Prof. White makes things much harder than they have to be!
Great teacher. Really seems to enjoy helping students and loves what she does.
She has the ability to make the simple complicated--a very unfair person
She seems nice- very tough class- makes things difficult-
huh? she makes no friggin sense!!! pointless. she plays favs
not nice or leanant
she's a great teacher- explains stuff only enough- we can run with it how we wan
she needs to explain things. i still don't know what a personal essay is!!!!!
She was a bad teacher, I think a cat with a pointer could have taught better
She was an awesome prof. She was always willing to help. A lot of work thoug A
very awesome teacher
Does not know how to help anyone.Only there to make you feel small.BAD teacher.
doesn't explain well; grades easy; go to wrt lab for extra help;
She was such a great professor! Willing to help as much as you need it!

She is willing to help you by cutting you down, can make things really confusing
She's confusing, but easy to talk to through e-mail (not in person)...she's okay
nice in the beginning, but got more angry towards the end.
start early with email, she is easier to talk to that way
No Comments
Open to students opinions about their papers. Good listener. Very helpful. I would definitely take her again for another class!
She is very easy to talk to through email but in person she made me feel like crap. No matter how many times I revised papers, they were still never good enough. I got a C.
She was patient w/me. God knows I needed it! Cool prof.
A little nuts about due dates but helps me stay on track. She's cool.

Don't miss class!
Just make sure you get things done on time!
I have her to thank for doing good in Writing 150
patient and kind
Great Prof. Make sure you do the assignments on time and email her a lot of your drafts. She was very very helpful and gave me quick and helpful advice on all of my papers.
I took her course with a friend and we are both really pleased with her as a professor! Work hard and you will do fine.
Gives lots of work, but will also give lots of help and feedback while revising drafts, if you give her your papers. Gives more work than most professors.
Hard,patient, and extremely helpful. I SUGGEST TAKING HER if you want to learn! GOOD JOB JULIE.

Professor White is always willing to help and look at papers, she is an extremelly good teacher
she really wants her students to succeed. has great turn around time on proofing papers and you can always get a hold of her for extra help.
I did not enjoy her at all. She says the same thing 5 differant ways. When she critic my papers she was very inconsistent. I would not recommend her for WRT 150.
She is by far the best instructor I have ever had. Although she has high expections she makes the class enjoyable and I learned alot. I would highly recommend her to students.
Awesome teacher! Really into her students.
She has her good and bad traits. She's SO helpful and will meet any time. However, she says thing are wrong with papers, and when you try to fix them, she's still not satisfied. More strict then a lot of writing teachers but you learn a lot.
she is a very happy person, even when she is saying that oyur paper is bad or yellinga tthe class she is smilling, it gets very annoying, she is very willing to help but she says the asmae thing over and over and is very onclear aobut what she says
Good class to take if you want to learn the right way to write. At times, there is a lot to do but overall it's a good class.
One of the best Profs ever! She pushes you to do your best. The format of the class is excellent and keeps you on your toes and doesn't allow time to slack. If you take this class with her, you will definatly come out a better writer!
Julie was a great teacher to have. She pushes her classes to do their best, and I definitely came out a better writer because of it.
Great teacher, always willing to help even at the last minute. Although she does repeat herself often, and makes you sleepy. She demands alot from her students and cares for them.
She is a very good teacher, and I would recomend her to anyone..
Great professor. I learned so much in her class! Take her if you want to learn how to write.
if you are ready for a challenge then take have her for a prof. But don't take it if you aren't ready to work hard. She definately is a wonderful teacher..and I am a better writer because of her.
It feels like she forgets you DO have other classes aside from hers. If you like a challenge go for it, but if you dont feel like being assigned multiple papers at a time, this class isnt for you. I believe she means well and I will become a better writer
She does push us hard but she is the BEST! I have learned so much from taking her course!
I enjoy her class. She is nice and helpful.
Made everyone buy the "reader" that she compiled, wasn't required for any other sections. I felt I would have gotten more out of this class if I had a different professor.
