BTW, she creates her own booklet with everything you will need throughout the semester (which is another reason to love her). It's easy to carry, has pages on punctuation, citing, and how to improve your grammar. Best of all, it saves you from having to buy any textbooks.

She is unlike any other instructor out there. She has her own unique way of teaching and really lays things out in simple terms. She shows you different ways to write and essay & lets you choose. She not only teaches you how to write better, she also teaches you about your surroundings and life in general. She is like the mom you wish you had.

Professor Vega was definitely my favorite professor Ive had, for sure Id redo her class all over again. Shes such a funny and young at heart professor, but she isnt afraid to be honest and difficult when it comes to grading and thats because she wants you to pass. To pass her class is easy, show up, do the papers correctly and its an easy A.
