In this video, I explain and demonstrate my method for brainstorming and organizing academic essays. I encourage students to practice this brainstorming method to create fuller, more developed essays.

Sample prompts:
Should high school students have part time jobs?
What are the effects of drug addiction?
What are the differences between cities and small towns?
Why is learning a language difficult?
What makes people happy?
Should elderly people live in retirement homes?
What causes students to cheat?

About me: I teach English to immigrants, refugees, and international students in the United States. I love using a flipped classroom model when possible, and that's how I got started making videos. I like to keep them short and specific so that students and teachers can get just the information they're looking for in a succinct format. Thanks for watching!
