Five (5) sessions in which the student goes from idea generation to a final essay. If the essay takes fewer than five sessions, that time can be applied to supplemental essays.
Your student will have the opportunity to work with and develop a trusting relationship with the essay coach– Christina, Rachel, or Stephanie– throughout this process. The essay coach will guide the student through several phases:
- Idea generation and choosing themes that best reflect who the student is and what the student cares about
- Story mapping to find the best ways to “show” not “tell” the reader who the student is and what the student cares about
- Writing first drafts to flesh out stories and link ideas
- Organizing writing into a cohesive story with a clear arc and a compelling beginning, middle, and end
- Editing for content, tone, and clarity
- Fine copy and structural editing by a second member of the team as a final review
Throughout the process we will act as guides and coaches, not substitute writers. Students will be assigned work between sessions. Ideally, sessions are spaced weekly.
The time may be spent in a combination of live meetings and off-line organizing with the coach.
