she is the most easiest of the english teachers i know. she works with all of her students on a personal level when there is a potential problem brewing with not understanding. she says, says it 7x and you'll learn, if not ask for HELP!
SHE IS A FUN TEACHER WITH ALOT TO GIVE TO HER CLASSES. SHE GETS DOWN ON THE LEVEL OF THE STUDENTS AND REALLY WORKS WITH THEM. SHE IS AN AWESOME TEACHER!!!!
she is off the hook! best english teacher at FCCJ.
This teacher is absolutely wonderful! She has an awesome personality and is always eager to help. Her teachering style is great also, she makes it easy to understand.I've taken her every semester since I began college. I thinks she just fantastic!!!!!
Easy as heck, and is very nice.
Mrs. d is a very good teacher. I had so much fun in the class that I'm going to take her for Comp 1.
She is one of the best teacher I've ever had! She helps your writing skills and explains very clear on the assignments prior to quizzes and test. She is also funny!!! I recommend that you can take her for the semester!
The best professor walking. Very inspirational.
I have had a lot of English teachers in the past, and NONE of them can stack up to what Mrs. D can do. I was failing her class up until finals.That's when she worked with me ALOT and never gave up on me, and I came out with a C rather than an F.
I hate writting, but I loved this class. She made it fun to take the course. She was always willing to work with you, if you needed help. Great personnality to!
Best English teacher at FCCJ! I took her for both ENC1101 and ENC1102. My entire table in ENC1102 was filled with classmates from ENC1101. That should tell you something right there. A killer teacher, I'd take her again if she taught anything else.
She is the best english teacher I've had. Her class was fun, interesting and easy.
I had her for both ENC 1101 and 1102!! One of the best teachers I have had at FCCJ...and that is saying a lot. She inspires you to write. I will never forget her!! P.S. If she reads this...YOU ROCK!!!
Dominique you are the greatest.I had been out of school for 20 years,because of the teaching style you have I was able to complete all required English's and to include Lit2000 with and (A).keep up the good work. Thanks Dominique
She was hands down the best teacher I ever had at FCCJ, and possibly EVER. If you have the opportunity to take her, do it. She's pretty liberal, but she won't hold it against you if you disagree and she encourages intelligent debates.
She is one of the best English Professor you would every want.
This professor is one of the best teacher at FCCJ. She is very good at what she does. She is also very helpful in all that she teaches. That's what makes her such a Great Professor, like no other.
She was so awesome and very helpful! I never liked English until I had her.
Makes English and writing very easy to learn. Guaranteed to see previous students enrolled in her ENC0021 class inrolled in her 1101 class. Very funny and open mined. Show up to class and participate and you will get a good grade.
I loved this English Teacher. She made writing papers fun. If only all college classes were this great. She made learning fun. A++++ teacher.
Hands down Mrs. Diffenbach is the BEST prof at FCCJ. I cant remember a teacher who will work with you (PERSONALLY) on your writing and how you can make it better. The only two ways a person can fail the class is if (1) a person dose not come to class, and (2) is a person plaqerizes a paper (which she does NOT tolerate).
She's the best FCCJ has - she'll help you with any problem - financial aid, scheduling, graduation, etc. she deserves an award - if all the profs at FCCJ were like her, the school would have to turn students away due to overcrowding. You rock Mrs. D!!!!!!
SHE IS VERY GOOD A TEACHER
She makes you feel like you are the only person in the room even when there are 15 to 20 other people there. She goes over everything thats on exams. She prepared me for ENC1101.
No Comments
She's an excellent and outstanding teacher. I've never had an english teacher this good in all my years of being in school. I can actually say that I walked away from this class carrying a something I learned with me. Being in her class had my a better writer. She has a great personality and is willing to do anything she can to help her students.
I recommend that you take her she is very good it doesnt any better than her.
Great Lit/Eng professor!! Very personable. Really shows a love for what she does and what she teaches.
she is a cool teacher and she is down to earth. I would suggest to every that asks "get Mrs. D!"
THIS WAS THE BEST TEACHER I HAD SINCE BEING IN COLLEGE EVEN HIUGHSCHOOL. SHE MADE LEARNING SO INTRESTING. IF YOU WANNA ENJOY READING AND UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU LEARN AND WRITE... GET MS. DOMINIQUE.
I LOVE THIS TEACHER, TAKE HER IF YOU WANT AN A OR B. YOU ONLY HAVE TO RIGHT 4 PAPERS WHICH ARE NOT VERY LONG AND YOU CAN RE-DUE THEM IF YOU DON'T DO WELL THE FIRST TIME. JUST TRY AND YOU WILL COME OUT ON TOP.
Mrs. Diffenbach is a AWESOME teacher, but I was reading the last 2 ratings and I couldnt help but notice the obvious mispelling of SIMPLE words.
GREAT TEACHER!! very helpful!! very understanding..ov er great person!!
She is a great teacher!!!!! I had her for Comp B, and I loved her so much that I wanted to take her again. I really recommed her to anyone. You will come out of her class with a better undertsanding of English. She is very down to earth and very understanding of all her students needs.
I love this teacher. she's very helpful. and you can re-write your papers if you don't do well the firt time. there is a little reading that you will have to do but not much take her if you are not a good at writing papers.
Very Good!!
wonderful teacher. taking her class you will understand alot, and if not, she is very very helpful and down to earth...GREAT TEACHER!!! :)
Not only is Mrs. Diffenbach very easy, but she fundamentaly help you learn how to write a complete paper. She understands what the student needs and will work hard with you to achieve that goal.
Mrs. Dieffenbach is a great teacher! I recommend her to anyone looking to improve english.
She is a very great teacher I enjoy her class. If you do the work it's an easy A
write your papers and journals and show up for class and you will pass! She is extremely helpful and will work with you! Super easy class and anyone can pass with an A if you come to class! ATTENDANCE is a must!
Excellent professor She teaches you how to write a paper. Shes very helpful if you need it. Attendance is a must but you can attend another one of her classes to get your attendance points if you will miss a class. Do your papers, journals, & come to class and you can get an A. She makes class fun. You get to revise 2 papers for a better grade.
I loved this professor! She is a gem! If you want a professor who is fun yet challenging, Prof. D is the one for you. She is very helpful and answers questions and emails promptly! Will take her again!
She was a great teacher. Was not excited about having to take this class but she made the class time go quickly and the writing easy. Would highly reccomend taking her.
