Maybe helpful, but what an idiot. Easy A, at a price of anoyance.

Good teacher for those who are serious, a little clarity would be benificial.

She isn't the greatest professor in the world... but she sure does have her own way of teaching things. Sitting through class is torture yet its an easy A. Grades on what she wants you to write, not what you write.

If your looking for an easy "A" this is the teacher for you. She has 5 essays and a research paper but she def. babies you. She basically writes your paper for you! I wish she taught 1102 i would def. take her class again! I love the Portster

Mrs.Porter is the greatest english teacher I ever had , she is very patient and walks you through each assignment.She was ethused each time I came to her for help unlike some professors who make it clear that your on your own. She is excellent:)

Wonderful woman.. a little flighty, but she gives her all... she makes herself available after class hours, and allows you to rewright essays for a much better grade.. She has great ways of teaching english rules and sorts..she very organized(color coated paper)..I would highly recommend her... try ur best, be there and you should pass with an A/B.

GOSH U WANT SOMEONE TO SPOON FEED U EVERY SINGLE DETAIL THEN U SURELY SHOULD TAKE HER. SHE'LL GIVE U A COPY OF WHAT SHE WANTS ON THE ESSAY JUST MODIFY IT SLIGHTLY AND MAKE IT LONGER TO GET AN A. DONT TRY ANYTHING NEW OR SOMETHING THAT IS "UR STYLE" U WONT GET ABOVE AN B-, AND DONT BOTHER TO BUY ANY TEXTBOOKS JUST BORROW IT FROM SOME FRIEND COZ U WO

she is a good professor but kinda gets confusing when she lectures because she jumps around from topic to topic. she makes everything very clear & helps you get the best grade that you are willing to get. she is a teacher who truely cares about her students :-) i would highly recommend her to anyone.

She healped me so much. I had to leave at the end of the semester to have my son and she gave my assignments I could do at home to make up for my final grade, so I could still pass the class with a good grade.

Ms. Porter is very specific on what she would like from her students as far as assignments go, she also walks you through the assignments, and gives the chance to redo things, as long as you follow everything on the syllabus there is no way you can fail her class, plus she helps you on every single thing.

She goes over what she wants from you every single day. and if you turn in the rough drafts for your essays which don't count as a grade you'll make an A on the essay that counts. She gives extra credit but some of its a pain. She's EXTREMELY helpful and easy to follow along with as long as your paying attention.

I took ENC 1101 as a Dual Enrollment class. Professor Porter is an AMAZING teacher! She is very clear on what is expected of you in her class. Extremely helpful with writing essays and perfecting your grammar. Offers tons of extra credit. I got an A in the class and feel much more confident when I write papers thanks to her.

Mrs. Porter is very patient, Ive never done a research paper, she took us thru it all with colorcoded sheets. I had to be absent more than allowed, but I made up the extra days with extra credits. Sometimes I stayed late to get a better grade and she always seemed glad to see me.

I've been getting B's on my essays, but I'm getting an A in the course from extra credits. I did extra on the research project, she helped me with it step by step, then you get your grade average afterwards. Just do your best and ask for help if you need it and you'll get an A, shes not that hard.

She's a very caring, helpful teacher. When I gave her my rough drafts, I liked all the red she put on it because the grade didn't count, just the final draft. MCC has a strict attendance policy but Prof. Porter lets us make up our absences with extra credits. Sometimes she jumps from topic to topic so you have to pay attention.

I've learned so much...she gives lots of extra credit...easy to get along with...I'm dual enrollment and i never got stressed cuz we did rough and final drafts of all the parts and had conferences when we needed them.

I finally took French, I dont know why I put it off so long. I felt comfortable from the start--Mrs Porter goes over the homework in the work book, it gets graded 100 for doing it, then tests are mostly taken from the homework. I learned alot and never sweated it. Just do your homework, study a little, have fun with dialogues--you'll get an A.

Awesome teacher, friendly and helpful, fair at grading. She even got me to like French after a bad experience in high School.

I wish she taught English 1102, Id take her again if I could. English is my worst subject, I got mostly Cs and Ds in highschool. I got a B from Mrs Porter. She helped me after class and with all my rough drafts. Shes the best.

I'm an older student returning to school. I was nervous at first, wanting to do well. She's worked with me after class. She's given me confidence. She's inspired me.

She's warm and very, very friendly. She helped me after class many times, but if U dont want to stay you can leave early.

I'm taking a third French class this summer with Madame Porter. I like her methods. She's easy going, explains everything thoroughly and she's fair about grading.

She even made grammar fun, with grammar contests and chanting WSIBA BAA. Her style of teaching is somewhat unusual, but very effective.

She makes sure you understand every assignment and test. I loved her structure, she provided feedback in a timely manner so you could make corrections and bring up your grade on your final paper. I loved her class.

She does a great job of teaching French in a stepping stone fashion where one thing prepares you for the next, without overloading you with extra knowledge that may be too advanced for the class.