She is the best teacher I have ever had at GVSU. She really cares about her students. She made me understand my writing flaws and I definitely became a better writer in her course.
She keeps the class moving and offers alot of variety. I like that. She always smells good to.
Boring class, you do nothing the whole year except write papers then at the end its all thrown together. She doesnt really (teach) so i guess its all based on how well you write.
Was a very good prof. She talks a lot and is very thorough about everything. Even though this is bad when you do not want to hear her mouth run, she gives you a lot of great feedback when it comes to the papers that you write.
She is a wonderful teacher. I learned a great deal in her class. Just be sure you get your papers to her. She helps alot one-on-one.
Julie was a very very good teacher as long as you get your work done on time, if your a slaker then don't take it, but i leared a good amout from her and she is very helpfull. One of the niceest teachers but tends to drag on and on which puts you to sleep
Great prof. Covers everything well. Nice. I would take her again if I wasnt a senior.
Great teacher! Really prepares you for the real world outside of school. Doesn't drill things into your head repeatedly but covers a lot of very useful information. Take her!!
she talks too much. compared to my friends profs, I think I would have done better to take this class with someone else. she's kind of a nag.
julie is a very good professor. she helped me understand writing much better. her class can drag sometimes, but if you pay attention and work hard throughout the semester, there is much less work at the end. she is very very helpful.
HARSH
She is very boring. You do the same thing everyday. She doesn't give you alot of writing time in class. You don't have to buy a book, which is nice. She is very nice but not very helpful unless on a one to one basis.
very nice proff. Gives her honest opinon on your work and your grade genuiunly reflects your work. Class does get a bit boring at times and you need more time to write in class, however considering its a required class I am glad that she was my proff.
Not a bad class but it is boring, but it's writing so what do you expect? Gives you all the assignments early so you can get them done early. Easy class
She's a nice person. Very helpful, but kind of annoying. She wants everyone to do well, but watch out for the Completed and Polished draft due dates. If you don't have them done, then you automatically fail. Stay on top of your work, but you can get by writing your completed drafts the night before.
Easy class. She helps out a lot if you get your papers to her in time for her to look over. Picky on attendence and having your papers in on time, but she gives you a syllabus for what you'll be doing every day of the semester, so that helps. Really good teacher.
Julie was very helpful but it was almost as if she cared too much. She was sort of a nag...constant emails and telling us we were going to fail. But I did see my work progress.
She is awesome. Really committed. Take her! By far she is the best prof I have had yet.
Best Professor I have ever had! Definitely take her for WRT 150, you'll be so glad you did!
Best Proff! If you have to take WRT 350- enroll in her class! Very helpful in Job applications.
SHe is a wonderful professor. I can understand her methods of teaching very well. I highly recommend her.
What a nag. You do the same thing every day, and then she nags you about it.
Wow she is crazy!!! She is very indirect and considers everything slang. She grades poorly and is quite possible the most boring/ horrible prof. I have ever had.
Prof. W is a very hard grader. She doesn't explain papers well at all and if you can get a different 098 teacher do it, I still don't feel prepared for 150. If you are stuck in her class she basically gives everyone a B or lower so good luck.
She is a good teacher but demanding. She makes me work hard but I am learning.
She knows what she is talking about, but doesn't come across very helpful. If you are a good writer she will tear your papers apart. If you are a bad writer she will praise you for doing C work. Very demanding, expects you to be at a college level of writing. Don't be absent or you will fail.
She is a good professor. I learned a ton but she is tough.
she rocks. she reallly helped me with my papers. take her.
Very nice professor, but hard. Very strict grading and attendance policy! Oh, and she is not hot at all!!!! I dont know who left that referall but they were way off!
she was one of the best professors i've ever had. i would recommend her to anybody taking a writing class. she's very helpful and makes you get your assignments in. Take her! she's awesome!
Good professor, always willing to help with papers. I would recommend taking her. Gives good advice and by the time portfolio's are due, you aren't too worried because you are fixing them throughout the entire semester.
awesome
She's a really good teacher and is always willing to help you in anyway she can
She only reads papers if you ask her to. She is very helpful if you ask though. She is quirky, but a very nice lady.
