Description
Class Experience
In this 45 minute private class I will help students understand, and respond to English class essay prompts. We will discuss the question, and try to identify what information the teacher is seeking, and then organize a response. We also discuss how to incorporate relevant quotes and use these to support the argument. We will review the proper format for an essay and discuss grammar concepts as needed. This class is mostly discussion based, but I will encourage the student to take notes...
Students will become more comfortable writing essays by following a five part process - analyze the question, brainstorm answers, prepare an outline, write a draft, and edit. In a typical 45 minute class we can usually discuss steps 1, 2, and 3. The student is expected to write a draft and edit their work after class. Students frequently visit me repeatedly for ongoing help with longer assignments.
Students are expected to complete the draft and final version of their essay after class. Depending on the length of the essay and student motivation, this might take anywhere from 1-3 hours. I am happy to review their work in subsequent classes and suggest additional edits.
This class is mainly discussion based, but students may find it helpful to take notes about our conversation on paper or a computer.
45 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
