College Essay Writing Workshop
Students, whether you accomplished a lot on your college essay over the summer or you’re still trying to decide what to write about when school begins next fall, this workshop is for you. Students will work in small groups with others who are at the same writing stage, and will be led by professional tutors and teachers. You’ll cover some do’s and don’ts of college essay writing, work on your writing and spend some time in peer review. You’ll also get an opportunity for individual help and feedback.

Register online at www.newtonfreelibrary.net. This free workshop is cosponsored by Newton Youth Services and is for students. Please bring at least 5 copies of your essay draft if you have one.
