Course evaluation

Course Evaluation eng-101 jgoldfine-fall 2004

· I learned how express myself clearly and more intelligently which has always been a big problem in the past. John was always very helpful in given tips on how to keep focused on the subject at hand and providing the information that the reader would need to know.

· The course did surprise me. I assume it would be like scratching your nails on the black. Instead, it helped me explore and express many ideas and issues that were once very hazy and somewhat confusing. Writing about my dad and exploring my own spirituality proved very enlightening!

· Writing skills and techniques John taught will be extremely valuable not only in the time I’m in school, but also in my future career. It was definitely worth my time and money.

· I thought the course was very good, John was not about pumping out essays for the sake of filling papers with sentences with proper punctuation or many pages. He encouraged thought and exploration of ideas and expressing them coherently on paper. Something, I am sure will be very helpful to me in the future. It was my favorite course this semester.

· To me, there was nothing bad about the course.

· I wouldn’t change a thing if it were up to me!

Part 2:

This semester I’ve written many grafts and essays. They all encouraged thought and expression; I have to say I’ve enjoyed writing them all. Besides instilling self-confidence and pride in my abilities, they helped clarify and confirm emotional issues that still needed self-examination. The two writings that were most significant were about “Hank” my dad and how he has effected my life. And “Spirituality” where I examined and confirmed the nature and essence of my own faith and belief in the principles and morals by which I try to live. “spirituality” also exposed areas in my faith and belief system that still require more examination and clarification, honesty and being true to ones convictions being two.
Overall, the course was very good. It was my favorite class. The End.
