Program Evaluation

Students Giving their Opinions

Thank you for letting me join this program. It helped me out a lot and I learned some cool and interesting things. I enjoyed all of the weeks I attended. I would love to join a program like this in the future. Thank you for helping me on my writing skills. This program by far is my favorite!

I loved this program and would recommend it to others. It did help me expand knowledge on my writing and how to improve it!

All the teachers are helpful and are there to help students. The program also offers fun ice breakers that helps us communicate and get to know each other. The essays we did in class helped me better my skills in writing and look for evidence in the book or other sources.

What i liked about the summer writer camp was how we had the workshops. It included a lot of things such as things we don´t learn in regular school. We got to see UCLA campus and talked about it. We also learned about credit and in my opinion that what we have to learn the most about since we need it in the real word.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to take apart in this beneficial and fun program. I really enjoyed learning everyone's story. I hope you guys continue the program next year.
