7 Steps to Writing Strong Essays in Uni

...the tutorial that started it all

7 Steps is the first digital tutorial I launched 3 years ago, and it's become a staple for any student who wants to master the writing process and use their time wisely! I've had many students tell me the first thing they do when they're assigned an essay is open this tutorial. It's not a one-and-done guide. It's a tutorial you'll keep on your desktop and return to again and again.

In this easy-to-follow tutorial, I set you up with a starting point and then give you detailed directions to the submit button.

The Ultimate Essay Planner

the sequel to my 7 Step Essay Guide

After creating 7 Steps to Writing A Strong Essay, I reached out to a prof who follows me on IG and asked him to share his thoughts on it. In true prof form, he sent me a (much appreciated!) dissertation. He said a lot of great things but - because I am that girl - I paid more attention to his constructive criticism. He mentioned my guide would be even better if I could give students more direction on how to take their research notes and turn them into a solid first draft. Sooo...I got to work and created my Ultimate Essay Planner.

Make It Persuasive

an introduction to academic writing

If I could make my own rules, I'd make this 1 hr video tutorial mandatory for every student beginning university. I've read a lot of first year student essays, and this video flags and corrects all of the amateur mistakes many students new to university writing make. In just one hour, I'll tell you what you need to know to shift your writing from high school mode to university mode - because the reality is the writing expectations and  rules that make you successful in high school work against you in university. 

I'm gonna be honest here. The production quality of this video tutorial is sub-par. I really had no clue what I was doing on the technology end. But, the content of this tutorial is bang-on and it will save you from committing academic writing crimes. Hands-down, this video tutorial is a must for any student looking to write essays that sound more like a scholar and less like a student.

Read So You're Ready to Write

& stop wasting your valuable time making useless notes!

Are your essay & research notes filled with page numbers, quotes, and summaries of things an author said that you *think* might be important? If you're nodding, I can tell you - without hesitation - that this 1 hour intensive video tutorial is for you!
   Your research notes shouldn't be a condensed version of something you read. If you want a stacked set of notes that will actually help you when you sit down to write your first draft, you need to change how you read and make your notes work for you. Your notes should be doing all the heavy-lifting when you sit down to write - not you.

It's like this. Every scholar knows you don't write your essay after you've read 10 articles. You write your essay as you read 10 articles. When you learn how to merge your research and writing phase, when you tie the two together and have them work in tandem with one another, you'll save yourself tons of time, your research will have direction and getting that first draft down on paper will be a lot easier.

Thesis Thinking

master the one sentence that makes or breaks your grade

I've used this tutorial with hundreds of students and the impact it has on their academic writing continues to amaze me! And, that's because it doesn't just tell you what a thesis statement is and how it works. It holds a magnifying glass up to the thinking that underlies a thesis statement and gives you a backstage pass into the mind of a scholar so you develop your own inner critic.

This tutorial isn't just about teaching you how to write a thesis statement - it would be seriously overpriced if that was the case. It's really about giving you a window into the mind of a scholar and a front row seat into the theatre of academic writing so you become your own critic and write clear and compelling essays.
