Don't worry about memorization. It only adds to stress, and will never be required. Focus instead on the development of understanding and of skills, as *those* will be graded.

There isn't an overwhelming amount of work so it's important to do the work you're assigned. You can get credit on anything as long as it's in that quarter.

This class is pretty good, but Vuong's poetry isn't great if you're aroace. Kafka is cool though.

Please familiarise yourself with the different texts utilised within the class, so that you are able to fully participate in class-based discussions. The teacher is excellent, and available outside of class for help, so do not be afraid to ask any questions.

Phenomenal teacher, goes above and beyond to assist students.

He is a huge prankster, but *probably* has a good heart. He wants his students to succeed in class... just not in retaining all of their hair or sanity.

This teacher is amazing and actually helps me enjoy doing school online because I still feel like a participant, it's not super easy because it's an IB class, but he does want you to succeed.
