Through out the semester I learned a lot of things about life.
Including dating skills and when in a relationship there should be equal rights and no abuse so both boy and girl is happy together.
We learned about communication skills and correct ways to have a verbal and non verbal communication skills. We learned about time and stress management skills and how to use our time wisely and without stress and many other interesting topics. The most useful topic was dating. And from me first starting the class I didn't know as much information as I do now and I think me taking the class has taught me many things that I can use in my life in the future and I'm glad I took this class to prepare me for what's up ahead.
