Thread: A Vikings related essay I'm writing for English.

All teachers are good teachers, it's just that there are a lot of bad students!!! lol jk that is so not true!!

Pretty good...still needs some polishing though.
I'd give it a B...but then I'm a lawyer so it might never be good enough for an A+.

I'd probably give it a B too. I think the ideas presented are good, but the writing is probably average. I posted this 2 minutes after I was done with it, which is probably something I shouldn't do.

Something to remember: You usually want to stay away from refering to either the essay, or yourself.

Is it an English 1121 class, like Freshman Comp., or something more advanced?

It's English 121. And she's never said not to use I, so I dunno. She doesn't seem like a very good teacher though.
:-X

Then you should get an A with the corrected version. Juniata is fussy with writing and the version I gave you would be at the most a B- if the Prof. was in a good mood!
;D

Don't worry too much.
Most profs are pretty generous early in the semester; they don't have a serious load of grading, the weather's nice, and their collegues have yet to devolve into their darker, more evil, 'real' selves.
Now, November, right before Thanksgiving...that's another story.
That's the time of year they strive to take your manhood and slow roast it over a bed of white-hot coals, fizzing and popping (lordy, I'm glad I'm not a student anymore).
