She makes you work hard, but you learn a lot.

Erika was great. if you work hard she'll reward your work. to the person that said her class was equal to one in high school i have to say i imagine you didn't take enough colleges courses to know what one is like and i'd also bet you didn't get too far past mvcc if you did at all. thanks erika for helping me get into u of i. i graduated in dec 0

She graded things too hard. I did a research paper for her and I had a past English teacher look it over and I made all the necessary corrections and I still got B on it. Eh, she was okay...

i loved her.. great assignments.. very easy

Awesome. Well organized, very clear and great assignments.

She is tough but she's good. I liked her a lot and look forward to taking her again for the Fall '06 semester.

Class was boring. Do a lot of high school style group activities, but then again, what else can you do for three hours in a writing class. If you have decent writing ability, you can get As on the papers. Grade rests on four papers. Otherwise, not too bad of a class.

very friendly

You can tell this prof wants to give you a course that includes more than just listening to lecture and writing a bunch of papers. She comes up with innovative projects that really make you think.

Deiters had some cool assignments, but she was tough. I enjoyed class (lots of small groups) and the stories were good.

I took her COM 101 online. She answered emails within a day and she returned papers within a week. I was nervous about the class but she always helped me with ideas. We used one of the books a lot, but the handbook didn't really come into play.

I took her online poetry class too. I thought she was really helpful. She offered feedback whenever I asked. When I emailed her, she replied right away. Sure, the workshops weren't that great, but Deiters was great.

The stories and novels we read were okay and I was surprised we read Choke for class. The discussion boards were okay. The projects were different. She's a good online teacher. Very involved.

Dieters is hard. You have to go to class and you have to write and research. First, the homework was easy then the essays got harder but every thing made sense.

Erika is pretty good. She gives easy assignments but is a hard grader. She gives constructive criticism and cares about her students. Overall Com-101 in Professor Deiter's class was pretty successful.

Erica wants you to "Reach for the Stars" she sets the bar high, not because she's mean but because she cares about you and wants you to think on a higher level. Erica has made a huge difference in my life and I highly recommend her. One of the best Professors at Moraine!

This class is meant to build a foundation for your college writing. She is tough, but grammar etc are things we are supposed to know. She simply asks you to perfect your writing. Ms.Deiters is a great teacher, and very helpful. She always encouraged her students to ask if they need help. I took alot away from this class and I'm glad i chose her.

She was the nicest teacher. She really cares and wants you to do your best. She is very helpful.I enjoyed her class.

I loved her class. I've never liked a writting class as much as this one. The projects are very easy but she doesnt give expamples to fallow off so that can be a little frustrating. Shes a little crazy but as long as u turn in all of your work and meet the requirments you'll have no problem passing. I'd recomend her.

Don't take her if you want an A. She is the toughest grader I have ever had. I'm an english major and no matter what I did I could never get better than a B+ on her papers. She treats her students like they are professional writers. Some say she was useful but I disagree. I don't feel like my writing improved from this class, if anything I lost con

I completely agree with everyone that she is a hard grader. I'd have literally ONE grammatical error and she'd take off like 8 points. really frustrating. but all the in-class assignments and 4 or 5 projects are easy. class flies by and she's very enthusiastic. nice lady overall.

She is obsessed with the meaning of lovely and every project on it is related to lovely. You are only allowed to miss 6 classes, and you dont even need to go to any because everything she goes over in class is the same stuff on blackboard everyday. The projects and papers were ridiculously hard and so much work required i do not recomend her at all

Mrs. Deiters class was so easy. If you would rather do projects than essays I suggest this class with her. Yes, she does emphasize the word "lovely" but it makes the projects an easy "A", if you try.

She is a great teacher. Easy and very easy to understand. There are guidelines that must be reach with each paper/project meet them and you'll always get a good grade. Extremely easy if YOU GO TO CLASS! She grades your paper fairly if your a retard and have poor grammar then expect to fail.

Decent teacher - definitely has her own style of teaching. Only downfall is everything is revolved around one sole author which, at times, gets repetitive and boring. A lot of the material was familiar to me from most of my high school classes, but overall an easy A or high B.

Ms. Deiters sets a solid foundation for those pursuing any Communication or English degree. She is terrific. She sets the bar high but makes it feasible. If you can't hack her class, it's time to move out of your parents' ba****t and see how far your expertise at Nintendo takes you.

This was my 5th class with Erica Deiters. As before, she has provided me with countless learning opportunities. She is organized and clear in lecture, discussion, assignments. She grades work fairly. If you work hard, follow guideliness, and meet deadlines you will earn a good grade and learn tools and techniques useful in other disciplines.

I took her online and I thought she was very helpful with explaining stuff

She is very enthusastic, and makes class fly by. She is a really nice teacher but her class is not easy at all. She givesto many asignments. Its not even a Com-101 Class The whole class revolves around Amy Rosenthal, the author of a book we read. This teacher is obssesed with her.She is also a very strict grader, i dont recamend her

very easy to be in class, she seems to genuinely care. although there are lots of projects, they're easy and fun. i recommend this class if you're creative.

