I feel that during this semester I was able to flex my writing skills. Even though my formatting for these essays were not perfect, the content was fun to evaluate and write about. My current job has only allowed me to write emails or notes about clients, so writing about characters and fairy tales have been a real highlight of this class. Unfortunately, my quizzes were not done very well. Moving forward, I need to have a better study system for understanding literary terms. The skills I developed in this class that could be applied to real world experience would be evaluating stories or other works. Instead of shying away from a story or poem out of fear that I won’t understand it, I’ll be able to tackle it head on.