Excellent professor! She really loves teaching and it shows. She's always willing to help her students and gives really good feedback. Having her students do well is very important to her. I feel like a better writer now that I've taken her class. Don't hesitate to email her or stop by her office. She's always helpful. Take her class!
She was very nice. extremely helpful on papers
Horrible. She's boring and you wil be writing the same paper over and over and over again! SAVE URSELF!!!!!!!
She rocks! I love her class. She is so much fun and I learned alot about writing.
I loved her. She's funny and cool but is still serious about her job. She actually cares about her students and shows it.
I love this professor. She's so funny and always wants to make sure you understand whats going on. She's really good at helping and giving feed back on your papers too.
She was awsome! She is great at giving you helpful feedback on your papers. She truly likes her job and her students. TAKE HER!!
She was amazing! Probably the greatest Professor I had. She is so knowledgable..I would take her if at all possible. She is very helpful and truly truly cares. She gives everything all her attention. TAKE HER!!!
She literally changed my life! Her dedication to students is unbelieveable. By far, she is the best professor I have ever had at GVSU.
Best professor ever! She changed my life. Take her!
She rocks. I know she pushed me but I she really wants her students to do well. Take her!!
Julie White is an amazing Prof. She is soo helpful. She will really push you and you might resent her at first but in the end it's all worth it. My writing has improved tenfold for this and other classes.
I HATED this prof. She is a control freak. It seemed to me that she failed people that she didn't think could pass their portfolio to make HERSELF look better. SAVE YOURSELF!
She rambles on and on and on and on and on. Everything she teaches I learned in high school. She even told me (after reading my first paper) that she didn't expect such amazing writing out of me based on my demeanor in class. Rude really. Classes seem to take forever. I hate this class.
This professor is awesome! Very focused and helpful. I learned a lot.
At first, I thought she was great, but she gets worse as the semester progresses. She told me one of my papers was so bad that she wanted permission to use it in future classes to show students what a bad paper looks like. She is a perfectionist herself and expects students to be the same. Go easy on yourself and take someone else.
I learned a ton in her class. Take her!!
I really like Julie. She helped me a lot and I wasn't scared turning in my papers. I feel really confident about my portfolio and it is really because of her. She cares about her students and wants them to be better writers. I would take her again if I could. TAKE HER
BEST prof ever! i had her for the whole year 098/150 and she is definitely the best. she really makes sure her students are prepared. TAKE HER!!
This professor tops all others at GVSU! She not only helped me in class but gave me career direction that sent me soaring into a study abroad program. She is phenomenal in the classroom. I highly recommend her.
Prof. White was the best professor ever! Take her if you can! She wants nothing more than for her students to succeed. She's very honest about your writing but you'll learn a ton! She does have strict deadlines though so do your work.
Professor White was amazing. Before taking this class I hated math and was never confident in my skills. She was very helpful and would sit one on one with me to talk over my paper. Anyone that needs to take Writing, take Professor White. : )
She is hot! And she is a great prof. I definitely plan on taking her again! I learned so much.
Hot? Were you in the same class? She's very nice, pushes you pretty hard, but in the end i was happy with my grade.
She was absolutely amazing! I can't believe how much I learned in a short period of time. I highly recommend her. She really knows her stuff.
She was very enthusiastic about the class. Sometimes a little too much, but in the end, it helped me. She goes over everyone's papers individually which is great. But you definitely want to go to the writing center too
excellent prof. would take her again in a heartbeat!
She is such a nice lady and really cares about her students. I learned more about writing in one semester then I did in my whole high school career. Definitely recommend her!
She is an amazing professor. I enjoyed having her in class and she gave me career direction! I am pursuing anthro as a result of her and traveled overseas after talking with her about study abroad. TAKE HER! You won't be disappointed.
She is an awesome teacher!! You definatly need to take her, if you have a different prof. SWITCH NOW!! Prof. White does everything she can to help you do good in the class and really makes coming to class fun. You definatly will not regret taking her!!