Dieffenbach is a fantastic professor with an easy-going class atmosphere. She is very slack on the deadlines for your journals, but deducts points for turning in your 3 out of class essays. I think I enjoyed the in class discussions the most. Enjoys what she's doing and wants you to enjoy the class as well.
Great teacher! She is a very caring professor, who is very passionate about her work! Very easy teacher as long as you show up and turn in all of your assignments! She has a great sense of humor and provides a wonderful classroom environment!
Professor diffenbach is a great teacher, she teaches where you can understand and also enjoy the class at the same time.
Dominique is a fabulous instructor focused on teaching students the foundation for composing a variety of essay and research format papers. If you attend the class as scheduled, are on time, and do the work you are sure to get a good grade.
I am a mature, returning student. Professor Dieffenbach has given me the motivation to continue with my education in a positive, caring way.
Good teacher! Easy teacher! She always helped the students out, and I actually learned something!
She was helpful and tried to make teaching us fun. She asks for our input and asks relevent questions. I would take her again!
I've taken her twice in both enc 1 and nonfiction. She was always exciting and interactive. She loves what she does, and pays attention to the individual minds in her class. No intimidation but there is structure and discipline.
She is the most down to earth professor. Must take this class for both English Comps. As long as you follow her notes on your papers, you will do far beyond your expectations. Wonderful person!
took her for english and im taking her class again because its so much fun. probably the best english teacher ive had. her assignments are straight to the point and easy. just make sure you do it and you'll pass. and dont skip class. it helps towards your grade too.
she's great
She was GREAT! she is funny and laid back. She is easy to talk to and gets to know her students. Overall she made it fun Do you work and don't miss class and you'll get an A!
This teacher is the best English teacher at kent campus! I have had her 3 times and have loved it everytime... she is not easy ... you do have to work hard ,but as long as you do what your supposed to do you will get a good grade! If you go to every class you do not have to take the final which is really nice at the end of the term! TAKE HER!!!!
Great professor. She is very fair and gives you the opportunity to correct your papers. Perfect Attendance and you don't have to take the final. I looked forward to the class because she made it very interesting. It was a pleasure taking this class and I would not hesitate to take another class with her if I needed it.
She is a wonderful teacher that obviously enjoys her job and wants her students to succeed. You definately want to take her for any class that you can.
Great professor! I looked forward to her class. Learned alot. If you put in some time & write your 3 papers,do your easy journals, and come to class, you'll get an A. Gives you a chance to revise papers. If perfect attendance, then you don't have to take Final. Was a pleasure listening to her and having group discussions. Will take for ENC1102!
I was lucky I took this class. it's so much fun!
The best English professor on campus!! She always makes herself available to answer your questions, and tries to help you no matter what issue you have. I would recommend her to everyone.
I NEVER SEEMED TO GET ALONG WITH MY ENGLISH TEACHERS EVER, BUT I HAD NO PROBLEM AT ALL WITH MRS. D! SHE IS ALWAYS AVAILABLE AND NEVER MAKES ANYTHING TO HARD FOR YOU TO LEARN. ATTEND EVERYDAY BECAUSE IF YOU DO YOU DON'T HAVE TO TAKE THE FINAL EXAM.. TRUST ME ITS WORTH IT.. AND I ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND THIS TEACHER TO ANYONE TAKING ENGLISH! -JARED B.
Great Teacher, if you don't miss a class, you don't have to take final exam! Have to do journals, but they are easy. Pretty much always lets you go home early!
Best English teacher I've ever had, highly recommended. Attendance is mandatory especially if you don't want to have to take the final. I've taken for for 1101 & 1102 and am taking her for another class too. Very good techer.
I Love Professor D. She's the Greatest!! She's passionate about teaching. This is an easy ?A? if you want to learn. I?m 42 years old, and I?ve earned an ?A?.IF I can get an ?A? anyone can. She?s very laid back.Be on time, do your home work,and never miss class. She drops your lowest test grade for perfect attendance in ENC0021
GReat teacher! I love the class.. attendance is mandatory if u miss a lot of classes u grade will go done if u do u homework and turn it in on time u will pass with A+
She is the best english teacher! I would reccomend her for anything and everything! I took her for enc1101 & 1102 & humanities. All 8 week classes and I rarely ever struggled. I know when I use this site I'm not sure to believe all comments. But trust me, just come to class so you dont have to take the final..get an A!
wonderful teacher.
She is a great teacher; she is very helpful. Dont take this class if you expect a grade spoon-fed to you; Laziness pays off now, but hard work will pay off later.
Great class and professor. If you don't miss a class you don't have to take the final. We had 3 essays and 2 of them you could fix. Easy A!! Take her she's Great!
Awesome! You will work, but you will learn so much. I would take her again.
Great Professor! Wasn't a fan of english, but professor Dieffenbach made it bearable. There is alot of work, and attendance is mandatory, but if you to what is asked this will be an easy A. Trust me.
Prof. Dieffenbach is awesome! I had her three semesters ago and she's still one of my favorites. Her class isn't like any other English class I've ever had, and it was absolutely awesome!
she is amazing!!! take this class. if you attend every class you wont have to take the final. there are three essays and they are easy...
SHE IS A GREAT TEACHER.VERY SWEET PERSON. AFTER BEING AWAYS FROM A CLASSROOM SETTING AFTER 10 YEARS, SHE MADE ME FEEL WELCOMED AND EAGER TO LEARN AGAIN. I WOULD DEFINATELY TAKE ANOTHER CLASS WITH HER.
Great teacher. This was my first College teacher and she made me feel good about college. She is very fun and her class isn't hard. I dont like to write all that much, but after taking her clas I dont mind it as much any more. Take her class you will thank me later. Text Book not required for class I hardly used it.
TAKE THIS CLASS!!! SHE GIVES EXTRA CREDIT EVERY TEST AND BEFORE THE TEST SHE GOES OVER IT AND THE EXTRA CREDIT.SO EASY IF CANT PASS THE CLASS U SHOULD STOP WASTEING YOUR TIME. I LOVE HER
she is a great teacher she will help you with anything and she will tell you the quetions for midtrems and finals but if you show up to every class you are exempt from the final. she is so cool
the course that i took was only eight weeks. went by quick you where always working on reports and you have to read a book every class period you had a quiz on the book. but the class was not hard you attened every class, and you do what is asked than you will be ok
She's great! We had to write a "journal" every week on a topic she gave us, and then three essays. Also if we came to class every week, no final exam. She always seemed like she was there to help anyone with any questions too.
