My view of literature and what I learned throughout the course.

     I dare not say that my view of literature has changed but rather it has shifted form. For it is not that I view literature in a different way than before but rather, my eyes have been opened and my understanding of it has evolved. I have now learned techniques to analyze a piece of literature that I did not have before I started this course and that will help me in the years to come when I finally move unto grad school. For as long as I can remember I have been reading about all sorts of things, from world issues, to medicine discoveries, to murder cases and fantasy stories. It was always to my understanding that a well-rounded knowledge it is best, instead of just concentrating in one field in particular.  I must also say that thanks to this class I can now be a little more responsible when it comes to meeting deadlines and how important it is to revise your writing many times before you turn it in.

     The class was incredibly charming and filled with different types of learning dynamics that it made it a sort of comfort zone when you arrived and the teacher was always very attentive to her students questions which made the experience all the more pleasant. I do dare say that most of my colleagues were pretty much irresponsible when it came to reading or doing the assignment appointed for the next class even if it was only just reading a short story, and though I am referring to some of my classmates I don’t mean all but I do include myself in them because there was once or twice (okay maybe thrice) in which I didn’t do an assignment. I do not blame the teacher for this though; of course that is not her responsibility. The fault lies in the preposterous way students nowadays attend to class. Totally unprepared and with a downright shameful behavior at that when they are at the classroom.

     We are the nations future and as such we must take charge in giving it our all to learn the things that are being taught to us by our teachers. It is not a matter of passing a course or not, the importance is applying the skills learned in the course in our professional and daily lives. If we continue to be ignorant there is no way we can ever succeed in anything we set our minds to.

P.S. The blog helped a lot to broaden my English vocabulary and elevate it in new heights and I thank the teacher for it.
