The Benefits of Journalism

Journalism has easily been one of the best classes I have taken at Pennridge. It has taught me so much and I have grown as a person in ways I wouldn’t have imagined. This class is full of activities and assignments that will get you out of your comfort zone and will help you become a better writer and socialize with others. The best part right of the bat is the teacher. Mrs. Gordienko is an amazing teacher who cares about you personally. She takes time to tell you if you are doing a great job and helps you if you are struggling. You can tell she really cares about her students and is very passionate about journalism.

This class also has made me a better writer. Each piece I can tell that I have improved and that I am getting progressively better. This class has brought out my creative side and taught me so much. This class also improves your socializing skills and pushes you out of your comfort zone. You will have to work with your peers often and interview adults, teachers, and students. You make many new friends along the way all while improving.
