Applying to schools can be overwhelming, but, with the right mentorship, there are ways of making this experience as rewarding as possible.

About sergey
Hello! I'm Serge, and I am a Harvard/Cornell-trained educator with over 10 years of experience in academic advising, college counseling, and creative coaching. After graduating from Cornell with a pre-med degree in Developmental Psychology, I went on to Harvard to pursue a master's and, later, a Ph.D. in Comparative Literature and Visual Studies. I started teaching there and, in the years that followed, received several awards for Excellence & Distinction in Teaching. No matter the subject, I believe in a personalized, holistic education that should be tailored to individual strengths and academic aspirations. My commitment is to help each of my students find their voice, discover their potential, and achieve their goals. I love sharing my knowledge and expertise to empower them at every step along the way. Whether you are writing research papers, preparing for entrance exams, or wading through college applications, I will be delighted to join you at any stage of your process. So! Get in touch, send your questions, and schedule your first session today. I am looking forward to it.