Professor Julie White, is hands down the best professor at GVSU that I have ever had. She reaches out to every student and gets to know them. She loves when you go to class, and you will benefit from the class if you attend. For the semester we wrote 4 papers. I definetly recommend her for WRT 150!
Hard but a great teacher and good resource. Pretty strict but only because she wants you to know the information and do well on her portfolio. She also doesn't have any homework or busy work, just a few readings in the green book and then drafts. she loves drafting.
Sheis by far the best professor that I have ever had at GVSU. I had her last fall and still use what she taught me in her class in my other courses. She is AMAZING not to mention HOT! Take her! She is very understanding too, real easy to talk to.
Writing 150 is a difficult class and Prof. White really pushes you to write not only good but great papers. She is difficult but extremely helpful! She also genuinely cares about her students and their lives and is willing to help them even after they have taken her class. Favorite prof. I've had so far! Take her, shes great!
great professor. she is VERY honest about your papers, but it's all just to help you get a good grade on your portfolio. very caring about her students outside of classroom issues
I honestly didn't like her, but one day she went up to me and said she believed in my writing. She really helps you become a talented writer! Make sure you attend class, because thats what lowered my grade. Boring, but useful.
She is extremely knowledgeable about the topic. I have no doubt that I got in to med school because of her help. She was brutal on my personal statement but clearly she knew what she was talking about so my advice is to listen to her. She pushed me hard and that made all the difference in me getting my applications in on time. She is amazing!
She is an amazing professor. Truly one of my favorite classes to come to each week. She keeps it fun and her writing tools are really helping me in other classes wear I have papers.
She is VERY helpful with papers and very straight forward. She will criticize them, but when she says your paper is good, she means it. She does not assign extra writing exercises, only papers for your portfolio. She works hard to get you the best grade and cares a lot about students. Take her if you get the chance!
She is a great professor. Every paper you have in this class, she will help you through it. She knows what she is talking about and is always willing to help. I highly recommend her.
Professor White was amazing. I found her to be so helpful in bettering my writing skills. She genuinely cares about her students. She is strict about attendance and meeting deadlines on essay drafts. She made it seem nearly impossible to get an A on your portfolio, but I did; I don't think I could have though without her constructive criticism.
She is an amazing professor and hot too! Enjoyed her alot. Got into med school because of her. Take her for any class!
Very energetic teacher and you can tell she loves writing. Tries to prepare you for WRT 150 but overdoes it a bit. She is very demanding with the work load she assigns. Good teacher, just not the perfect one for me.
She loves writing and gets the material across but she is very abrasive and talks A LOT! Not good if you aren't an auditory learner.
She was absolutely my saving grace last year. I don't know what I would have done without her as a teacher. She really taught me how to write and I am using it this year. Excellent teacher. Take her!
Professor White is awesome! She is very passionate about writing and helping her students. She gives great constructive criticism because she wants all of her students to succeed.
Professor White is really wonderful. She really teaches you how to write. I have used her lessons in other classes to help me. Take her!
Professor White is probably the best prof I've ever had. Very passionate about writing and will do anything to help her students succeed. She told my class this past winter semester that she has never failed a single person. My writing has changed drastically thanks to her! Take her class!!
THE BEST TEACHER/FRIEND/COACH. She actually cares about each person and makes sure that everyone does the best that they can. Shes the reason I cared to put in effort. It's a requirement for everyone so I hope you would really try to get this prof.Everyone loves class w/ her.Mandatory attendance & you can get away without reading,but does help to.
Wonderful professor. She made everything very clear as to what she wanted, and what was to be expected from the writing department as well. Prof White was extremely helpful with revising and giving advice on each paper. Very passionate about writing which helped motivate students to do their best. The best professor I've had at GV so far.
I LOVED Julie. She really made it clear she was there to help pass this dreaded class. Her feedback and many fieldtrips to the library are the reason I believe I passed this class. I HIGHLY recommend taking her if you feel you struggle with writing. She really is a HUGE help!
