very hard on grading students' papers
Come on Professor Jones......ease up...please....
No Comments
Professor Jones is a very nice and helpful professor. She actually takes the time to make sure us students understand what is going on. Thanks Professor Jones for grading us on our capability and not for only your expectations.
Professor Jones, is a great teacher and I would love for her to teach my kids one day if she is still teaching.
Dr. Jones is a very helpful and friendly professor. She has a good sense of humor and is worth taking as a teacher.
Prof. Jones is one of the most flabergasted people that I have ever met in my life.Her teahcing skills are up to par in every aspect. Not only does she excercise everything that is in her job description, she further's it by showing her students she cares

I would not recommend her to anybody not even my worst enemy. She does not know how to grade and is a total snob. She is ****. If you are a guy she grades your paper differently and you will fail.
When trying to write a professional don't come up to her for help. She doesn't try very hard to make sure you understand what is going on in class. She has lots of issues at home which she brings to work and takes out her anger on your papers.
She is a very nice and helpful person. She is a little hard on grading your papers, but she will give you a chance to make corrections.
At first she comes off as being very tough but she's nat as tough as she comes across. She is more than willing to help in any way possible.
Professor Jones is so great. Seriously. In addition to being the MOST ATTRACTIVE teacher in the ENTIRE english department, she is also smart and willing to help you out. Anyone who says otherwise is obviously someone who hasn't done **** in that class!
Dr. Jones brings with her teaching style, a type of overall bias. She seems to grade on a personal basis, leaving behind all forms and codes of ethics. Please take this class if you are a female. Men don't stand a chance! Good luck, you will need it!
This professor is for the women, by the women, and grades good for the women! Men BEWARE! This is a money maker class for FMU--but you must have it, so AVOID Dr. Jones at all cost, especially men!
Dr. Jones is a very good professor. She may be hard but that's what college is about. If you can't learn something in her class then you are obviously not ready to be in college. If anyone says any different, they're lazy people who need to go to FDTC.
Take this class if you want a cold senseless woman with no clue on how to motivate male students. Class discussion revolves around feminine issues only! She should lobby FMU administration to teach a women's literature class-her expertise is in that area!
Professor Jones is not the most easy professor at FMU but she is not the hardest either. She actually helps you outside of class if you take the opportunity.About her being **** is ridicoulous. It's a joke stop being narrow minded, and all high school.
PROFESSOR JONES IS AN OK TEACHER. SHE DOES HAVE HER MOMENTS WHERE YOU SAY, "NO SHE DIDN'T JUST SAY THAT!" I AM NOT A MALE BUT I DO FEEL LIKE SHE IS JUST A LITTLE HARDER ON THE MALES THAN FEMALES... OH WELL I MADE AN A!
Sucks... Takes forever to give papers back... Hates Most Males... Grades Unfairly... Thinks shes funny, but shes not... By far the worst teacher I have ever had at FMU...
Dr Jones may be hard but her African American Literature class was very interesting. She should me and my classmates different aspect of our culture. Good class to take.
Prof. Jones is a great teacher, u can talk to her about anything,more like a student than teacher sometimes.Loves to joke as for her not liking MEN just a joke!get over it im a male and i passed with a B. GO 2 WRITING CENTER AND HER ON EVERY PAPER!!!
DR. Jones is a great professor. She hepled me to profect my writing and everything about it. Okay I will admit that she has her days, but don't we all. She is a very well rounded teacher unlike some of the other d**** heads on this campus. If you go to her for help she will make sure to help you.
She is a good teacher even though she make things as harder then she should. As long as you stay on her good side, you should be fine.
Get on her good side and milk it. Trust me. I was on her good side and got a B. CAN'T STAND THE WOMAN, though. Put on a smile and some ear muffs and have at it. She IS feminist and DOES make you do a lot of homework. It's not that we're lazy; she's just too D*mn boring and narrow minded.
Her class was very interesting and she taught me how to read the works of Black artist and use critical thinking to "feel" their expressions. Overall, the teachings will help in the long run because you'll know how to read books with a greater understanding instead of "skimming words."
