Tutoring for Common App/College Application Essay

Tutoring will focus on helping the student write a college application essay, which may or may not be with the Common App.  We can cover the strategy of choosing a prompt, audience and purpose, and using the steps in the writing process.  People often struggle with idea generation.  With a college application, students may also feel like they need to say exactly what the admissions officials want to hear, but that's not the way to go.  I can guide you through all of the steps and help you troubleshoot while you do all the writing.  To be upfront, this is not a way to help you edit your essay, but includes an editing technique that will let you feel confident as you use your brain and eyes to edit.
