Don't worry too much ... the payoff is worth the struggle

I wanted to post here to see if you found it, and to let you know (yes, you, the one reading this) that you're doing fine. So many of you emailed me to say that you're worried or unsure -- how are you going to survive this class, you know nothing about blogs, but you like the idea of a hybrid course and I am here to say...

Take a deep breath, even the many of you who are taking more than one summer course. (And promise yourself next time to take summer classes one at a time if you can, so you don't go nuts). You will get through this, and I will get through this, and things that aren't working, we'll fix. Remember, the goal is to leave after six weeks knowing more about reading than you do now, and to do the very best you can in learning it.

That's all.

Keep breathing.
