A course that opened my eyes

I've taken online classes before, they were self paced which meant I had to force myself to do the work, needless to say I never completed the classes and had to drop them. But with this class I found myself more and more interested as the course went on. It was a structured course which also allowed me to learn new ideas based on the content and help from reading things that other students had posted. I love reading, but not reading textbooks; however some of the material we were asked to read was interesting like Dumpster Diving, and alot of the material I just found hard to read as I could not relate. This course has taught me to look at things in a different perspective when I read I try and imagine what the author was trying to point out. Although I was only doing two classes this term I found I had to work really hard on getting the readings, assignments, blogs and discussion which takes alot of dedication to complete so much in such a short amount of time. If someone were to ask "would you recommend this class", obviously I would not because you can sit at home in pj's but because it does challenge you and require you to put more focus into the work then other in class courses would. And you are becoming a better, faster typer in the process of all this learning. This course was a real eye opener, and I am not good at english in the least. I have things that I will forever struggle to perfect like my sentence structure as most of what I say is confusing for others, which I do apologize for but I can't change that any time soon since I've spent my life trying to perfect that skill. I do owe a huge thanks to Laurie who taught me so much and has given me a reason to push my self that much harder to be successful in English. I am now enrolled in other English classes not because I have to, but because I actually enjoy it, which is something I would have never said years ago. Laurie, Thank you so much!
