpoint through personal  storytelling provides a powerful lens through which to address the  college essay.
Through a series of one-on-one coaching sessions, Daphne uses exercises  and dialogue to help uncover the story that best illustrates your  student's talents and voice. The right words allow them to confidently  represent themselves to the world.
Daphne specializes in guiding people to identify and clearly articulate  their unique perspective. her ability to authentically communicate with  teenagers creates an environment in which even the most reticent teens  share with confidence. Together they'll identify the best anecdote to  use as a framework, crafting an essay that accurately showcases the  experiences and skills that have honed your student's specific point of  view.