Ms. Deiters is an outstanding teacher. If you really want to learn literature & poetry, she is the best! She's always willing to answer your questions & concerns. I took 2 classes with her & learn a great deal. She is a great teacher for those students that care about learning and want to do fine in their profession. I strongly recommend her.

I took her Intro to Poetry class and barely received an A after working to my best ability. I really did enjoy the class however there are a few things I wish I knew before getting into it. She does not require attendance but if you miss an in class assignment you cannot make it up. She is an opinionated grader and makes it impossible to get an A+

She is amazing and suportive and understanding !

She's a great professor. Yes, there were lots of papers and homework that needed to be done but it wasn't to the point where it was too overwhelming. When writing the essays, I did need time and she gives you enough to complete it. She gives great feedback and allows room for improvement. She even gives extra credit and allows you to miss 6 days!

good teacher, can get boring but will pass class easily as long as u do all assignments

Professor Deiters was one of the best teachers I've ever had. Many complained about her assignments, but that was because they were just lazy. As long as you go to class and listen to her guidelines you should be fine. At times her grading seemed very tough, but it's for your own good and will help you to do better on the next paper.

Mrs. Dieters is a great teacher, it was a little boring and some classes seemed really pointless but overall she's pretty easy as long as you do the work.

The essays are not the usual but that's good in my mind. She explains the directions and gives examples. She not that hard. I liked the book.

She answers emails within a day. I asked a lot of questions she helped a lot. the book was okay and the assignments were not that hard. I thought an online class would of been harder but she made it okay.

Not too many assiagnments.

I was curious to read others' experiences and I was amazed by the negative comments left by others;specifically, by the horrible grammar used by those leaving the negative reviews. Clearly, they did not learn much from this easy course. My advice to others would be to follow diections and do not procrastinate assignments.

She is a hard teacher who has different teaching methods, but if you can get past that you can learn a lot from her.

Mrs. D wants you to be a better writer. She makes you write a lot but she is helpful and gives time during class.

I wish she taught COM 102.

She's nice

One of the best teachers I have ever had in college!!!

She grades hard but her classes are not boring at all and you'll really learn something. She puts in grades pretty fast and really wants you to become a better writer

Her class was great. I loved the book and I never read I was surprised. We rewrote our papers I think my writing is actually better. My grammar wasn't the best, it's still not great, but I'm glad we didn't talk about commas and spelling everyday.

The class was just what I needed to get back into school. Miss Erica gave us a variety of assignments so we weren't just writing essays and I still learned a lot about writing. I want to take her for COM 102 but it doesn't look like she teaches it.

Took her online class in 2017. It was an easy A. I did not like the book that she chose for us to read, Encyclopedia of an Ordinary Life, but it wasn't bad. The assignments are easy, no on campus trips required, good specific feedback on grades. The final writing assignment was a lot of work so give yourself enough time to do it and edit.

Grades tough but if you follow what she expects she is fair. The class challenges your writing ability, but as someone who waited 4 years to attend college, I needed the structure she provided to get back into the swing of writing.

mrs. deiters is one of the sweetest teachers! i took her for my first semester in college and i do not regret it. she will get angry with you if you constantly ditch class and do not turn in assignments but if you truly try you'll pass. i got a B in the course. show up, do your work on time and you'll be just fine!!

Contrary to other reviews I genuinely enjoyed Prof Deiters class and teaching style. At first I thought she was a tough grader, but she isnt. She simply gives good constructive criticism in order for you to improve as a writer. Feedback received should be applied to each new paper, I guarantee your grade will improve!

Her class was my favorite class last semester. The book was interesting and we researched what we wanted to research. I wish she was teaching com102.

She cares a lot for her students and really wants to see progress throughout the semester. She has a bright personality and will do anything to help you. With that being said she was a tough grader. At times it seemed like she cared about punctuation errors more than your essay contents. Just make sure your citation is accurate and you'll do fine.

Always gives good feedback (a whole paragraph or more) and tells you the truth. Be good with grammar. Deiters is a tough grader follow the guidelines and you'll be good.I would recommend this class if you know how essay are written (Thesis, body paragraph, blah). The assignments are easy to hard. For example 100 point, then 150 point, etc.

Prof. Deiters gives super helpful feedback. Although she can be a tough grader at times, she will give you feedback that if you correct, you will be fine. Pay attention to the requirements and due dates. She gives exc opportunities that are super easy to complete. The book we read for class was actually really good. Overall, great teacher.

Professor Deiters can be a tough grader, but her feedback helps you improve as a writer. The textbook is useful, and attending class is essential. For extra study help, try Unstuck study alongside other resources like ChatGPT. Overall, a challenging yet rewarding course.

Her class are very lively. Is extremely helpful with revisions. Reasonable amount of work required.

Professor Deiters is educated in her field, and you can tell that she has a genuine love for the craft. I enjoy her method of instruction and the enthusiasm she brings every morning. She provides activities that help the student break down different formats and encourages them to use a less traditional writing style.
