제공되는 평가
Since the major focus of this class is social-emotional skills, my feedback will be entirely positive with no spelling, grammar, or stylistic corrections. Yet, this type of class helps students learn to enjoy the creative process, which often leads to an increase in writing and overall improvement. Furthermore, I give suggestions as to how to begin, develop, and expand each work. I also draw attention to their stylistic choices as a poet and/or artist.
