She's a fun teacher but can be very demanding. She grades pretty hard as well.
ms. dailey is the best teacher ever... lol. she is so helpfull but if she starts talking about chunking then RUN!!! lol
very outspoken!! and nice and easy to get along with
Hard! Take her if you want a challenge. Way too much work.
If you want to learn and are up for a challenge then Dailey is for you. If you have a desire to learn to write; she will work as hard for you, as you do for yourself. She runs a tough but more than fair class that makes learning fun. A real joy to have as a teacher. She is not for kids!
Dailey,where do I began. She is quirky. Loves the gym & chunking! Let's not forget the purple love. Overall, she really is a great professor who really enjoys what she does. (especially when she calls the readings DELICIOUS)
She's a sweetheart.Her students are her life, literally.She is a little zany and unconventional so if you are tight knit, then she is not the teacher for you.If you do all the work required you learn a lot and at the end of the term,you see how much you accomplished with self gratification.She demands a lot but it's worth it.You'll never forget her
Her class is definately interesting. She is a very nice teacher but can be a little tough on the grading. It's pretty hard to get an A in her class. She is very fun to be around though. You definately learn alot in her class. If you are up for a challenge you should take her class.
Where to begin? She is tough and it is hard to get an A. But I worked very hard for her and I got that A! Had her for 101, am now in her 102 class. And it isn't looking like it is going to be any easier this semester. I love her. She inspires and encourages and believes. If you want to work hard, you will love her.
Two semesters in a row with Dailey. Enjoyed the class even more this time around. Still tough, still zany and still as dedicated and interested (and interesting) as ever. Take her class if you really want to learn how to write. If you just want an easy "A" (or "B"), go elsewhere.
Dailey is a cool teacher. she makes everyone laugh and the class is always fun to go to. The work can be difficult, and it's not a class that you can just breeze through without trying, but she's very helpful. also, she's pretty hot.
I had Dailey for 101 and requested her for 102. She is an amazing professor with great energy and enthusiasm, and she is always ready to help in any way she can. There is a lot of work and you need to be up for it, but she makes it better with her awesome personality. she is a tough grader but you will be a much better reader/writer because of it.
Dailey is the best teacher I ever had!! She is funny but has high standards. I learned in her class and she inspired me to continue with my education. She is responsable with her job and her students and doesn't play aroud. She is doing a good job as a teacher because she cares about everybody in her class like her own family. Y.Soto
Today after 20 years of being out of high school i am at holyoke community college. I have one class with a wonderful professor. I was scared before entering the class but when inside and listening to Dailey and finding out the type of person she is it made my worries go away. I am confident that i will make it in her class even if its my only one
Epic class so far haha :D
dailey is probably one of the most easy going teachers so far for me at hcc...funny but yet serious...she pushes her students to succeed.
Dailey, is one of the best professor at Hcc. She is a hard professor, but she will work with you if you have any problems. I love her class and i recomended to people who never believed in themself. She made me realized how important college is and how life without college will not be so good..overall if you have Dailey, do your work and be serious
Dailey sets standards that are refreshing in a world where there are fewer and fewer to be found. the class can be arduous, but it is worth it. and dailey will help you if you ask for it. i enjoyed this class and will take her for 102.
Daily is amazing. I've always gotten along with my English teachers but this one is so full of life she gets you excited even if your too tired. She's a tough cookie but she tells you up front without fluff, what she expects from you. So just do it. Questions? Ask her. I find it easier to follow directions the way she lays them out. Puple love! ;)
Crazy!! In a good Way. I think she is a great teacher so far!! Very motivated..which alot of teachers aren't.
She is a tough teacher but her work is not impossible.
Dailey seems to be a very good teacher and i cant wait to work with her this semester. her class also seems to be fun and is very exciting. she is wacky but hey what can i say, im married to her. haha
I've only had one class with ther so far but I already love it. She seems very willing to help you and wants you to succeed but wont just let you sail trough the class with no hard work. I can't wait for the next class!
So far i like her, she's fun and easy to get along with. She makes you work hard and helps you every step of the way. Awesome class so far!
She's really firm but we need that, shoot, I need that. It helps when you've been slacking the school work.
Tough teacher, but good and fun attitude, plan on learning alot this semester...
Had only one class with her so far, seems to be a great professor but looks like you have to work for your grade.
Only one class with her, but I must say that she will be the one to keep me on my toes! Good feeling about this class
she seems like a good teacher
Seems like a solid class. Very enthusiastic teacher. Lots of energy in her classes.
Not and easy class, but hard work is rewarded.
Had one class so far but it seems great! Hard but very energetic and interesting.
