super clutch teacher EASY TO UNDERSTAND bonds with students and is willing to help whenever needed. DEFINITALLY big on essays but usually gives rough drafts AKA YOU WILL AN A+ lots of extra credit opportunities DEFFINITALLY TAKE THIS CLASS
I have really enjoyed Miss Potter's English class. She makes us write papers and is kind of a stickler for grammar but she is fair. she is also funny and makes class time go by quick. She listens to your opinions and seems to really want you to do well. If you dont pass its on you.
Miss Potter is a great instructor, she will give you infinite feedback on your rough drafts if you turn the draft in on time, and she's extremely funny and tries to develop good relationships with her students, DEFINITELY take this class!
LOVE HER. Awesome teacher and class. I learned a lot
Awsome instructor. If you are unclear of the assingment she will explain. She is a wonderful editor when it comes to writing papers. There is no way you shouldnt pass this class. she is willing to help if you are willing t help yourself.
Ms. Potter is awesome! She is so laid back and very sweet. She does an amazing job at editing essays and tells you what you need to improve. She makes class fun and there really isn't a ton of work for her class. If you show up, read, and do your assignments, it's an easy A.
She's amazing, helpful, and nice
Ms. Potter is great! Thankful to have had her of my first college english course! She is very helpful and willing to work with you!!
if she tells you to read somthing there is a quiz the next time she sees you
If she tells you to read, READ! She is very easy going, and overall, a great teacher! I recommend her to anyone that sees english as difficult subject.
She is an amazing teacher. I really enjoyed her. She has her days were she doesn't feel like doing anything so she will assign work and let you leave. She is a great teacher and really easy going when it comes to you needing her help. I am taking her again when I take english112
Professor Potter is so chill and down to earth when it comes to teaching that it makes it kind of enjoyable to go to her class. The discussions in class can get heated but she handles her students very well. Lots of draft days which helped me improve my writing instead of me just getting lost in the class. Taking 112 with her next semester for sure
Best English teacher I've had this far, will 100 percent wait to take eng 112 until I can get in her class. She is a teacher that goes above and beyond. If you turn in drafts and use her feedback correctly, every paper is easy A.
The best teacher overall & very helpful when it comes to your papers .Just make sure you do your work
THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!
Ms Potter is the best. Explains material well and is willing to help you if you are struggling.
One of the best this institution has to offer, enough said
Miss Potter is in deed great professor, i loved her classes. She has a lots of extra credits and journals on which you can get 100. She is not and easy grader but not tough either, she will review rough draft on each paper and help you out out of class in her office, so take advantage of that. You don't need too much to get an "A" TRUST ME.
Ms. Potter is very friendly and outgoing! I greatly enjoyed her class. She reviews rough drafts herself instead of doing peer reviews and gives excellent advice. Lots of opportunities for extra credit.
Potter is hilarious, gets through lessons pretty quickly but makes sure everyone understands. She makes an effort to get to know everyone and is fun to talk to about anything :) You get draft days in class to work on your essays and proofreads it so you can be more successful in her class. Expect a mini quiz after every reading assignment.
Professor Potter is a wonderful teacher with a great personality! As expected with a literature class a ton of reading and a tremendous amount of writing was required. Tough grader and rightfully so. Very helpful and gives great feedback. I started off pretty rough in her class but with time my writing was dramatically improved! Very grateful!
By far worst professor Iv'e had at wake tech. I am a hardworking student, All was good until she told me she was taking 30 points off a paper that I had turned in because it was early. Yeah you heard that right, early. I found her to be very unprofessional.
I really enjoyed her class. Covered a wide range of topics and was interesting even though I hate English. She is fair and will give you a chance to improve.
Ms. Potter is a nice person but not the teacher to take if you are a dual enrollment student. The topics she chooses for essays are controversial and not appropriate for teens still in high school. We spent class time watching Oprah and other tv shows. I didn't feel prepared for Eng 112 at all.
Amazing! I enjoyed the class discussions and the topics we discussed. If you're afraid to talk about important issues, don't take this class, but if you like talking about big topics and writing, it's a great course.
