My Journey: BA in English from TESU

[Ideas]

no, i didnt take the Harvard poetry or the Coopersmith one either. I might check those out but tbh I would pay more money not to have to take a poetry class so it wouldn't be my first choice. I'll see what the advisers say about this UL Africa thing and go from there I guess

I considered suggesting you just go for poetry, but you are smart to avoid the HES courses if you don't love poetry. (Coopersmith seems okay to me for someone who doesn't love poetry, if you can get it done fast. Especially anyone who has studied Judaism already.)

These spring HES courses are winding down. I feel like they've been going on for six months, but it's been only three. The quicker summer courses would be more of my style, but two at once would be a lot of poetry.

The courses are incredibly well done, not surprisingly, and classmates are generally so insightful. Most seem to be experienced teachers and/or to have advanced degrees.

I don't think I would have coped well with these final papers if I were young (unless I had a parent/tutor to work with).

I lost a lot of my motivation because I decided again that I probably won't do the English degree, but I may use these grad credits in some way sometime. I'm tempted to do the HES grad cert by taking two courses next year, but by then I may have other plans that are more important. But maybe sometime!

Or I might find some other grad cert that will take these. I'd especially like a writing cert, but then these probably won't count. If anyone finds a good cert (writing or not), please share. I could be interested in a variety of types including a writing instruction cert. I'm aware of one or two writing instruction grad certs that were mentioned before.
