Would anyone be ever so kind to review my essay?
I have to write a 250 word essay on an extracurricular experience for my Common Application. I was instrumental in beginning a youth volunteer club at our school, so I felt like it was a perfect topic to write about. My essay is 249 words long. Let me know what you all think!
Thanks! I was able to put my leadership skills to use in the creation of the Martins Ferry Leo Club. The Martins Ferry Lions Club encouraged students at our school to begin a Leo Club. I was very interested in starting one after learning what purpose they served. The Leo Club is a youth leadership club whose members are dedicated to creating "new and exciting youth volunteer opportunities". Early on in the club's existence I was sworn in as secretary. As secretary, I was responsible for maintaining all of the club’s records and files, including minutes, rosters, and correspondence. I also took on even more projects; I was chairperson for a number of committees ranging from pancake breakfasts to city wide clean-up days. I led the committees by assigning roles to qualified members and setting up meetings so we could discuss our ideas. I also accomplished a lot as an ordinary member of the club. Membership is an important part of any club, and I successfully managed to bring in several new members. I created a Facebook group page for our club and made multiple connections with other clubs from around the world, including clubs from Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Madagascar. I was also responsible for marketing many of our club’s events. After taking on many leadership roles in our club, I was elected president by my peers. Soon after, our club was officially chartered. The Leo Club has been a great platform for me to exhibit my leadership qualities. Ads |
