Very helpful, very nice and very understanding. She's a great english teacher. But you have to like reading alot about hispanic cultures(very easy readings)and she gives about 5 essays for the semester. I loved her class!
For me, the class seemed to overwhelming. There was too much too do online. Reading long posts,and having to respond to them was tedious. The books were interesting, I must say. And the assignments, were alot. It did not seem structured online. Gives good feedback. Warned me of my status to not get an F, but instead a "W" (personal reasons).
Very nice teacher. Quizes are online and straight out of the book. She goes over the final exam with the class....don't miss that day!
This professor is really great, I took her online this summer and let me tell you she may give "work" (3 books to read) but they are easy fun to read novels. Her quizzes are cake and there is no midterm or final. She is super cool, understanding if you have any problems. I would HIGHLY recommend her.
I'm very disappointed about her virtual class (lit2120) because she has shown so little interest in her students that it's actually scary... no feedback at all, we don't know what we are doing right or wrong, and the grades haven't been updated in almost 2 months, so nobody knows if we're passing the class or not. Frustrating. It's a group of stude
Excellent. Learned so much. Smart.
I took her for an online class. She is not very clear about what she wants in assignments. Also there is virtually no feedback so you are left guessing what you did to deserve a bad grade. It just seems like she "teaches" this class as an afterthought to make more money,which is fine, except she holds the student accountable for her lack of effort
I took this class in virtual college and it wasnt that bad. If you read the books and follow directions you'll do good. I got a C in the class only because I didnt turn in the last assignment. She's not a bad teacher, just follow directions.
she is for me a great teacher commom you guys we are in college what can you expect she is nice and friendly i loved her class. she does give a lot of work but it's not that hard
A lot of reading, but great class discussions, onl;y 2 essays and she doesnt give u a grade until u make an A in the essay n gives it back so u can revise it. she is very open minded.
She is a really good teacher. You have to read and do service learning. Furthermore service learning is really interesting.
She very demanding but a good teacher. She knows what she is teaching and opens your mind to help other with the service learning hours. I took her and i recomend her to those who really want to learn. She helps you if you ask.
Well, honestly, this is not an easy class either it is so hard. You just need to study and read a lot. Understand that every english professor will be demanding because they want you to speak and write perfect english. She is really nice and helps you if you ask for it. Don't be scare about taking this class. Be positive and be yourself. U can do i
Well were should i start?? i took her class this pass spring.The class was a joke. Never again I'll take any classes with this so called professor.Didn't know what to do in class,always lost in class,making the class do dumb thing that has nothing to do with the class @ all,she also takes trips out of state,during the weekdays while we have class.
Prof. Sendin is devoted to teaching. Unfortunately, several students had difficulty understanding her techniques. I had a great experience in this class, and explored many aspects of writing. Some of the topics were emotionally draining, but the class was very interesting. Prof. Sendin is a nature lover and one who cares about the community.
She is a great teacher, for those people that don't like to do anything than don' t even bother to take this class. but you will obtain great results from it.
If you are a self-starter and enjoys reading, follows instrutions really well, you will do well in her virtual class. She could have been more attentive. This class is not for everyone. Overall, it's not bad.
Do yourself a favor and do not take LIT2480 with this prof. ITS HORRIBLE!!!! I don't know what she was doing all semester but it wasnt teaching!
Upon reading the comments I must agree and disagree. She is a great person and helps the community and is very involved but she definitely needs to be more dedicated to her class/students. You must respect her and do your lab and pass final. If you do you will be fine. Slackin in class NOT tolerated!...
Avoid yourself an arguement and don't take her class...she stays with an attitude shows little respect toward her students class is ok not to hard but she dosent look like she like what she does
You want to pass? Do what she tells you and dont talk back to her, she will point you out and make your semester impossible. other than that she will love you and help you as much as she needs to. I enjoyed her class very much its very very easy and make sure you finish lab and pass final. And if you can to community service dont take her.
she is cool overall has things that if she dont like it she will tell u str8t out but real good teach u learn and also she helps u out...PLATO IS A MUST......
This lady does not teach a thing, and she makes you do a useless scavenger hunt for 5 extra points on a test. Do yourself a favor, don't waste your time and money taking her.