People who think she's hard are nuts! She is super easy and laid back. You just have to do the work and follow instructions. She will help you a lot and is really funny and great. Love her
She's great. If I could give any advice to students, it is take advantage of the drafting sessions! She will help you with your whole paper if you go!
Terrible teacher. Homework everyday, quizzes after every reading. Doesn't go over the homework or the tests. Terrible experience
"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." If you show up to class, participate in group discussions, and actually give a crap about the class, then Ms. Potter will reward you. Not much homework and pretty lenient grader. Just work with her and she will work with you. Oh, and don't buy LB Brief for ENG 111, you will not use it.
I enjoy the class and the teacher. She work hard to help me.
Professor Potter is a great professor. She is laid back, gives good feedback, and will edit papers before you turn them upon request. Homework assigned almost every class. Quiz after every reading. Journal writing weekly. In-class movies. Tests are essay and simple answer format and there are only two then the final exam.
Gives homework usually every class, but otherwise is one of the most relaxed professors out there. She lets class out early about 80% of the time, and is very flexible if you overslept or something like that.
Potter is down to earth and very likable. Be prepared for a quiz after every reading. She really helps with papers, just follow all of her instructions. The only downfall to taking her class is not getting grades back.
Get ready for pop quizzes almost every single class. They're all reading specific. She will help you with your paper and will pretty much help you with anything. nonchalant , laid back. One thing, she can be a bit late if you take her early morning classes. Funny and she encourages participation.
Ms. Potter is one of my favorite teachers. Follow her guidelines and do homework and you will do great. She will look over essays for students and gives several extra credit opportunities. The only thing I didn't like about the class was it felt like 111 all over. The readings and grammar were the same. She reuses 111 quizzes for grammar and hw
Ms. Potter is a awesome professor. She gives great feedback and is always trying to help her students. While she is picky about grammar (especially commas, vague pronouns, and pronoun agreement), she is a pretty easy grader when it comes to content. Overall, Ms. Potter is great professor and, if you do the work, an A should be relatively easy.
Shes amazing and nice. I am so glad I got in her class but be careful her classes fill up fast
Nice,Yea she gives quiz after each reading. But she do this to prepare you to write the paper. As usually her paper is in the same topics that you have read or close to it. And those topics are determined by the department .She makes you show her a draft to correct your paper before you submit it and if you follow her rubric you can get an easy A.
Ms. Potter was great. I wish I could have taken her for 112. She is very personable and funny. Classes were very relaxed and material was easy. She offers plenty of extra credit, so there is no reason you shouldn't get an A. Papers were fun, and the final exam is just an essay that she gives the prompt out for a week or 2 in advance. Take her class
Very sweet and laid back!!! Her class is pretty easy too, only 3 papers total and almost everything counts as classwork. Shes awesome. Gives lots of time to write papers as well
EASY! Do your work, and you will pass. She does not take late work at all, so you got to be on top of it, but you can miss a few things and pass anyway.
Terrible teacher.
Dont take her.
Awesome! She worked with me so much
good teacher, looking to take her class for Eng 112.
Very good semester and nice teacher. The class was fun. There was a lot of homework but most of it was easy. Got lots of help on my papers and good feedback.
Love her
She is the nicest person I have ever met. She is still a tough grader. But if you are trying and working she will hep you a lot. If you dont try I dont think she cares much. sh e will grade you fair but she wont go out of her way to help you unless you are puttng in the work
Loved her class. Tough but fun and she will help you.
This was my 1st college class after taking a many year break from school & had a very pleasant experience in Ms. Potter's American Literature class. She is a hard grader, but I think that is expected for a literature professor, especially with grammar and so on... She is very approachable and willing to help her students.
I went to go see her in the reel center abougt twice a week and that really haelped me. if you go to see hr she wil help you a lot. it was nto super easy but she was very nice to me and helped me pass. i think its a good class if you are not trying to get ane asy a but just want topass and are willign to wrk
Great teacher
Her class is very simple, she simply read what is in her pdf. English 111 book was used only once and the LB was never used in class. To be honest, I do not recommend this teacher if you intend to learn anything. She is a good person, but not a good teacher.
