I started guiding Savannah in her college journey after her Sophomore year at Kadena High School in Okinawa. When junior year started we began college searches. We started created interest letters and ACT/SAT prep. When senior year hit, she was ready! All she needed to do was begin submitting forms, and sending reminders.
Acceptances started rolling in as early as August!
Do you or your child need help navigating the overwhelming journey to college? Inbox me!
Just remember… don’t wait till senior year!

Ever get confused with where to place the apostrophe?
The apostrophe has two uses:
1. To indicate possession
2. To replace one or more letters in a contraction
a) can't
b) haven't
This is where things get tricky!
SINGLUAR possession: the apostrophe is placed after the possessice noun and followed by "s"
The boy's shoes, The cat's meow.
PLURAL Possession: (The rule is different) FIRST you make the noun plural, then place the apostrophe after it!
The four cats' toys, the brothers' room
With plural nouns that don't end in "s," you add the apostrophe +"s" after the noun:
The women's book club, the children's games
DO NOT make the common mistake of placing the apostrophe after the "S"!
Correct: The women's book club
Incorrect: The women' book club
THIS IS A RULE THAT THE ACT EXAM WRITERS LOVE TO TEST!

It is never too early to prepare your child for their standardized tests! College prep has a significant impact on scores!
On a scale of 1-36, my 8th grade son took a full prep test today and received a scaled score of 19!
With his GPA, if he was in High school, he would be eligible for scholarships already!
Our goal for the end of the summer is a score of 25! What's yours!
