It comes to an end

    So this school year is coming to an end, and summer is around the corner. Looking back on all this, I must say this year was quite memorable. For one thing I never would have imagined that I would be blogging. The class that began all this was nonfiction writing. We spent most of our time in this class reading essays, sharing our ideas, writing essays, and blogging. After this semester I feel that my writing has improved.
    I feel that this class was very useful. Before this class I feel that I had trouble expressing what I wanted to say in my writing. In most of my essays I did not have a lot of details in my writing which made my essay feel lacking something. With a lot of in class writing and advice for my writing I feel that I have made progress with my writing capabilities. Besides that though one thing I enjoyed in this class was writing blogs. I thought that this was a unique way of helping improve our writing and help us be more creative and share our thoughts. I also like our in class discussions about essays and books that we had read. This gave us an opportunity to further share our opinions on topics ranging from serious matters like fear, to fun topics like the potato.
    This English class has been different then my usual English classes. In most typical English classes we usually read a book, then write an essay dealing with the book. However in nonfiction writing the teacher gave us more freedom in the topics that we would write about. This class helped me to write freely and express my writing in a way that I had not  yet done before. This has no doubt helped my writing improve.

Besides the teaching aspect of nonfiction writing class, I also like how relaxed the atmosphere in the classroom felt. Our teacher was quite funny and would come up with spontaneous speeches about random topics like love, which was pretty random, but interesting to hear. She was very lenient with the work that we turned in, giving us extensions whenever we needed them. Not only that, but our teacher agreed to have an end of the year picnic. I felt that this was not only one of the most fun English classes, but one of the most ideal learning environments I could ask for. I am very thankful for the opportunity to take this English class.
