"Sports fanatics" - My activities have helped me understand the workings of different world cultures

As a student i have hosted an after school club for the elementary division called "Sports fanatics". We usually stay every tuesday and tutor students in various sports such as dodge ball, soccer and skate boarding. Apart from "Sport Fanatics", I am also an avid member of the People to People International (PTPI). PTPI is an association in which we learn about the various aspects of a country ranging for government activities to sports. This association has helped develop social understandings of friends around the world. As members, we are also provided with freedom to develop our own projects relating to a countries interest and means.

These activities have helped me understand the workings of different cultures around the world and has also helped in honing my leadership skills.

Hey, the essay prompt for the common app says

In the space provided below, please elaborate on one of your activities (extracurricular, personal activities, or work experience)(150 words or fewer).

Only choose one. Try and develop your favorite club more. I think you have more of a vested interest in the second one, but choose which ever. It's best to follow instructions.

Oh, that sounds like good advice if indeed the prompt says to choose one activity. Yes, the sports fanatics thing is impressive, though, if it is something that you did as a leader for younger kids. Is that what it was? If so, it is very impressive! Perhaps you can present that activity as part of PTPI, in the sense that is was a sports activity. But make PTPI the topic of the essay. This is all very impressive!

Also, don't forget to capitalize the personal pronoun "I" and days of the week consistently throughout your essay.
