  • Gratitude - acknowledge the courage that we had to speak up about this topic
  •  Expressions were wide
  • So much more in us then what we show in class
  • Management was sympathetic, willing to listen, and keep their promise, the employees but in more effort
  • Trust is key (IMPORTANT)
  • Depression will increase because of anxiety
  • Montaign created a connection between reader and writer
  • Attempt in French means Essay
  • Read and understand an essay
  • People want to know what we're thinking

  • We write best when it's something we love and care about
  • Anxiety
  • Trying to make yourself understood
  • No try when it comes to writing
