Writing IVc Exam: Suggestions for Successors

Hello successors!!
I think this writing class is very fun. You can learn English and computers. This class is special class! I never experience writing class like this class. This class's system is very unique. I have some suggestions for successors. First, you should keep writing blog posts from big things to small things. You can write anything. Don't be lazy! If you keep writing, your English skills will improve. Second, enjoy using computers. Using computer is this class style. You can't do anything without computer in this class. So, you should be good friend with computer! Computer skills are valuable in society. Remember how to use computer, and enjoy this class!! Good luck!!

My typing skill is very poor before take Writing III and IV classes. I didn’t touch computer much time. After this class started, my typing skill is improved a little. I sometimes practice typing in my home with my computer. I like to practice typing. I want to improve my typing skill more. So, I want to keep practice typing.
