Pay very close attention in class and be very involved in class discussions. If you are struggling, always go see her in your own time and make sure to bring some of your writing for her to comment on.

This teacher is one of the best teachers I've ever had. She is very engaged with the students and keeps the students awake. Doesn't usually give that much homework and can learn a lot from this class.
