Personal Statement

Herry is the lead coach for the personal statement. With his help, his students have gotten into Harvard, Stanford, Princeton, and many other dream schools.

Ivy League Program

If you are applying to a competitive college, your personal statement will often be the only way to distinguish yourself from other talented students. That’s why many students start as early as the summer to prepare their personal statements. A good application essay takes time, patience, and hard work. If you are willing to put in the time, you will be rewarded.

The personal statement, however, is not a test of your writing ability, which is a common misconception most students have, but a personal assessment of your character, strength, and ambition. We at Marksmen Academy will give you a decisive advantage by drawing out your potential and unlocking your inner strengths. In just a short amount of time you will gain years of experience that will make the admissions officers blink twice when they see your application.

Testimonials

All the time we spent pre-writing, brainstorming, drafting, editing, and revising my personal statement eventually paid off in the end. Herry really opened my eyes up to the world of private universities and for that, I am forever grateful. But more importantly, he believed in me. He pushed me to my limits and challenged me constantly. Now that I am a student at Duke University, I can say that the training I underwent as his student has been extremely beneficial to my collegiate life. Without his assistance, I am almost certain that I would not have been able to generate an essay that I have genuinely become proud of or have been accepted to a school such as Duke. Thank you, Herry, so much for your guidance and support. — Freddie Peng, Diamond Bar High School, Accepted into Duke, Berkeley and UCLA

What makes Herry so effective is his ability to make people dig deep into themselves. He has a talent for finding out what makes students tick - what makes them so passionate in all their pursuits. I really appreciated that he would ask engaging questions, give practical suggestions, and challenge me to rethink how to best portray my authentic self on the personal statement. I would recommend working with Herry because he helps you discover more about yourself in the process of crafting your story. — Tim Huang, Diamond Bar High School, Accepted into Harvard, Stanford and Cambridge