OMG! what a waste of time. this lady only talks about Nicaragua. makes us do all kinds of volunteer and service learning stuff for her to go to Nicaragua. YOu will learn nothing else but that. Does'nt even give you tests on the book material. Total waste of time. SHe is mean and ill mannered. Doesn't even smile.
Is not service learning for "her" to go to Nicaragua, is for us to learn how to help people and not just think about "ourselves".Sometimes we do not see what others need because many people just get the "financial aid" to buy handbags and little cars. I do not care if she does not smile because I do not longer go to kindergarten to have my teachers spoiling me. Good professor.
She is a great professor. I highly recommend her. She helps you pass the class and gives you chances. Her exams are very easy and she doesn't assign to much homework. I really do think she is an amazing teacher.
she is a really good professor , very easy class .
she likes class participation, dom't hold back shes's very helpful once you ask for it.
very helpful, nice & easily understand this class if you ask quetions. she will answer any questions. this class was pretty easy. but she is a great teacher, yo will at least come out of this class knowing something.
she is very willing to help and undertanding, she loves class participation and for her students to be enthusiastic, she highly encourages service learning attendance is mandatory because she is spontaneous
An A+ teacher.
As an online course, she provided all the information but periodically opened the modules throughout the course, instead of opening all modules available to complete at your leisure. She will accept late assignments but at times is difficult to get in contact with. Several novels are required, if you like to read this is definitely a class for you.
She's an awesome teacher iv taken 2 classes with her already. I'm always recommending her too students who need to take writing or reading classes. She actually cares about her students takes her time to give class. We as students aren't perfect nor are our professors ! So far she has been one of the nicest iv had ! Take her you wont regret it !!
What can I say? I really loved this class. Professor Sendin was very caring and nice in general. Writing assignments were relatively easy, and homework was a piece of cake. Now that doesn't mean you can slack off! She does check your work and will criticize your work if need be. You will have to do service learning, but that's usually not a problem
Awesome! She is really good in teaching and always walk in with a smile
Extremely picky and harsh grader. Homework? You'll be drowning in her multitude of assignments per week! Doesn't communicate well with the class. Assigns POINTLESS activities! Don't do it. You'll regret it, I promise.
She is good a good teacher but definitely unorginazed which makes everything difficult
This professor is absolutely great! I'm noticing that people are saying there is no clear criteria but the truth is that it is REALLY CLEAR. All you need to do is read your syllabus. Come on, we are in college. Own up to it. Anyways, she is phenomenal and her clssses are extremely interesting. Amazing class for aspring writers. Take her!!!
Emily is the best professor I've had in Miami Dade College. She is inspiring and her passion for life, justice and the environment is infectious. I've become a better student, woman and human being because of her. Her classes are hard because she pushes you to always go further. That's why we are in college! Also she really cares about us!
She is the worst professor you could ever have!!! She doesn't explain good, after she gives you a bad grade, that's when she gives you an explanation of how she wants everything, also she is very rude, she doesn't like to be confronted by a student. If she doesn't like you at first be ready to have a bad grade or just drop the class
Emily's an amazing professor and you will definitely enjoy her class. You will learn soooo much from her. Do it, you won't regret it!
Unorganized, rude towards students, attitude, very picky with essays. Drop this class immediately. If she actually made he work simple and explained it herself instead of linking you to a website this might have worked.
I love Emily. She is the best professor I have ever had. It was an honor to meet her. I took ENC1102 with her, and I would take any class with her again. She gives great feedback. She helps you, but she also makes you work for your grade. She is an excellent professor and an exceptional human being. I recommend you to take her class.
I really enjoyed having class with Professor Sendin. At the beginning I struggled a little bit because I don't like writing by a format and following rules, I am better doing things on my own terms under my own guidelines but overall she was very nice and respectful with me, she taught me a lot of useful information and she grade me fairly.
Focuses too much on format instead on content for essays.
Professor Sendin gives many opportunities. I was able to revise my essays 3 times until I got the grade I wanted. She is helpful and understanding. Yes, she is tough, but I learned so much from her--not just about writing but also about the environment and serving others. If you are willing to work hard, you won't regret taking her class.
She is one of the best English professors I have had since I am a student. I thought I knew how to write until I took her class. The class is really entertaining, and you learn a punch if stuff you do not even know that exits.
