Description

In preparation for imminent interviews and college visits, our hosts Tracy and Aliss will give a sample workshop to fine-tune presentation skills and share tips to shine in various contexts. In a relaxed, entertaining and creative atmosphere, we will learn skills to highlight our best and most unique qualities. This workshop will give young adults the tools they need to feel comfortable in a variety of settings.
Please bring one paragraph (with or without drawings) explaining in detail experiences where you felt happy and proud (ie: something you accomplished, discovered, or enjoyed). We will use these as a base to discuss values, interests and skills.