She is mucho loco! She is an awesome teacher. Highly motivated, enthusiastic, and definitely a go-to person.
very good professor
I signed up for her class based on others' experiences with her and all of these high ratings on this site. She'll teach you to write well. She is available to help if you ask. On the above, she meets the criteria for a good professor. What I didn't like was her self-obsession. She talks a lot about herself. That is unprofessional.
This professor is not fluff, if you are a teen fresh out of high school and feel you did not get much from it than this is the professor for you.(Warning) If you are someone who is ?seasoned? and has a lot going on in life and just needs to take a course for the credits this one might not be the course to take. She is work heavy.
If your desire is to learn how to write "one damn good essay" you belong in Jackie Dailey's class. If you want an easy grade look elsewhere. If lecture and lesson are based in the same realm, then adding a personal story enhances the the level of understanding the text. But, of course, one needs maturity to understand this concept.
Prof. Dailey uses her past experiences in life to try turn student's to the correct path in their lives.Relating everything to school work and not relating anything to real life circumstances will not help students commit to their futures. She is not just an awesome teacher, but an awesome friend and listener.
Dailey is an awesome teacher! She genuienly cares about her students.She expects a lot out of her students, but her students get a lot more out of her class.
Did well in her class, but I just didn't like her style. Someone else commented that she talks about herself too much and I agree. Some of the things she shared were not our business. She does break down how to write a good essay though and that is an important skill to have. Would not take her again.
Jaqueline Dailey is the best teacher iv had while attending HCC. she is very intelligent and has a good grasp on the materials of the course. Dailey truly cares about her students and how they are doing in her class. also if you need help on something she is more than happy to help and i guarantee you will have many laughs in her class.
Dailey is exceptionally passionate about her subject matter. She cares that her students will do well in the future. That means her class is far from easy. If easy is what you're looking for, find another teacher. If you want someone interesting, who will give you new perspectives on literature,take this course. Be prepared to write A LOT.
She's fun
DAILEY IS AWSOME!!!!!!!!
dailey is awsome!!!!!!!
She is very crazy, but in a fun and passionate way. LOTS OF WRITING. Shes talks about herslelf, but in connversational way. Makes her realatable, but is firm and hard about learning. LOVE IT!
after my first few classes i am both scared and excited to attend class... she really is passionate and truly cares about each students success in thier future yea she does talk about herself butits to make a more personal connection with us very inspiring and fun a lot of work but you feel good that you did it during discussion in class :)
Motivating, and inspiring! Truly cares about her work and her students, and wants to see them all succeed. Some say she talks about herself too much, but I think that is to relate to her class, and she loves hearing about her students as well! Do not expect an easy A, but hard work is rewarded! We need more teachers like her in the world. No fluff!
Dailey is as intelligent as she is attractive (that's saying something). If you need to work on your essay writing Dailey will get you where you need to be. A tip to get along well with Dailey: bring a laptop.
Dailey, Oh Jackie Dailey! She's passionate, energetic, loud, crazy, obnoxious,uses foul language,cares about her students, and is stuck in her own little planet! If your goal is to breeze by your english class, then I urge you don't take the Dailey! This professor you will either love or hate, there is no grey area. I'm leaning to the latter!
Dailey is an AMAZING teacher. She is always there for her students and is very helpful if you're confused on an assignment. A lot of people think she gives a lot of work, I do not. She is the best teacher I have ever had. Her class is sooo much fun and you will laugh your butt off! I am sad this is my last semester of english with Dailey :(
Dailey. Simply an amazing woman who cares about her students. She made English class worth coming to because of her personality, ambition, loud, funny and caring. Don't mess with Dailey! She wants everyone to succeed. Thank you for your positive energy and finally found a book I liked and finished for the first time!
Dailey rocks as an English teacher ! She's freaking awesome :)
Loved this class. Best professor ever! :)
Dailey is an awesome teacher and person. She may be a tough teacher but she does it so you understand the material and the requirements. Would recommend her and would definitely take another class with her!!!
Dailey is an AWESOME teacher love her she is a bit tough but she has a great heart and cares about the success of her students <3
She is very tough but she helps you whenever you need it! She is a fun and very outgoing person which makes the class fun. Her work may be tough and annoying but having a class with her will help you be prepared for much harder classes
Best professor ever! If you are there because you feel like you have to be, you'll have a tough time. But if you want to learn, there is no one better! She's a tough grader, expects a lot, and Willard you work for your grade. But you will learn more from her than any other teacher you've had. Plus, she's gorgeous! Enjoy!
