Description:

A Perfect Essay is designed so the students, if they wish, can do each assignment over and over again until it achieves perfection. It is not the initial requirement, so don’t let it scare you!! In this interactive and fun class, the student will have at least 20 writing projects through the year. We will focus on essays of all kinds–expository, narrative, how-to’s, persuasive, problem solving, compare and contrast, cause and effect, and narrative. 50 SAT vocabulary words will be studied through the year. We will use debates, discussions, games, grammar lessons, history lessons, and current events, to facilitate the learning experience. When they have completed the class, the students will be ready for their next step, whether it’s Running Start, English 101, ACT, SAT or coming back to me for another year. I anticipate the students will spend four to five hours studying, writing, and memorizing each week.
