In this episode, Lisa and Susan discuss:How AI impacts the essay-writing process for studentsMistaken beliefs about what makes a strong application essayCrafting essays that truly reflect a student's voice and experiencesHelpful strategies and tools that can assist in writing a strong college essayKey Takeaways: AI should not be used to generate or refine college essays. It can assist with research, but all information must be verified, and the writing must be entirely the student's own.Admissions officers value essays that show a student's true personality and experiences over overly polished or generic ones. They seek real people who will contribute to the college community, not just applicants with strong credentials.Essays should reflect the voice of a 17 to 18-year-old. Unnecessarily formal or complex language can make an essay feel inauthentic; clear and honest communication is more important.Rather than focusing on structure or a single moment, strong essays thoughtfully respond to the prompt, offering meaningful personal insights that reveal the student's true character. “You don't have to create a persona that you think will be appealing to your reader. You need to answer the question and show who you really are.” – Susan KnoppowAbout Susan Knoppow: Focused, incisive, and creative, Susan can turn the most daunting writing challenge into a series of simple steps; she conceptualized and developed the Wow Method for teaching writing.A former executive speechwriter and copywriter, Susan is also a published poet and essayist. She holds a BA in Psychology from the University of Michigan and an MFA in Writing from Vermont College.When she's not running Wow, Susan likes to garden, cook, and go on adventures with her husband and their dog, Luna. She has three adult children who are all talented creative writers as well.Episode References:College Essay Resources from WOW https://flourishcoachingco.com/essays#066 Everything You Think You Know About College Essays Is Wrong with Susan Knoppow: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/066Says Who? by Anne Curzan: https://www.amazon.com/Says-Who-Kinder-Funner-Everyone/dp/0593444094Get Lisa's Free on-demand video: How-to guide for your teen to choose the right major, college, & career...(without painting themselves into a corner, missing crucial deadlines, or risking choices you both regret). flourishcoachingco.com/video Connect with Susan:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wowessayexperts/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/wowwritingWebsite: https://wowwritingworkshop.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/susanknoppow/Connect with Lisa:Website: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@flourishcoachingcoInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/flourishcoachingco/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/flourish-coaching-co

In this episode Lisa and Kim discuss:Secrets of admissions that might surprise students and their families.The myths and confusion surrounding the admissions essay. How to be genuine while writing the admissions essays. Understanding the questions being asked, answering the prompt, and not thinking about what other people want. Key Takeaways: When your student is starting to build their network, first, they should try to be interested before they try to be interesting. In 2023, admissions advisors do not spend time talking about ChatGPT and AI. They have bigger fish to fry, such as the affirmative action conversations happening in the Supreme Court this summer. There are no specific traits that college admissions advisors are looking for in every student. They are looking to get to know your student better and more genuinely. Regardless of the question, encourage your student to answer the prompt and stay true to who they are. “With the college essay, there is so much garbage out there. And so many myths. And so many people don't understand that it's not that big of a thing. You just have to answer the question, show a little bit of insight, and help these people understand who you are. That is it.” – Kim LiftonAbout Kim Lifton: Perceptive, resourceful, and curious, Wow President and Co-founder Kim Lifton can get a story out of anyone; she helped create the brainstorming process used in the Wow Method. Kim's articles on the college essay appear regularly in print and on the web, and her work has been featured in a variety of newspapers, magazines, and online publications. Kim is a former newspaper reporter and corporate communications manager with a BA in Journalism from Michigan State University.Episode References:Get Your Copy of Kim's Book here: https://wowwritingworkshop.com/free-student-book/ Listen to Episode 57 with Andy Borst here: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/podcast/057-college-admission-by-major/ Take Lisa's free quiz “Is your teen ready for coaching?” here- https://quiz.tryinteract.com/#/608984a7a898980017089b21/q/1Connect with Kim:Twitter: https://twitter.com/WowWriting Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/wowwriting/ Website: https://wowwritingworkshop.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimlifton/ Connect with Lisa:Website: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@flourishcoachingcoInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/flourishcoachingco/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/flourishcoachingcoLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisa-marker-robbins/Connect with Lisa: Website: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@flourishcoachingco Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/flourishcoachingco/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/flourishcoachingco LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisa-marker-robbins/
