I believe that students learn best by doing, so I provide plenty of opportunities for students to write and share their work. I also believe that feedback is essential for learning, so I encourage students to reflect and receive feedback on their work. Students will have a variety of opportunities to interact with me in class. I encourage students to ask questions and participate in discussions. I provide feedback to students on their work. I'll also have other students their age provide feedback. No prior experience or knowledge is required for this class. However, students should be interested in writing and have a willingness to learn.
