I started out liking this teacher , but quickly figured out that this teacher couldnt teach. She's extremely nervous in front of a class, talks about random meaningless things, and tells you how much you suck at wrting. By April (the class was from Jan-May) half of the class had dropped and on a good day maybe ten people would be there.

Mrs. W was fair and always availabe at office hours for help. If you are in the class you better work hard because she doesn't lower her standards for anyone. At first she seemed strict but eased up after Spring Break. People who want to get over should not take her class.

I just got my midterm grade. I have an A. Mrs. Washington explains alot of stuff to us; some of the grammar I already know but I guess some of the other people don't. She's cool but don't eat in her class or text.AND DO THE DRAFTS AND WORK. Those points add up.

I have a high b right now, an 87. I hope she gives some "you tried hard points." I like this class 'cause we basically get to pick our own topics. It's hard to write about something you don't like. Anyway I think I have a good grade 'cause of the topic choice. I agree with the poster who said the drafting points add up. Extra credit helps.

Bring your book all the time. We do alot of practice exercises w/o the book, but some days she'll bust out, "Turn in your text..." Irks me. She also has bad hair. But whatever; she has helped me w/extra drafts on all the papers. I can't complain. And I think I can use a semicolon and can sustain a thesis. Does that make me a good writer? Duh?

You will pass if you put in the effort. Make sure you read the books assigned there are quizzes. Total of 4 essays. The last essay is the final and is 8 pages. She always complimented my essays even though I did them last minute. Many extra credit opportunities. Very lenient, would often push back due dates. Gave feedback on every assignment!

Professor Washingtons class was really enjoyable. All the discussions had different topics and made the reading interesting. There is no text book required but there were two books that we had to purchase that was needed for assignments and papers. My suggestion is, if you don't keep up with the reading and the discussion board, you'll fail.

I really admire Professor Washington. She was one of the few English professors at CRC that I taught me how to develop my creativity and writing process. She was intimidating at first, but she really is a caring and understanding professor. Id recommend her if youre ready to improve your critical thinking and writing skills.

I think that if you did alright in your high school English class, then you'll do well in this class as well. If you are unfamiliar with how to format in MLA style, you'll definitely want to pay close attention. I think she takes a bit too many points off for small grammatical errors. One required book, free at the library. VERY easy Extra Credit.

She is a really tough grader on papers but accommodates new English speakers. She can be funny sometimes, and as long as you read the books she assigns(a lot of reading) you're fine for tests/papers.

I was iffy with her at first, but I grew to respect her as a professor. She helped me a lot with formatting issues on papers and being able to analyze text better. She wasn't a tough grader but was a somewhat picky grader, but it's for a reason. She is also very understanding if you have a lot of questions or if you have a lot going on.

the biggest cons were the amount of readings, and her feedback which seemed fairly opinion-based. though the discussions helped w/ readings, it was definitely hard to manage with my other classes, work, and personal life. i'd definitely recommend this class if you love to read! accepts late work and always listened to students' needs and concerns!

She is a yapper in some classes we don't do anything but listen to her talk. A lot of free writing, and group discussions, and she doesn't take long at grading. She is very strict at grading essays but if you are naturally good at writing you'll be fine.

Too many readings, some are just not fun to read and way too long. She may randomly call on you so be aware. Essays are graded very hard and is very vague about what she wants on those essays. Attendance is basically mandatory as it is part of your grade. If you don't like reading a lot of material, probably best to take another professor.

Lectures were pretty boring, I notice a lot of people are trying to not fall asleep or try to sneak on their phones. Too much reading for a 3 unit class and some readings are just not relevant or necessary at all. Told us we only need to know 6 stories well for our first big quiz, then proceeds to put specific quotes from all 20 stories to match.

Lots of reading assigned per week, which is difficult to keep up with. Don't take if reading isn't your strength. Grades harshly on the essays but the quizzes are alright. Being absent or late too many times will badly impact your participation grade in the end. Lectures were pretty boring. Do all the work on time and you can probably pass.

Super encouraging and definitely cares about her student's success. Course is fairly easy and doable, except for essays, which we got about a week to write (it was a summer course though). She'll take the time to email you with helpful videos and explanations if she noticed something you needed help with and has office hours for help.