Taking reading with this professor started off my time at MDC in the right way. I took both readings with her and then ENC 1102 and I am grateful for all that she taught me that helped me in my other classes. I had to work hard but I also learned a ton. I only wish she taught more courses I need to take.
I didn't know I could be a writer until I took creative writing with Emily. She encouraged me and inspired me to pursue it as a career when I had many doubts. I loved the workshop setting and the community we created in the classroom. Truly different and worthwhile. If you do all your work, you get an A. Take her. You won't regret it!
I've taken both of my creative writing with this Professor, and it was possibly the best decision for my career. Her class balanced my creativity with a healthy amount of discipline. The assignments were progressive and critical. She goes beyond standard education, and if it weren't for her, I wouldn't have been accepted into Emerson College.
Great professor! Motivating, smart, and checks emails! Inspirational and is honest when giving feedback. Wish I could have taken her other courses. Makes class interesting and tries to mix it up. Really helped my transfer process. Wouldn't have gotten into Georgetown without her!
This was one of the best Creative Writing classes I've ever taken in MDC. I received amazing feedback from her every time I went to class and she always went above and beyond in helping her students. Even though she may come off as being too honest, I always appreciated it because it pushed me to do better. I would definitely take this class again.
I took creative writing with this professor and I don't regret it. I learned to be a better writer and to receive and give criticism. If I could do it again, I would.
This course was transformational for me. Prof. Sendin challenged me to learn and share my knowledge with others. The class was not easy, but she did a great job explaining her expectations and the content. At the beginning of the course, Prof. Sendin allowed the students to pick some of the books that we would be reading/discussing in class.
Hands down one of the best classes I ever took at MDC. Professor Sendin loves teaching this class and it shows. It worked as a workshop where everyone's pieces were read and discussed in a respectful and nurturing manner. If you've ever felt like giving creative writing a chance, this is definitely a great opportunity.
While Prof. Sendin seems to be tough all you have to do is show effort and that you care and she will help you succeed in her course. She is available in her office and answers emails and reminds immediately. I never felt so much support from a professor and her class is not boring at all. I learned a lot from her and I am a better writer now.
LIT 2480 online was a good course to take with Prof. Sendin. She was always available via email when we had any questions. I never felt like it was too much work and she gives goof feedback. However, be aware that there is a group project. I got to participate in the Write for Rights campaign in this class and this was my favorite assignment.
I really liked the way this course was organized. You have to read as it is a literature class, but I enjoyed the choices we read and the writing assignments were relevant and not too simple. Professor Sendin was always available whenever I had any questions, which was often. I would take this course again with this professor.
Great class! I am not an English person, but I loved this class. I learned about real life issues and became a better writer. Assignments were fairly graded and not too many. Best part is the many times Prof. Sendin gives you opportunities to improve your work. I don't regret taking this class and would taking any other this professor offers.
Prof. Sendin definitely cared about me and my progress in her class. I was happy this was one of the first classes I took in college. She can seem tough at first but she is really there for us. Most of the skills I learned in reading I applied in other courses. Take this professor. You won't regret it. She is a mentor for life.
This is the best leadership professor I have had at MDC. Emily held my hand through the entire transfer application process. I am going to a top rated university thanks to her guidance and support. Letters of recommendation, help with personal statements, she is there for you 24/7. You cannot top that dedication. You cannot top that dedication.
I had this professor for ENC 1102 when I was going through one of the most difficult times in my life. She helped me ou immensely and let me know that I was not alone. I only passed the class because of all her extra help and extra time she gave me considering my circumstances. She really cares and it shows.
I had lots of fun in Emily's class. We got lots of constructive criticism. We also got to work on the campus magazine if we wanted to for extra credit or service-learning credit. I would definitely take this professor again. Worthwhile!
If you don't pass her class it's because you don't really care or you stop showing up. Yeah, you have to turn in your assignments, and you need to revise your work, but she gives many opportunities to improve and the class was interesting. Don't hesitate to take this professor if you are willing to do the work.
This is hands down the best English professor I have had in College. I learned so much and she was caring.
If you are going to take this class take it with her. The workshop setting offers the most learning I have gotten in an MDC class. Skip the boring lectures and become a better writer with someone who encourages you to be the best version of yourself while at the same time giving constructive and honest feedback.
