Interesting as always. I was occasionally disappointed that the only students who came to see me about their essays were the ones disappointed by their grades. The ones I ranked first class seemed content to tick off my class as "in the bag," although they might swing by to ensure that any final exam did not drag down their average. So, it's a two-way thing in terms of critique. But overall, I think we could all improve our ability to accept praise. The English proverbially are given to understatement compared to Americans for instance. So, I have been schooled to interpret - 'this is quite good' as a form of rapture.