She carefully explains everything. Then she asks questions to make sure you understand. You can leave early or stay for help. She's the best English teacher I ever had.

She grades hard on the essays, but allows you to turn in rough drafts to ensure you get a better grade on the final draft. One thing i love about her is all the extra credit opportunities. She offers +1, +2, +3's ect. this basically is actual percentage points that go on your FINAL GRADE. EX: 88+1+3 turns into an 92. She makes it easy for an A.

I had personal issues this summer that hurt my grades. Professor Porter worked with me on extra credits to raise my grade to a B. I recommend her to everyone I know.

Professor Porter explained everything on the first short test but I still kind of bombed it. I never took French before. Then I made a study guide like she said and aced the second one. I really like how she comes into labs to help and answer questions.

Mrs Porter is the best. This is my third try at passing 1101, I almost gave up. But you know just where you stand in her class. If you dont understand something you stay for help when she lets class out early.

She is a great teacher!! Grades a little hard on essays BUT she lets you turn in rough drafts to help you. Wants you to get and A in class so she will help you. 100% recommend!!!!!!

I had her for French I. She is agreat teacher but she grades way to hard on tests and quizzes, it's an all or nothing type thing. She makes you act out the dialougues with gestures that are stupid. And there is NO POINT to the Lab section. I learned a lot but not in a way to remember it forever. Can be rude in class but a good teacher over all.

I had to be absent several days early this semester in French II. Mrs. Porter helped me get caught up without any penalties--as long as I made up one thing each day. Her grading system is very fair.

She is def very helpful! Sometimes confusing, specially on her essays! But she is a good teacher overall, recommended!

For being an English class,I really got into my work and learned a lot especially when it came to grammar. She helped me to better focus on my topics and create well written essays. She's EXTREMELY easy to get along with really cares about her students. She will help you any way she can to earn the grade you're willing to work for.

I like how she lets you study on test days while she practices dialogue with other people, then you do good on the test plus get 100 later on the dialogue.

Even grammar comes alive in her class--working in groups and especially grammar contests where everyone competes for points. She's also very good at getting people involved in poetry, volunteering ideas and seeing poems in a totally new way.

She is very helpful on essay assignments. She accepts rough drafts, she gives alot of details of what she wants so you can improve, but she allows you to be creative. She is more than willing to go the extra mile.

lots of writing on the board to help you, very organized, carefully explains what's on tests--highly recommend for French!!

She has lots of writing on the board to help you, she's very organized and carefully explains what's on the test--highly recommended for French!!

Mrs. Porter is a great teacher. She's very energized, and maybe a little nutty, but that's part of her charm. She wants you to be successful in the class so she works hard to help you make up work. Just do your homework and definitely GO TO CLASS and you'll do great!

I'm just finishing my second semester of French with Mrs. Porter, she's a fantastic teacher, I've learned so much. Sometimes I'm confused while doing my workbook exercises, but then she has students write them on the board and she corrects all the errors. The weeky "mini-tests" come from the exercises, so I'm getting a solid A and I'm not stressed.

loved her!! friendly and nice and worked patiently with me to improve my writing

She goes through everything piece by piece and literally explains everything to you and helps you with every part of the assignments in class. She was great, she made it very easy to learn. Perhaps she might be a little less hard in grading essays :) though it got us prepared for future classes.

I love French. I've been wanting to take it for years. She makes it easy to learn with short weekly tests, very thorough in explaining what's on them. I do better on some than others but it all evens out. She's wonderful about allowing extra credits.

Professor Porter is a very helpful teacher. She is really funny once you get closer to the end of the semester. She is kind of hard to understand when she explains assignments, but she goes over them multiple times. You can e-mail her any papers or rough drafts which is convenient. Not an easy grader, but alway willing to help! HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER

I finally learned to write a good research paper. She takes you thru every step with models and rough drafts so you can't go wrong. I dropped another 1101 class where he just told you to read the MLA stuff and figure it out yourself. Good luck with that. What I love is how she gives lots of extra credit so if you really want an A you can get it.

She was a wonderful prof. She was a little confusing at first, but after asking, she slowed down. Her class is extremely easy if you actually want to learn french, or just earn an A. She gives you every opportunity to pass and if you don't then you aren't trying hard enough.

I expected French II to be harder than French I but Madame Porter makes is easy unless you're absent, then you really miss a lot. She explains everything for the short tests over several days and each day builds on the one before.

You have 4 short essays a page and a half each. You don't have to do rough drafts but I do anyway, her comments help me focus and raise my final grade. She introduces each essay with a model that one of her students already wrote on the same topic. That's incredibly helpful, you don't have to start from scratch, it has a model thesis and everything

I just got B on the extra credit essay. That means 3 points added to the FINAL grade. She's not an easy grader, not many A essays but I sure do love those extra credits. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Great professor--warm and friendly and fun, especially grammar contests. I'm now a much better writer.

Very reasonable workload in French. Getting 100 for doing workbook exercises with errors and all, then correcting the sentences on the board, gave me a real insight into the language.

