How I teach students to open their college essay I ‘promise’ it’s better than yours— The ‘promise’ is a hook that sets the stage, hinting at the insights and reflections to come. It makes the reader invested in what’s going to happen As college counselors, you can help students craft an opening paragraph that sets up the rest of the story. Here’s an example: 1️⃣Opening Sentence: A chill ran down my spine as I stepped into the brightly lit circus tent. 2️⃣Middle Sentence Describing the Fear: The bright colors and exaggerated features of the clown twisted into a nightmarish vision. 3️⃣Final Sentence (The Promise): How did someone with coulrophobia, or the fear of clowns, end up at the circus? Now you can spend the entire essay unraveling the story By teaching students to create that irresistible opening, you empower them to capture admissions officers' attention from the start.

Do you see my bagel twist tie? 👀 🥯 I lose the twist tie to my bagel bag most mornings It’s the same color as the counter I purposefully buy bagels that have a different color twist tie because I know I’ll lose it simply trying to toast a bagel. I wonder how many are on my counter right now? Just waiting to be found. It really is the perfect defense mechanism for them. It’s like a game of ‘Where’s Waldo’ Trying to navigate the path to college can seem like a twist tie camouflaged on your counter. You start down the path and things are looking good (9th, 10th, even 11th grade) but then that path starts getting hidden by everything around it (12th grade) Wanna know a secret? Getting ready for college doesn’t have hide like a bagel twist tie. You can get your child ready for college IN high school by using resources already at your fingerprints. Wanna know another secret, though? The twist tie was never lost. It was the plastic clip on the left, just out of the camera’s view. 💥 #concurrentenrollment #dualenrollment #collegeinhighschool #collegedebt P.S.

So often can you find a manager trying to correct a behavior and it turns into an indictment of the individual. I’m guilty of having done this too, in the past. It’s a mistake, a BIG mistake. If you want to make a change, and not turnover, help the person YOU hired to correct the behavior! We all run on software, and software can be re-wrttten and updated. Helping your team rewrite theirs when the code is off makes you a leader, not a manager. #BeTheChange #BeALeader #IAmLeader #SyndicateLibrary

Discover how the Shuruart Foundation has been fostering creativity and imagination in children since 2017. In this video, we share an effective technique used in 25 government primary schools in Banaras, where children students are encouraged to draw through engaging storytelling sessions. When children struggle to think of a subject for their drawings, our method involves narrating interesting and detailed stories to spark their imagination. Watch as we explain how these sessions work. This approach not only enhances creativity but also helps children who find it challenging to come up with new ideas. Join us in this journey of creativity and imagination, and see how you can implement this technique in your own educational settings.
