I expect this course to enhance my writing skills as well as my communication skills. Even though I am almost finished with college I can see where these tools could have made some of my situations in the classroom or job better. For example, this past year I was Vice President of the Rotaract Club I could have served the club better. I would have been a better Vice President, if the memos and e-mail’s I sent were more of an interest to the audience I was trying to reach.
