Series Details

About

Many students aspire to enter top universities but face misconceptions about what admission officers seek and how to structure their essays. This series will show successful Ivy League personal statements and guide you on how to create a unique statement to impress admission officers.
Each session will involve an Ivy League/Ivy Plus personal statement example, followed by an analysis of what made that essay successful, as well as a comprehensive overview of how to write an outstanding personal statement for college. At the end of each session, we will also have a Q&A on college essay-writing with any time left over.

You can choose to attend any sessions you want; each session will follow a similar format, but the personal statement example shown in the beginning may differ, along with the Q&A at the end of the session.

About the Tutor

Hi!😊 I'm a high school senior with a passion for adventure, teaching, and learning. I keep active with fencing, tennis, jogging, and hiking and expand my creativity by listening to music, writing stories, and creating digital art. I love exploring fantastical worlds through books and watching crime/legal/paranormal TV series. I strive for academic excellence, and I want to absorb as much information as I possibly can to share my knowledge with others!
