"Sarah helped me hone the writing skills I didn’t know I had, which I carry with me to this day. Even now as an architecture student I have found these skills to be indispensable for communication and clarity. She inspired me to find my voice, inspiring confidence in myself and in what I had to say. I am incredibly grateful for the time I was able to work with her, as is everyone else lucky enough to be her student!”

"Sarah instilled in me writing skills that have led me to not only my dream college, but also to having my YA novel signed by an agent. Without Sarah, I wouldn’t have learned how to ask deep questions of others and of myself, how to craft an argument, how to write succinctly and creatively, and most importantly, I wouldn’t have a confidence in my ability to write. I’m so utterly grateful for Sarah’s guidance...I encourage everyone to work with her!”

“When meeting with her about my writing, she helped me to truly convey the point(s) I was trying to get across. This was especially important for writing college essays as they are the only part of your application where you get to candidly and creatively portray yourself. Her passion for her job inspires her students to work hard, truly care about their work and desire to perform well.”

“Conferences with Sarah are always catalysts for improvement because she asks challenging questions to uncover where each writer is coming from, where they want to go with the piece, and the method that they are using in every instance, ensuring that the angle of the narrative is deeply understood. I am so thankful for the opportunity to have worked with her, not just because of the improvement in my writing, but also for the bright personality and positivity she brought into my life.”

“I used to think that there were no words to express the gratitude I have for people like Sarah, but she has taught me how to use them! Writing can be difficult, especially during college essay writing as essays can be personal, but Sarah helps students bring out the best of their ability while still looking out for students’ well being. She goes above and beyond teaching; she is a mentor and an ally to youth.”

"I had the wonderful opportunity to work with Ms. Walker, and I have learned so much from her. She has helped me better my grammar so that I can focus on the idea or message I’m trying to convey in my writing piece. Being bilingual and starting to speak English at a later age has brought its obstacles and disadvantages, but she has really made me feel safe by creating an encouraging environment where I can truly express my feelings through writing."
