I'm a former journalist and current public policy analyst with 16 years of top writing and editing experience. I've done academic writing, news, features, narrative non-fiction, and public policy white papers. I've also been an international student in the United States, so I know what the undergraduate and graduate application process is like. It's not as scary as it might seem!

As scientist with a PhD from Oxford and one of ZhiShiQ's Senior Advisors, I have helped hundreds of clients make successful applications to graduate/undergraduate programs to some of the world's most prestigious universities: think Cambridge, Oxford, LSE, UCL, MIT, Yale, Harvard, Stanford, NUS, HKUST, and ETHZ.

Hello Student! I'm Susan, and I'm looking forward to assisting you with your academic needs. In the past, I've worked in the education industry in college Admissions, Career Services, and as an Instructor. I'm also a published author, with three non-fiction books to my credit. Currently I am employed as an editor for a publishing company, where I interview authors and then draft manuscripts from the transcriptions for publication in hard copy and as eBooks. I have decades of writing and editing experience, and I'm eager to put my skills to work for you.

Currently enrolled in a Ph.D. program in English at the University of Pennsylvania, I am working on literary research while teaching and completing coursework. I received my B.A. in English and Italian Area Studies in May 2012 from Kenyon College. I graduated Summa Cum Laude with Highest Honors. I have extensive writing and editing experience both through my educational background as an English major, and informally through frequently editing CVs, cover letters and essays for my peers.

As a graduate student, I do a lot of editing. The hardest thing about editing is erasing, and nobody likes erasing something he or she has written - especially if it's something written about your life! I can help you make the decisions based on what employers/admissions like to see. Also, because I study negotiations, I spend a lot of time studying techniques of persuasion, and I can use those techniques to help rewrite your materials so that you sound like the amazing candidate you are!

Hello! My name is Kimberly. I'm an experienced, professional, and friendly advisor who wants to help you achieve your academic goals.

I look forward to helping my clients create their best work! I can't wait to see what we can accomplish together!

MA in Linguistics from the University of Texas-Austin and BA in English from the College of William and Mary in Virginia.

I am a professional ESL teacher and editor. I studied abroad in college and taught English overseas for four years before returning to the US. I am CELTA certified in TESOL, specifically for teaching adult speakers of other languages. I currently work in marketing as an editor for large businesses. I have strong skills in editing and proofreading for a variety of subjects, including English, literature, sociology, anthropology and linguistics.

With a background in Chinese to English translation and teaching English as a second language, I have honed excellent skills in attention to detail and cultivated a passion towards supporting international students. Having completed a year of study with Zhejiang University of Media and Communications, I have gained first-hand experience of the challenges of studying in another language and believe I can support students in reflecting their potential through the application process.
