today

after researching marvel which i am familiar with through my research for my class esp mental health issues Steve helped me organized my gmail account which will be a great help in grading and overall understanding of what i can do with gmail in my class as a teaching tool

gmail

i was wondering whether you can correct an essay that was posted on gmail such as spelling errors or circle important ideas that have been made or can you only reply with a grade and maybe a comment
