Dear Dr. Hartman,

English in college is a lot different than english in high school. I mean this is what I expected english to be like in college, but it took a different toll on me. I didn't mind it so much in high school but once I got here that changed very quickly. It wasn't because of you, or my classmates, I think it's just because I've never had to write papers back to back. Not that that's a bad thing, just that I'm not as good of a writer as I thought. Making up stories and doing poetry was one thing but to have to be able to write papers one after the other and apply them in different ways was more difficult than anticipated. I'm glad I was able to take this class though and learn how to write a better paper. To be able to put forth my all and really try on my english assignments was what I wanted to accomplish, because I didn't try as hard in high school because it all came natural. It was much easier then, which made this class more difficult. I don't think I had a favorite paper that I wrote for this class. Another thing was because I'm not much of a free writer. Most people like to free write, but I like the topic to be picked for me. Then I don't have to waste so much time thinking of a topic to write and how I'm going to go about it. Maybe with having more freedom to write has made me a better writer. All and all I'm proud of the work I put out in this class. Thank you for being a great teacher and helping my writing improve.

Sincerely, David Cruzan