Great Professor. She is one of the best professors I?ve ever had. Very comprehensive, patient, and helpful. Be there, do your assignments on time and you don?t have to take the final. If you have to take the final do exactly what she say and you won?t have any problem. Excellent professor.
She was awesome! I took her for ENC 1101, and she was very helpful, and always seemed to open questions. If you are going to talk while she is talking, do not take her becuase she does not like it. If you are there every day, you will not have to take the final. If you do what is expected of you, you will do fine.
Mrs. D is the BEST! She is the most helpful English Professors at FCCJ. I enjoyed writing better than I ever have before. Her class is fun. If you don't understand something, she will explain it 7x. She's the best!
I used to have a hard time writing before this class but she is extremely helpful and wants everyone to do well in her class
She's awesome! If you attend her class everyday you don't have to take the final! Three papers 1,000 words, really easy to write as long as you follow directions. She's nice and wants to help her studnets. I deffinetly would take her again if I could, but I already took all my english classes with her.
Mrs. D is an amazing teacher! She helped me so much! pay attention and you will get an A! i missed 2 classes very easy to catch up! you wont regret taking her!
great teacher...easy, right to the point, fun class, enjoyed it.
A factastic teacher! I hadn't written a research paper in 10 years and she made it absolutely painless! Quizzes are easy if you read the book. There is no reason you shouldn't ace this class. Effort must be made, but it's so worth it. Take this teacher for every class that you can! You won't regret it.
english comp 1- Great class taught by a great teacher. Not hard at all. 3 papers, min of 1000 words. 10 journals, two in class writings. everyone takes the midterm but if you go to class every day, NO FINAL. whats better. Highly Highly recomended. you wont be sorry. i got a 95 and i hate writing. a breeze.
She is completely amazing. I love her teaching style. She is really funny, and knows her stuff. She makes coming to class worth it. I absolutely adore her, and i can't wait to take her again and again.
This teacher is all that, and a bag of chips. If you attend all class you can skip the fnal exam, and the work is easy to keep up with. It's almost impossible fail this class, unless you just do nothing.
Take her! she is so amazing. she teaches everything in a way that you can understand. only 3 essays and 10 journals. She cares. She knows each of her students and remembers what their paper was about. I'm taking her for all my English, and maybe a humanities class.
Great professor!!! She helped anyone who needed it and was willing to do it. 3 essays and 10 journals. I pulled off an A+ which is not something common to me. Take this professor or you will regret it.
Mrs. D is amazing...def the best teacher i have ever had. we had about 3 papers, which she checks before u hand in so u can fix them and get an A and u only have 10 journals which r so easy and simple. She was so nice. If u go to class everydy then u dont have to take the final. EAsy A if u come to class :)
She was a very helpful teacher. There wasn't a lot of coursework, just 3 essays and 10 journals. You can tell she really cares about the subject and her students. I would take her if you want an easy A.
Great woman, smart, warm and understanding. Very willing to do for you if you are willing to TRY. Would take her again. Not a hard class, but you MUST like to read.
I love her class.English was not my favor subject but, she actually the knowledge is really useful in work world. take her she is wonderful!!!
English is my second language; however I think her class is very easy for me to understand. Although I know I did not do so well on my in class writting, she give me a C to pass. Aslo, this is 8 weeks class, but I think I handle it very good because she gives very little homework and lots of time to finish athome writing. Therefore, I recommend her
I thought this class would be somewhat difficult because i wasn't good at English, but that was not the case. Mrs. D is really helpful and makes learning English VERY easy. Basically it's 3 1k word essays (not that hard) and 10 100 word journals (Very Very easy). There is one midterm (easy) and no final for perfect attendance. Highly recommend.
I don't know what the hype with her is about. She grades very harsh on all your papers. She will NOT teach you how to become a better writer. You're ON YOUR OWN basically. Just a news flash for those people bragging about not having to take the final, it only counts as 5% of your grade. My advice, take someone else.
Awesome teacher, she is very fare at grading. Complete your assignments and READ THE ASSIGNED BOOK. I?m not that strong in English but I made a good grade. She will help you if you just ask. If you just want your grade handed to you then this is not the professor for you. Over all I enjoyed her class very much.
Great teacher! She is willing to assist whenever needed. If you don?t ask questions, it is your own fault. If you want to learn, take this class. This class is not for the lazy. However, I work fulltime, have full time class schedule and English is not my strongest subject, but was I was happy with my grade. Key to success ?Do the Work?. If you fai
Wonderful with her students, you can make a good grade if you just do you're papers and read the assigned book.
Ms.Dieffenbach is a wonderful teacher. Her talks of hot firemen kept me laughing every day. She is easy to those who do their work. Her midterm is also easy if you actually look over what she teaches you. I would reccomend her to new students at FSCJ and to those who arent that good in english.
as others have posted, you attend all classes and there is no finial, do the 3 essays and 10 journals and you'll pass. i fail enc101 27 yrs ago and i pass this class with an A. she is an outstanding instructor and i would recommend her to all new students. do the work, be on time, turn in all papers on time and make an easy earn A.
fantastic teacher
Awesome prof. that really cares about her students. She will take the time to know each student individually. 2 things, DON'T text in her class, walk out if you have to, and DON'T talk while she's talking. She's not hard, but she doesn't hand out A's like it's nothing. You do work for it, but it's minimal work. Come everyday and get a 100 on final.
Prof Dieffenbach is one of my fav professors so far. She makes the course interesting, and is an interesting person herself. Definitely recommend her to whoever wants a teacher who isn't uptight, and knows what she's talking about.
I really enjoy in her class, and she is my favorite one. I take her ENC 1101 and 1102. She is a really good instructor and always encourage students to do their best. Strongly recommend to others.
she's excellent professor and she makes her teaching clear and understable and she makes the class so interesting
omg theres none better than professor dieffenbach i loved her sooooooo much :) I was ready to kill my boyfriend when i found out HE had her in the fall and I didnt :(
Professor Dieffenbach is pure awesome. She was one of the first classes I took at the college and she really looked my eyes on my writing technique and how to improve it. And boy did it improve dramatically. If you don't miss a class, you don't have to take the final exam, which was great incentive. I highly suggest you take lots and lots of notes!
