Every week a couple people's short story or poems are critiqued in an open discussion, and overall you will be scored on how hard you try and how much you show you improve over the semester",

She can be a little scatterbrained at times but this also makes class more interesting. She is a great storyteller and this can be seen in her lectures. She is kind and helpful when giving feedback. Very creative and fun.",
