"Academic Interests" Essay for Scholarships?

Hi, I’m applying to scholarships and almost all of them ask “What are your academic interests and how do you see them shaping your future?” or something along those lines. I really want to write a memorable, creative essay, but I’m at a loss. This is my first time writing any kind of essay like this. Any tips? Thanks!!!

Can you meet with your high school English teacher for brainstorming?