VERY **** woman...would NOT recommend to ANYONE...offered no help when asked for it...rude, obnoxious, self-centered, self-absorbed,...do I really need to go on? DON'T TAKE HER CLASS!!!!!!!!!!!!
She is very nice,but don't get on her bad side because she will make you pay. Visit her office occasionally to show her that you are serious and you will be just fine. OH yeah don't try to turn in no paper that doesn't meet her requirements because she will throw it in the trash!!!
This lady is a devil...DON'T TAKE HER CLASS...She's a lonely, smarty pants feminist. She tries so hard to appear intelligent and funny. (NOT!!!) She's full of BS. She brags on her ability to fail U. If U have Prof Jones run for the boarder or U will pay the price, A low GPA...
I have Dr. Jones this semester, and so far so good. She's a great teacher with a funny sense of humor. Over all I think she's one of the best professors I have.
I like Dr. Jones and for those who hatin, something must be wrong. If u didn't like her, then you don't have a sense of a humor. She is mad cool. That's my dog. She is real and that's probably why you didn't like the class.
Get her! She's an awesome teacher and she makes you think...which is what you should be doing in college anyways! She makes class very fun and talks about interesting topics. She is also very helpful, go to her for help because she WILL help you! Great professor!
She is not helpfull at all and does not help you with grammer on your papers!!!!!!!!!
DR.JONES IS A PRETTY COOL TEACHER. WHEN I FIRST STARTED HER CLASS I THOUGHT IS WOULD BE HARD BUT ITS NOT. SHE WANTS YOU TO LEARN TO WRITE WORK THAT YOU LOVE AND NOT BS JUST TO GET A GRADE. YEA, SHE MAY BLAST YOU IN FRONT OF EVERYBODY BUT YOU GOTTA SHOW HER THAT YOU ARE WILLING TO DO BETTER.

Dr. Jones is a wonderful professor for first year college students. She wants you to love your work! Oh and her favorite word is "fabulous." If she says that about your paper, you know you're doing good! Oh and other thing, when she starts talking about dropping students, it's funny! Very funny! TAKE HER!!!!!!! And she loves football!! Hee hee!
Dr. Jones is AWESOME!!! She has a quirky sense of humor and it makes Monday mornings go by really quick. Don't believe those people who say she's mean. She doesn't take "high school" excuses, but HELLO this isn't high school people! I loved her class so much I'm going to try to take one of her classes again. Take her, I promise it's worth it!
i loved this class!! dr. jones can be a pest at times but the class is FABOLOUS!! she wants everyone to succeed in life
I luv professor jones. She is such a cool teacher and she is very helpful many people accuse her of being weird but she is one of the coolest an easy A if you take the time out to do the work
Horrible!!! she is so unorganized! if you do not agree with her, she will not give you a good grade! Please agree with everything she says! Dont have an opinion of your own. Its worthless!
Dr. Jones is a great teacher to have. When you first have her, she appears to be mean no-nonsensed, but she is very helpful and easy. Her class is an easy B...
she's unorganized, but she does have a personality! her discussions in class are interesting, and allows for debate. most ppl in my class didn't like her but I didn't think she was too bad. wouldn't recommend her if you have a hard time with unorganized professors.
Dr. Jones is brilliant. People that don't like her are usually lazy and not very intelligent. Her class challenges you to think about the way you view the world. One of my best classes so far.
Dr.Jones was the best teacher I've ever had at FMU!! The first day of class she may seem mean and strict but she is a very cool person...I LOVED THIS CLASS....IT WAS SOOOO EASY....TAKE THIS CLASS!!!!!
WoW. Wild Class. IT was very educational. Slavery, Drama, Poems, and short stories and essays.
She Makes you think. It's college that what you are supposed to do. Lazy ****s, she does her job, and now it is time you do yours.
GREAT CLASS! at first it may seem as though she's strict, but she's not that bad. she says funny stuff & she's pretty easy to relate to. she makes the things that we do interesting. i wouldn't recommend her if you're lazy and not interesting in actually learning.
If you want to study about slavery and black history this is the teacher for you, but this is all you will be doing.
