SUCCESS IS A GROUP PROJECT - and the Prepskills team is here to help!

As an educator for over 25 years and expert in U.S. College Admissions with thousands of relationships, I’m happy to help you build connections and support you on your journey.

Please reach out to me directly, or the Prepskills office should you have additional questions.

Remember, you don’t have to be 100% SURE that you will take this pathway, but your general interest should be enough to TAKE ACTION in this direction – one step at a time. Is anyone ever really, 100% CERTAIN?

Taking these ACTION steps will leave your options open and maximize opportunities.Time is not something you can replace so you do not want to be in a position whereby you did not take the action steps needed to have a CHOICE. For instance, Step #1, learning how to tackle a standardized test like the SAT will serve you well regardless of whether you pursue the U.S. College pathway or not. These transferable test taking skills will be applied to ANY post-secondary option or testing situation, and prepare you for future testing such as AP, IB, LSAT, GMAT, MCAT, corporate/professional exams, and more!!! LOTS of great skills developed by embarking on this exciting journey!

I BELIEVE IN YOU! TAKE ACTION! FIND YOUR FUTURE!

To your U.S. College Admissions success!

Be well,

Joanna
