LOS ANGELES, July 2, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- MY Education Guru is opening the doors of its new facilities at 11500 W Olympic Blvd Suite 350, Los Angeles, CA, 90064, offering private college counseling to high school juniors and seniors.
About 3.6 million students graduated from American High Schools this year. Of those, more than 2.1 million students are expected to apply to America's 4,600+ degree-granting 2- and 4-year colleges. Whether a student's goals are academic or professional, artistic or athletic, the competition to get into one's school of choice without college counseling help can be fierce.
MY Education Guru's college counselors work with individual students who are planning their path to college. We encourage our clients to begin receiving college application help the summer before their senior year. "Even though college search tools make the application process simpler in a lot of ways, the ins and outs of college prep can be complex," says Founder and CEO of MY Education Guru, Yi Chang. Yi and his college preparation team act as personal guides to their students. "We start by first understanding our students so that we can narrow down their college choices. Because we start by first understanding our students, we serve as better college search tools than any search engine out there." We also work with our students to complete a first draft of their college essays before their summer ends. Our college writing essay service encourages this because some students also need to work on essay supplements. Our college counselors help our students plan, so they can avoid stressful last minute edits.
At MY Education Guru, our college counselors are also very attuned to students with special needs. All our students have access to college counselors at their schools, but most counselors are working with dozens—if not hundreds—of seniors every year. Because of this, school college counselors are rarely able to offer personalized college application essay help. Private college counseling teams like ours often work with school counselors as well as their students. Counselor Michael F. stated, "I worked with Yi and his team when I was the college counselor at a private high school and we had a number of students working with him for test prep and college admissions papers. Yi's college counselors were wonderful to work with; they were incredible at checking in with us about student progress and his success with increasing one of our student's test scores completely changed her top choice school."
MY Education Guru's college counselors acknowledge that the recent college preparation scandal has damaged the reputation of their profession and are determined to repair it. As Yi puts it, "Ethical college counselors would never falsify test scores or have a student state they played a sport they didn't. Real college counselors help students make the best choices and present the best version of themselves."
