I had the pleasure of working with Dan Berman Writing, Editing & Consulting on two crucial occasions, and I can confidently say that Daniel's expertise in crafting impactful letters and navigating complex negotiations is truly commendable.

Daniel first demonstrated his prowess when I needed assistance in negotiating a new lease with my business landlord. His ability to articulate my requirements and present a compelling case proved instrumental in not only securing a rent reduction but also obtaining more favorable lease terms. Daniel's strategic approach and attention to detail played a pivotal role in achieving a positive outcome that significantly benefited my business.

The second instance where Daniel showcased his invaluable skills was in assisting me with a business dispute. Facing a challenging situation, I turned to Daniel for guidance in crafting a resolution-oriented letter. His keen understanding of the intricacies involved in business negotiations, combined with his excellent writing skills, helped me navigate the dispute successfully. I am grateful for Daniel's professionalism and adept handling of the situation, which led to a favorable resolution.

Daniel's commitment to his clients is evident in the personalized and attentive service he provides.

I can't say enough about how much Dan helped me! I found Dan on Yelp and used his services for my grad school applications. Dan's skills and experience were evident from the first session. With patience, he guided me through the process of writing a successful statement and resume, willing to help with any aspect of writing necessary. Dan showed great care about our work together and made an effort to not only correct my writing but also explain the rational behind his editing, therefore teaching me to become a better writer myself. I would recommend Dan to anyone, and I can honestly say I feel lucky to have found him!
Thank you Dan for your tremendous help and support.

I found Daniel online when I searched for a professional Resume creator. While applying for an EMBA program at a Business school, I needed a Resume and Personal Statment that would stand out and be unique. Daniel provided OUTSTANDING service, has always been available, and his recommendations helped me enroll in the program. Thank you, Daniel!!!

I came to Dan to request his assistance with my Personal Statement and resume, as I was applying to a Computer Science Master’s Program at an Ivy League institution. Although my grades and test scores were excellent, I knew that a stellar personal statement would be the differentiator in this highly competitive program.

With the application deadline fast approaching, Dan went the extra mile to accommodate my schedule. Dan did his research and conducted a short personal interview, and in a matter of two hours, was able to craft my story and ideas into a personal statement that effectively communicated my vision and intentions for the Master’s Program. I was moved in reading what he had written. His skill as a writer is undeniable.

As a result of Dan’s work with me, I was accepted into the Master’s Program for which I had applied. I was informed by the Program Director at the institution that my personal statement had put my application over the top. I have Dan to thank for that. The feeling of reading the acceptance letter and the value of the opportunities that will come from my participation in this program far exceeds the cost of Dan’s services. Definitely well worth the investment.

Dan was a pleasure to work with. He was very honest with me from the very beginning, which made me push myself even more when in came to my PhD admission essays. He provided me with feedback regarding my essays before even sending a quote to me and prior to any payment. His turnaround time was phenomenal, and he responded to my emails very quickly, despite the fact that I live in a completely different time zone!
If I ever need any editing in the future, Dan will be my go to!

Why is finding a competent writing coach so difficult? For one - exceptional is hard to come by, regardless of field.

Daniel is a phenomenal coach: he is patient, competent, straight-forward, comprehensive, and fun to work with. He takes a holistic approach to the writing process, and can offer assistance far beyond the actual essay. In my case, he aided with the technical aspects of my writing and improved my capacities for persuasive writing (not an easy task!). He also shed light and insights to the PhD process, including strategy and pacing of my communication. Writing a compelling narrative as a mid-career professional was a challenge for me. I obtained feedback from top schools that my personal statement was superior to the competition --- and I owe it to Daniel for helping me think through what to include and what to not (which was the hardest part).

When you elect to work with Daniel, make sure to be rigorously honest about your own limitations. Share your strengths and weaknesses alike. He will work with your spectrum of abilities and make you a more compelling candidate, even in preparation for fellowship interviews. I nailed it - in large part thanks to Daniel.

I am so fortunate to have worked with Dan Berman on my academic applications. It’s been years since being in school and I did not have much guidance or resources to go to. I found him online and through his amazing reviews I decided to give it a try. I am so happy with the results! He completely transformed my application. He spent a great deal of time working with me and I felt like he took it very seriously. It was so important for him to ensure I was satisfied and had the best chance of acceptance. I would highly recommend his services for any of your writing needs.
