About Contact College Counseling 1:1 SAT and ACT Prep Students

sorry about that đŸ„€

let's start over...

Hey. I'm Bonnie!

I help students get into college without losing their minds.

Real strategy. Real support. No weird pressure. Plus, I’m actually fun to work with, which matters because you’ll be seeing my face a lot. Whether it's SAT/ACT prep or college counseling, I promise I've got your back.

What I actually do

College stuff

  • Select major choices that actually excite you and align with your life goals

  • Build a college list that makes sense for you (not your friend, not your mom’s coworker’s kid)

  • Tell you what matters, what doesn’t, and what’s a waste of time

  • Help with activities, resumes, brag sheets, and what to do each year (so you’re not panicking come senior year)

  • Essay brainstorming + editing that still sounds like you, not a robot in khakis

Test Prep (SAT/ACT)

  • Strategy + practice that’s way more work smarter than suffer longer

  • Learn how to actually use the tools (Bluebook, Desmos, timing, patterns, shortcuts)

  • Understand why you missed questions so you stop repeating the same mistakes and your score actually improves

  • Get simple, memorable ways to lock in content without feeling overwhelmed

  • Use sessions to truly learn (not just grind) so you’re not wasting time you could be spending on activities... or, let’s be real, sleeping

What it's like to work with me

  • I'm direct and honest, but never mean. I won't just tell you what you want to hear; I'll tell you the truth.
  • I am naturally bubbly, so I keep things as fun and light as possible without being annoying or over-the-top. Students tell me I give a big-sister vibe.
  • Sessions are productive
 but not miserable. I keep it moving.
  • I keep things organized and on track so you can focus on school and other priorities.
  • I loathe busywork - both for myself and for you - so everything we do will have a purpose and move you toward your goals.
  • I'm pro independence, so I'll do my best to keep your parents off your back regarding what we're working on.
Work with Bonnie

Take it from these guys...

Addison P.

Class of '26

Working with Bonnie felt like learning from someone who’s both incredibly smart and genuinely fun. She always brought humor into sessions, but I was constantly learning and improving. I just did what she told me to do, and it worked! I earned a 33 on the ACT (top 2% of test takers), even with dyslexia.

She also helped me navigate the college application process for recruited athletes and supported me with every aspect of applying to college. Working with Bonnie was one of the best decisions I made. I was accepted to my first-choice college [Chapman].

Class of '26

Bonnie started as my ACT tutor, but she was so helpful that I also worked with her for college counseling. She taught me exactly what actually shows up on the ACT, which helped me raise my score to a 35. She always knew why I missed questions and how to fix it.

For college counseling, she gave me all the information I needed so I felt confident and never overwhelmed. Applications felt totally manageable, and Bonnie's constant guidance, encouragement, and belief in me made a huge difference.

Sasha C.

Class of '24

Working with Bonnie for SAT prep and college applications gave me confidence at every step. With her support, I scored in the 99th percentile on the SAT, way higher than I expected.

The college app process with Bonnie was straightforward and easy to follow. I was accepted to my first-choice school, Wesleyan! Her mentorship went beyond applications and made a real impact on how I see myself as a student. I now plan to attend med school!

Some questions you may have

Have a question I didn't answer? Feel free to hmu using the button below, and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

I was wondering something else

*Quick note: Because most students are minors, a parent or guardian must be involved for us to proceed. They’ll handle agreements and payment in most cases, so we'll loop them in when the time is right.*

If you’re not sure where to start


Pick the one that sounds most like you:

“I’m overwhelmed and don’t know what I’m doing.”

Cool. We’ll make a plan, and you’ll stop spiraling.

“I’m doing fine. I just want a better outcome.”

Great job! We’ll optimize everything to make it even easier.

“I don’t want my parents doing this for me.”

Perfect because same. I want you driving the process too, so let's make sure that happens.

Ready to reach out?!

You don’t need to have everything figured out.
If you did, you wouldn’t need me.

What you do need:

  • a genuine willingness to improve your SAT/ACT score and/or apply to college with intention

  • the ability to commit time and effort on your end

  • parent or guardian approval, since this is a real investment of time and money

If that sounds like you, you’re in the right place.

By filling out the form to the right, you’ll be reaching out directly to me to learn more about test prep, college counseling, or both. I personally read every message and will get back to you as soon as possible.

Before you hit submit, take a minute to think about whether you and your parents are ready to move forward and learn more. If you are, I’m excited to bring the strategy, structure, and support.

Let's do this!