She was an awesome professor! Take her, if you don't you will wish you had. If you don't miss a class you don't have to take the final!
You will not regret taking this teacher! shes simply the best! hands down!!!
This is an amazing Teacher. If you keep your mind open, you will learn more than you ever hoped for in this class. She is a sweet person, as well as fair. I can't reccomend her enough. :)
She is such an awesome teacher! You will love her. If you fail it's your own fault. There should be no reason you shouldn't get an A in this class. She has a great sense of humor too.
Simply the best English Professor at FSCJ!
Before I had Ms. D as my professor, I hated writing. However, Ms. D. made writing come alive. She's such a great teacher. She's funny, helpful, and will work with you. If you don't miss any classes then you don't have to take the final exam. If you do have to miss a class then she'll let you do a makeup class. Do your work and you'll do fine. :)
Dominique is awesome. I took her for CompI&II as well as film. Each of her classes were fun, thought provoking, and full of discussion. She is a lenient grader, and an A in the class is not difficult as long as you put forth effort. Highly recommended...and then some.
Mrs. Dieffenbach was very nice and helpful. Although she's very strict and attendance and promptness, she does leave room for extenuating circumstances. I took her class last semester and I passed w/ a 'B'. A few in class writing assignments, several group assignments and about 4 essays. I'd love to take another one of her classes.
I took Mrs. D my first semester, it is now my last semester, and I still have not found a professor that tops her! she is great!!!
Mrs. Dieffenbach was great! She really appreciates when a student has good attendance and shows appreciation for the academics. She was fun and funny, and shows interest in what you have to say. She is helpful, and if you make a mistake she understands as long as you are willing to make an effort to fix the problem. I recommend her!
she is a really good teacher but she snaps o the class. overall i recommand her. Her class its hard all you got to do is come everyday and turn in all your work and youll get a A or B
THE BEST!!!! She is amazing. She is definitely clear in ever direction she gives, if you misunderstood something she will make exceptions. DO THE JOURNALS and MAKE CORRECTIONS TO ESSAYS! Easy A. Enrolled in ENC1102 with her next semester. I WISH SHE WOULD TEACH ALL MY COURSES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This teacher changed how i viewed english. She will help you, and she really puts in the time if u need it... VERY AMAZING i loved her class
SHE ONLY HELPS THE STUDENTS WHO SHE LIKES THE MOST. I ATTENDED THE CLASS EVERYDAY AND DID ALL OF MY WORK. SHE GAVE ME A F. WHEN I ASKED TO HAVE A MEETING WITH HER SHE TOLD ME NO WAY, BUT I WOULD BE ABLE TO TAKE HER CLASS OVER. SHE REALLY THINKS SHE RULES THE WORLD.
i decided to take mrs.dieffenbach for lit200 because i took her for enc1101 and we did the exact same thing. she gives two in class essays and three out of class essays on stories and movies. her class is not hard she is very reasonable TAKE HER!
Knowledgable and fun; she carries herself with a calm confidence. Freethinker with great insight! Do the work as assigned and reap the rewards.
mrs. dieffenbach is a great instructor, if you have to tak eng1101 you need to take her class, if you ever have any problems she is great with helping you out.
Very Helpful, Gave me a lot of insightm one on one training when needed.
OMG AMAZING! she was REALLY nice! amazingly patient and she is funny. i had her first in enc1101 then took her for LIT 2000. i am currently in her ENG1100. i cant get enough of her teaching. i plan to take her next semester also. =]. (little note) class is a LOT easier if you go everyday, AND for going everyday you dont need to take the final! YAY!
Do not take this teacher for creative writing. She is a good LIT2000 teacher. She is smart and funny, but she gets confused between LIT2000 ENC1101 and CRW. She does not understand the creative part. She just teaches it the same as she would teach her English classes.If you go to class and do most of the work its an easy A.But don't take her for CR
I took her for ENC1101, ENC1102, and her film class. She is my favorite professor. I wish there was other classes I could take with her. She helped me a lot with my grammar in my papers. As long as you attend class you don't have to take a final. If you're looking for a english professor take her!!!
I loved this professor! She knows what she teaches and she cares about her students! She puts all her notes on blackboard so you don't have to "take notes". I had less than 15 min(on average) of homework every night and received an A in her class. I would highly recommend her. I'm definitely taking her for ENC1102!

Excellent professor. I very much enjoyed her class. She cares deeply about student success, but doesn't hand out good grades like nothing: You have to work for it, but she equips you. She doesn't expect anything that isn't taught in class. As a bonus, if you have perfect attendance, you get an automatic 100 on the final.
Ignore the person below, Dominique is an excellent professor. In the Creative Writing class, where there were two mandatory reading assignments, some decided not to read, or even to show up for class until finals and expected to make an "A." Come to class, do the assignments (there arent many) and participate in discussions, and its a breeze!
Perfect English professor
Awesome Class! This was my first class ever at FSCJ. She was really helpful, clearly explained what she expected.Do the work and you will get a good grade. Simple as that. Attendance is mandatory.
Explains what's expected clearly, is availiable when you need her and is fair with her grading. Attendance is very important, miss no days and you have an automatic 100 on your final. She's very smart :)
if you need to take English, take this course. She doesn't hand grades out but is clear with what she expects and will proof read your work for you if you hand it in early for review. You really have to not care at all to get a bad grade in this class. I highly recommend taking her class.
The professor was extremely fair , fun and easy to help in anyway . The best class because we really had fun discussing the topics .I'd strongly recommend this class. I'm sad I don't need any other subjects she teaches . Take her class.
I am in an accelerated course with her currently , and I love her! She is extremely helpful, a ball of energy, and is very intelligent. she knows her English. I'm thinking anout taking her again this fall semester! Great professor! :)
She is great! Knows her stuff and loves what she teaches. Thoroughly enjoyed her class. Well organized and very helpful. Would take her again in a heartbeat.
I took Dominique's ENC1101 class, and loved it, so took her Creative Writing class and was equally impressed; will take all her other classes too! In Creative Writing, we had to write a sonnet, a poem of our choice, and three short stories. All were critiqued by other students in a positive, helpful manner. Thoroughly enjoyed this class!
She is incredibly nice and funny but she's also serious about getting all the work done! Don't miss any class and you don't have to take the final. Definitely recommended.
