Reflections on Writing 150

I have really enjoyed this class. At first, I was skeptical of my abilities as a writer because I hadn’t taken a writing class in quite some time it seemed. However, I loved Sister Elliott’s energy and zest for teaching. I could tell that she really loves doing what she does. In face, in the beginning of the semester, when I was homesick, she made me feel more at home because she reminds me of my own mom. I love when I see people doing what they love. Because of this energy, it made me more willing to put more work into my writing. I will admit, I miss many reading assignments, but I made sure to go back and read them at a later date. I learned many new things this semester, especially with the rhetorical analysis and research paper. I felt like those two units were my strongest, but that didn’t necessarily mean they were the easiest. I loved the challenge of these papers and I loved the feeling of having them done! I really appreciated how much time Sister Elliott took to make sure we understood the expectations for each assignment. I never felt like I was lost or unsure of what was going on. I can see how much Sister Elliott cares about her students and that means a lot to me. This really was a wonderful semester. Great class, tons of learning, wonderful teacher, fun atmosphere, makes for a great learning experience. Thank you Sister Elliott!
