Tredyffrin Library Hosting College Essay Writing Workshop

STRAFFORD, PA – The Tredyffrin Library wants to help your college-bound kid ace their college essay by hosting an essay-writing workshop series in June and July.

Former chairperson of the Conestoga High School English Department Marylyn E. Calabrese, PhD, writing coach and teacher, will lead the workshops this summer.

There are two sessions, each with multiple dates, for the workshop.