Professor D is the bomb!! If you love english you will learn something in this class,and if you hate english you will still learn something.She is very knowledgeable.
She knows what she is talking about. Her lit2000 class was very easy. We used our books alot just to read the stories. The stories she chose were interesting. She's good at what she teaches and I think youll be happy to have her as a professor!
You will learn more about Film than you ever wanted to know. Also, you will learn to how movies have changed drastically from the "black-and-white" days to modern day films. Mrs. Dieffenbach is a great professor and is always willing to help.
If you are a serious student take her class. She will give you every opportunity to earn an A. If you are not trying then you will receive the grade you earn. She is always willing to help or answer questions. Mrs. Dieffenbach teaches because she wants to teach, and it shows.
Dieffenbach is a great teacher. Don't take her course if you are not serious about learning. Her class is set up so anyone has the opportunity to get an A and she is willing to help you get the grade you deserve. She is organized so pay attention to the syllabus.
I was hesitant about ENC1101 at first but she made it great. She is willing to help you, but you have to put forth the effot.She doesn't tolerate laziness. I highly recommend her!We had journals to write and a few papers but she was willing to help a all... GREAT TEACHER!!!!!!
She is awesome and super sweet. I swear I was a horrible writer until taking her for ENC 1101 &1102, she is amazing. Attendance is mandatory but then final exam isn't if you don't miss a class. TAKE HER!
Awesome professor!
This Professor completely lacks in effort with helping, lectures, and clearly stating what is expected. Worst Professor yet.
Professor Dieffenbach is just amazing. She is extremely clear as to what it is that she requires of you. Shes passionate and filled with knowledge. There is a resonable amount of writing and there are no surprises. Work hard and attend class and you will receive the grade you deserve. Attend all classes and get an automatic 100% on final. Love Her.
She makes class fun. Discussions are a big part of class. The essays are also interesting.
She is a great professor who is slightly tough on essays, but not too bad. I'd definitely recommend taking her if you're interested in any of her courses.
Professor Dieffenbach is amazing! She made class interesting and she lets you know what is expected of you. Show up to class and do the essays and an A is yours!
YOu can get an A in this class. Don't talk while she is teaching and you are fine. Turn in your work on time. She is a fair teacher. If you don't pass... then you just didn't want too. She is the bomb dot com
She's a very interesting professor! She makes writing funny and doesn't make harsh remarks about your writing. She's very open to our creative level and actually encourages it. If you don't want to read your work to the class, she'll gladly do it for you. So don't let the oral presenting intimidate you! I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!
If you want to learn take her. Excellent professor, very approachable, has passion about what she teaches. Don't waste her time if you aren't serious about learning.
Great professor, very willing to help. 1 research paper, 1 themed analysis paper, and 1 compare and contrast paper. All papers 1500 words. Good class with reasonable expectations.
Good professor. She cares very much about her student's success. Do the assignments & follow requirements & you will do well. Not an incredibly easy class, but definitely passable.
Fantastic professor. I'm taking her for Film in the Spring. She knows her stuff and is more than happy to help you. Make sure you read the assigned stories and remember names! Write your papers and bring them in to her. She'll help you correct them if needed. Great professor, but a better person. She pushes you to excel.
I took this professor for film. She is an excellent professor who most definitely cares about her students' success. Film as a class was such a breeze. You just watch a movie every class and discuss it. Take a few vocab tests and write two papers about films. I recommend this class for a humanities credit. Great teacher as well, strongly recommend!
amazing professor MUST TAKE!!!!! all you do is show up to class watch a movie and have a group discussion after. there is a vocabulary quiz each week but they are easy if you study them at least the night be for. there are two essays the entire semester on any movie you want. if you show up to every class then you do not have to take the final exam
SHE IS GREAT! SHE IS BLUNT AND TO THE POINT. SHE BASICALLY EXPECTS WHAT A RESPONSIBLE ADULT IN COLLEGE SHOULD BE DOING WHICH IS SHOW UP TO CLASS ON TIME, DON'T PLAY ON YOUR PHONE DURING CLASS, AND PAY ATTENTION. I HATE ENGLISH CLASSES AND SHE MADE IT TOLERABLE. SHE IS ALSO PRETTY ATTRACTIVE FOR AN "OLDER" WOMAN :)
She seems to understand how college kids brains work. She is straight to the point and often let us out of class early. The essays were very easy and if you go to her office she will help you with them before you turn them in.
Professor Dieffenbach is the best! I loved her class! It was a lot of fun, and I learned a lot! She also told everyone on the first day to keep what they write pretty clean, so there wasn't a lot of bad language or questionable content in the other students' work. I would definitely recommend his class to anyone interested in writing!
Professor Dieffenbach is a great instructor. Her discussions are insightful. She does not tolerate excuses. As long as you do your work, you will earn a good grade. Vocab quizzes are given every week and two essay for the semester. She reward those who attend class every week (Exempt from final).
If you go to every class you dont have to take the final exam its an automatic 100. Also many stories to read but easy and if you dont read them you will fail her quizzes.
This class was amazing she is very helpful and funny. There is no textbook required. Make sure you come to class each day and you will not have to take a final. Work hard and turn everything in and you will pass with an A. Make sure you turn back in the essays she grades for a better grade. You wont regret taking this class she is the best.
Prof. Dieffenbach reawakened the writer in me, and helped me work on my weaker suits. She works with you if you work with her, and are a good student. She will not go out of her way for you if you slack off. If the majority of the class seems to be slacking off, she will turn an assignment into a pop quiz. Do your homework. It matters.
In my opinion, Mrs. D is the BEST teacherprofessor I've had so far! She is so funny, and just an outstanding person! I would recommend her to anyone! Sign up early, because her classes go quick!
I found Professor Dieffenbach to be an amazing instructor. She is completely vested in your success and will go way above and beyond to help. If you don't miss any classes then you don't have to take the final. Grading criteria is presented early in the course and she sticks by that. Great professor. I would totally take her again.
Absolutely LOVED Dominique! She gave clear instruction and will check your paper beforehand if you bring it to her. If you don't do well in this class, it is truly your own fault! She is so willing to help out and answer any questions put to her. I still write very well in my other classes because I took her class and learned from her. TAKE HER!!
This woman is the one of the absolute best! She really wants you to learn what she teaches, which makes one do their all. Being a mother of two young children there were lots of tough times for me during this course. This woman took soooo much time with me, even allowed me to take a quiz that I'd missed in her personal office. She is truly amazing!
