Martha has always been a quiet, thoughtful, and polite student. She is a woman of few words (at least to me) but when she DOES speak, she is always enthusiastic and appreciative. I feel lucky to have taught her the past few years.
I remember having a great conversation with Martha before she went on her big trip to Japan last summer. I was so impressed with her courageous and adventurous spirit; I believe she was going by herself and taking classes while she was there.
Good luck to you, Martha! You can't help but be successful with your winning personality, your determination, and your many talents.
