Hey Madison! I'm super excited to be grouped with you for this course. As a sophomore nursing major, I think I'd be able to learn a lot from you while collaborating. And I'm with you on the whole loving to watch movies and not loving writing ahaha!
ReplyDeleteI think we'll work great together! I also prefer math and science and learning visually over skills such as writing, and I hope I can learn a few things from you since you are farther along in your college career.
