Time and time again, students and parents cite the writing of the essay as the most stressful part of the college application process. But it doesn't have to be that way. By understanding the purpose of the essay, key elements, and common mistakes, you can ease the stress. Through an understanding of adolescent development, we will explore why the essay-writing process can be difficult for many students. Parents will leave with a deeper understanding of how best to support their children and students will gain a newfound confidence in their essay writing abilities. Participants will also receive an "essay writing timeline" for regular decision, early action, and early decision deadlines.
Notes:
This course is designed for parents, guardians and students. One registration per household.
Fee: | $34.00 |
