With this being my last English credit for my degree, Im going to miss attending her classes. Mrs. Willman has a great sense of humor and the class was very involved. Some papers were grueling to finish, but thats expected with most classes. She gives good feedback and is accommodating to students. I wish there were more professors like her!

I'm going to miss Mrs. Willman so much. She gave me confidence in my writing and made me feel like my constant hard work paid off. If you put in the effort, she will notice. Also, don't be afraid to communicate with her if something is going on in your personal life. Overall, just don't use "you" in your essays and you'll be good!

I took this class online and it was really easy until I had to write my first essay, and it was a pretty good essay, but she took off a ridiculous amount of points because I had one grammar mistake. My grade dropped so much since the essay was worth so much that I had to withdraw. Not only that.

She is very difficult to get in touch with. If you are writing to her she won't respond until days later. When she grades something she takes off a crap ton of points for one mistake. Her feedback doesn't help what so ever. Would not take her, she isn't very present.

The directions she gave us were always unclear. Most of the reading instructions were incorrect and not related to the textbook. She is also a harsh grader, she will take off several points for small mistakes and only essays (4) will improve your grade. Theres barely any assignments for this class.

This Proffesor has been nothing but rude and arrogant in her grading style. She demands your work is perfect and takes major points off of assignments with only a few errors. The feedback has not been helpful, she tells you what you've done wrong but does not explain how to fix it or why its wrong.

Honestly too much work for a 1 credit class. Her class is unorganized, having assignments due in week 5 that were "locked" however were expected to work on it since week 1. The course load is more than English 2. Her requirements on assignments are not clear and are sporadic. Her grading style is difficult, but she seems nice. Wouldn't recommend

I don't know what's up with the last like 5 or 6 comments, and I also can't speak on her online classes, but she's the best English professor I've ever taken. Yes, there's a lot of writing, but it's an English class. Come on! I had the worst teacher ever teach me grammar in middle school, but she made it easy to understand.

Even if your paper is grammatically correct, she will knock off 10 points if she finds one sentence to be "awkward." Her instructions are so incredibly unclear that more than half of our class misunderstood and resulted in us doing double the work. Every single one of us got an F for that. There is absolutely NO reasoning with her. Awful professor.

It seems like the class experience differ whether you take it live or online. Prepare your week ahead of time because online class has a lot of assignments. Her instructions aren't always clear, she'll knock off a lot of points for small mistakes, and she'll create new due dates even though canvas says it's another day. Wouldn't recommend.

I don't understand why English teachers feel the need to be so strict. In my opinion, English should be separated into two different courses. One for people pursuing literary careers, and for everyone else, it should be a course about communication.

She is a bit strict on formatting but after one assignment or two you will get used to it. the activities we did in 1102 especially were very engaging and pretty easy. She grades fast, I found about Wednesday most things would be graded and she lets you re write an essay in both 1101 and 1102 to be replaced with a score you got below a 60 on.

Mrs. Willman was a great professor and helped me to expand my writing skills. She offered assistance if I had any questions and gave great feedback on our papers before they were graded.

Definitely would recommend this professor. It's somewhat easy to get an A if you read or watch the course material. This is either a book or a TV series and you essentially analyze the characters and time period. The work isn't difficult as it mainly comprises discussions and quizzes about the show or book. The end-of-course project is worth a lot.

AWFUL. Rude and condescending. Accused me of using AI on an entirely me-written paper for 5 months, would NOT LET UP. even the dean was on my side. Eventually read the supplemental paper I came in and wrote to prove I didn't use AI, changed her mind on a whim and didn't apologize for the five months of stress she caused. Never take her if you can.
