on

Here is what’s happening at Options Solutions this week:

Saturday, September 10th (West Vancouver)

Having the ability to express yourself clearly and expressively is essential in today’s world. All too often, however, high school students feel that their writing skills are lacking. They worry they won’t be able to handle the rigorous assignments of the university classroom or the communication tasks of their future careers. They even worry about their current classwork, often expressing doubt about their ability to write well and achieve the grades they need for college admission.

While becoming a skilled writer is definitely a process, the best way to get there is to start. Our Write Well Workshop series is designed to offer students productive ways of thinking about their writing journey and exercises to ease them into the practice of writing and editing. It’s the beginning of a new school year, the perfect time for students to polish their writing skills and start the year off on the right foot with our first session in the series: Grammar & Punctuation.

Saturday, September 10th (South Granville)

Some post-secondary institutions have added a video interview component to their undergraduate applications, such as those required by the commerce programs at UBC, the University of Toronto, and York University, as well as the engineering program at the University of Toronto. Our Video Interview Workshop will review interview requirements and give students an opportunity to practice what they learn.
