John Turnbull forced me to step out of my comfort zone in order to explore what it means to be more than just [a] good writer. … For the first time since coming to NIU, I felt like I was learning as a writer. … I was finally receiving actual, in-depth reviews of my writing.

Mr. John teaches kindly English. Especially in class he’ve never contradicted what he said. And through this semester I could learn a lot of things. Then, I could learn how to learn English by myself. He has humor. He motivated me to study English.
