Your principal asks you to write a guest column for the student newspaper, to offer your considered opinion about this issue. You will not actually be offering the students sage advice about what they need to be doing and what they need to stop doing if they hope to succeed in college, because as you should know from your own experience, teenagers hate to be preached at or told what is good for them. (In other words, you must avoid dispensing advice.) Besides, although the students will be your primary audience, you will also be letting the teachers and administrators know what you think they have or have not done adequately and what they need to do or to stop doing if they have failed to prepare students for college level work.
You will be tempted to use you, or to write as though you are offering advice, but don\’t do that. Instead, use your own experience or the experience(s) of people you know about as object lessons to illustrate what students should do or not do. Don\’t let your essay sound preachy and bossy.