She is an awesome teacher.I had her for both 101 and 102. If you are looking for an easy class DO NOT take her. She will make you work for your grade. I would recommend her for anyone who wants to become a better writer and wants a well earned grade. Gotta love purple love too :)
Dynamic, intelligent, interesting, caring, and perhaps a bit profane, Dailey is an awesome professor. She isn't easy, but do you really want to do the easy thing? Her class is challenging, but I learned so much, it was well worth it. She will make you work for your grade, much like you will be tested in the real world. This class is fun and hard.
Dailey, well what can I say about Dailey. Hilarious woman. She really cares about her students and their success not only in the class, but in life as well. She will make your work for your grade and keep reminding you what you need to work on, but it is worth it because I did an amazing job after the second half. Thanks Dailey.
I love her so much. but she is a tough grader
Good Teacher
What I can say about Dailey, first impression of her is a woman who looks very young for her age and a positive attitude. She sweet as a button, fun, energetic, and a strong educator that I know. Whoever hired Dailey, you did a wonderful job. She has high hopes for her students and she LOVES DICAPRIO SO MUCH! #HatersBackOff #DaileyIsQueen
The Best Eng. Professors and the funnest Professor
Dailey is the best English teacher I ever had! I didn't realize how and at which moment exactly, but she took me on the higher level of English skills during the first semester with her, when I didn't know how to speak English at all. She made believing in myself; believing that I can do what I didn't think I could. Impossible is possible with her!
Dailey. She's a great professor who cares a lot about her students futures and wants community students to know they can be University graduates. She funny, she's very blunt. If you have anxiety when it comes to school or in general I don't recommend but she will get you where you should be.
I have never enjoyed an English class in my entire life until I took ENG101 with Dailey. If you're looking for an easy A, she isn't the professor for you. She works with you, gives great feedback, and she is dedicated to her students. Don't skip class either! I've never had so many laughs in a classroom before. Overall, unforgettable memories.
By far the best professor on campus. She is someone that truly cares for every single student that she has. She is going to push you to your limits but at the same time having her for a professor is so much fun. She is going to have fun in class everyone and be ready to talk and help make everyone come out of their shell.
Best prof Ive ever had. Her 101 class is tough, but I Learned a lot from it. There are a lot of papers involved, but aside from that I really enjoyed the class. Definitely not the kind of professor to drone on and on in her lectures, Dailey keeps things interesting during class time. Highly recommend
Dailey so far is the best English Proffesor I had at HCC. She makes you work hard for your grade but she truely cares for each of her students and she makes class to be a lot of fun. At times she may give a lot of homework and assigns a lot of reading to do but don't give Dailey a hard time or her cobra will come out.
By far the best professor i have had, class is really hard with lots of homework but if you give it your all you will pass. If you dont try at all you will not, as simple as that. This proffesor will not let you down if you are looking for a challenge but i reccomend her 100% and i wish i could take her class again -sloth
Hardest class I have taken so far, but 100% worth it. If you're a hard working student who wants to improve their literary skills and writing, look no further! But beware, her classes are not for the faint of heart; be ready for heavy analyses, rewrites, and lots of reading. Her class (or Kingdom) will leave you with unforgettable, fun memories :)
She is just too much. She demands your papers to be perfect ad she very detailed.
Dailey's love for teaching and literature is infectious. Being in her classroom is an experience that people don't forget because her positive energy is real. To complain (as the last person did) about her "being too much" is absurd as she is so hard-working and committed to helping every student, no matter their skill. Long live the Cobra!
Although I didnt so well in this class, I do highly recommend it. It can be a challenge and there is quite a lot of reading, but Professer Dailey is always willing to help. She is also very funny, and entertaining. This class was the only class I have ever been excited for! She teaches in a way that makes you remember everything she talks about!
Her class was my very first in-person college class I took I was extremely nervous. if you ask for help she will do everything she can to help you. Her class was fun and a good environment to be in. she is tough on you if you don't do your homework so if you're hoping for an easy A you're out of luck. one of the best teachers I've ever had.

Jacqueline Dailey is a professor that cares about the outcomes of her students, and will work with them individually to help them improve. While you will have to put effort into this course, Dailey is not unreasonable. You will have to participate more than you would in most other classes, but you will do so in a welcoming and friendly environment.
Really caring and very respectful but doesn't play
Nothing
Horrible teacher for online classes. She lives in the past, and will require all students to actually print out articles and annotate them because it's what she prefers, rather than just annotating them electronically. She claims that all of these extra steps is so that the student learn better but she just scared of change. Worst type of teacher.
She is a nice and funny person. A tough grader, its definitely harder to get an A in her class. My only really problem is the grading system is ambiguous you could get a very low grade for only a few reasons. I would like a more clear grading system to explain the process. Be careful taking her class.
