Nice email

I got a nice email the other day from a student. She said that she was really enjoying my class. It made my day.

It did not surprise me that she was in my T/TH class -- that class is fairly lively and we get good discussions. Fast forward the next day to my M/W class. Same class size, similar mix of students and it can be like pulling teeth. The only difference is the class starts 90 minutes later. Can 90 minutes make that much of a difference? This week we had guest speakers talking about interships and the person from Career Services made the comment about the difference in class personality. I just need to focus on doing my best and not having different expectations for each class.