I had her for ENC1101 and ENC1102. Part of your grade is attendance. If you don't miss any classes, you don't have to take the final. You get an automatic 100 on it. There's 3 papers you have to type(1000-1500 words each). She doesn't like slackers. Do what she expects of you and you will get the A. I don't like writing but aced all my papers.
Professor Dieffenbach is awesome! Gives an ample amount of time to do work. I took an 8 week class, and the workload was average, did not seem rushed. She was very good at giving feedback and was very helpful. If you are lazy, do not take her class. If you want to pass, attend class, participate and do the work. She pushes for you to be great!
She was straightforward and fair, but... It was difficult to enjoy the films she put on because half the class felt the need to LOUDLY chatter with each other the entire time the movie played. She sat outside the room and rarely ever told them to stop talking. If you take her film class, please keep your GD mouth shut while watching the movies!
great professor!!!!!! just come to class everyday and do your work as expected guarantee you will pass. also you will not have to take final exam if you come to class everyday!!!!!!!!
She is so helpful and HILARIOUS. If you have to miss or just miss a class, you have to let her know so you can come to another class. You won't have to take the final if you go to all classes. She treats you like an adult, but she will help you when needed. I will take her again for another class!
Professor Dieffenbach helped me so much while i was taking her class. There is three papers and she will revise your papers before you turn them in if you ask her. She's very genuine and funny and very good at what she does. You definitely have to work for your grade but she is always willing to help. I would recommend her to anyone!
Professor Dominiqu is a great professor will help you when its needed but you will have to be careful shes a tough grader with you papers that you will have to write but the in the class group assignments and the homework assigned will help you with writing a paper and meeting her grading expectations. i would take her again.
Professor Diffenbach is awesome she truly cares for her students and wants everyone to succeed. In ENC1102 there are 3 papers that range 1,000-1500 words, couple quizzes and tests. Make sure you purchase indian creek chronicles and read it the quizzes she gives the questions come straight out of each chapter. They are about 10 questions each quiz
Never taking another English professor besides her. Essays have to be a certain length and she's meticulous about grading, but she's available to help whenever you need it! Come to every class and there's no final, miss one day and you can make it up and still not have to take the final. She's amazing, I recommend taking her class.
Best professor for English, Love her. Do you work, don't skip class and you will pass. Taking her class I have learn how to write better essays.
I love professor Dieffenbach, by far the easiest English class I have taken. All you have to do is show up for class and do the work and you'll pass. I would definitely take her again.
I love this teacher! She gives excellent feedback and really knows what she is talking about. For anyone that struggles in English, she is a great pick for a teacher. Her assignments can get difficult but she makes it so easy to get a hold of her if you need help. BTW come to every class & you won't have to take the final! Would take again!
Went into this class with the assumption that I can't write, and I left knowing I'm a good writer. She goes the extra mile for you if you and allows you to bring papers to her before they are due for corrections. Show up to class, turn your papers in on time, and do the homework if you meet all three of these things you should at least get a B.
She was a great teacher. I would definitely choose her as my professor again.
This is a great teacher. I strongly suggest taking this class with her.
THE BEST!! THANK YOU FOR STAYING ON ME! BLESSINGS
Great professor, I would suggest taking at least one class with her. She post grades right away and she always gives you the required study material ahead of time. I really enjoyed taking her class.
Do the work, and she will work with you. Come prepared and you will pass.
Shes's awesome took her twice. 1101 and 1102. She wants you to pass but she gives you what you earned. Homework is in between a lot and a little if you get what I mean. If you come to class everyday, you'll be happy at the end. Wish there were more teachers like her.
She one of the Best English Professors are kent campus. If you are not a good writer she will prepare you to write better. I took her for Enc1101 & Enc1102. I wish there were more professior like her who is passionate for her students.
Prof. Dieffenbach's class was pretty easy and I don't like to write. you have three papers, and no final if you don't miss any classes. Her lectures are straight and to the point, and is willing to help with your assignments in anyway. Her grading is not that hard, just make sure that you take her feedback and improve throughout the semester.
Prof. Dieffenbach was awesome!! I came into her class not knowing anything about writing, and came out much more confident! She has 3 papers and gives you plenty of time to do them! She even allows you to revise them! If you come to every class there wasn't a final! Highly recommend her!
As long as you put in the effort, this should be an easy A. There is: a final that is omitted if you have perfect attendance, three essays--of which she'll look at and edit if you finish earlier than the deadline--and ten journals which are graded by completion. I definitely became a better writer, both creatively and grammatical after her class.
There are three essays: 1500 word research essay, 1000 word film analysis, 1000 word compare and contrast between film and book. As long as you get her to look at them before it's due, you should get a good grade. Grammar and MLA matters. You have to read the book in order to pass. Highly recommend her.
Mrs. Dominique was a very good professor. She would definitely work with you on things you need help with and breaks it down. she's a very easy class to past just make sure you show up and do your work. It is an English class so you will have to write essays and as long as you do that and show up to class, you're pretty much pass !!! Love her!!
She is amazing. I love her class. As long as you show up and do the work, then you can't fail her class. She does require you to do all 3 papers. If you neglect to do one, then she will fail you. However, her attendance policy is amazing. As long as you don't miss a class, then you don't have to take the final exam.
She really looks for the class to participate, and always pairs the class in groups for discussions. Take advantage of her checking essays before turn in, huge grade saver! Don't miss any days, and you won't have to take the final.
Amazing teacher! I'd take her again and again if possible!
Professor Dieffenbach is one of the best college professors at FSCJ. She cares about students success and I will be definitely taking her film studies class
Professor Dieffenbach is one of the best professors to take for ENC1101. Goes out her way to help students pass her class. Total grade saver and likes to do group assignments. I will be taking her for ENC1102.
She is a really cool lady. She is funny and engages the class. You will learn how to use proper grammar which is extremely helpful for those of us who have not been in high school recently. Three papers and one short book to read with two quizzes. The papers take up most of your time (1000-1500 words). Attend every class and there is no final.
One of the best professor's I've ever had. Super fun class and she is extremely helpful to her students. If you like REAL cinema, check this class out.
would take a while to respond to emails and grade assignments. otherwise very helpful and precise in her expectations.
