My adventures in English 101

Well let me start off by saying, this roller coaster ride was lots of fun. I must admit the first time I actually looked at the material I was blown away at the sheer volume of the reading and writing we had to do. Looking back on it I could have chose many instructors for this course, something kept gravitating me towards this class. I am glad that out of all the other classes I chose I chose this one. I felt that the learning experience was so cool. I have always loved Music, so when I saw that a lot of our writing came out of the Music and Culture Book I was thrilled. I know a lot of people didn’t quite like this they felt that it was boring and that they were being forced to do something that they didn’t want too, well in our literatures defense we could have been stuck writing about history or politics, that would have really been boring and I don’t feel we could have easily related to the material.

I’m not sure how many of you actually met with Mrs. Gross but I took the privilege many times. She is one of the best teachers I have yet to encounter, funny I went to Brigham Young,   and some of the best teachers I have met here at this community college. I found Mrs. Gross to be very informative and helpful. I went to her with all sorts of, buts, I don’t understands and oh my god help me with this monstrosity that I’m calling an essay. She was always really nice, but to the point and very helpful. She went out of her way to show me some trades in writing that otherwise I would have never learned.

I really liked the group projects, they I feel brought each and everyone of our thoughts together representing the class as a whole. It was great, not to mention the fact that Calvin and Hobbs broke the Ice for us on more than one occasion. Can’t fail to mention either that those two guys are some of the cutest guys I have ever seen in the cartoon world sort of Snoopy.

I felt that the PDRS could have been a lot more helpful had my peers took it a little more seriously. I t was difficult to produce good essay with out good feedback, For that I’d like to thank Jerusalem again for all her honesty. Literally she improved one of my papers by a letter grade way to go girl J  I would hope that if my peers were put in that situation again that they might be a little more critical.

I had a blast this semester good luck to all my fellow class mates. If you set your mind to it there is nothing that you can not accomplish, even when the chips seem to be low, if you don’t give up and you keep putting your best foot forward you will succeed. For all my classmates that still think they can’t write have faith in yourself, no ones asking you to do the best your neighbor can do, they only ask that you do the best you can do. Good Luck hope we all passed. Catch ya’ll around J Kel