Not your regular professor or your regular class. One of a kind. If you like creative and out of the box teaching and you are not afraid of doing some work, take care. You won't regret it.
I wish I had found this professor earlier at MDC. I can't thank her enough for all she did making sure I passed her class. She did not stop believing in me even when I didn't believe in myself. Passed the class with an A.
She's lovely, one of the best teachers I've had in College. Very caring and willing to help you out. HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER.
Perhaps one of the best professors I've had at MDC. She is caring and her classes are not boring at all. It will not be an easy A though.
I am glad I took creative writing with this professor before transferring from MDC. She prepared me for what was to come and her open and honest feedback made me a better writer as well take and give constructive and useful critiques.
I took this class with Professor Sendin, and I am glad. It was pretty basic. You complete your assignments, show up, and do PLTL and you pass. She cares and takes the time to explain.
This professor I've had online. The class was very interesting-- I love the required readings and the Hulu series we needed to watch. She was always present, gave good feedback, and was kind.
I don't do this often but this class was worth it. Please take LIT 2480 online with her you wont regret it. There will be work to complete, and a group project, which is super interesting. I am not going to say it was all easy but she was always there to support, allowed us to turn in work late, and was always on top of everything. Simply the best.
I loved this class. it was interesting and well paced. Professor Sendin was available through Remind, gave clear expectations, and gave us plenty of second chances. If you are going to take LIT 2480 take it with her.
The best prof I have ever had and such a fun class! We watched Handmaid's Tale, Lost, and Game of Thrones. Had 2 short essay discussion boards, 1 literary essay, service learning reflection essay, 1 quiz, and 2 group projects. Prof. Sendin has such an infectious bubbly personality and I looked forward to her class every week! Love love loveee her!
I drove across Miami just to come to this Professor's class. If you are looking for inspiration, if even a small part of you wants to write, don't hesitate. Take the class. She is life-changing. She is inspirational. I have never felt so much love and support from one teacher. I wish I could give her a 10/10. She is absolutely amazing!
This is probably the best college class you will ever take. The tools she uses to educate are amazing and they really open the class up for amazing discussions, I took the class on a Monday night and almost 30-45 minutes away from my home, however I was still entertained and ready for class. If you want a class thats not boring TAKE THIS CLASS!!
Professor Sendin is the best professor I have had at MDC. Even though I had not taken a class with her before, she showed she really cared about my progress and also wanted her students to succeed. The material in this class was not overbearingly hard and she made it easy for her students to understand and learn better. Would take her class again!
I have a pleasure to have a class with a wonderful teacher and the way she teach and all the effort she put in each one of us to learn and love to read. Great experience with her to never give up. Best teacher ever!
Great professor, Sendin makes the class very interesting. The stuff we covered in class had me wanting to learn more. Youll get an A as long as you do your homework/projects and participate in class. Shes very funny and kind to all her students. Id definitely take her again for another class. Ps. Make sure to show up to class.
She was amazing. I enjoyed so much her class. I would definitely take her again and recommend it for any student (it doesn't matter if you are a science major).
She was one of the best professor I had in mdc
I totally loved her class. I learned so much and never felt like I was actually taking a course. She grades fairly and her curriculum is like no other. Most fun class Ive taken at MDC.
this class was at night on a Monday but the time flew. there were many innovative techiques that made the class fun. We watched Lost, The Handmaids Tale and Game of Thrones and our discussions wer engaging and very different from anything i have experienced in college. i wish there were another class i could take with her. totally loved her!
loved taking this class! professor sendin was amazing and very smart she knows what she teaches, you will definitely leave this class with a lot of knowledge. take her!!!!
Best professor at mdc!!
Sendin is the best! She really cares for her students and is always there for them. She goes above and beyond her job for all of her students. She is the sweetest and most caring professor I have ever had!
Hands down, this was one of the best professors I've had. The workload was a bit heavy but it was easy. There was a couple of discussions and a group project. Highly recommend this professor.
This class was EXTREMELY FUN, most of the time it didn't even feel like I was going to school. Professor Sendin is awsome and I would def. take a class with her again. She let my creativity unleash and it was FUN presenting for the whole class. LOVE IT!
