Need to write your personal statement and don't want to spend months belaboring it? This course is designed to help students write the dreaded college application personal statement in 2 short weeks. This intimidating task typically creates anxiety for students, so my two sessions will breakdown the process into digestible bits, allowing students to create a piece they can feel confident submitting with their applications. Session 1 will breakdown the prompt and overall goals of the personal statement. Students will participate in stream of consciousness activity to help create a possible menu of topics, and we'll start drafting by using a template I designed to help focus their efforts. Session 2 will focus on writing powerful introductions and conclusions. Students will learn how to think and write introspectively which will show colleges a mature writer's voice. Students will receive some peer feedback during this session and will receive 2 additional rounds of feedback from me (via email) as they continue to revise their essays after the second session.
Metas de aprendizaje
Students will learn the essential elements of personal writing from topic selection through introspective reflection. Personal writing is rarely taught as formal instruction in schools and these skills are not inherent. Students will be taught to find a balance in implementing imagery, writing action, and reflecting on the world around them, all while maintaining clarity by following the conventions of English.
