My favorite class to teach is Business Communications. I love this class because the students get to debate each other on various topics.

I get to build relationships with these students by listening to their views and they feel like they have an adult that wants to hear those opinions.

MICROSOFT! I feel as though it is much simpler to use the system. I also teach MOS as it is the system that most businesses prefer.
