Reviews for the PRO BASIC COURSE

“I started the course pretty close to the deadline, with about three weeks to write the essays. The course is really helpful but difficult to manage if you’re already super busy and cutting it close to the due date. I would recommend starting as early as possible so that you can really take advantage of this resource”

Student

Miranda J.

“The course provided me with an organized way to plan and outline my essays. This made the entire essay writing process less stressful and manageable.”

Student

Caden S.

“I was utterly blown away by Susie's professionalism, knowledge, and ability to guide my son in writing his BYU application essays. The courses were helpful, thorough, and so well put together. The course materials were excellent, and made it so easy to break down this overwhelming task of writing the essays into manageable chunks.”

Parent

Carolyn S.

“Lucas found the workshops to be helpful. Talking through topics and do's and dont's helped him feel more confident about what he was writing. The course really helped him make the essays more succinct and direct. He (we) felt really good about what he turned in.”

Parent

McKenzie B.

“Susie is really good at explaining complicated topics in a simple way. She validated my ideas and increased my confidence, but also gave specific, useable feedback about how to improve. She is fun to communicate with and has a great personality. She is the best online teacher I have ever worked with. If you are unsure if this course is right for you, just go for it. You won't regret it. ”
