Testimonials from previous students and their parents
Writing my college essays and supplementals with Ms. Trina Schattenkirk was a deep, introspective journey in which I not only learned how to write a strong and meaningful essay, but I also was able to learn more about myself as a person. I am very grateful to have received her guidance and because of her support, I am now attending a top US university with a full tuition scholarship!

Our experience with Trina has been simply amazing. She was my daughter’s teacher at ASFM and since they met they created a beautiful bond. She is an exceptional teacher and an awesome human being. She is extremely prepared and has a way of encouraging students to achieve their greatest potential, to go beyond and never settle, to discern and always give their best. She was of great help to my daughter with her college application. She wrote the recommendation letter and helped her with the essay, giving her feedback by teaching her both the literary and cognitive tools that she can apply for much more. Most importantly, Trina helped develop her confidence to apply to her dream college (Yale) where she got accepted. We highly recommend Trina in her new tutoring adventure. She is the kind of teacher you always hope for your kids. Having her as a tutor will surely be a positive impact in your kids’ development, way beyond just academics.
