College Counseling

Hi! My name is Jenna Jiang and I'm currently a student at Harvard College studying Government. Although Government is a field that I am extremely passionate and interested in, I have another passion for education. For the last two years, I sat on the Illinois Board of Education Student Advisory council where I was elected as an executive council member my first year and then later on as President. Within my position, I learned to write policies and bills where I would advocate for them along with my peers to the Board. In addition to sitting on the Illinois State Board of Education Student Advisory Council, I also sit on two other councils where I was elected by the State Superintendent as the sole student advisor ranging from rural advisory to student equity. Through my experience in education and policy writing, I have been able to help launch and manage educational initiatives helping progress missions from bridging the gap between ESL students and English to expanding access for rural students. In these opportunities, I have been able to meet and interact with so many individuals that has helps shaped my perspective. In addition, I have been a tutor/mentor for the last three years teaching anything from SAT to essay writing. At Harvard, I am apart of the Harvard Civics program where I enter the classroom once a week to teach Civics education. I am extremely open to any opportunities and specialize in crafting college applications and essay help.
