Show Notes
About Dr. Pamela Ellis
I founded Compass College Advisory because it felt good to do so. It’s truly my calling.
When we meet, you’ll discover my two passions:
1. Learning
2. Helping kids thrive into successful, happy adults
I’ve been in education long enough to know that it can fuel or fizzle a spirit that wants to go to college to create a successful career and life. Competition, application essays, tuition…can easily get overwhelming to a high school student and their family.
It’s painful to see students get overwhelmed and lose steam…or not take a stand for their skills and talents. With proper guidance, the whole process can be exciting and FUN! I want to help your teen to feel enthused and supported.
What drives my passions?
Practicality, dedication and insight.
I’m here to help you step-by-step with a plan that makes sense for your teen’s dreams. We’ll take that plan and I’ll support your teen to finding a college that feels like home, without overpaying.
You’ll get over two decades of experience in education by your side, committed to inspiring and partnering you.
