Dear English 110.01 Student:

Welcome to your first-year writing course!  I personally, think that I have become a much better writer after completing this class.  I will admit I’m not much of a fan of English and I am certainly not a good writer but Leslie made this class really fun and interesting.  When I first found out that our theme was science fiction I had a little bit of a panic attack.  Don’t worry though; it’s really not that bad.  Although the theme is science fiction and before this class I had never watched a science fiction show in my entire life I actually began to enjoy the show I chose. And, blogging 250 words everyday (even on holidays) was a very difficult thing to do at the beginning but now I can write 250 words like it’s nothing.  After finishing Leslie’s class I feel like I am better prepared to edit other peoples work and give constructive criticism and I now understand how important timeliness, relevancy, and compellingness are in a paper.  I really feel as if this course made me a better writer and will continue to help me throughout my college career.  I recommend that you don’t wait until the last minute to write your papers and that you attend every class so that you don’t miss anything important.  I think that you as well will enjoy this class and you will get a lot out of it.  I wish you the best!

Sincerely,

Kristen Taylor
