Hello! My name is Aaron, and I'd like to work with you. I'm guessing you've got a wealth of talent and experience and you need it to stand out. I've helped many students with exactly that challenge, and they've ended up at Yale, Columbia and UPenn, to name a few stiffly competitive places. I'm confident that, together, we can make your application represent you with just the right shine.

I am an educational professional, translator, and author who has seen academia from all sides. I understand how stressful the application process can be, so I enjoy sharing expertise as well as encouragement with my clients.Although my background is in the humanities, the majority of my clients on Zhishiq.com so far have been in the field of finance, with a significant number in architecture, urban planning, and computer science as well. I love to research new topics, so I welcome the opportunity to collaborate with clients in all academic disciplines.I am a native speaker of American English, but I am well-versed in the written conventions of British English as well. I keep up to date with the latest edition of the Chicago Manual of Style, and I believe in the serial comma.

I am a Senior Advisor here at ZHISHIQ, and I've helped students across a variety of fields get into their dream universities. Being a former international student myself, and having worked with admissions, I understand what it takes to make your application shine. Having run admissions with both an English language school and tech school, I am certain I can help you craft a statement that is polished, professional, and shows off your unique capabilities.

With a background in Chinese to English translation and teaching English as a second language, I have honed excellent skills in attention to detail and cultivated a passion towards supporting international students. Having completed a year of study with Zhejiang University of Media and Communications, I have gained first-hand experience of the challenges of studying in another language and believe I can support students in reflecting their potential through the application process.

I am a professional ESL teacher and editor. I studied abroad in college and taught English overseas for four years before returning to the US. I am CELTA certified in TESOL, specifically for teaching adult speakers of other languages. I currently work in marketing as an editor for large businesses. I have strong skills in editing and proofreading for a variety of subjects, including English, literature, sociology, anthropology and linguistics.

I have a Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. In my research I focus on political ideology from an interdisciplinary perspective. In the course of the past ten years I have spent in academia I have acquired a lot of experience in professional (academic) writing and communication, as well as scientific rigor and work ethic.
