A workshop for high school juniors and seniors & their parents/caregivers

Join us for this workshop where Lauren Henry with Take the Helm College Advising will introduce you and your teen to the CommonApp personal essay.

Lauren will help to answer questions like:

• Do you know who you are writing the essay for?
• Can you identify what the point of the essay even is?
• What should you focus on?
• How should you begin?

If you are asking yourself any of these questions (or you have other concerns you’d like to discuss), then this is the workshop for you.

About our Presenter: After working in the advertising industry and gaining years of experience as a freelance writer (with a three-year circumnavigation on board a 36’ sailboat thrown in there), Lauren Henry decided to transition to college counseling after helping family friends and her own kids navigate their applications. She loves working with high school students; discovering their passions, identifying schools where they will thrive, and guiding them through the ins and outs of the process. Her approach to college counseling centers on empowering students to take control of their futures. She received her BA from Tufts University, earned a Certificate in College Counseling with Distinction from UCLA, and is a certified WOW College Essay coach.
