The College Counselor Course Bundle

“What I really appreciated about the College Essay Guy courses for counselors was the structure and the pacing. It was clear that Ethan had done the work to discover the best practices and structures. Being presented with so many options for brainstorming exercises is valuable because each one lands with students differently. Knowing Ethan and his work has helped me to grow as a human and as a counselor.”
