Open with description.
Not description of you or your reaction or your feelings or understandings! Description of the speaker.
- Quote (direct or indirect) the speaker.
- Describe audience reaction.
- Explain lessons or tales the speaker offered.
Third person only! Third person adds an academic, scholarly tone. It gives you the rhetorical distance (rhetorical means a mode of language or speech) that an intelligent discourse requires.
You are on your way to college where third person will be expected at nearly all times.
Brief. No more than half a page.
Top it with a clever title!
