About
In this series, we will cover the depth of College-level English and all college-level writing for that matter. Learners should preferably be taking college-level classes, whether it be Dual Enrollment, Advanced Placement, or directly with a college. Basic English proficiency is required, as these are difficult classes.
I want to emphasize that this series will be rather rigorous. Deadlines are subject to change, as I understand extenuating circumstances. That said, the essays are expected to be written relatively fast, which may make the course seem difficult. Thus, if you are unable to have the essays fully complete when they are expected, please be honest, so that we can manage it together!
The following information is meant to provide a rough, and possibly changeable, outline on the practice that will be expected of learners. Learners will learn to write a literary analysis, a crucial part of college-level writing; they will do so by choosing a poem, novel, or short story of their choice with approval, and will complete a 3-5 page paper. Along with this, learners will complete an annotated bibliography for the sources used on the analysis. Furthermore, students will write a 3-5 page argumentative research paper on a topic of their choice with approval, and another annotated bibliography will be expected.
This session is meant to challenge minds, but I also want to preface that English can be very subjective, which some may consider a "guessing game." My goal is to eliminate as much of this guessing game as possible, and to make you feel confident when you either begin, or continue, a college-level English course.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY
Please do not miss more than 2 sessions. If you miss sessions, I will provide a brief recap on what we did. If you have to miss a session, please send me a message on Schoolhouse beforehand if possible. Since the work is mostly writing and research, which can be done outside of class, as long as essays are submitted, there will be no penalty for missing a class as long as I AM NOTIFIED.

In this third session, we will have submitted our first essay and begin covering our second essay: the argumentative research paper. Students will take time to decide on a topic that they want to research, whether it be a passion or an interest, and will get approval on the topic. Then, we will cover this essay's expectations along with any student's questions. During the week, students will begin their research, gather sources, identify credibility, and form their argumentative research paper.
