Write an Outstanding College Essay With 1-On-1 Coaching (45 Minutes)

College application essays are unlike your typical high school essays. Most students have not had much experience writing about themselves in a way that showcases their best qualities along with their writing ability. In my three years of working in admissions at an Ivy League university, I have read about two thousand college essays and supplemental statements that run the gamut from unremarkable to extraordinary. How do you write an essay that stands out?

In this class, I help students anywhere in the college essay writing process, from identifying essay topics to polishing their final draft. 

This class is ideal for a student who:
- needs help brainstorming or selecting essay topics
- is looking for feedback on a completed essay draft
- is struggling with college-specific supplemental essays or short-answer questions
- needs an additional session after completing my four-session course

What you can expect from me:
- I will ask a lot of questions to better understand the student and their goals. 
- I will help the student to identify the theme(s) of their essay, deepen their self-reflection, and make new connections.
- I will point out spelling and grammatical issues.
- I will offer suggestions about the organization and flow of the essay.
- I can help students identify appropriate word choices.
- I will work with the student to determine what their next steps will be and review any updates submitted in a timely manner before class.
