LETS BEGIN to commence, i have enjoyed this class as a whole. the teaching technique in this classroom has been overwhelming. the professor in this class has taken time to assure that all students understand the concept of the lectures. the professor has a strange but unique way of trying to grasp the pupils attention, for example the way the teacher hollers and shouts for everyone to have there undivided attention given to him. i am leaving this class with a meaningful and important information based on communism and capitalism. i have read some swell excerpts and novels. i enjoyed learning about the Mississippi river and reading about the adventures of huckleberry Finn. this was a good meaningful novel.This has been a quiet peculiar experience in this 3rd period. i had fun in this class getting to know my classmates and my morose professor. O .k now to explain the effect the teacher with his undefined attention has scarred me . the hollering that was held in this classroom has caused damage to my poor little heart. lol. j/k. overall i enjoyed the class and teacher he is different from other teachers he tends to show his personality and makes the students feel welcome, making the feel comfortable. SO BRING IT BRING BACK SON. 1. HOLLA AT YOUR GIRL. LOL. AU REVOIR , BON PROFESSOR(FRENCH).= BYE GOOD TEACHER.
SICERELY, SUZANE RIVERA .A.K.A.JUANITA. YOU DAMN PUERTO RICAN.
