About Us

Educational Writing Services LLC was founded in 2017 with the goal of equipping students and professionals with their writing needs. We provide college coaching, editorial services, and community workshops.

What Makes Us Different

We differ from essay writing services because we place attention on the individual needs of the writer. Our goal is for writers to learn writing techniques through our feedback method, so they can improve their writing. It is our hope that writers benefit from our editorial services as we work to meet the needs of the holistic writer.

Additionally, we hope to instill skills and confidence within high school, college, and graduate students through our college navigation services and writing workshops.
