January 2004: This begins my journey as a Part-time student at U of T I am full of anticipation and enthusiasm for what I expect will be a challenging and enlightening experience. I am so thankful for the the opportunity to improve my life in this way. Thank you U of T and the dedicated staff and faculty of the Academic Bridging Program at Woodsworth College. I will be majoring in Equity and Sexual Diversity. June 2004: I passed my first course, Contemporary Canada (JWU100Y1S), with flying colours. My instructor was Michael Hume and I would highly recommend both him and the course. He gives tons of handouts for the Literature section. Try to read those books before they are discussed in class because you will get much more out of Mr. Hume's teaching style and the class discussions. For the History and Social Science topics, again try to read the material before it's discussed. If you do not speak French get help in learning how to pronounce the names that come up in the History section. It's much easier to follow along with the lectures if you know who, what and where is being discussed. For the Social Science section, there's an extra credit piece that is up for grabs to the first student who volunteers. It's on the 2nd Wave of the Women's Movement. It requires a small presentation to the class (your overview of the reading material) and then posing your own questions raised by the material to the class and leading a discussion. I did it, I was terrified but it was worth it to get the presentation practice and the extra credit. Mr. Hume is very bright and helpful. Don't be afraid to ask questions during and after class, except on Tuesdays because that's his movie night. Otherwise he is readily available, accommodating and brings humour and imagery to his lectures, making them quite memorable and enhancing the learning experience. Oh...and PUSH the classroom door to open it! November 2004: I'm looking forward to starting Effective Writing (ENG100H1S) in January 2005.
