You-Connor Foley Assignment 26

Before you ask, no, this isn't me sucking up to you because I want better grades, Mr. Logsdon. I'm gonna be completely honest when I say that AP Lang's inherent classroom loop is boring. Write an essay, grade essays, write an essay, grade essays, discuss AP rubric, write essays, etc etc. What made it somewhat fun for me, was you, Mr. Logsdon. Too many teachers I've had before take the teaching itself too seriously. In some classes thats fine. But if you weren't there to talk about pop culture in the middle of class, or show us funny videos at the beginning and end of class, or just joke around while talking about stuff in class, AP Lang could have been my least favorite class. This isn't what I liked or what was fun, I think it was legitimately effective. If I wasn't invested at all in the class because I thought it was boring, I would have probably failed both it and the exam. I wouldn't be able to stand the tedium if not for the comedy. Your dedication to your students and their boredom levels is very admirable, and very appreciated. I'm legitimately considering taking TV and Radio again as a 7th class during my senior project period just because it was so much fun being in your class. Keep being yourself, Mr. Logsdon. You rock.
