Every Student’s Path is Unique — Their College Guidance Should Be Too
The college admissions process has grown increasingly competitive, complex, and emotionally overwhelming. With countless application platforms, essay prompts, deadlines, and financial aid options, students and families often find themselves navigating a system that feels impersonal and confusing.
That’s where individualized college coaching becomes essential.
At Teach Potential, we believe that no two students are alike — and neither are their goals, strengths, or stories. Personalized coaching ensures that students receive expert support tailored to their academic profile, interests, and long-term aspirations. From building a well-balanced college list to crafting standout essays and preparing for interviews, individualized guidance brings clarity, confidence, and strategy to every step of the journey.
Elizabeth helped my daughter feel confident and in control during the entire college application process. She not only got into her top-choice school, but did so with a scholarship. We’re incredibly grateful for the support and professionalism we received.

Before working with TeachPotential, I had no idea where to start. Elizabeth helped me organize everything, from my essay to deadlines. I got into five of the schools I applied to — including my dream school!
— Jason Lin, UC Davis Class of 2028
The personal statement was the hardest part for me, but Elizabeth helped me find my voice. She gave honest, helpful feedback that made my essay way stronger. I don’t think I would have gotten into NYU without her.
