I am an education consultant specializing in facilitating Chinese students to brainstorm, construct and edit their application essays, as well hone their interview skills to reach their dream schools. Due to my background in political science (Vassar College BA) and international relations (Columbia University MA), I also provide academic classes in social sciences like psychology, anthropology, sociology, political science, education and economics, so that students can be more prepared for the academic rigor of college, as well as the background knowledge needed to write their college-entry essays. Both my consulting and teaching job require bilingual, bi-cultural thinking, as well as technical skills such as storytelling, editing, taking feedback, and problem-solving facing a wide range of clientele. I see myself as an excellent learner striving to improve every day. I feel nourished when my clients are empowered through the service I provided, and when their lives transformed. It might be a cliché, but knowledge really is the key. Currently located in London, UK, I still remotely serve many students in China who appreciate my help. I apply for this job so that I can expand my student base, so that I can continue to utilize my writing and communication skills to help knowledge-seeking dreamers like me to thrive./// Expertise Highlighted: ///• Have 7 years of experience advising Chinese students wishing to go to US and UK colleges, with a rich portfolio of more than 100 students and over 25 majors (undergraduate, graduate and PhD); • Have conducted Interview Training seminars (10+ attendents per seminar), in-depth lectures on US schools and majors (800+ people per lecture), and various specialized topics in social sciences, conducted both in-person and online; • Extensive experience in brainstorming, writing, editing, copyediting, and proofreading (writing samples available upon request)• An extensive knowledge on Liberal Art Colleges such as Vassar;• Master-Degree level knowledge on Public Policy and related topics;• Can build and maintain excellent relationships with clients such as students and parents; • Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal in both English and Chinese• Great organizational, time management and team-playing skills
