This is the 2 week (8 session)  boot camp version of my own 8-session week-by-week The Elegant Essay: Crafting Descriptive Essays for Power and Punch.  This class has precisely the same content as the week-by-week version of the class. 
***
WRITE TO THE TOP!

Each of us has our own strong opinions. Each of us has our own singular voice. What we need is what all writers need: the precise skills and the hard won confidence to communicate via the written word clearly and coherently, to write with passion, persuasion and power.  The Elegant Essay is the first in a series of classes to introduce learners to all forms of the essay to give every learner the opportunity to become the writer they are meant to be, to in fact "write to the top."  In this 8-week class, one session per week, we will master both the descriptive and the narrative essay forms. 

The Elegant Essay is limited to 6 learners to maximize attention that each learner receives in the classroom. Classes will involve both lecture and interactive student response to illustrative descriptive and narrative essays.  Outside assignments will be given so each learner will also receive personal attention to their specific writing needs.  Detailed responses to written assignments will be sent individually to learners after each session. 

The Elegant Essay classes have been created as a companion to my own Spar Lit Sr: Understanding Great Essays Through Speech and Debate Techniques. It is not necessary to take Spar Lit Sr prior to The Elegant Essay.

The essay is the  backbone of all persuasive writing — from the elementary school  book report to the college essay to the flap copy on published books. This is the  essential core skill of superb communication, one of the key building blocks of ongoing success. 

Learning to think and write well through the crafting of the essay  is the cornerstone as one moves through middle school, high school and college— for Speech and Debate,  for job interviews, and for the workplace.

The Elegant Essay will teach each learner not just how to write well for a single essay, but how to write well for a lifetime.  Once learned, this essential skill belongs to the learner for always. 

Moreover, I will show learners how to tap into and expand on the inner spark that belongs to each and every writer, to transform writing beyond the merely competent into the memorable and never to be forgotten.

It time to learn to delight, to surprise, to persuade, and above all to communicate. It’s time for every writer to become the writer they are meant to be. In short,  It is time to write. 

This class will do the following:

We will examine the links between reading well and writing well, work with both reading and writing exercises to maximize comfort and skill level. There will be writing assignments both long and short all of which will work towards the weekly goal of crafting essays of style and elegance.

Students will read a minimum of two essays per week which we will analyze together in class. Students will also write a complete essay per week and receive immediate personalized feedback on their work sent to them individually,

Classes will focus on discussion and analysis of assigned essays: student work will be assessed via personal communication between teacher and student only. 

 In addition we will cover:

--Strategies for Reading
--Responding to What You Read
--Considering One's Purpose and Audience