Easy to pass if you do your work. Nice and approachable. Took her in the summer. It moved fast but she kept it fun and manageable,
She gave last min assignments, like at 10pm the night before class. She is not available during non-office hours. My biggest complaint is she waited to grade most of our homework and papers until the day the final grades were due. Save yourself a huge headache and do not take her class.
Liked her class. It was easy to get an a, but I didn't all the classwork.
She's very nice, and her class is a lot of fun. There are only three papers, and we had inclass workshop days to work on them. That was helpful. the homework was easy, and she was not lecture heavy. all in all, good class. I will take her 112
I had her for 111 and 112. She was more strick in 111 but it was still an easy class. 112 she was more relaxed and it was more fun. I will take her lit class nexgt. She makes me like English
She is a wonderful teacher had her for ENG 111 and ENG 112. She is awesome!
She is wonderful!
She helped me out alot. really nice. I could see a big difference in how she trated and worked with me me vs how she trated the students who didnt care or do work
Loved her for 112. Fun, easy class. Lots of discussion. Wya more laid back than 111
Nice Professor but lacks organization and professionalism.
Nice and laid back. Do your work and you'll pass.
Ms. Potter is a wonderful teacher. She's kind and funny, and she helps anyone who is willing to ask for it! She doesn't take late work, but if you try your best and ask for help she'll help you out. We only had three (kinda short) papers. She has multiple drafting days for each paper where she will mark up the draft to help you do the best you can!
The best. Relaxed. Easy. Doesnt work for everyone but i liked it.
I didn't mind Ms. Potter. her class was pretty easy and more of a nuisance due to quizzes every class and her being really strict when grading papers. Miss a comma? lose a point. I lost my A due to this crap on my 35% paper. If you have the time for it, this class will let you pass with a good grade.
Excellent. Turned m,y writing from crap to A work thanks to drafting days
Great teacher. Fun and easy calss.
I learned a lot and really tried. She kept me encouraged when I felt like giving up. She can be strict but does care and will help you if you try.
Ms. Potter was a laid back and chill teacher. Class is informal and has very basic discussion on the readings. We had to do 3 papers and a presentation. As long as you do your reading for the pop quizzes you will be fine. Follow her rubrics to the letter as she can be picky about small mistakes.
I had Professor Potter for both Eng 111 and Eng 112 and she is a great professor. As long as you go to class and do the homework you will do well. I recommend you go to the first drafting day when writing a paper because they are always extremely helpful!!
This professor does not have the patience to communicate and refused to give out her email. She makes the course feel it is alot harder than it needs to be and does not take the time to give the little extra help to those that need it.
Her online class is really easy. Almost everything you get a 100 if you submit it on time. You can miss a few but be sure tod o the papers also really nice if you eamil her
Potter was not the best online professor. I think she would be great in person but online she was often late to post the weeks work and also didn't give good feedback. She is a very tough grader on the papers which are most of the grade however she is willing to help if you ask.
Amazing professor. Had her for ENG 111 and ENG 112. I'd definitely recommend her. Gives a lot of extra credit and feedback
I loved her in person. Class was fun and enjoyable. Lots of discussions and help. Online was not as fun, but it was easy to pass.
If you turn in assignments on time youll most likely get a 100 on it. Shes one of the best professors I have ever had.
Amazing teacher!
Professor Potter is a solid choice. Assignments are pretty straight forward and as long as you turn them in on time you should pass. The only downside to this professor is that she takes a long time grading but overall she is a very great choice.
class is boring, don't give clear paper instructions, drafting week not helpful at all, gives short time to do paper, hard grader never seen like her, I hated the class so much that I will not ever take her class or advice, anyone, to do so.
I don't advise a freshman to take a class with her, I took the course this semester and regretted it. the class was not helpful and bad for your grade. I will advise checking other available professors before signing up for hers.
