Love Jen. I would recommend her to anyone taking Eng 110. She's very nice, extremely helpful, and gives you tons of time for in-class writing, making it super easy to know you're doing the right things. You'll get an easy A if you're asking for help when you're unsure of grammar or how to word things. Just do the work and TRY. Class is sup. intrstg

I took this online so it wasn't too bad. Professor Richrath answered any emails pretty quickly. She did take a while to grade things it would take a couple weeks to get back tests or papers. Interesting class though if you like the arts and the more recent history of them

Great Teacher, great class. One of the most kind and understanding teachers I have had. She clearly did not let students walk over her and take advantage of her loose and fun classroom but when trouble came up she was more then willing to find a way to make it work!

Professor Richrath was amazing this semester! I had her for both ENGL110 Online and FILM110 and she was great for both! Not much homework or tests. Very accessible, caring, helpful, and flexible. DEFINITELY would take her again and would recommend! Always tries to make lectures interesting and was always prepared for class. Take her if you can!

Professor Richrath was a great Humanities 125 teacher. All homework is due every two weeks which includes: 2 discussion posts, 2 quizzes, the unit homework, and notes. She was a great choice for an online class. I would definitely take her again.

I took this class as a four week summer minimester online. I would recommend it to anyone. I wish I would have taken this as one of my first college classes. It was so helpful to have a refresher because now I feel more confident moving forward with my other classes. She was a great teacher! Very helpful and WANTS you to succeed. Take her!!!

I would highly recommend Prof Richrath. I've taken her twice (film and humanities) and both times were great. She is incredibly kind and supportive. You do have to work for your grade, but it never feels like an uphill battle because she wants you to succeed and is right there with you.

I would highly recommend Prof. Jen Richrath! I've taken her once (for Engl110), and recently enrolled in her Humanities125 class for next semester. She is incredibly kind and supportive! You do have to work for your grade, but if you have any questions she is accessible outside of class hours. She wants to see you succeed.

I recommend taking any of her classes if able. I took a 4 week Eng 110 class online and for being such a condensed class, she was amazing. She is truly what every professor should be. She genuinely wants you to do well in her class. She emails back fast, is a very fair grader and extremely understanding.

Very slow on grading. Tests and quizzes are near impossible. I read all material and watch videos provided as well at movies and not good enough. I'm struggling soooo bad.

Every module (bi-weekly) felt highly challenging due to multiple discussion posts, movies, books, textbook reading, homework assignments, quizzes, exams, and note-taking during lectures. The workload was overwhelming and hindered my progress. I also found all of this hard to balance with my job.

Professor Richrath is a good professor. I enjoyed this class. I liked her choice of movies that we watched during the semester. The tests are a little difficult but not to bad. The director project was my favorite project.
