I’m much impressed with the IYE curriculum for reading and writing. Many of the assignments remind me of the work that I did in middle and high school English classes when I was younger—actually learning English grammar, completing challenging writing assignments, and reading classic literature. Whether a student goes on to become a professor of English, as I did, or simply wants to read and write at the highest level, this curriculum will show the way. I wish our schools still used these methods, but I fear that too few of them do.

I took several reading classes in the first semester of college, and I had a great time. I frequently find myself using some of the techniques you taught me: mostly trying to draw a picture of what is actually going on, and imagining what the author is really saying using visuals. This technique forces me to pay attention and not mindlessly ‘read’. I think one of the most important things I remember you teaching me was the day before the SAT, you encouraged me to keep my self criticism at bay while learning. I was lucky to hear that advice from you at a young age.