I didn't like the way she taught. It was a writing class to explore all, not just one type of writing.

she's great and very helpful!!

She's very patient in explaining everything. Memorizing the dialogues is fun and will be very useful when I go to Paris some day!

I was scared to death of taking a foreign language but I’m glad I took her class. In the beginning I was confused on the work books, but after a few weeks, you’ll see her routine. Each weekly mini test is based on the homework. Make a study guide of what was covered during the week, show up, and you’ll do great. I highly recommend this professor!

Halfway thru French II, very little stress--great prof, learning a lot

Very helpful, was a bit confusing at first, but if you ask, and she sees your interest she will go out of her way to help u. She tells you exactly what's on the quizzes, final, and her expectations for essays. She is a great teacher and most def anyone can do well if you study!!

Nice Professor and class is structured well but she's a little over the top with french tests. The last 3 weeks of class there is a test every day before you even get to the final. It's extreme over kill, and it make it difficult to take other classes along side this one. It's a good class but I'm glad it's over. Tough to fit in your schedule!

at first i was very apprehensive but she turned out to be a great prof! very helpful and extremely fair in grading! would def recommend her!

Extremely helpful, esp. at the end. Last class was for extra credit or maybe start the final exam, can finish next week. Study guide showed exactly what verbs etc on it.

Madame Porter made French so easy to pick up. She is very easy with her grading and always willing to give extra time to something if you're unsure. A little pushy on forcing class participation and a little quirky, but a lot of fun.

great prof--study guides and handouts and interactive board work then explains exactly what and how to study for short tests--I was scared at first but now I'm taking French II in the spring

very helpful, easy grader if you give her a copy of your thesis and topic sentences or email them for rewriting. Loved the grammar contests

Each workbook lesson is stepping stone to the next, with short tests that are clearly explained. Study guides help you learn the French, and if you do your homework and pay attention in class you will definitely succeed. Highly recommend!

Porter is nice, but can be very confusing. She offers tons of help and extra credit. She likes very specific styles and instructions. Don't take her if you're looking to learn a lot, but she's a pretty easy A if you're just taking to fulfill enc1101 credit.

This is a great class! There is so much opportunity for extra credit, so if you show up to class you will do good. She is very, very nice and helpful. You can ask any question, and she will help you. Sometimes the syllabus is confusing, but she will clarify if you do not understand. My listening comprension skills have improved greatly!

There's a few short essay projects you'll do, but they're super easy. It's pretty confusing the way her syllabus and grading criteria's are laid out, but ask her for help and she'll clarify. Overall, very easy and inspirational class. Responds fast to emails, great (lengthy) feedback on essays, and an inspirational person.

Such a great teacher and very easy to get an A in her class as long as you're in class and paying attention. Took French 1 and 2 and planning on taking intermediate French with her I enjoy coming to her class everytime and makes French easy.

I love this class! The proffesor has a offbeat sense of humor that makes learning fun. grading system very fair and I've learned alot.

Awesome teacher, love the study guides for tests but confused at first by all the strange rules like Def gen and negitive verb not etre. Finally I realized their just for extra credit and I stopped stressing then one day I just discovered all those rules were starting to make sense. Great class!

You get an extra day for tests, she takes points off but that's ok if your unsure of what your doing. I like how she repeats things like a new verb for one test then the same verb with NOT for next test until it sinks in. Lots of short tests but easier to learn that way. Very helpful and nice.

Great professor, easy class if you just do what's required, I made things harder for myself by doing all the extra credits. She is very nice and helpful, answers all your questions and makes sure you get it. Looking forward to her Intermediate class, thinking about French minor

Tons of extra credit, helps anyone whose struggling, makes it easy to pick up French.

great professor, very nice and patient in teaching how to put everything together in sentences, subjects and verbs and all the other stuff, and all the grammar rules. study guides are very helpful for short tests, easy to get an A and a fun, relaxed class

Elle est excellente! I love this class!

good class--takes some getting used to at first. I like all the new oral practice, we need it, but glad she kept study guides for written tests. Still easy A for French 2

Madame Porter has excelled as a teacher this semester. Had her for previous one and she added more oral dialogue to this class and had us use the French we acquired. Loved it!!! She is very quirky, very fair, and really wants her students to know the language well. Extra credit helps to learn more and excel in her class. Definitely take her!!!

IF YOU SKIP, YOU WILL NOT DO AS WELL!!! Pay attention in class, participate without being forced, and study the STUDY GUIDE and it is an easy A. Madame Porter is an awesome professor and she knows the material well. She can get a bit off topic at times but its usually always related to some aspect of class. Again, PAY ATTENTION and youll be fine.

I think Madame Porter is great, she knows the language very well and is always willing to help you further if you have a question with something. As long as you practice saying/writing your dialogue you well have no problem passing her class. She goes over the homework in class before it is due and gives a help sheet on canvas incase you need it.

Madame Porter is a great professor who makes learning French engaging. Her class has a good mix of oral practice and written work. I found unstuck ai and the free textbook really helpful for study prep.