Dr. Jones is great. The comment about getting bad grades if you don't share her opinion is completely false. If anything, she wants you to have your own opinion. The whole point of her class is to make you think and to get you involved in meaningful discussion. Oh, and to write a little, too. Assignments aren't tough, but you've got to go to class.
Funny personality and helpful professor. Obviously she has alot of personal issues ranging from anger, controlling issues and closemindness...BEWARE...it reflects in all da class discussions...i believe in equal rights for all but she bashes men when she gets da chance...can anyone say FEMINIST?
She is a great professor however her expectations are high. If you haven't ever worked hard in English you better be prepared to now. She was big on critical thinking and won't except anything but superior work.
Please do not take this woman unless you appreciate discouraging and rude remarks. Although she is helpful outside of the classroom, she is a straight **** inside the classroom and tries to make you feel extremely insuperior. She thinks that she is 'fabulous' and it just gets old. If you take her, good luck.
I had Dr. Jones my fresman year for Eng 200 and i liked her so I took her African Lit class the following year. She is very critical but not intimidating. I love writing so I enjoyed the challenge and the class setting. (Oh yeah she will definitly tell you if your paper sucked so if you hate honesty, don't take the class)
If you have conservative opinions, you will not agree with anything this woman says. She claims to be fabulous, which gets very annoying. She also thinks she is better than everyone else. Take another professor if you can. Not worth it.
OMG...DON'T TAKE JONES IF YOU'RE AGAINST RUDENESS! SHE THINKS SHE IS FABULOUS BUT REALLY NOT. AND YOU CAN TELL BY JUST LOOKING AT HER...CAN TELL EVEN MORE WHEN SHE SPEAKS. IF YOU ABOSOLUTELY LOVE ENGLISH, TAKE HER, OTHERWISE RUN THE OTHER WAY!!!!!
Go to class prepared, pay attention, participate, & you'll do well. She often reminds us of how fabulous she is, & she is bc she has confidence in everything she does. When she says she is fab, she is reminding us to always be confident. I advise those who find her humor offensive to lighten up, & to never go to a comedy club.
Ok. Dr. Jones is awesome. Don't listen to what anyone else says. Yes she will call on you randomly in class. Yes she expects you to give 100 %. Yes she expects you to think critically. She will constantly say she is right to get you to disagree and argue your point. But it is a good class and as long as you work hard, you'll do fine.
She is an angel. While taking her AA LIT class, I became very ill and had to undergo surgery. She was the only professor that came to my bed side and see how i was doing. Also, when I got back home, she sent me letters of encouragement. She is very smart on her subject matter! She would be back at FMU in the Fall of 2011. Take her class
By far, one of the absolute worst teachers I've ever had. She doesn't give clear directions, she isn't very helpful, and doesn't give you clear cut feedback. If you can avoid her, please do. You'll save yourself a lot of heartache.
Dr. jones is awesome. I loved her class. She makes you work hard and she knows it. Make an effort to talk to her after class and she'll appreciate it. I think she's really funny and despite a tough exterior, she cares. Take her class if you get the chance.
Dr. Jones is a great teacher. She challenges all of her students to think critically and to write for themselves. She is very honest and does not mind sharing her opinion. You will have to work hard in her class but it's worth it in the long run.
Im currently taking Dr.Jones for ENG 250 and I love her ! She makes going to class worth it , she is hilarious and she just wants you to put fourth an effort and think critically ! Dont try to agree with her or give "textbook" answers as long as you give her what you really think the rest of the class is easy to pass !
I loved Ms. Jones Class , She is a very open person and she is HILARIOUS! She's willing to help out if you dont understand. For my first assignment I admitted that I slightly plagiarized and she gave me an hour to re-submit the assignment to her with my own thoughts ! overall she's great !
OKAY!!!! This was my very first class, my first semester (after transferring in) and on day one.....She scared the hell out of me and I think the entire class. Day two: she says " of look, I already weeded out who wasn't going to make it!" Hands down, best professor at FMU! I actually nominated her as professor of the year! PLEASE TAKE! She rocks!!
