Applications to schools often require a personal essay that speaks to the character, interests, passions, and life experiences of the applicant. A strong narrative/personal statement can mean the difference between admission or rejection. In this 2-week crash course, students will learn how to brainstorm, plan, and write an application-ready personal statement for themselves.
(The course material will cater to G5-8 students applying for international/boarding schools and G9-12 students preparing for university applications.)
