Course overview课程介绍

Writing Competition - John Locke Essay Competition G8+: Research and Argument at a Competition Level

Grade 8+ | Competition Focus: John Locke Institute Essay Competition

This course prepares serious student writers to tackle the John Locke Institute's rigorous, university-level essay questions across subjects like philosophy, politics, economics, history, and law. Students learn to choose a strong question, build an original thesis, and support it with independent research rather than surface-level summary. Sessions focus on constructing a sustained, well-reasoned argument across several thousand words - including anticipating counterarguments and defending a position with evidence, not just opinion.

Proven results: AAA student Yarabella (Grade 8) completed this 34-hour program and was shortlisted in the Junior Category of the 2025 John Locke Institute's Global Essay Competition - out of 63,328 entrants worldwide - earning an invitation to the London awards ceremony.

What students will develop

  • The ability to research a topic independently and synthesize outside sources into an original argument
  • Long-form essay structure and pacing across a multi-thousand-word piece
  • Skills in anticipating counterarguments and defending a thesis with evidence
  • Academic writing conventions expected at the college level, including citation and formal tone
  • A polished, competition-ready essay suitable for submission to the John Locke Institute

Format: One-on-one private coaching combining individualized research mentoring with structured drafting and revision sessions, building toward submission in the annual John Locke Institute Essay Competition.
