QUALIFICATIONS

Tracy Ganzer Haferling, M.Ed.

​Independent Educational Consultant and Founder

Picture
I have dedicated my 25 year career in education to working with teenagers. The first 17 years were spent in the classroom: nine years teaching English at The Archer School for Girls in LA, a highly regarded independent school that sends its graduates to some of the most selective colleges across the nation, and seven years teaching English at Agoura High School in Las Virgenes Unified School District. 
A move to Orange County prompted my pivot into college consulting. I am passionate about engaging with my teenage clients, as I help them discover their passions and find the college that best fits them. 

Having worked with over 2,200 students and provided feedback on over 8,300 essays, I have the expertise and breadth of experience to help students keep track of application requirements and deadlines and find their voice when writing college essays. As a member of professional organizations, as well as having earned my IEC certificate from UC Irvine, I remain focused on staying current with college trends and data. I am committed to giving my students honest and strategic guidance in the college admissions process.

Why Hire Me?
​​

​I work with families to demystify the college process guiding them through all aspects of the college search and application process.

All of my guidance and recommendations stem from finding the right match for each student I work with. I spend time meeting with students individually and getting to know their preferences. Typically, the earlier I start working with a student, the richer and more productive that relationship becomes. 

I use the data culled from students’ academic and personal profiles as well as from the colleges to guide my recommendations.

College data changes each year, and I am vigilant about getting the most up-to-date information. It is crucial that students understand their admissions chances, and I help students create a balanced list of schools to apply to.