Professor Dieffenbach is a pleasure to work with. She is inspiring, and she gives her students a fair chance at being successful. Professor Dieffenbach is down-to-earth and relatable. She can have a bit of an abrasive edge if she is crossed, but otherwise, she will motivate her students and continue to encourage and support their endeavors.
This professor does not care whether you fail or not and she is terrible at grading assignments in a timely manner. Her being unable to grade assignments in a timely manner greatly affected my grades and prevented me from being able to see my progress and if im able to have enough TIME to bring grades up. This professor was very rude to students,
and does not care whether she publicly embarrasses a student. She also does not teach writing objectives that are any different from basic highschool ENC1101. Most assignments were biased as well. If she didnt like a students perspective, opinion, or idea then she would criticize it. If the students assignments arent written her way with her biased
perspective then there is no way you are able to pass. This professor and course itself was very dissapointing and I would never take it again.
One of the best professors that I have ever had. If you have a question, she will answer it without any problem. About the class, you need to write three papers and read Indian Creek Chronicles. If you don't read the book, it will affect your grade because there are 4 quizzes about the book. She cares about your education. Great Professor!!!
Awesome professor! Attendance is very important to her. She is very knowledgeable and helps all students to succeed.
Professor Dieffenbach was very good with giving feedback on everything she graded. English is not my best subject, but her class is still passable. There is quite a lot of writing, and a few tests throughout the class. She assigns reading from the "required" material handbook for the class, but in all honesty you can get away with to buying it.
This was my first college class I took in 10 years since graduating high school. It was a great way to start, she gives you the chance to proof read your papers before you submit the final. I made an A in her class. I enjoyed the papers because they were cool topics, she gives you a baseline and you pick what you want to write about.
She's very particular about the formatting of papers. You HAVE to read the book she assigns, there will be about 5 quizzes on it. There is 3 papers and you have a week to turn them in late along with a revision period. You must write these papers to pass. She's very nice and lets out early alot. Bare in mind I'm a person who loves English.
Amazing professor! I've taken her for so many courses and wish I could take more. Attendance is absolutely mandatory. Great feedback on papers and gives you a second chance fora better score. I highly recommend
I absolutely love Professor Dieffenbach and how she teaches. I took her Film Studies class and absolutely loved it. I loved seeing the different genres of movies. Attendance is mandatory only if you don't want to take the final exam and if you don't want to miss any of the movies or information. Definitely study the terms.
If you don't miss a single class you don't take a final. Very easy class as long as you put in some type of effort. She allows revisions for essays. Just make sure to do all the homework and attend every class and it is a sure A. She's a good teacher with an easy class.
love her! easy class and if you submit every assignment, with some kind of effort, and do the essay revisions, then there is literally no way to fail. she is always there to help and she's relatable and super funny. lectures are interactive and fun! (there is timed writing)
Film Studies was the best class ever. Majority of the class is spent watching amazing films. She cares about the subject, and wants you to as well. She makes it an easy A as long as you somewhat pay attention and do the few assignments for the course.
I took this class 100% online. It was a little difficult to understand the concepts of the content for that reason. She is a little bit of a tough grader. There is not too much work, though. Definitely not an easy A, but not too hard if you really try.
She is a bit condescending, rather than teaching her students she will just give you a grade and I dont believe she gives all the material needed to pass the class, for ex her instructions for her assignments / rubrics are very unclear and misleading.
We were writing about movies in my class Professor D chose really good ones. It was such an enjoyable class, and I believe if you showed up for all classes you didn't have to take a final. Would totally take her class again. She was super helpful.
She is a good professor, however she doesnt answer emails when you need her help. She is a bit condescending to students and she would look upset when coming into class. I had other classes to finish my work but she didnt care if I was behind my work.
Please avoid this professor at all costs. The only reason she has a good grade on here is because film studies is easy. She grades papers unfairly and will give you an F for not liking your content. Shes also very rude and will belittle students for not agreeing with her. I would never take her again or recommend her to anyone.
She doesn't seem very happy about communicating with students. I tried to avoid communicating with her at all cost. She seems extremely rude.
Would absolutely recommend, she is a caring professor and very willing to work with her students.
Professor Dominique is one of the best professors at FSCJ! Her film studies class was one class that I looked forward to going to every week! Although it is an "easy A", if you don't put in the time to learn the names of the actors, directors etc. and don't study the vocabulary terms, you will fail! BONUS: Perfect attendance No final!
I love Dominique!!! I would take her again in a heartbeat, and I recommend her to anyone and everyone. I took her ENC1101 and ENC1102. Not only does she make it a priority to help you excel in her class, but she also genuinely cares about each one of her students. She is easily my favorite professor. If you take her class, you will not regret it.
I took Professor Dieffenbach's ENC1101 14-week online course. There was 1 grammar test & 1 essay due every other week and 1 assignment & 1 discussion on the alternating weeks. She gave great feedback and had clear grading criteria. She responded to emails quickly and helped me gain confidence in my writing! I really enjoyed taking her class!
Attendance is mandatory. If you miss 2 class periods you have to take a final. Sometimes it felt like we were in class for nothing. You have to read the books in depth or you wont pass the quizzes. She kinda has a smart/sassy mouth and I didnt like that.
Take this professor!! Best humanities class if you need the credit. All you have to do is show up.
She is horrible at explaining instructions of the assignments, she doesnt even teach the class there are no lectures no videos of her even trying to teach this class and its all online which makes it even harder. When you do ask questions youre not given any help either. I do not recommend her for this online course at all.
I took professor Dieffenbach for ENC1101, we had an essay every other week as well as a test. Answered emails very quickly. Essays were easy to pass, but she does not give good feedback. MLA format is important in this course. None of the tests were proctored and she does allow you to retake tests for extra credit at the end of the course.
Take advantage of her essay proofreadings! A journal writing every week, and an essay every other week. Easy quizzes, occasional timed writings. If you do not miss any classes you do not have to take the final. Helpful and gives good feedback. Put in some effort and you will pass.
Professor D is by far the BEST Professor I have ever had. She really does care about her students and will do what she can to assist. She gives great feed back and wants to make sure everyone succeeds. Take her! You will NOT regret it. She does everything she can to help you if you just ask!
Professor Dieffenbach gives clear, concise feedback on your papers and discussion board posts. Absolutely would take her class again.