What a treat it is to have Prof. Sendin at IAC. Her class was wonderfully taught, and never felt like work. We used differentiated instruction and even taught a few classes ourselves. A fun and engaging way to make friends on campus while learning. Wonderful teacher who will do anything for her students and those in need. A prize teacher on campus!
Awesome Teacher, gives great feedback. You'll become a better writer. Group project is easy, you just have to do an informational short movie. Write short discussion essays well and you'll pass with an A. Make sure to take notes, so you can pass quizzes with flying colors also. The only thing is that she may take a while to respond to emails.
She is a truly magical person! I took this class with the Harry Potter component and it was a total hit. She values geniuity and creativity so here you would have a safe space of expressing yourself while exploring enjoyable literature. Accio A!
Amazing professor, she goes above and beyond for her students and is always willing to help them out. Her lectures are amazing, her class were fun, engaging and interactive. She clearly loves to teach and is probably the best professor i will ever have!
Best professor ever!
Emily encourages you to learn and the classes are very dynamic and fun. I never missed one of her classes.
I took Prof. Sendin for the Literature class. She cares for the students and makes sure they grow as writers. Definitely, the most approachable professor I've had. I would take her again as I enjoyed her class very much!
I love this professor. She is passionate and inspirational. Her lectures are interesting and interactive. She gives lots of feedback and tips to help us become better writers.
During IDH2004, she focuses on revising personal statements and writing supplements which is very helpful. During this time of the year, we're all going crazy with applications and she makes this process less stressful. She checks essays until past midnight and writes excelent letters of recommendation. I am really thankful to this professor.
There's no textbook required for the class. We read short articles she posts online and reflect on them. Lastly, we watch and analyze the first season of The Handmaid's Tale. There's a randomly assigned group project but you can choose your role in it.
THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER. WILL NOT REGRET. ANGEL SENT ON EARTH. THE BEYONCE OF PROFESSORS. THE GOAT. You'll love her.
The LIT2000 STUDY ABROAD course was AMAZING. In class/trip, we analyzed the books/series, and brought analogies of these to events in our history. The trip, I'd describe it as instructive, inspiring and fun; BUT IT WAS WAY MORE THAN THAT! We saw places that inspired the books, where scenes were filmed, and much more. Memories that I'll never forget
Professor Sendin is the best. You won't regret to take her. Besides an easy A.
The classes are interactive and hands on which makes them enjoyable. The professor loves what she teaches, her enthusiasm pours out and I believe it made the study abroad trip feel like a vacation. She allows student input on the itinerary and once abroad is still flexible with the itinerary so that the study abroad trip can be the best possible.
I definitely LOOVEEEEE HERR!!!! one of the best professor i've ever had. She really cares about her students. Lovely person.
I loved this class. I made the best decision choosing Prof. Sendin. We constantly got and gave feedback and thats what makes us better writers. If I were to change anything, I would make the course longer.
Best professor ever! The course was dynamic and easy.
She actually cares for her students, gives feedback and makes class time fun.
This professor is the best, the term had finished and she reached out to mean to see if i wanted to fix my grade to make it better. I was having a very hard time this term and she helped me a lot. BEST PROFESSOR EVER!!!!! TAKE HER.
Theres many writing assignments and plenty of reading to do. Theres also a group assignment worth a bug percentage, which was kind of difficult since its online. Option of service learning assignment or final. She takes a while to reply to emails and takes long to grade assignments.
This professor thinks that an speech class is an English composition class. We had to present 5 speeches in total, and for 4 of them had to be presented with an outline of 5 pages or so. Mistakes in grammar or spelling deducted points. She also assigned us a lot of reading form a communication book, and quiz us every week. Really tough grader.
For the most part I enjoyed her class. Very engaging and we had AMAZING conversations. But, she tries to force her opinions down her student's throats and kind of belittles them when it doesn't work. She also takes forever to grade assignments and isn't clear on instructions. And we watched 2 TV shows find I find to be a cop out.
The Literature class with professor Sendin is one of the best courses Ive ever taken. The books and shows she chooses for this course are amazing, from Handmaids Tale to Game of Thrones. Also theres not a lot of homework except for reading and group projects that she gives you plenty of time for. I really recommend this class to everyone!!!
Sendin is THE BEST. Her class was very fun bc she uses many teaching platforms. She assigned shows that complimented the subject of the class. So not everything is reading. She likes to instigate different views, and made me comfortable with my own. Shell give you chances to make up assignments. Great support and availability. You wont regret it.
