Kick-Start Your College Essay!

Summer is a great time to begin work on your college essay! Join Jane Hirschhorn of JBH Tutoring for tips to kickstart your Personal Statement (PS). In Jane's talk, you will learn why the PS should be different from most of the essays students write for school. We will also read excerpts from essays written by Jane's former students, all of whom were admitted to prestigious colleges. This program is for high schoolers, especially rising seniors and their parents. There will be a Q and A at the end of the presentation.
