SUMMER CLASS - Prof. Record is extremely blunt and to the point but she is "Excellent". She doesn't take any "&%$^!", so don't be late, turn in your papers on time and class participation is a must. She challenges you on each paper, always wanting you to push to the next level. Don't let her height fool you, inch for inch, she's an awesome prof!

A great professor to start your college english course series with. Pros: engaging and loquacious in class, her lectures are less soliloquy in nature and more syllogistic. If you don't know what a rhetoric device is before the course, you will by the end - even if you don't realize it. You will not be disappointed in her course.

This professor comes off as rude on her online class. She criticized me because of silly things and never seemed satisfied with my writing style. These seemed to be silly reasons to take points off as not everyone has the same style of writing. The material we went over was boring and difficult to follow. Otherwise not a hard class

Professor Record is very rude when she provides feedback in her online courses. Her feedback is not constructive. She writes things like "Why are you doing this?" Instead of explaining how to fix the problem; I would not take her again. I think that she should help her students grow, instead of making them feel bad about their writing.

Professor Aimee Record is one of the most discouraging professors I have ever dealt with. If your ultimate goal is to become a writer, she is not a professor I would recommend to anyone. She is rude and somewhat sarcastic she takes the fun away from learning and does not give content credit. I will not recommend her to anyone.

Professor Record is honestly an amazing professor. She is a fair grader,explains herself, and she was always ready to help. There were times I didn't agree with how she came across but if you speak to her and bring to her attention she changes/apologizes. I would take her class again.
