Introduction: REMOTE ***Important Note: All sessions with me are done REMOTELY ***. I use a share screen function and a digital writing board. Students can write on the screen as well, if they choose to. Most students really like this style. I am a passionate educator that believes in a holistic approach to helping students reach their academic goals. Over the course of my career, I have helped students significantly improve their school grades, prepared them for standardized testing, consulted on successful college applications, and helped them earn competitive scholarships. Additionally, I focus on boosting each student's confidence, actively working to strengthen their critical thinking skills to become better problem solvers, and help them realize their full academic potential. I specialize in the following areas: - SAT & ACT test prep - College Admissions Counseling -Scholarship award applications - GRE test prep -General Chemistry (all levels) -Organic Chemistry I - Biochemistry - Writing ******SAT and ACT Test Prep****** I love helping student achieve their goals!

Mireille is definitely the best! We needed SAT test prep and Mireille raised my son's score from a PSAT 1200 to a SAT 1420. Mireille is easy to work with, worked around our schedule, and instilled strong and lasting study skills. We now have her helping with AP test prep.

She was great help. I understand when it gets closer to admissions time it can be difficult to handle everything in a timely matter. But, I got along with her well and she is a very relatable person. I paid for a different service prior to this and felt like it was not enough for me so I ditched that and came here instead. She’s awesome at writing and cares about her students/job.

As a college community transfer student, Mireille provided me with excellent counseling on my college application essay. After several sessions and rough drafts, we were able to narrow down and find the most effective essay. I would strongly recommend her services to anyone feeling lost or looking for help with the college admission process.

My daughter, Sabina, scored at 1410 when she first took the SAT in the spring of 2022. She then worked with Mireille intensively for three weeks in July-Aug 2022. By the third week, she was scoring between 1540 - 1580 on practice exams. Sabina has not done any other studying or prep work, or paid for any online services. Just three weeks with Mireille! Sabina says that she really likes how Mireille is direct, efficient, no-nonsense, and really clear in her explanations and guidance. We are thrilled to have found Mireille and are confident that when Sabina takes the actual SAT in two weeks, she will score about 150 points higher than the first time.

Details: 12th grade • SAT1 • Math • Reading • Writing • Remotely (phone or internet)

Mirielle was invaluable during my son's college application process. Her attention and her processes kept him on task which I could not have done without her help. She helped him identify schools he may not have thought to apply to, and she made the application process so easy with regular milestones geared toward crossing the finish line on time. I credit all of this, plus her insights into the right topics for essays and short answers, for my son getting noticed and accepted into every college he applied to. I cannot more strongly recommend her for any child and parent going through this process. In fact, I have recommended her to friends with HS juniors.

Details: Writing essays • Selecting colleges • Completing applications • Preparing for standardized tests • High school Senior • Cadence recommended by professional • Remotely (phone or internet) • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.