Professor Sendin is amazing! I had her for LIT2480 and it was a blast. We did fun group projects based on reading or watching a literary piece. Shes going to help you in and outside of class. Her class is not a boring lecture class is fun and sure engaging. Would take her again and again!
Professor Sendin cares about her students and wants them to thrive (in and outside of the class). The class consists of reading books, watching shows (related to the class/readings), and engaging group projects. You will learn about the different literary theories in a fun creative way. Recommend everyone to take her class, you won't regret it!
I took LIT2480 and IDH with prof. Sendin. I strongly recommend you to take her. She is a wonderful human being and a unique professor. She cares about her students (academically and personally.) You can always talk to her during class time or office hours. A lot of group discussions and uncommon fun activities. Books are interesting and enjoyable
I had Sendin as my Lit2480 profesor. She is the most caring professor I have ever had. She helps you in any assignment you may have a trouble and always understands your situation. Her mission is to shape the students writing and reading skills by giving great feedbacks and strategies that will level up your writing. She is the BEST!
Best professor ever! Makes the class interesting and inspirational. Gives great feedback when you need to write your papers. She is always there to answer questions. Overall, it's an easy class; just do all the work as best as possible and pay attention to her class. The assignments are not hard.
Prof. Sendin is amazing. She prioritizes students, making sure that their learning experience is unique and unforgettable. She will allow you to choose areas of comfort for writing while simultaneously challenge you to expand on those that might be unfamiliar. She teaches in an unconventional way, leaving room for creativity and inspiration.
I've taken professor Sendin for several classes and creative writing was my fav one for sure. She's an excellent professor. I had to write a short story, a poem, and a screenplay which I enjoyed a lot. We met once a month to review our work and get feedback. No tests, no annoying HW, just working on the 3 assignments. She's very approachable.
Professor Sending is definitely one of the best professors I have had. Her classes are very engaging and inspirational since she loves to know all her students and help them in whatever she can. She gives EXCELENT feedback on assignments and essays and she really helps you to grow as a student and professional. She is a wonderful human being.
Great professor!! Would definitely take him again.
seems to love watching shows rather than actually reading books which i guess is fine but she is extremely unorganized. She skipped the first two weeks of class with no explanation which obviously set the whole class back, she starts class thirty minutes later than when it is listed to start AND she decided to only do class once every other week?!
She's a queen, very nice professor and woke. Her syllabus can get confusing so just reach out to her. She's readily accessible after class and makes herself available. Be ready to watch shows and read a bit, at least her choices are fun and relevant. Easy A if you participate and are willing to learn
Really fun she was and liberal I loved having her around sure I do miss her bc I dnt go to school anymore but the memories lives on forever
Best professor ever!!!! Amazing class, I loved the final assignment, she is accessible whenever you need to reach her. If looking for applying to anything, she will help you always. It is very unusual to see a professor like her, who cares about the future of the student, who suffers if the student is not on track. I would love to keep in touch...
She is a fantastic professor! Very understanding and lenient. Actually cares about her students. I took ENC1102, LIT2480, and IDH2004 with her. I got an A in every class, super easy.
Professor Sendin is a wonderful and respectful person who support her student to get their aspiration without discrepancy. She is a great professor, gives good and constructive feedback, fun, and creative. I can describe her classes with two words enjoyable and informative.
This was my first creative writing class ever, and I enjoyed it so much. It was the highlight of my weeks. Professor Sendin is excellent and very accessible out of class. She gives good feedback and great assignments. She gives you a good window of time to turn in assignments. She is very understanding and grants a lot of creative freedom.
She is the best professor I ever had. She cares about her students and is accessible outside the class. She gives great feedback and advice. The course content was extremely enjoyable. We even got to create our own escape rooms using the course's literary works. I would totally take this class again!
Professor Sendin is one of a kind. She cares about her students and you will actually learn in her class. I really enjoyed LIT 2480. You will read and analyze books and some TV shows, which makes it fun and interesting. In every lecture youll have the chance to share your opinions in engaging discussions.
Sendin was always there for you and she is very understanding.
Professor Sendin is the best professor at MDC without a doubt!! She is very kind and caring. LIT2480 is a challenging class, but she makes it fun and interactive. You will learn a lot and the lectures are amazing. Do the work and you will get an A.
