The class is all about learning things you actually need to know. There's only 1 homework assignment per month and it's so easy I could do it the night before. The class will probably make you feel dumb at first and that's how everyone feels and before you know it you 're writing really good essays that will help you in the future even when you don't see it in the moment. The class is so hyper focused on knowledge on writing but in such a fun way you sometimes forget how difficult it used to be. Learning is definitely very progressive in this class but also at the same time she touches every topic and you really get the chance to learn something that you can use once you leave the class. I sound like a teachers pet but everyone in this class learns whether they like it or not.

Mrs. Brownstein is the best teacher in Oakleaf highschool. That's it. She may not be everyone's cup of tea because she's so bubbly all the time and for some reason they don't like that? But the majority of people can say that Mrs. B helped them in writing and she's good at her job. She looks at learning from every angle that benefits everyone and even will change her lessons based on where people need more work in writing or if she notices that people would benefit more from different types of lessons. She's not just there to have a fun time with the kids and not get work done like a lot of teachers do. She actually works hard to teach them and also build relationships with all her students. & I really appreciated being in her class.
