    Putting the Pieces Together

    Would you drive a car without reading the instruction manual if you had no experience behind the wheel? If you never baked a seven-layer chocolate-tunnel fudge cake would you try without reading a recipe? If you never played football before would you join a game without learning the rules? As an experienced writing instructor and college coach, I’m always amazed by the numbers of students who decide to apply to college without the benefit of any guidance. I see two groups of students when it comes to deciding whether or not using a college coach is a valuable investment.

    The Importance of Hands-On Learning

    Have you ever stopped to consider all the things you do in a day and how you learned to do them? For example, think about tying your shoes. Did someone simply repeat the same instructions to you over and over, or did you have to practice the skill in order to master it? Chances are someone explained how to tie your shoes, but it was the doing that allowed you to master the skill. This is just one example of hands-on learning.
