You have been an awesome professor and have taught me things I didn’t expect to learn in taking this class. Having to write this blog post and reflect on this semester has made me realize I learned more than I thought I had. This has been my favorite class to come to and I have felt so comfortable; that it has made for a more positive learning experience. The time always went by quickly and left me excited and looking forward to coming week after week. I have a 3 hour business class that compared to this one feels more like 6 hours and I can’t wait to get out and go home.

When going out in the world and trying to apply what they have learned from books you have to have be able to work with others and a lot of that comes from “street smarts”

Thank you for an enjoyable and positive learning experience this semester!!
