Dear Andy,

So far English has been a much, much, much more enjoyable experience than it has in past years.  I think the main reason for this is the fact that I have made a conscious effort to become engaged in the work and actually show up for class.  I have learned a great deal from my teacher so far this semester about being creative and writing ( Read more... )

Will,
I'm so glad you're dragging yourself out of bed for our class and that I'm not a boring, stiff English teacher. :)

I'm really happy to hear that you're enjoying the course and that you feel like you're learning a lot. You're a great writer, Will, and it's been fun having you in class.

I know the "How I Think" is a tough essay, but understanding the fundamentals (thesis statement, topic sentences, evidence, ethos, pathos, logos, etc..) will get you really far in life (in other courses, at work, in relationship/friendship disputes, debates.. .) It is difficult to write about a topic that you're not totally engaged in or curious about...let that just be your lesson for the last essay. I'm sure you'll do a good job on this one though; you've got a very clear, convincing and compelling voice as a writer.

It's been fun.
