Pembroke Scholarship Fund
Every year, I am able to support up to five students, who would not typically be able to afford college consulting, on a full scholarship. I guide these students towards fully funded summer opportunities and the best college outcomes possible.
As a Professor at Afghan Female Student Outreach (AFSO), I teach the annual university preparation course to help students write their applications to programs and scholarship opportunities abroad. Strong college essays can open doors to higher education opportunities by sharing authentic personal stories in compelling ways. This course is designed to help students gain the tools and confidence to write powerful college essays that highlight their strengths, resilience, and unique voices. Through guided exercises, peer feedback, and structured revisions, students produce polished essays tailored to real application prompts. In addition to U.S.-style application essays, students also learn to write a Statement of Purpose (SoP) for universities like those in the UK (UCAS) and Canada, which emphasize academic interest and career goals. By the end of the course, students have a polished portfolio of essays ready for submission.
I offer a free 4-5 hour intensive SAT course online. It features online lectures on content and strategy, as well as recommended practice problems.
This course is available specifically to underserved school communities. Standardized testing continues to favor higher-income students who have access to more resources and prep courses. I would like to help change that by using my innovative online teaching techniques.
