ROSE HOROWITZ TUTORING

Give your child the tools to succeed!

Ready to Write the Essay that Tells Your Story?

From generating ideas to editing, I work with high school students to develop ​creative, polished essays that help them succeed in the college application process.

Essays are the best platform for students to show how their ​personal stories would add value at their choice schools.

Experience has shown me that it takes an open and ​experienced eye to hone an essay into a finished gem.

I also work with students to help them select reach and safety ​schools for their applications.

Results? For more than 10 years, I have coached students who ​have been accepted at schools including Stanford University, ​Harvard, Case Western, Washington University, Fordham, ​Emerson, Boston College, University of Connecticut, University of ​Vermont, and many other schools.

  • Coaching for the college application process and ​guidance on creating lists of reach and safety schools.

What clients say:

You’ve thought about the college application process for years, right? You'll make a spread sheet, set expectations to meet deadlines, ​make sure that essay is scrubbed to spectacular, and otherwise avoid the silly mistakes of your friends.


Guess what? It’s a minefield and you don’t want to be standing in the middle of it without Rose Horowitz holding your hand.


As an award-winning reporter, Rose understands the greatest enemies of a college essay are lack of detail, lack of editing, and deadlines. ​She helped my son develop an idea for his main essay and worked with him to make it gripping and insightful, capturing his unique ​passion and hopes for the future.


In his supplemental essays, Rose worked with him to highlight different aspects of his activities that together showed the breadth of who ​he was as a person and student.
