Description
Admissions officers read hundreds of applications — make sure yours stands out! This class will help you write your college essays with less stress and more success. Instructors will provide guidance through brainstorming, freewriting and individual feedback. With in-class writing sessions and homework, coupled with timely feedback for revisions, you will learn to craft essays that memorably introduce you. Depending on need, we can focus on the personal essay or supplementals. Whether you have begun writing but are now stuck or you’ve yet to begin, we can help you create winning college essays! Following the small group sessions, each student can receive two more rounds of written feedback on drafts and two private online coaching sessions (20 minutes per session). Please note that this class is appropriate for high school seniors.
Bruce Johnson has a doctoral degree from Harvard, taught in the Department of Education at Bogazici University for 12 years and recently retired from Tufts University near Boston. He has many years of firsthand undergraduate and graduate admissions committee experience.
This class will start on 9/11 and meets 9/12, 9/17, 9/24, and two 30 minute private sessions.