Professor Sendin is very nice and caring with her students. LIT 2480 was very interesting and interactive, our discussion centered on topics of the time and culture. The class was fun, and if you did your work you would be fine. Professor Sendin has very strong opinions, like everyone else. If you want to learn about culture take professor Sendin!
The class was very fun, if you enjoy reading and writing it is a must! The professor is very understanding; she loves teaching and she does it very well. Very recommended.
This has beenthe worst class I've taken at MDC, it's a complete mess. Course contents are extremely unorganized and confusing. Professor did not grade a single assignment for the most part of the course and takes forever to reply mails. Group project in an online class where every student has different schedules. Avoid this class like the plague.
Dont take her
Horrible
Don't take this professor. Everything graded last day, no feedback during the course. Class is a complete mess.
Does not grade anything until the last minute ��
DONT TAKE HER!!!
This professor did not grade not one assignment until the last day of class. Gave us an optional final, and yet we didnt have the instructions for it until the day before class ended. No responses to messages and she never communicated. Dont take this class, its a complete mess!!
Professor complained via email about her work load when students asked about grades. She didn't grade anyone's first drafts for the final assignment, leaving all students at a loss. Her critiques were "Wonderful", "Change your title", or involved directly editing students' work without giving any reason as to why. Doesn't know her material at all.
This Professor was just a mess this semester. Didn't give clear instructions in most assignments, gave us an "optional" Final Exam if you have an A but she didn't grade until THE LAST DAY. She also gave 3 essays and a speech for us to do all in a week while everyone has jobs and other classes to take care of. I recommend someone else. Too stressful
Professor Sendin is the best ! She is caring and motivates you to do your best!
Professor Sendin was such an amazing and caring person. She was very accessible outside of class time. Even though I wasnt good at my writing skills, she took time to work with me to improve it. When I took her class it was online because of COVID-19; however, she made it fun and dynamic. Show up to class!!!
Excellent teacher because she focuses on teaching students with amiability.
People love to complain when they are not willing to put in the work. Classes require interest and effort. Didn't understand an assignment or concept? Reach out to the professor, she's very accessible and loves to help students. She had an extremely difficult summer term, yet she kept going until the very end of the semester. She's great, take her!
Professor Sendin is amazing! She's the most caring professor that I ever encountered during my time at MDC. She is always willing to help and gives creative assignments that make her class fun. Completely recommended!
She is the best professor that I ever had. She is so dedicated to her profession and she is the type of person who will fight for her students and stick to you to help you through hard times. If you have any problem, you can reach her after class and she works with the student. A very passionate person and class overall is easy to pass with A.
Professor Emily Sendin has completely inspired me to speak my truth and learn about the world of Literature. Her teaching methods are magnificent and definitely a great class to take. She makes the class innovative and enjoyable. Likewise, she is THE BEST PROFESSOR you will ever meet.
Professor Sendin implements innovative ways to learn in the class. I developed a podcast research project regarding environmental contamination. It has been one of my greatest experiences working alongside her. Definitely take her!
She has inspired me to advocate for women and immigrants, like myself. She is available anytime and truly cares about her students. Will definitely take her again! She is the best.
She is one of the most inspiring women I have ever met. I have nothing but respect and admiration for her. She is truly passionate about her work and her class is one of the best courses I have taken.
You would not regret taking her class. All of the assignments were innovative and interesting. I learned greatly from her and her class. I would 100% recommend her. Truly cares.
Avoid this teacher! She assigns meaningless homework with no instructions, and then never grades it! Her critiques are horrible and she doesn't put any effort into helping students improve their writing skills. Group projects take up the majority of your gradebook. Her class is easy as long as you suck-up to her and are good with group projects.
If you want an A in English take her. No exams, a few essays, she lets you resubmit work if anything to get a better grade. Amazing
This professor is absolutely amazing. She always tries to incorporate relevant topics to class and her assignment are straightforward if you're paying attention. It's not a free A but it's one you'll enjoy.
