Dear Dr. Sinno, This is not praising but I genuinely enjoyed your class. Even though I had a few problems with my classmates and we did not really agree on things, my classmates really made me happy in the class and we joked around a lot. As for the academics, the division of the work really taught me how to work step by step and also let me have my time managed. I feel like I need to work on my writing and strengthen it. I have a problem with putting my thoughts into words.

Honestly, I did not like the workload. Sincerely yours, Khadija Ahmad Khadija Ahmad
