My Mentor

Professors in my program are very accessible to the students. Having mentors close at hand makes the learning process more enjoyable. In a class called Language & Learning, Professor Marshall communicated with the students through the use of audio tapes. We would turn in our papers and he would evaluate our papers via audio tape. Here is his response to my semester work.
