Fun, helpful, and interesting. Great teacher overall. Her online lecture's were well done and she takes time to respond to all questions. She splits the class into 4 parts. The first 3 parts end with an exam, which is 6 essays each. I felt that was a bit extreme, but I still managed a good grade. The last part is a project paper.

This class seems to be one of the easiest english courses i've ever taken. As a long time hater of english, and the ways of teaching it; i loved this class. There were more research and opinion based papers and we only read on book which 90% of the population has read before. I would highly recommend this teacher and her minimester.

I took Dr. Onega for summer English and I absolutely loved her, she graded my papers quickly and always gave me feedback for improvement. The material at times might have been slightly boring but that is English for ya. 10/10 would take her again if I ever had the chance.

I am a high schooler taking these two classes over the summer for course advancements. Easier than any high school English class Ive taken. She grades very lightly while giving good feedback. She truly cares and values her students and she will do everything in her power to help you pass. I finished 101 with a 93 and 102 with a 104.

I absolutely loved Dr. Onega. I took her class for dual credit and she was super caring. She gives a video lecture of her reviewing the material along with notes that you can use when taking the exam. In addition, she provides amble opportunities to earn extra credit or points back. All you have to do is ask! Overall, if you can, take her class!

I had her for ENG 101 & 102 online minimesters and it was great. She's clear in what she asks in her assignments, and you really dont have that many. She doesn't make you turn in lots of busy work at all which I like but if you're someone who relies on filler grades I wouldn't take a minimester, you really only have a couple quizzes and the papers.

Professor Onega is the kind of person every upcoming college professor should strive to be! She is very kind with her words, clear and concise when giving feedback. Not too tough of a grader either! I enjoy this class!

Dr. Onega was a brilliant teacher! She offered clear approaches to material discussed for assignments and lots of assistance if needed. She provides excellent feedback on projects and always has a positive outlook! She also offered an extra credit option! Be prepared to read though.

Dr. Onega is an absolutely amazing professor, she's probably the best professor I've ever had, and she helped me realize that maybe I actually do want to major in English! I had her for American Lit. 2, and the class was really enjoyable. It really wasn't super hard, just read the stuff that you need to read and you're all good. Would 100%reccomend

Such a fabulous professor. I took her for a Summer mini semester and my only qualm was that the class was too short. She gives clear grading criteria and very specific feedback that is geared toward making you a better writer. She also meets you where you currently are in your journey and speaks to what is realistic and will help you improve.

She is a great teacher; she does not expect you to be an award-winning writer and actually cares about teaching you to write instead of expecting you to know everything. She does not focus on the format so much as she does actually writing. If you can take a teacher, take her!!!!!!!

I did not try as hard as I should have in this class, but she was still super sweet and understanding. Even though I turned in some essays super late at night that probably barely made sense, she gave me a 95 every time. She bumped my grade up to a 90 at the end (I forgot to do a lot of quizzes) she is amazing. I totally recommend!

Mrs. Onega was great! Her grading wasn't harsh at all and she gave amazing specific feedback for each essay. The readings were pretty straightforward and the only work other than the essays were a few 10 question quizzes. There were a few opportunities as well to write more personally/creatively, as well as some extra credit opportunities.

There aren't enough words to describe Dr. Onega! She is truly incredible and such a sweet person. She is the only teacher I've ever had that has actually made me want to write. Even taking her online course, you can tell she cares so much and wants everyone to learn and succeed! So thorough and sweet in her emails and feedback! Not harsh at all.

She was really good when it came to giving back feedback on the essays that we wrote. Each week we would only have an essay and a quiz with reading material that ranged from 20-90 pages. She graded all the essays really easily and the quizzes were only 4-5 true or false questions. Definitely recommend taking her. I would take this class again.

So so so amazing. She's so caring. There was a time I accidentally submitted the wrong essay and she said it was totally okay and to submit the right one whenever! She only does 1 assignment a week. So easy!
