A Review of English 1102 (from My Point of View)
When registering for classes, I intentionally chose
Professor Lindberg as my English 1102 instructor. I had enjoyed her teaching
techniques in 1101 and as I expected I really enjoyed this course.
My favorite
part of this class was writing essays, especially critical analyses. I actually
loved writing these and did not feel that it was a chore. I feel that all the
essays that I've had to write in this class have actually improved my writing,
which will for sure be beneficial in other classes.
I loved class discussions
and appreciated everyone's unique point of view, and Mrs. Lindberg's
professional opinions of each literary work. She was extremely responsive to
questions and gave very constructive criticism and even praise.
I enjoyed
learning more about poetry and how every aspect of the poem (rhyme scheme, word
choice, poem form) contributes to the poem as a whole. I also liked learning about
the different perspectives of analysis because it expanded the ways that I
could look at each work. It also helped
me to understand my peers’ point of view on the subjects even if I did not
agree with them.
I particularly liked the fact that our class size was so small
because it allowed us to more easily have discussions/ participate in
discussions. I know that the small class element will definitely be missing at a university.
Also, It made me sick when I was not able to attend class because I knew
that I would definitely miss out on an interesting discussion. I am not excited
that this class is almost over because I know that I will miss it. I feel that
I am taking a lot (of knowledge) out of this class with me, and truly enjoyed
learning it.
