Arvonne Fraser's class

Las wedensday, we were given a great lecture by Arvonne Fraser. The lecture mainly talks about the women rights and the movment of women the United States. Arvonne talked about her expericane for many years with helping women to get their rights by starting many organaizations. She had a great carrer and she did a lot for women. Although she has six children, she was able to make a balance between her carrer and her family life. In addition, she worked in many high postions. Arvonne let us ask questions and she had good responses to all of the student questions after the lecture. It was intersting to me when she confidently said that she believs that one day a woman might be the president of the United States, and we almost there.

Two days later , we had a class with Lynne because our teacher Alyessa went to a conference in Denver. At the very beging of the class, we interduced ourselves by telling our names, where we come from and what is our best cities. Arvonne said that she is a retired ESL teacher but she come to teach sometimes because she loves teaching ESL students, which was intersting to me.

After interducing ourselves, we disscused in groups the Lecture, each one mantioned what did s/he like about the lecture. It was intersting to hear others opinion. After that, we took a quiz about the same lecture.

At the end of the class, Lynne said that she enjoyed bieng with us and we thanked her for spending some time with us.

    I'm a little sad I missed Arvonne's lecture. It sounds like it was really inspiring.
