I honestly thoroughly enjoy just about everything about this class!  As was said earlier, I love how Kelsey teaches by asking questions.  This is without a doubt the best way to teach, there is even doctrine behind this teaching method, as The Lord always teaches His servants by asking them questions.  Furthermore, her questions always have purpose that get us involved.  I find myself participating in this class so much more than I do in my other classes, and this is not due to any extra effort of my own.  I just find myself naturally more engaged.  The way we discuss new writing strategies and go over work and practice in class is never dry.  But this isn’t just thanks to the teaching methods.  Kelsey’s fun personality helps make the class enjoyable, and it makes it easier for all of us classmates to bring out our personalities as well while we discuss material, which makes us all work together in a fun and productive manner.

I’m sure many will disagree with me here, but I honestly really liked how we had a lot of reading towards the beginning of the semester.  All the reading we had taught me lots, and the new tools I learned from the reading gave me so much more confidence as I began writing.


The only two things I would change about the class are first that we stock the classroom with those spinny chair/desks from the library room, and second that we have blog posts due any night other than Friday or Saturday night.  This is definitely not a big deal, it was just tough for me to remember the blog post the first few weeks since I wouldn’t do it before Friday and I forgot when Friday night and the weekend rolled around.  Hence why I’m doing this extra credit blog post.
