Write about a specific person or event that had a profound effect on your life. (My Mother) How did this person or event affect you? (It was in a positive and supportive way. Her and I have always been close). Why does your experience matter? (because people struggle with this growing up, especially in high school) In what ways does your experience connect to readers' lives. Make sure your essay has a clear and specific thesis—this is the point of your title--a main idea that is carried throughout the essay. Remember to type it at the top of the page. Use sensory description, giving details that allow the reader to picture the scenes. Slow down the important moments and think about how your experience connects to readers and to the world in a broader sense.
