Hi Ma'am. I'm 19 years old in my first year of college taking English Comp 2. Before this year I absolutely hated English. I despised every short story and old-English tale I've ever been forced to read by teachers in the past. Reading the Storm the first time was boring for me. What more can a story about a woman sleeping with a man be about? After finding your videos, not only are my essays better, but my understanding of literature has improved drastically. In fact, I love it. I keep finding myself going back to your videos to further understand a story and say "hey that's pretty awesome and revolutionary of Kate Chopin (or any writer) to write about". Thank you so much for helping me open my mind to the vast and beautiful world of literature!

Hello my name is Megan Bloom. It is currently the beginning of 2018. I just looked at the date this video was publishes so I have no clue if you are going to read this. I just wanted to take this time to write a thank you to you. This has helped me so much for understanding the story itself. When I was reading the story myself I had no clue what was going on in the middle of it. From all the graphic details to what she was actually doing. I am currently a student in high school but I take all my classes at a college near me. (duel enrollment) With that being so it was very unexpected that the story was about an affair. Thank you so much for the help!

Thank you for this in-depth commentary. It's so helpful to hear you covering all the different perspectives of the story and the conciseness that you do it in. Keep going, please. I have listened to 5 or 6 of your different commentaries for essays that we have studied in our Composition 2 class and I always feel so much more prepared when I listen to you first. Thanks.

We just finished class and my Honors class English Comp 2 professor had watched your commentary on "The Storm" and really appreciated your work in dissecting and analyzing it. He said that you brought out more points than he had even considered. He's always encouraging us to watch your videos on essays he assigns us. I just thought I ad that to your already good day. 😊

+DionLaurent1 she's giving an analysis of a story set in the 1800's, the story is called "The Storm" Written by Kate Chopin. This whole video was made to explore the meaning of the story written in question. It's a literary analysis. An analysis is when the book or movie in this case a book is explained in detail, themes and motifs are discussed. The themes discussed are the ones in this story. I hope I clarified some stuff for you!

blablabla.......this is a professor?.......in ten minutes of "analysis" she only makes one point (honor your sexuality, no matter how) and drags that out over and over and over. when I listen to a professor for interpretation of a piece of "literature" I want reference to: historical context, political context, bio reference of the piece to the author, at minimum mention that the story was not published until about seventy years later and why. these are just a few little aspects that pop up in my little 'non-professorial' mind................today's quality of thinking is stuck at the pre-pubescent stage.

Your analysis is full of holes, that you patch on the fly with the most superficial explanations, principally, it's society's fault. If I had a space ship, I would fly it to the moon, but I don't, so I think I'll have an affair instead since you did actually say that the protagonist could not marry the person she would have preferred, so her having a tryst with him is society's fault. Weak. What say you?
