College Placement Prep

Free Test Day Reminder Sheet

The Placement Essay Coach offers three kinds of support:

Self-guided prep materials for students who want structured essay and reading practice at home.
Custom essay feedback services for students who want individualized written feedback, informal practice score estimates, revision priorities, and parent summaries (as needed).
Complete services covering both essays and reading comprehension.

Some students begin with a self-guided workbook or reading pack and later add custom essay feedback. Others choose a custom feedback option from the beginning.

Self-Guided Prep Materials

Best for students who want a clear plan, original practice materials, and parent-friendly structure without custom feedback.

These are downloadable PDFs students use independently at home. They include lessons, prompts, reading passages, answer explanations, checklists, and reflection pages. They do not include custom essay feedback, informal score estimates, or individualized parent summaries (as needed).

Custom Essay Feedback Services

Best for students who want an outside reader to review the student’s actual writing. These options include individualized written feedback, informal practice score estimates, sentence-level notes, revision priorities, and parent summaries (as needed).

Complete Prep With Feedback

Best for students who want structured practice plus personalized feedback before test day — especially homeschool, dual-enrollment, and independent students who need help turning essay practice into clearer, more organized writing.

Not sure where to start?

Start with the Free Sample Lesson if you want to preview the style before buying.

Choose the Complete College Placement Prep Bundle if your student needs both reading and essay practice and you want the best overall value.

Choose One Essay Review if you want individualized feedback before committing to a longer plan.

Choose the Two-Week Intensive if testing is coming up soon and your student needs focused, structured support.

For specific needs:

Thesis & Paragraph Builder is best if your student understands the prompt but writes vague, underdeveloped, or disorganized paragraphs.

The College Placement Essay Handbook is best if your student needs to understand the test, essay expectations, score-level examples, planning, and test-day strategy.

From Basic to Placement-Ready is best if your student learns well by seeing side-by-side examples of basic, developing, and stronger essays.

What This Service Does Not Include

This service supports student learning and practice. It does not provide ghostwriting, assignment completion, test answers, or work intended to be submitted as the student’s own for a course, test, or official assessment.

Students must write their own essays. Feedback is designed to help students improve their own writing, not to create a polished essay for them.

Work with Me

Weekly review spots are limited. Once the week’s essay slots are full, new submissions may be scheduled for the following week.
