[quote=Anonymous]Is it the topic or her writing? If the topic is something like "How volunteering changed my life" which has been said time and time again is NOT what these kids should be writing about, help her figure out what she wants the hook to be. You can help her to find a topic she is passionate about without just saying this sucks. If it is her writing that is the issue, that is the teacher or mentors department. If she is proud of it, as others have mentioned - pull out some of the good aspects and help her to expand on them. Less of a broad statement about how the essay sucks and more how to make the entire essay as good as the parts you pull out. [/quote]