She is extremely helpful and wants you to do very well in the class. Although she is tough when she edits your papers, in the end it is going to help your portfolio grade. She had extended online office hours which was nice if you were working on something at home and had questions. She is great and wants you to receive a good grade!
She is clear on the 3 papers you have to write an always available to help. You don't turn in any assignments that get graded just rough drafts that she makes comments on. Your grade is from 3 papers at the end of class? To get a good grade you need to be willing to write MANY drafts. If you don't miss a day she will plus your grade at the end.
Julie is a great professor and really cares about the success of her students. She will push you to be the best you can be. I would highly recommend her.
Professor White is a very tough professor when it comes to grading. She's not afraid to tell you that your paper is terrible and needs to be redone. She's more than happy to assist you with your paper if you're struggling but you have to ask! I would take her again for another course, and suggest you take her.
A great professor, you can tell she really cares about all of your work and wants to see you succeed in everything you do. Has awesome feedback on all papers written in the class.
I became a better writer because of her. She is known for having higher grades on her portfolios (each class has 3 papers graded at the end of the year by two teachers). She is willing to help and was such help when I went to her office hour once. Although all writing classes are long she lets you out early. Also she is very nice and cares.
Kind of hard to have a writing class asking for 3 papers and another class asking for a research paper.
Very passionate and helpful teacher. Is great on feedback and if you are willing to put in the effort, she is as well. She really prepares you. She is very honest with you on your papers and will do her best to get you to pass.
She always made what she wanted known. Always helpful.
Professor White is the best writing professor. She really helped my writing grow. She puts several hours into her students and will do anything to help you succeed. If you struggle with writing take her, she will make sure you do well.
Julie is the best professor Ive ever had. She is very willing to help you with any of your papers and makes it easy for you to contact her. WRT150 is a tough course but Julie makes it her mission that every student passes! She also has a saying that once your her student your always her student so she offers help with other classes too!
She's super nice, but tough on you - however it's for the best. She wants to get the best writing out of you that she possibly can. I enjoyed Prof White very much.
Julie is hands down one of my favorite profs ever. She is so sweet and very passionate about her subject matter. She gives great feedback and is very helpful when it comes to the work she assigns. She is soososososo helpful and she really made me love writing even more. Just know the class is two hours, and it feels like two hours. Every time.
Professor White was amazing. I felt more confident about my papers after meeting with her for only 10 minutes during class. She makes you work for that A or B so get ready and come to class prepared, but she is the sweetest and hands down AMAZING. Take professor white!! She also wants her students to stay in touch after which is again awesome.
Writing 150 is not an easy class by any means. If you want above a C, definitely take Julie. She will make you work and push yourself but it will be worth it at the end of the semester. An A is very rare in WRT150 but very possible with her!
I enjoyed this professor throughout the course. That is until two days our portfolios were due she said mine was not a passing portfolio. I ended up with a B.... Case Closed.
Best professor I've ever taken. Julie is so kind and fun to be around. She made me love WRT 150, which is amazing. Is she tough? Absolutely. Due dates are final, critiques are harsh, but this is all because she cares about you and your grade. If you want an easy class, don't take her. But if you want better than a C, I can't recommend her enough.
Dr. White was a great teacher. One day a student began to have a full blown panic attack in the middle of her lecture... She was literally freaking out.. Dr. White calmly walked over and helped the girl, then focused back onto lecture within 5 minutes. She's inspirational.
I love Julie! She's truly an amazing professor. She pushes you to be great, even outside of class. She helps whenever you need her, even on the weekends. One of the best Professors at GVSU. Take her if you want to pass WRT150.
Be ready to work, but she cares about her students and helping them improve
Julie really cares and always says "once a student, always a student." Therefore, she can be very motherly and wants to help. However, I found her to be very annoying at times and she was hard to listen to for 2 hours. Gives you more homework than other WRT 150 teachers, too. Thinks writing is the world, so can be a tough grader.