Lazy instructor(took a month to grade an essay) with no feedback on any of the essays. One might do decent in this course, but if you want to learn at least a few things, take this class with another instructor because she is not great at all.
Prof Potter has a history of being a decent professor but this semester it just wasn't the case. She gave minimal feedback and graded everything super late. I'm not a great writer but I came away with nothing from her class and have 0 preparedness for the next course. Perhaps she had a rough year and is better in person but I recommend anyone else.
ABSOLUTLEY TERRIBLE!!!!!
This english class was absolutely the worst I have ever taken. She was vague on rubrics and refused to answer questions in emails. HEAVY behind on grading. It took two months to get our second essay graded and it wasnt until the second to last week. She won't provide proper feedback or help you in the class. None of the material was hers. Beware.
I enjoyed the class and foudn it easy to get a good grade. She looked over myd raft for me and it relaly helped. I would advise haivng her looking at papers before submitting them for a grade.
Love her. Simple, straightforward.,do your work and you should get a good grade
I worked tooth and nail to get into the class because ratemyprofessor said she was good. She took a long time to grade the first paper and I only got it back the day my second paper was due. She nitpicks everything and grades very harshly. I asked for extra credit or a rewrite of my first paper and she denied both. All essays were argumentative.
She does not teach anything. An essay must be written by a professor in order to score an A.
Professor Potter was great at giving feedback on our papers and always let us submit drafts before a paper was due. She was very lenient about class, if someone had something come up then it wasn't used against them and she did a good job of catching you up. Overall, she was a great teacher.
She is an overall amazing professor. Participation and doing your work is key. Professor Potter loves group discussions and they can be so much fun when you get creative with it. Dont be afraid to ask for help because she will make sure you are successful in her class and you can tell she cares about every last one of her students.
Took a month to grade essays. Got the grade back on all essays on the day the next one was due. Too many points off for grammatical & minor errors & never provided substantial feedback on the essays. Only critiqued the minor errors and knocked off TWENTY points. Rest of class is not bad & she grades those quickly. Beware if essays are not for you!
Prof. Potter is kinda ~quirky~ but she's a really great prof. Most of the class relies on small assignments and class discussions, there were only two or three big papers. Prof. Potter is really funny, relatable, and her grading isn't too tough. This class also just builds upon things already learned in prior classes, so it's pretty easy.
Ms. Potter is great! She assigned three major essay assignments and a final short essay. The concepts you learn are straightforward, and if you do the readings and follow the rubrics, you will be in great shape. She is always willing to help if needed and is quick to respond to emails. Citations and proper page setup are crucial!
Prof. Potter is an all-around solid professor. Three major papers are in the course and then a final short essay. She gives good feedback but does take some time to grade essays (over a month for me). My only irritation with this professor was the weekly readings. I skipped most and only read what I had to for discussion board posts.
The course consists of discussion boards and potentially a quiz per week. The main factors of your grade are the 3 essays and the final. She does take quite a while to grade all of them and will nitpick over small grammar mistakes and take off a lot of points for seemingly small errors.
Really nice are care a lot about her students. super cool about papers and gives real criticism on how to improve.
Mrs Potter is such an AMAZING teacher. She's so nice and kind, and I wish I could have her as my ENG-112 teacher :( We wrote 3 papers in the class and did about 2 things a week. When we were working on a paper, we had no other work besides the paper. If you do badly on a paper, just talk to her about it. She is always willing to help!
Gotta be the worst teacher bruh aint no way, never replies to emails.
She is such a nice person, but she is unclear with her feedback and is a hard grader.
Unreasonable grader, takes A LOT of points off for small mistakes like grammar, comma usage, etc. When she grades papers, reasons for point deductions are very vague. Finding clear instructions for big assignments is harder than doing the assignment itself. She also removes the past units so you can't find the instructions or go back to them.
Professor Potter was the best English teacher I've had in a while. I personally am more of a science person, so I have always struggled in English classes. Potter made it fun with many in class discussions and interesting essay prompts. Just make sure to keep up with all the little assignments in class because they do add up.