Professor Dieffenbach is AMAZING! I failed my first attempt at English 1 with a different teacher and Professor Dieffenbach encouraged me and taught me in a way I could learn and now I am more confident in writing essays and just English all together. I hope I can take her for ENC1102 next semester. 10/10 Highly recommend!
Truly such a good teacher for english, I have improved SO much with my writing because of her. Sometimes she's a bit of a harsher grader, but it's only bc she wants you to improve. She is a funny lady to talk to, and I have enjoyed taking her class because I have just learned so much about writing essays. TAKE HER!
This has been my very first teacher at FSCJ that I have not liked or the way she grades things. Very hard grader and can be very rude.
Professor Dieffenbach is an excellent English professor. My writing improved tremendously in her class and I'm quite excited for ENC1102! While she can be rough with grading, she explains why and how you can improve with future work. I will be forever grateful she was my ENC1101 professor, very professional and helpful. Take this class!
She honestly cares. She wants you to learn and succeed and will give you every opportunity to do both while being entertained. She works hard to find lessons that are as engaging as she can make them while still ticking all the required boxes of the course. I will be looking for her classes in the future.
Clearly knows next to nothing about the subject. Basically a high school class. Anybody who really likes movies should avoid.
This class is absolutely ridiculous. It requires me to do volunteer work for a grade. Im doing online school to work around my schedule. Im 36, have kids and a job and a house to run. I have no time for this. Tried to explain, but my grade dropped a whole letter. This class is supposed to set me up to succeed in college, not set me up to fail.
Worse teacher I’ve ever had. She expects you to write essays on prompts that are barely worth two sentences, and her grading is extremely tough you will be docked for every single small mistake with no care given to help correct said mistakes. Ended up with a B in the class but had to work extremely hard
Professor Dieffenbach is amazing. Show up for EVERY class, pay attention, follow all guidelines and do the work. She is willing to meet with students during her office hours for help and feedback before papers are due. I put off taking this class for 20 years because I didn't think I would do well and I made and A. Would love more classes with her!
She was a great professor. I took this course online and the homework was easy to understand and write about. She gives great feedback on assignments. My least favorite thing was the discussions, but that's not really her fault. I enjoyed this course and would definitely take her classes again.
She is very fair, and I enjoyed being her student. Pay attention to her feedback, make sure to read all instructions, proof read your work, and you'll do great! Her prompts were a little vague, but she's always quick to answering questions.
Wonderful professor, and a very fair grader. Loved having her so much for my ENC1101 class, that I had to take her again for ENC1102. Cares about students, but can have a tough love kind of relationship with them. All-in-all, I love her!
Each week alternates between a practice paragraph and an essay. Ended up having 8 essays in total. It can be a lot but she lets you know what areas you need to focus on. I only got a C because I chose not to write my last essay. Overall she's a good teacher and wants her students to succeed.
I have a good GPA, but this professor.. She VERY prejudice against anyone who does not agree and steps out of bound on anyone who does not line up and agree with her ideals, and what she feels is right politically, this is supposed to be an english class. She has told student if you don't agree with her on these topics she will FAIL you. AVOID!!!
English is not my first language, but her teaching inspires me to like writing. I took ENC1101 and ENC1102 with her. She is incredible. Do homework early and ask her if you are still confused. She is willing to help her students to succeed. Now I am not scared of writing anymore. Working hard does pay off. Take your responsibility in any class!
I chose this teacher because of the seemingly great reviews on this site. THEY ARE ALL WRONG. This professor was exceedingly anal about insignificant details. Although she stated that the practice paragraphs didn't have a rubric, I was counted off for not using APA/MLA style. And when I did use one, she stated it was still wrong. I could never win!
I took 3 of Mrs. Dieffenbach's classes and enjoyed them all. (ENC1&2 and ENG2100) She's very firm about her attendance/ tardiness policies but also very up front about the rules and expectations. I learned a lot from her.
There were 7 modules, pretty much each module had a discussion, paragraph, quiz, and essay. Plenty of time to do everything in a full semester. Barely any reading. Not a tough grader, I made a lot of mistakes and still made good grades. Responded to my questions in just minutes, very helpful!
Dominique is an absolute gem! I took her for my first college class, and I was so nervous, but she's amazing. In both ENC1101 and ENC1102, there are three papers you have to write, but they are not bad. She even offers to check over your paper before you turn it in and correct any mistakes. I took her for every class I could. I love her!!!
I do not recommend this professor.
She is very clear on what she expects from you. Attendance is important for this class, but she allows one absence that you can make up. The grading rubric was clear and she allows you to resubmit the paper again with revisions to improve your grade. She also allows you to submit up to a week late if you cannot make the deadline.
I would not recommend to anyone. She grades assignments vey harsh. The last essay she had us write the median grade was a 37%. Stay away! She doesn't care about your success or grades. This is a first year writing class where you have not been taught anything and expects you to write like you have a masters in writing and communications.DONT DO IT!
Terrible. You can never do anything good enough; I was so excited to kick start this English class. All she did was ruin my confidence when it came to writing. Not one actual lesson.
Very bias grader, Will fail you if the topic you write on is a topic she doesn't like. Especially if it's about the lack of educational resources. Does not like to teach or help. Will straight up ignore you and give you little to no feedback about the grade. Will deduct major points for little errors that aren't even on the rubric. Will argue too.
Dominique is a tough but fair grader. Her class has a lot of writing assignments, but using unstuckstudy ai and the provided feedback really helps. Overall, a challenging but rewarding English course.
Horrible teacher, and her grading is horrendous she will grade so hard even on a discussion. She always wants to find something wrong and deducts so many points for no reason. She even gave homework for spring break while she was on vacation and wouldn't answer her emails or take her time to grade assignments.
Dieffenbach is a tough grader. I do not recommend this professor if you want an easy A. You must be present for every class, write every essay, and take every quiz/test. Even if you do all those things to your fullest, you are not guaranteed a good grade because of how she weights each item. As she says, you get the grade you deserve.
Honestly, it's time for her to give up teaching. Professionalism should always be maintained. She uses AI to check if we used it on essays, yet she uses it herself. How can she tell us not to use AI while doing it? To me that is just backwards. I passed because English is easy, but if it's not your strongest subject, stay away! I warned you lol.
Professor Dieffenbach is a tough grader but is also understanding when situations happen. When asked for help or more clarification she always responds and helps. Class was easy but grading was hard, I am terrible with sentence structure. Make sure to take notes and that you understand for the quizzes.