Truly inspirational prof! She is always there to help you with your papers! Take her ONLY if you want to learn and can handle constructive criticism because she makes you work to earn your grade. However, you will not regret it, as she is one of the toughest graders in the writing department but tends to give her students the "upper hand"!
Professor White comes off kind of harsh but it's only because she WANTS you to succeed. I'm not a great writer by any means.. well at least i thought i wasnt.. until she helped me with all of my weak spots. Don't be afraid to ask for help or go to a writing consultant. I thought I was going to struggle with this course but i did fairly well!
Professor White is an amazing teacher. If you're taking WRT150, I highly recommend her! You can tell she cares about every one of her students. Very helpful when it comes to writing your essays for the class. Probably one of the best professors I've had at GV.
WRT 150 is just a horrible class all around, but Julie White was so helpful and made the class a little more bearable. She is seriously available 99.99% of the time and will review your papers as many times as you want. All classes are graded on 3 papers, but julie does give you a 4th option if you don't like one of the main 3. Would take her again
i adored this professor, best i've had at GVSU so far. she cares about all her students, gives excellent feedback for your papers, and has clear goals throughout the semester that are especially helpful for procrastinators like me. i never really enjoyed english/writing classes but by the end of the semester she had me wanting to minor in writing.
Julie will push you to do your absolute best. She really cares about students and has a lot of availability to work with students. I didnt consider myself a good writer but improved SO MUCH after taking her! Shes great! Organized class, sets goals, and helpful lectures.
Professor White is the best. She pushes her students very hard to be their best. You will put a lot of work into this class but it is worth it. She will know everybody by name and give great feedback. She truly cares about her students and will do every thing she possibly can to help you. All you have to do is ask.
One of my least favorite prof's at GV, try not to take if possible. She heavily requires attendance and treats students like they are still in Highschool. Don't take her, she takes a relatively easy class and makes it hard.
Professor White is seriously the best. Unlike other WRT 150 professors, she sets deadlines for when drafts and completed papers are do which helps you stay on track. WRT 150 is a lot of work, no matter what professor you take, so I can't blame the work load on her. She genuinely cares about all of her students and will always be there to help!
She really cares about the grades of students and helps push you to be the best you can be. She has the entire semester outlined in the syllabus which she prints off and gives to you, and is very clear about what is due. She also plays music before class.
SUCH AN AMAZING PROF. She is such a sweet person, and truly cares about each and every person, and their future. Anyone who says they don't like her probably had a sucky portfolio, didn't try, and just are negative people when it comes to upbeat people. TAKE HER! She is one of a kind.
Professor White wasn't terrible. She did give great feedback on papers but the way she ran class and lab was honestly kind of stupid. there was always irrelevant group work and lab that is supposed to be time to work on your paper was taken up but really stupid activities. Just beware if you take her.
Very slow lectures that give you no idea how you're doing in the class until it's too late to change your grade.
Treats students like high schoolers in terms of teaching but grades difficultly
LOVED PROFESSOR WHITE! You may not have tons of time to work on papers in class, but most of the things we learned in class were very valuable into making an A portfolio. She gave great feedback and using that and some things we learned in class, I did well! Definitely take her if writing isnt your strong suit,like me, as she will be a great help!
Professor White was very kind. Theres a lot of rewriting and extra things we had to do with each papers we had to write. First half of the class was always spent talking about things I personally found irrelevant. Gives minimal time to do peer editing which stinks because I found the peer edits to be very affective. Cant miss over 4 days.
Gives good feedback. You really have to read up on the syllabus or you will fall behind on the essays. Professor White is one of the most lenient teachers on campus and she is really dedicated to her students. Just show the effort and drive and shell be willing to help out in anyway she can.
Prof. White was super sweet and gave great feedback; but she treats you like a child, gives no time to work in lab, and assigns pointless ready that takes up unnecessary time.
Great prof at GV. Very helpful and warm. Take her. You won't be disappointed.
LOVE PROFESSOR WHITE. Writing 150 is a hard class in general because you are only graded on 3-4 papers, but Professor White gives you all the necessary tools to be successful in this class. She gives great feedback and is VERY willing to work with you to get you to where you want to be. Everything she teaches you has a purpose. She is THE BEST.
