Just to be more specific. She seems nice. Gives no extra credit. Does not help you because she thinks you should know it already. She grades your paper thinking you are a professional writer. If you do few mistakes you go straight to a C or D. She is not caring. She really discourages students. She has favorites, which is not professional at all.
