Overall I didn't learn that much specifically on health writing, but learned a lot about grammar and consision/cohesiveness and how to cater my writing to different kinds of audiences. He's really intent on grading based on grammar/concision/cohesion so make sure to focus on what he says in class. Make sure to get 100% on his quizzes and they will help your grade a lot. Not that much work throughout the semester but do not procrastinate on the final project which is a pretty long paper.

As long as you write decent papers you will get an A. He didn't even grade my final assignment (technically worth 25% of the grade) because I had an A already.
