Dr. Rose cares for her students alot. She gives out homework, but nothing you can't handle. She gives out quizzes about the topics we discuss, but nothing too major. She lets you choose your topic for the essays and she gives out the prompt in advance to work on it. When students are struggling, she will not let them keep struggling. Best prof!

I took 3 English classes in one semester and her was my fave. She is clear on her expectations & encourages you to ask questions. Extremely genuine woman who loves what she does. Her class is more fun when more people participate in discussions so don't be shy; there is no wrong answer in her class. She chooses great readings so it's never boring.
