Thank you so much!
I am so glad I watched your videos on sonnets. Not only do i feel more confident about my upcoming quiz, but I also enjoy reading sonnets now.
Many thanks, Carrie. That was very helpful.
Hi Carrie, Thank you so much for your videos. I have subscribed because I went from stressing about sonnets in my literature unit to reading and understanding them with your videos. I actually think they're beautiful now. Please keep up the good work! Will you be doing other books like Austin and Dickens? Or more older Arthurian myths like Mallory's Le Morte d'Arthur or the Pearl Poet? :)
