I enjoy working with young people as well as adult professionals who need help improving their writing skills. Everyone deserves the opportunity to communicate their ideas through well-chosen words.
I believe that expressing oneself in written form is an invaluable life skill, no matter what one's age or where one's interests lie.
"Ms. Brind is an excellent editor, teacher and coach. Rachel is positive, kind and reassuring. She was very patient with me while I wrote 18 individual reference letters for my staff. I highly recommend her."
Karen, Early Education Director
"Rachel was fantastic when she worked on my cover letter and resume. She didn't just edit them, she helped show me how they could be more attractive to prospective employers so I could modify them per job. I highly recommend her."
Paul, Nonprofit Executive Director
"I am really grateful for her help with my college essays. I found her daily writing exercises 'I remember …' really helpful. Her keen eye toward clarity and cohesion turned a very rough draft into a well-written essay. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone looking for help with their writing. 10/10"
Danny, University Student
"I'd spent a lot of time trying to refine and improve my PhD personal statement. Rachel helped me find my creative voice and pushed my statement beyond the threshold I needed by helping me express myself in such a way that merged personal experiences with academic interests. With her help, I was able to get into the program where I wanted to attend."
Misha, PhD Student
"I paid a team to create a website for me, and the wording was very unprofessional. I asked Rachel to edit or rewrite the two pages about the business and work I've done. She wrote it beautifully! I couldn't have been more pleased. She has made me sound like a growing professional in a humble way. Six stars from me if I could!"
Sia, Hospitality Industry Manager
"I wanted to personally thank you for your help over my application process because you made what initially seemed like a chore into a fun activity."
Oliver, Prospective College Student
"Rachel helped me with my college and transfer essays, and I can't thank her enough. She not only made my writing stronger, but also helped me see writing as something I could enjoy. I'm now at a school that feels like the perfect fit, and it's all thanks to her guidance."
Grace, College Student
"Rachel had been extremely instrumental in my son getting his college essays completed. Not only are they done but they are done well! He was highly motivated after each session with Rachel. She gave him lots of tips and made sure he understood what the colleges are looking for. We highly recommend her."
Cynthia, Parent of a Prospective College Student
"Rachel is an incredible writing tutor and has in-depth knowledge about what college admissions committees are looking for. She was exceptional at identifying my personal strengths and helping me craft a story around my profile. It's only been a week since I turned in my applications and I've already gotten interview requests — those schools are T15 and do invite-only interviews."
Leo, Graduate Student
"My son was struggling with his college essay and personal statement. Rachel worked with him and revised what he had. He is feeling much more confident about what he now has. Hope to work with Rachel again!"
Penny, Parent of Prospective College Student
"Lovely, patient, reliable and with exceptional drafting/editing and analytical skills. She's been a lifesaver, helping us meet a very tight deadline on short notice. I highly recommend Rachel!"
Daria, Parent
"Working with Rachel was so amazing! I needed essay editing for a college application with a quickly approaching deadline, and Rachel worked with me to the finish line. Her edits made my writing look spectacular and by the end I was proud to submit what I had written."
Mahita, College Student
"I just wanted to write to say that I got into Yale EA! I'm so excited and I know it will be a great fit. Thank you for all your help — I know it made all the difference!"
Alex, Prospective College Student
"I had the privilege of working with Rachel on a deeply personal writing project. She not only fine-tuned my prose but also acted as a thought partner, challenging me to think more deeply about precisely what my words conveyed. I recommend her strongly to any adult professionals who are looking to hone their writing skills."
