The Professor is extremely well educated, and enjoys helping her students!

Has a p.h.d. It shows. Very passionate about what she does. Good class for those that want to be challenged and actually work something. Finally, IM OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL and this class made me feel like im getting on with my life. Good class discussions too.

Come prepared to work. This is a reading and writing intensive class that will challenge you if you like to work, or will be a waste of everybody's time if you don't. Dr. Cheng-Levine is a consummate professional with a great passion for literature and ideas, and she's most willing to share her gifts with those who bring theirs to the table.

She is the most brilliant individual I have ever met. She has a passion for knowledge and is willing to share it with others. Reading material was well planned and most interesting. Engaged class discussions are a must. She is tough, but always willing to help with writting assignments and essays. A true reflection of university academia.

she tries helping her students as much as possible...but unfortunately she is a very difficult teacher. she grades essays very harshly. she does not base her grading on content but on style..so yea don't take this teacher unless your up for a challenge.

Very knowledgeable! Definate political agenda - enjoyable lectures. Lot of work, a nice lady, but her political standpoints clouded her teaching, at times. The reading was from obscure authors - stretched this student, a very good thing!

Just make sure you show up, read what you're supposed to, and write solid, well put-together essays. She's a really sweet lady, and she's full of energy all the time. If you really want to get something out of an English class, take Dr. Cheng-Levine, because she'll improve your reading and analyzing skills. I recommend her for all English majors.

Cheng-Levine is interesting. On one hand, she is not a teacher for slackers. On the other hand though, she has very interesting perspectives on things and often goes into interesting topics that may not have to do with english, but broaden your horizons. She has an accent, but I found her very clear and insightful into the work we went over.

Dr. Cheng-Levine is a tough teacher but I'm glad I took her. She expects a lot out of her students, but in the end it pays off. If your having trouble she's willing to help you one on one out of her own time. Very nice!!

She has a fairly strong accent but is very smart. Her class is super hard, she expects a lot and takes it personal if you miss class or if you don't turn in work. Her lectures are her strong point. NOT AN EASY CLASS!

She is not an easy teacher, but if you really want to learn how to write well and about current issues, she's an excellent teacher. She's very willing to help you out. That said, she does ask a lot of her students but after taking her for 101H and 102, I can honestly say that I learned a lot from her. DO NOT TAKE HER if you want the easy way out.

Dr. Cheng-Levine is one of the best teachers I have ever had. She is compassionate, interesting, engaging, and a serious ball of fire! She is not easy, but you will learn alot. I loved her class and would recommend her to everyone!

If you're a serious student-if you want something intellectually stimulating, then take any class offered with her, even if the interest isn't particularly high. She takes education seriously, she takes your opinions seriously and believe me, she'll make you feel more than just a CC student. Transfering? Then expose yourself to what's to come next.

Really good teacher! She is passionate about the subject and really cares about her students. I learned so much from her class.

I took this class as an online course over the summer. The class is a lot of reading and writing so you have to stay on top of your assignments. The class is very well organized with each week of work laid out for you. The syllabus is easy follow. I learned a lot in this class and the professor was very helpful. This class made me a better writer.

this professor is by no means "easy." you can't bs your way through class, and you're expected to develop as the class goes along. she expects your best work, and while sometimes it can be overwhelming and irritating, you'll thank her when you walk out of the class a better writer and thinker.

Dr. Cheng-Levine is an excellent teacher, and passionate about her subjects (English and the environment). She is not, however, for the faint of heart. If you want to learn how to write a near perfect essay and you're not afraid of hard work, take her. What she teaches you will serve you well through your entire academic career.

She is a very good teacher. Offeres extra credit. You will learn a lot, but it is not going to be easy.

Online. One of the top instructors at COC. Rare quality for community college. A proper academic course: challenging, enlightening, should be mandatory. No political bent - encourages disagreement. Exposes students to most current thought through variety of media. If you value mind over generic A, you will only be disappointed by other students.

RateMyProfessor Customer Service is rubbish. They never reply.Post below was for ENGL. 103 not POLYS150. Tried four times to tell them. Dr. Cheng-Levine is challenging and fair. Above all she will open your eyes to the world. If you have an issue with Dr. Cheng-Levine it's because your previous education was poor.

