I worked with Sue during the Fall of 2013 when she came to help our students with the University application process. I referred many of my students to Sue, because I knew that they would get so much out of their time with her. Simply put, Sue has that ability to make anyone who she is chatting with to feel at ease. When it comes to choosing Colleges, students can often feel overwhelmed, anxious and just simply not knowing where to start. Within the first minutes of the first meeting, students feel heard, supported and even start to get excited about the possibility of choosing colleges that in the end will suit them. Sue has the ability to not only get a feel for each student she works for, but also for truly helping each student brainstorm and investigate a whole host of schools. Then, she is able to help guide students to answering all the big questions, so that they can start narrowing down their list. In the end, students walk away not only feeling incredibly confident that they are going to apply to the schools that are right for them, but also they feel that they have the most incredible coach. One who is not only so well versed in the College application process, but one who is warm, funny, charming, caring and simply AWESOME. And that’s why you should hire Sue Lawson!
