BE THE FIRSTYEAR STUDENT WHO CAN WRITE

(ONTARIO) “Try writing like Helen over there. She can give you some tips.” Prof. Claritti’s comment is a bit out there, for the lecture hall. But he means well. He likes Jac’s concepts. When he can find them.
Jac got into his first-pick university because his high school averages soared. – On wings of math and science. Now, these strict, First Year expectations for smooth, clear, concise writing are hitting Jac like a line-drive to the gut. Feedback notes on his lab reports and essays seem ‘blind’ to Jac’s best efforts.
Jac never needed special education. High school teachers consistently ‘tolerated’ his writing because he was a strong student overall (if sometimes a big show-off). His teachers had other issues to address . . .
Teachers never had cause enough to get Jac to practice key strategies. For example:
  -Note-taking while Reading then Outlining.
  -Listen to the ‘sound’ of writing you like.Â
  -Write the Abstract & Conclusion, then fill in.
  -Have a friend read your draft to you, aloud, and without commenting.
Whether you form a study group with stronger writers, hire a private tutor, or qualify for learning disability Access Centre and BSWD for software like Kurzweil and WordQ, you’re among many first-year students who have a wall to climb, just to raise their writing to expected levels. If a disability is truly unlikely, just max-out your campus network by trading your highest skills for writing guidance and arm’s length editing. -And keep your ethics. Even when a friend is happy to trade in theirs.  KMÂ
