"Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body." ~ Joseph Addison~ |
"The book to read is not the one which thinks for you, but the one which makes you think." ~McCosh~ |
I love reading and writing! The works I read transport me to other worlds. In my discussion-based literature courses, we will explore texts in various genres in a supportive environment. Through learning and practicing the writing process, students will express their reactions to the texts we read, as well as their personal connections to the themes raised in class discussion. A primary objective of this course is to support students in becoming more thoughtful, informed readers and effective communicators.
