Weekend Essay Intensives
Need some essay support but not able to commit to weekly sessions? The weekend essay intensives are the perfect way to get a primer on essay writing and get going on those essays. Over the course of a Saturday and Sunday (10am-2pm), the students will learn various exercises and techniques for generating and revising personal essays, and will explore how to capture their unique voice on the page.
All students who complete an intensive are eligible for a discounted 1:1 follow up session with instructor Molly Lyons. Sessions will take place in a conference room at a professional co-working space in Los Angeles, on the following dates:
October 21-22. November 11-12. December 9-10.

Group Essay Classes
UPCOMING Fall 2023 Session:
HER VOICE: Women and Creative Non-Fiction
The latest iteration of the course is specifically designed for female-identifying high school students, focused on developing the voices of young women in creative non-fiction. Selected short readings will include but not be limited to the works of Maya Angelou, Joan Didion, Zadie Smith, and Jia Tolentino.
Each course is limited to 8 students. Across the six sessions, all students will generate, explore and revise multiple personal essays for use in college admissions. There will be short homework assignments given between sessions, however the majority of writing will be done in class.
The course is designed to take a student from A to Z in the essay writing process: it is expected that the students will arrive without knowing the topic they’ll write about, and by the last session, the student will leave with an essay that they are proud of, and, that most importantly, sounds like them.
The group essay class is taught over six 2 hour sessions, in-person in Los Angeles, weekday afternoons/evenings and weekends. The curriculum is designed to feature both group and one-on-one instruction. This next session begins October 1.
Sessions will take place in a conference room at a professional co-working space. There will be classes held in each the following Los Angeles neighborhoods:
HOLLYWOOD. CULVER CITY. SANTA MONICA. SAN MARINO.
