Expectation Letter

Dear ENGL 210,

I would love to have a close connection with you all. I am clear on what I want my objective to be for this course. First, I am more than willing to help you all in improving your writing skills. I hope that you are all open to help me and our peers to do the same. To my Professor, I hope that you’ll help guide us with tips and comments on what we should look for in the text. From myself, I expect to participate whether in the chat or with the mic to give comments or suggestions with honesty. In the end, I hope that this course will go smoothly and hope it becomes one of my favorites just like AP Literature and Composition was to me in high school.

Thank you for your time,

Yaminah D.

Main Expectations

1 September 2021

Dear Class,

This semester we will be introduced to ways of improving our writing. For some of us this may be one of the few English courses that we will take, and for others it might be the first of many. This course will hopefully allow us to be able to get our points across clearly and also analyze things well. Writing is one of the few ways that we can communicate with others, and this course will lead to us becoming better in communicating through a social science lens.

Throughout the course of the semester I hope that we can strive to build a community. Hopefully, we are willing to listen to each other and prevent conflicts from arising. Since no one person thinks alike, we have to be willing to work through those disagreements that may occur. In some classes discussions get heated, and while that can be fun because it shows how passionate people are about a topic, I hope that this class will be a bit calmer, especially since it takes place so early in the morning! Overall, I think that if we can successfully communicate our thoughts I think that we will have a successful semester. 

Another expectation that I have is for Professor Dalton. While it’s obvious that everything can’t be explained concretely, I hope that he is able to guide us through this course so that we can do well in it. Although we need to put in the effort to succeed as well, it’s more assuring when we understand what is needed and wanted from us. Additionally, I hope that our student-professor relationship builds up to be a nice one and that we all become comfortable participating in class.

All in all, I truly hope that all of us can do well in this course, and that we can also learn how to use these new technologies efficiently! Somethings may be confusing right now, but with practice I’m sure that we can get the hang of it!

Here’s to a successful semester,