Online. Dr. Cheng-Levine is tough, but fair. Her course is not easy, but what you learn builds a foundation for years to come. She not only teaches proper writing technique, but also enlightens her students about the effects our decisions make on the environment.

Critical thinking class: Very wonderful professor, wants students to improve and gives excellent information on work done in class. Online class was complete, hard no skipping assignments, and be on time. Read all assignments and you will do well. Had a great experience taking this 5 week class!!

Not only a great teacher, but really an inspiring person. She is so passionate about teaching you how to really write well. Her mission of spreading environmental ethics on campus will really leave you inspired after the semester is over. She assigns a lot of work, but usually the reading material is interesting.

excellent professor. hard but fair. she offers extra credit and scholarship for students. take her class if you really want to learn.

Very good teacher, although she gives a lot of busy work mainly essays, she helps througout the class period and even out of class. She definately knows what shes saying & encourages students to improve. Very helpful!

Very nice teacher, I don't know whats up with these disgruntled commentators but she was very helpful in and out of the classroom. She is even willing to talk to you after class, and is very caring. I will be taking her again for my next English class.

I took this professor for an honors class, and I'm not gonna lie, it kicked my butt. But it's the end of the semester now, and it was so worth it. i feel so accomplished. if you put in the effort and go meet with her, then you should have no problem getting a decent grade. It's definitely a class that will prepare you for an actual university

Alot of writing, and homework but worth it in the end

She was realy hard on how she grades her essays, but if you want to take a class and really become a critiacal thinker, and you want to major in English, or you want to really improve your English skills take her, but if you want to just pass(don't take her). She does care a lot about attendance though, but she is a pretty hard.

Dr. Cheng-Levine is the best English teacher that I've ever had. She made the subject interesting, yet very rigorous. She takes a lot of time to teach the material and will take time to meet struggling students after class.

Without question, the most difficult class I have ever taken. Be prepared to write, and write a lot. No complaints other than that, she is fair and grades everybody the same, regardless if she likes you or not. If you're looking for an easy A, this class is not for you. I got an A, but felt like I did 12 rounds with Mike Tyson when it was over.

This teacher is TOUGH, she knows her subject very well and is passionate about it. She has an accent so can be hard to understand at time. She is very helpful, she even let me borrow her text book for a while seeing as I couldn't afford one right away. If you want an easy A, stay away! If you want to grow in English, take her!

Organized, helpful, but tough. Essays are expected to be written at a college level. This is college not jr. high. Prepare to discuss the readings assigned for homework in class. Attendance is crucial. If you're prone to absence and doing the minimum to get by, this class is not for you. GREAT teacher if you're serious about your academic career!

This teacher is very very helpful, shes tough but you will learn a lot! Assigns A LOT of essays and homework but by the end of the semester youll be writing essays like nothin. She has an accent that can be hard to understand but she makes sure that you understand what she is saying. I reccomend this class if you really want to improve in English.

TOUGH class! Prepare to write A LOT. Keep up with assigned reading, speak up in class, don't be late or absent. Syllabus lays out all assignments for entire semester. No excuse for not knowing what's coming. See her during office hours if you're struggling SHE WILL HELP you! Cares about her students' success in & out of class. Recommend!!

She requires that you complete a lot of work but she makes her lectures very interesting and will go far out of her way to help you along.

Dr. Cheng-Levine is anything but easy but the structure of her online classes pushes its students to work at a University level rate. I've taken two of her classes and have earned an "A" both times but they are certainly earned and not given in her class. Listen to the feedback that she gives you on your postings and essays. Best online class.

This class is great if you like to discuss. I enjoy talking about issues that effect the world today. She will try and connect old writings to modern ideas which makes the class relevant. She wants to prepare students for upper level schooling so this class will be challenging.

Do the required work, and you will pass the class. She is tough as nails, and makes no predispositions otherwise. I took the course online over summer, and it was extremely difficult. The class is a writing class, don't take her class if you don't like writing. I highly recommend Dr. Cheng-Levine, as I am a better student after taking her class.