Worst teacher I have ever had. I will not even call her a professor.... She does not grade work, she loses students work, she is rude, I could go on and on DO NOT TAKE HER unless you want a semester full of headaches. I want to go to the president and ask for my money back after taking the class I beg you DO NOT TAKE HER
Best teacher ever! She most definitely makes you work for your grade, but she's always more than happy to help you. She covers a lot of material during lecture, so attendance is essential to pass. I would absolutely take her class again!
Dr. Jones was definitely a character but overall a very good professor. She's very inspirational and also a feminist. The life lessons are ones to remember. Just turn in all of your assignments and show your interest in them & you'll easily ace the class.
Great Teacher. Her humor can be offensive but don't take it the wrong way. Its a community in a classroom so be yourself. She is a bit crazy but cool. Email her if you have any questions with the novels and papers you read and do. Not many papers so do you ultimate best you can. She wants you to read and continue to read even after the semester end
I really enjoyed her class, she actually inspired to start reading again. She makes her discussion really fun. She can come intimidating at first, but if you stick it through you'll find yourself really enjoying the class.
Pretty unorganized but works out in student's favor. Talk a lot in class and participate in discussion. Stop by her office every now and then and you'll pass easily!
She talks a lot in class sometimes off topic and she is a bit sarcastic. Make sure you buy the books she assigns for the class because a lot of the material and writings come from the books nd assigned readings.
She's an amazing professor! Make sure you read the material and participate in class! She's an excellent recommendation letter writer!
Dr. Jones is awful. She's one of the rudest people I've ever met and she doesn't use class time to teach, but rather gives assignments and yells about previous assignments. Do not take.
Dr. Jones is a great professor ! I received my very first A in English, in her class. Be prepared for class. Get the necessary materials ! Don't use your cell phone ! Ask for help if needed ! Be attentive & engage in classroom discussions. She wants to see all of her students do well , but it's up to each student what their destiny will be.
She is the best and you will do great in her class she is always accessible outside of class. The only way you can fail is if you don't do the work. Anytime she has office hours please go and see her because she has helpful information waiting. Just do the work and ask for help if needed and be sure to read read read!!
She cares about the subjects she teaches, which is good, but she shows less care for students. Despite being liberal, she's closed-minded. Opinions that differ from hers, even in small ways, are often met with long, rude, lectures about why you're wrong in public forum. Hateful comments about failing students and grades are common. Avoid.
She talks ALOT so be ready for that . She doesnt stay on topic and its really annoying. Her class is relatively easy as long as you do the work. You wont have homework so thats a plus but you will have to remember the stories we read in class because every one is on the final .
She is not all bad, but she is very difficult. Did not understand entirely what she wanted. She was very vague with that and the research and critique assignment. Will criticize you if you have a different opinion from her and will grade accordingly to that. Horrible at returning grades on time for assignments . I am just happy I passed
Professor Jones is a handful. Not only are her papers roughly graded, but she assigns papers on topics of her interest that are extremely hard to write about in length(can be up to eight pages). Although this did not happen to me personally, she will call out students in class on their writing skills and embarrass them purposely.
Visit her during office hours shell remember that!!
Grades people based on their "personal experiences". This actually means that certain students (who can't write as well as others for example) get graded more harshly. Also if you have a learning disability don't tell her she will pick on you and talk about it
Don't take this professor - Online or in person. She treats students horribly and is extremely objective. If you are 'different' than her at best you'll get a C-. Also is very willing to humiliate students in class for no reason other than to 'punish' them for being 'different' from her
She is very disrespectful to students. she undermines them and tries to belittle them with their academics. She does not email back in an orderly manner ,hard to get in contact with. At this point Im just happy Ive passed her class.
Even though it was a bit stressful I did learn a lot of information. Dr. Jones is very talented and knows her African American literature, the only reason why this class was chaotic is because it was unorganized. She move from in person to online and did not follow her syllabus AT ALL. Just beware of the massive changes and her criticism.
Made me a better scholar. It pushed me to both analyze and think more. She taught me that being a thinker isn't enough. You have to sit and work through the text. She requires more of you than the bare minimum and that means you shouldn't take her class "for fun" but she's a great Professor.
This is the single least respected professor in the English department. When I complained about her forcing us to meet weekly for an asynchronous online class she literally lost her mind and called me a slaving racist. This person represents the worst of fmu and the society we live in.