Professor White was my absolute favorite professor. She wasvery willing to help and clearly cares about her students. She also gave us lots of time in lab to work on our paper revisions when she could help us. I tried to get her for creative writing but she doesn't teach that class. By far one of the best profs I have had at GV.
She's great! I would take her again for sure! She's amazing!
LOVED this prof. Take her. You won't be disappointed.
I strongly appreciate White as a prof before entering WRT 150. Since she teaches both classes, she's always open to share advice & help students prepare for 150 without surprises. Her 098 is still not exactly a "blow-off" class because she grades somewhat intensely on essays but all feedback is helpful and you WILL learn how to be a better writer!
Professor White structures her classes in a fashion which equally disperses student workload across the semester, which helps a lot when finals week approaches. In general, Professor white offers many opportunities in and out of class from herself and writing consultants to help with writing papers for the class, and just writing in general.
Professor White is great. She could make you feel like you're not a good writer, but don't give up. Keep working on your papers with the writing consultants and ask Professor White to read it. She does give good feedback for the final portfolio. Overall, you have to work super hard for this class to receive an A.
she is very helpful and kind. she will make sure you pass your portfolio grade
The nicest professor at GVSU, no doubt. She is a great professor and person, she really cares about all of her students and wants you to feel comfortable. Unfortunately, the portfolio will make or break your final grade, do NOT underestimate it (no matter which WRT150 prof you have).
I would never take her class again. Lowkey being mean towards me because I'm able to speak multiple languages and she says something about I should see writing consultant because of my background?! I'm not sure what exactly is she trying to say but it wasn't nice.
She's very nice and cares about students success. Gives good feedback on papers and doesn't over work you with assignments.
I really like professor White. She is very nice and cares about her students. The papers can be a lot to write and revise multiple times, but she makes it very manageable! The activities online are fairly easy and quick. She gives great feedback and wants to see you succeed. The grading criteria is very clear and straightforward
She was an amazing teacher, there were 3 papers due the whole class and some weekly assignments each week. She was a very flexible grader and gave good feedback for every assignment. Be ready to show up because attendance and participation is a part of the final grade. Overall she was a super easy going teacher who cared for her students,easy class
Work load was a little heavy but her homework activities are pretty easy. As long as you participate and do the homework you can easily keep a 100% until turning the portfolio in. Great professor, she pushes you to do your best and genuinely really cares about your success. Very accessible, nice, and extremely supportive to all her students.
Prof. White is an amazing person. She truly cares about her students success and wants them to push themselves to be better. Gives great feedback on essays. It's a little tedious revising papers a lot but it does actually help in the end. Usually gave about 4 short assignments a week and worked on the 3 portfolio papers throughout the class.
Professor White is very friendly and you can tell that she cares about her students. Her assignments were very clear for the most part. However, when I did email her about a question, most of the time she would not respond.
Professor White cares about student success. The workload is manageable with her helpful feedback. Consider using unstuckstudy alongside other study tools like ChatGPT to streamline your prep - it's been a game-changer for many students.
Overall loved Professor White. She was straight to the point, but also explained things just enough to where she was not wasting our time.
Amazing professor. A lot of writing but benefits you and it helps you in your writing skills. Very compassionate and digs deeper than just the course but about staying healthy, taking good care of yourself, and about the mind body connection. She is on top of grading and she sends check in emails a lot throughout the semester.
This is a writing course so you will be writing papers, however the papers are very straight forward and she gives good feedback to improve them.
Amazing!! SO caring, theres just 3 papers about 1500 each. Straight forward, take online. Remember though, she does not give out the A without furthering your papers and revising.
Very nice and if you tell here you want an A you will be pushed not given it
Her instructions were very straight forward and easy to understand. Has a few short assignments every week along with 4 main papers. Is quick at giving good/useful feedback. Genuinely cares about her students success and encourages practicing self care wherever you can. I hate writing but I would take her class again solid 8.5/10.
