College Essay Tutoring

The college essay can feel like a particularly daunting writing assignment. Students are told to be themselves but to edit carefully, to be quirky but thoughtful, to tell a story only they can tell and yet to sum up what are often very common experiences--learning from mistakes, growing up, and overcoming obstacles. Using prompts, free-writes, and sample essays, students will plan, draft, and revise personal statements or supplemental essays that are both authentic and clear.
