Simply the best! Professor Sciortino provides a relaxed classroom environment; she allows ample time to write essays and is always willing to help. If you take another English professor at Mercer, you are not too bright. Do yourself a favor and take her for 101 and 102. You will not regret it!

You honestly could not ask for a better professor. I mean, she has to be my most favorite professor alive. Her class is relatively easy; you have to do the work, and you will be fine. She goes over your essays step by step with everyone individually, which was terrific and super beneficial. She knew when to have fun but also when to be serious.

One of my favorite educators, if not my favorite I've had in so far. Each assignment builds off of each other, and no assignment feels useless. Everything is also broken down very well, making essays very easy to write, along with the amount of time given per essay. Grades are also fair, and feel very rewarding.

The best professor for English 101! 10/10! Each assignment builds off of each other, and no assignment is unnecessary. In order to pass the class you must put in the work, & turn everything in on time.

Dr. Sciortino is a great professor. She's very interactive; she helps with questions. She can be strict at times, but most of the time it's not without a reason. I would be wary that there are weekly discussion posts; while they can be stressful, I found them beneficial, as they go along with the essay and allow you to keep up with the work.
