“I already had a rough draft started from my high school composition class.  After talking with Mr. Polochanin about my strengths, interests, and challenges, we decided to use my original essay idea and revise it. Mr. Polochanin offered areas for improvement.  One suggestion was to be more concise and remove unnecessary words, while also using stronger vocabulary. He coached me through this work and his expertise helped me improve my essay and further develop my writing skills. I would highly recommend working with Mr. Polochanin; it was a very collaborative and positive experience.” - Matt