The two people who evaluated Dailey for this past semester must have an axe to grind about their own lack of effort--or bad grade--- in a college class. First of all, Dailey NEVER required that we print out any article. She doesn't live in the past! She accepted any form of annotation from Google Classroom docs/slides/cell pictures, you name it.
Professor Dailey likes things done her way. She is super funny though, youll laugh in her class. However, I did not like online classes with her, I wouldnt recommend it. Her grading system is quite difficult to understand how shell comment that you did excellent on your essay but still give you a B-. I wish she had an actual descriptive rubric.
Dailey is tough am not going to lie but if your worried your not a good writer take her class and I promise you will be a better writer coming out of her class. She is dedicated to her class and does not take slack at all which I prefer. If you plan not to have good attendance this class is not for you. she gives a lot of feedback in papers too.
I loved taking Professor Dailey's class!! Her grading is fair and consistent. Her class was engaging and fun, and I would take it again without a second thought. She is available to help when needed, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure students are getting the most out of her class. I grade her an A+ with a purple pen!
Not one of the best experiences that Ive had taking her as a professor. She always expected so much but failed to properly guide students on the mistakes they were making wrong. Instead she would go on rampages expressing her anger on how your work did not meet up to her expectations. It became overwhelming overtime
Dailey has high standards for all of her students. I struggled with the first part of her class, but you will get to understand her grading more and more after each assignment. You wont get feedback on all your assignments, but definitely get tutoring help because she hates grammar mistakes. Shes the aunt I wish I had. Very funny as well
Dailey will say things that throw you off, she'll pick at every minor mistake on your assignments, she'll even make you question if your previous teachers actually got a degree. But trust me when I say you need to take her class. She will motivate you, drill material into your brain, & make you a better writer. BEST & MOST ORGANIZED ZOOM TEACHER!
She is an overall great teacher to have who is smart and really fun. She cares a lot about her students, which is reflected by the fact that she maintains a high standard and pushes them to do better and improve. On a more personal note, I appreciated how she made us keep our cameras on. It was the closest experience to being in a real classroom.
I took both 101 & 102 with Dailey. Yes it was a lot of work and at times I wanted to scream, but at the end I was a better writer from it. She expects a lot from her students but honestly its college. Sometimes the work load is heavy but if you talk with her and show her you want it she's willing to work with you. Overall great professor!
This teacher sucks. She give the class an assignment that was posted on 10/7 and due on the 7th but claimed it was posted at the being of the week. She then pushed the due date back from 10/7 @ 10:45 AM to 4 PM that's not enough time for college students to do work. She also claims that papers should be done a certain way but doesn't explain how
Dailey is the kind of professor that you either love or hate; it depends on what type of student you are. She's a tough professor, but you can tell she really cares about her students. Strict grader, and doesn't like taking late work, but if you talk to her she will work with you. I can attest to this. Whatever grade you get, you know you earned it
Dailey is the ONLY person who could get me out of my lazy funk with school. If she hadn't stepped up in her strict but fun-loving way, id still be on probation. You will work for your grade and that leads to nasty comments that a few people leave. The last comment is BS. Dailey offers enough time for assignments and works hard toshowus howtowrite.
Awful Class, She expects too much from students without the proper guidance. She posts homework assignments and is very inconsiderate of her students personal lives. She required students to have the camera on for the entire zoom classes. I DO NOT recommend taking her class
Lots of busy work, this professor is extremely particular about the way you write and format essays. She makes that clear at the start. Very friendly. Very tight about deadlines. I'm a trans person and she kept getting my pronouns wrong after I spent half the semester trying to educate her. She means well but it was frustrating.
Dailey is great! she's super fun and personable. i enjoyed her class because this women keeps you in check. don't slack and read her directions and there shouldn't be problems! if there is, just talk to her. shes really the best and super nice.
I love Dailey as a prof. I only had two classes aside from hers but having work due for all of them was a lot. She doesn't assign simple homework, mainly the kind of thing you'll spend hours at a time working on in various intervals. Class discussions are thought provoking, she cares about her class. Strict to keep students from abusing deadlines.
The right professor for your ENG 101 class.
Professor Dailey is kind but rigid, with harsh grading and minimal feedback. Creativity is discouraged as she heavily critiques deviations from her interpretation She struggles with accommodations and enforces strict policies, making her classes challenging. If you value structure over flexibility, she may be a fit, but be prepared. good person tho
She will push you to do your best. I hated English but she made me like it.
This professor is very interesting and funny however she is a very tough grader. Her expectations are outlined very clearly along with her directions. She grades on participation in class so I don't recommend her class for introverts or people with anxiety in social situations.