The reviews are a lie. I don't know why they're so high. She is all over the place, doesn't respond to anyone's emails, doesn't provide clear instructions on due dates/assignments. Her due dates are tentative. She doesn't make modules visible so you end up rushing to complete things after emailing 100 times asking to make them visible. AVOID HER
Prof. Sendin cares about her students and takes time to help, even with late assignments!! Though her class requires effort, it's worth it because she pushes you to become a better writer and discover your passions. She gives excellent feedback and genuinely wants the best for her students. Her passion radiates and you can tell by her lectures.
Professor Sendin's class is engaging and thought-provoking. Though not an easy A, the assignments are creative and you'll learn a lot. Unstuckstudy was a great study aid alongside the class material. Highly recommended for literature enthusiasts.
There was 1 group project, 1 individual podcast, and 2 essays. She is caring and understanding. She gives feedback to make your work better. I would recommend her.
This is the best teacher you could ever take if you are an English major- just don't slack. She lets you know of award opportunities, advices you beyond the classroom, lets you meet with established authors, and is extremely caring. If you have any concerns she will listen. Take her if you want to succeed; I will definitely be taking her again!
no organization what so ever. behind on grading doesnt grade until last week of the semester and in the end she made us do peer reviews so she wouldnt have to grade the assignments herself. will force you to sign up into podcast competitions even if you dont want to (its a grade) and to participate outside of class time for this competition.
This is the only time i will do one of these,no idea why her ratings are so high, she doesn't know what happening half the time, doesn't care about you, takes forever to grade, absolutely sucks at teaching, makes constant mistakes on grading and makes u fend for yourself and not help, she always shows up late. Only take her if last option the worst
Professor Sendin cares and walks you through all the steps, she is caring and is always ensuring you are walking down the right path!
This is the teacher you should take when beginning your transfer journey. I have never had a teacher care so much about your future and ensuring you end up in the right institution. Please do yourself a favour and sign up with her!
Although it did not feel much like an English class, she did give good feedback for submitted essays. Other than that, professor Sendin is very caring and her main goal is for you to step outside your comfort zone and challenge yourself. She made us do things like podcasts and compete in research competitions which helped me develop my skills.
I LOVE PROFESSOR SENDIN!! She is and will always be one of the best professors I have ever met. I went into this course not knowing much about the topic, but I left with SO much. She really cares about what she teaches and her students, she will do everything to help you understand the material its amazing.
The professor was evidently knowledgeable and cared about what she taught, but unfortunately, I did not have a good experience with the professor. She was extremely disorganized, on occasion, rude to the class, and passive-aggressive when answering any questions. The class itself wasn't hard; it was just all over the place. Takes long to grade.
Professor Sendin's class was probably one of the best I've ever had at MDC. Her CRW class made me grow as a writer and also evolve my creativity. It consisted of three projects, all of them really fun to do. Highly recommend her.
I won't lie and say she's an awful professor, but there are definitely better professors you can take this class with. Most of the time she was really disorganized and would randomly say an assignment was due with no warning, and a lot of the times the criteria or instructions weren't clear. Not awful, but definitely caused unnecessary stress.
In my opinion she's the most helpful teacher to have when preparing for transfer as an honors student. Extremely dedicated and will help you with everything you need, one of the best professors I've had at MDC!
Really easy class. Basically the entire semester was just group projects and a few induvidual ones. All the assignemnts are super easy and she accepts late work. As long as you have a good group for your projects, the class should be a very easy A. As long as you come to class and you are respectful, the class is very easy.
She's a fun professor to have as she has escape rooms that are Game of Thrones or Hunger Games themed. Professor Sendin is really nice as she wants you to succeed in her LIT2480 class even if it involves group assignments.
I have had the priviledge of taking 4 (and soon 6) classes with Prof. Sendin. She is a wonderful person and, somehow, an even better professor. The content of her class is useful, interesting and intentional. She has inspired me to write and read more than I ever have, and her classes have reshaped my college experience. If you can, take her!!!
If you want to become a better writer, human being, and expand your horizons you NEED to take her. She has changed my life. I would not be living as my most authentic self if it wasn't for her. Any professor can teach you a subject, but it is difficult to find one that makes you love it and encourage you to change the world with that love.
Professor Sendin is a supportive instructor, whose dedicated to her students' success, ensuring they pass. This course includes group work, but you can choose your partners. She also allowed us to choose what books/ TV shows we could read/watch to discuss in class. Just make sure you stay on top of your work, since the work load can get heavy.
