This episode represents part four of four in my epic mini-series with Tutor Ted and in this one I share what steps to take to turn your essay from “just okay” to “great.” Specifically, though, I share:

• What I believe the qualities of a great college essay are
• An example essay that demonstrates those four qualities
• A step-by-step process for bringing more of each of those qualities into your essay
• Lots of examples for all the qualities I discuss
• Even (get this) a step-by-step process for how to make your reader cry
• Finally, some advice to parents and teachers offering essay feedback

FYI: You’ll hear Amie's voice at the start, not mine, since she was interviewing me for this one. Enjoy.
