Hello, my name is Holly Maraist. I have a BA in English with a concentration in Literature from the University of Mary Washington. I aspire to be a librarian in the future.

I'm an American living and working in England which means I've had the best of both worlds in terms of English speaking and writing. I have worked as an editor, an ESL tutor and an admissions officer and I hold degrees from Stanford University and NYU (and I'm currently at Oxford University). Thus I am not only very qualified but also very familiar with the graduate application process. I've worked with many students from all over the world and I am committed to the very best customer service.

Hello! My name is Laura and I am a native speaker of English from Canada. I have been working in the ESL industry for the last 10 years and would love to put my skills to work for you.

My expertise is focused in not only editing and polishing writing but also cultivating the skills to become an expert for the future. Coming from a creative background, I excel thinking outside of the box and will make sure that your application stands out against the rest. Travelling and experiencing other cultures has been the true highlight of my life and I would love to help you get your new adventure started!

I'm a former journalist and current public policy analyst with 16 years of top writing and editing experience.

With a varied professional background dealing with the nuances of the English language, I have honed my skills at writing for diverse audiences; writing for the attention of the dreaded university applications officer is a feat that I can help you accomplish.
