Dear Classmates and Marlin,
About 8 weeks ago I walked into my new ENC class and said to myself after hearing
Marlins rules for attendance “Here we go again” I was not ready. Moreover, Marlin also
was expecting us to run a whole blog, which I’ve never done in my life. I thought this was
going to be a horrible class. But it wasn’t, thanks to you guys and Marlin. Every time
Marlin talked he seemed to never stop talking, but he wouldn’t talk about English. Marlin
would spark up conversations among us and then manged to incorporate his lesson he
wanted to teach that class. Marlin also knew that working in groups was better for the
class, and we got to meet each other that way. As the classes passed I ended up enjoying
the classes I went to and regretting the classes I missed. I genuinely liked our in class
discussions and stories we shared. The best thing from this class however was that
Marlin made me realize how writing can be used in the real world. He accomplished this
by making us pick topics of stuff we were interested in, and then made us use writing
techniques on our interest. Which made it significantly easier to see the purpose of this
class and to understand the material. Overall I’m glad to have been in this class, and
sorry if I annoyed anyone 😉 I hope to see you all in ENC 1102.
Your pal,
Franco L
