I was seriously disappointed with her communication and lack of direction. I followed her instruction to the 't' and would still suffer for her inability to be accurate in her description of the assignments. I turned in the same exact paper into her I did at a more prestigious school. B with them, C with her even AFTER correcting the first paper.

I had taken this class online over the summer and it was terrible. The layout of her blackboard was awful. There were never any clear directions for the essays. I received an F on my very first paper. It felt like she forgot about the online class because there were assignments still up that were for the in-class lecture which made it confusing.

This class is crystal clear. As a military person I appreciate all the structure. She also knows everything about Columbus State and was much more help than any adviser. Very good.

She is awesome. Just listen to what she tells you to correct, this is the second class i have taken with her. I waited until this semester to take her Comp II class i loved her in Comp I. Your essays are based on a topic you want to do as long as she approves it and you work on it the entire semester. Again LISTEN TO HER FEEDBACK!!!

I did not learn any new skills or new information in her class. The class is basically only 3 big papers with little actual direction on what she wants. This professor is not afraid to give you verbal feedback in front of the class (good or bad). I felt that she was consistently condescending. Be prepared to wing it.

Miss Lisa is so clear. Every part of every essay has directions. She does not try to trick you just help you. Read all the material and watch all the videos and the class work makes sense. She really makes you feel like she cares too.

The compII class is VERY straight forward. Her directions are specific and clear. But you have to follow them. If you want to do your own thing rather than follow directions, don't take her class. If you can read and then follow directions and do what you read, you are good.

I am sure that Mrs. Gordon did not agree with me and the ideas I had in my paper.I still got an A because I followed the directions and used good sources. She did not let the difference in our opinons decide how to give me a grade.I like the integrity.I like the straight forward attitude. Follow her specific directions and use good sources for an A

The only thing that would have improved this class is if Ms. Gordon responded to emails in a more timely fashion. Other than that, she gives very clear directions on assignments & if you follow them, you'll do great. Homework is clearly laid out at the beginning of the course & she is overall a great teacher! You can tell she loves what she does.

Do everything exactly as she wants, and it's an easy A. Miss one direction, and it's an automatic F. There is no inbetween in her class. The essays are written out for you like a game of mad libs, you just fill out whats relevant to what you're "writing" about. Her blackboard still has stuff from previous classes and it's easy to be confused!

The directions for this class are SO GOOD. When we had group work I could tell people were not watching video lectures and the writing from them was so bad. The videos help, people, As in they totally write the essay for you. If you are one of those people who don't want to try, you will not do well. You can't fake it and BS in this class.

Professor Gordan really cared about me learning the material. She talks about reallife things and taught me how to educate myself and check facts. I learned about laws and things that I need to care and know about for my future. Thank you, professor.

Professor Gordon' class was an absolute nightmare for me in the beginning. However, once I sat down and explain to her that I was having trouble understanding with just an online class, she switched me to in person. when I was strictly online I was failing. When I moved to in-person I ultimately got a B in the class. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS ONLINE.

There are four big papers. She tells you exactly how to do them.She almost does it for you and honestly will find all your research if you ask her to. She has very interesting stories that keep me awake in class.We talk and get to know other students in this class very social.

Online class is incredibly disorganized and confusing. We hardly learned anything, just followed step by step instructions on four separate essays. Very much a pass fail class with no room for mistakes and not much interesting to do or learn.

I'm expanding on my review earlier this semester. This professor is able to be talked to about turning in late assignments, though I feel doesn't elaborate enough on what we need to fix when she says to do redo our writing. I do feel like the class starting like taking the late option of this english class should be avoided.
