No red light green light

I really enjoy the benefits that a hybrid English class has over a standard class. I find that the class keeps me constantly engaged in reading and writing as opposed to a standard English class where you read a book then write a paper and then do nothing for a week. This class offers a manageable amount of working that it also not a hassle to do. I find myself writing reading more of the New Yorker, New York Times, and other publications. I have learned to read them more critically and rhetorically. I find that writing shorter pieces of writing more frequently fits my personality better than long involved essays. I also really enjoy the critiques of my peers and being able to read what my peers are writing. Often in school, kids are too involved with only the work that they are doing and never really take a look around to see what others are producing.
