She is a hard teacher but is very helpful. Take her class to learn.

Gives 3x more work (essay/journals) then other english teachers. Nice and helpful with how to write a paper, but overload of work on top of all your other classes is not the way to go. If you love typing papers, go for it.

Eng 1A and 1000X really helpful!!! but i spend the whole weekend starting every friday to think about the journals she want us to write topic proposals but she gives extentions if you really needs it 4 journals 4 essays and 1 research paper thank you!

Very good teacher. Extremely helpful. Young and fun.

awsome teacher, helps you in every way possible...always interested in what you have to say, but does give a lot of work...but as long as you do the work, pay attention, and be involved...you'll be fine....

She's pretty alright for a professor in comparison to others. She has a really high tolerance rate; or rather, she doesn't allow it to bother her. She cares, but she's not responsible for whether you do her work or not since it's your grade and your decision.

great teacher Ihave learned alot from her this year. its like there is a computer in her head.

Dope Professor. Probably one of the nicest professors you will ever meet at PCC. As for the class, she is a fair grader. She will help you whenever you need it. It's an English class so expect to write a lot. If you're looking for an easy A, don't take this class. If you want a challenge, then take her.

wonderful professor & by the far the most enlightening. if you want an easy A, don't take this class because she gives a large amount of work. if you really want to learn though, take her class and you'll be prepared for the next level of english. she's extremely helpful during her office hours so get some advice on how to better papers.

This was one of the most intense classes I've had at PCC. i spent many late nights on her assignments. do NOT take if you are a slacker or do not have much extra time. There is a huge amount of work, but she is very available for help. it was a struggle to get through this class but i learned a ton about writing that i will use forever!

She was a very good teacher. In group she does alot of interupting you mid sentence but she cool. Don't take if you think you are looking for an easy A because you definately wont get one here!!! Be prepared for long Home work night and weekends. Lots of typing.

She seems really nicee she doesn't really care if you do the work or not she lets you know you are adult the choice is yours don't take if you are looking for an easy class lot of papers and lots reading!! Long nights and weekends!

Ok first off she is great! Sometimes she can be kinda hard but if you pay attention in class you'll understand. Prof. Smith does give homework but its easy until you do the essays. I recommend you do your homeowrk its helpful. I took her and honestly i suck in English but i passed!

Ms. Smith is a fair teacher. She is always willing to help you through assignments, and is flexible with due dates for essays if the whole class says they need more time. However, she does give out a LOT of homework and Essays. If your looking for an easy class, this is not the one for you. She can also be a little unclear with some instructions.

loved class.. but you have to work hard for your grade.i got a B! Shes a tough grader but in the end you will learn!take if your horrible in english she helped me alot!

Very cool prof! She's willing to work with you as long as you show that you're willing to give it your best. Must come to class having read literature she assigned. Quizzes start at the beginning of class time, so if you're late, you lose those points. Loves to do group activities. Got an A in her class. I highly recommend you take her!

she a good teacher you just gotta put the effort and listen to what she wants and you'll get a good grade.

She definitely knows what she's doing. It may not be easy but she is fair. Not reccommended if you are lazy or a procrastinator.

I was pretty scared coming into this class from all the other ratings, but prof smith is the best english teacher i've ever had. You just need to put an effort and you will for sure get an A. She is a hard grader, but if you show that you are trying she will help you out. She is very fair and you are going to learn without a doubt!

I have always hated English and have been good at it, but Professor Smith is a great motivator. Every project in her class with tied to a continuous theme which made it easy to follow and get into. She is incredibly smart and can tell the difference between a lazy person and a hard worker. Work hard and her class will be a great experience!

she is excellent but hard. Very willing to help, will go out of her way to meet with you and walk you thru an assignment if you need it. But don't try to put anything by her--she seen it all and not pashent with slackers. But great--I will take her again!

She was a hard professor, but she was worth it. She made sure you were ready for the next level and even took a lesson to teach us old things. She would help you if you asked for it. If you tried to pull anything over her she would know. She was funny at times. Make sure not to miss class and to contact her if you do.

She was a hard teacher and expected a lot from everyone. She wasn't bad. You always have to be there to get what's going on. She will help you if you ask for it or if she thinks you are struggling a lot. Make sure your phone is off!

Professor Smith is really a great human being. Only take her if you really want o learn how to write though. She is a hard grader and a very good analyzer of text and material. Extremely good speaker, she is really great. Recommended

Shes hard but I like the way she teaches. You constantly have to keep up with her work. If you are lazy and leave everything last minute do not take her class. Make sure you do all the homework she gives you because it helps you practice and get the material. She really does help you understand more and only lazy people complain about her.

She gives a lot of assignments, but the feedback she gives guides you in the right direction. Her teaching methods made me feel more prepared to take on eng 1A. I've had a difficult time in the class and had a D the first half of the semester, but after applying her feedback and going to her office for help my grade boosted up to an A.

What I liked about profesor Smith is that she gives you feedback to rewrite your essays better and this class is easy as long as you do your work. Professor Smith liked working smart not hard. I would retake this class if I could

Professor Smith is a very educated teacher who has full knowledge in English. Professor Smith English 1B class is a college level that will get you ready to transfer. She is a hard grader when it comes to essays and her exams and journals are based on written essays. Make sure to proof read and polish your essay before turning them in.

Wrost Proffessor i ever had she doesnt explain the assignment clearly so it easy to get confused sometimes

If you want to actually improve your writing and prepare yourself to transfer to a top school, take Prof Smith. If you are just trying to scoot by and don't care, then skip it. I am now at UCLA and I give much of the credit to my success from the English 1A class I took. She is a passionate & challenging teacher. Use her as a resource and grow!!!

Her class is challenging and the amount of assignments is very overwhelming. I don't like that often she doesn't assign a couple of days in advance, but for the next day. However, she's always ready to help. She's also very understanding and assigns a couple of extra credit work so you can improve your grade. Be ready to read and write a lot.

Professor Smith is really kind. Beware that participation matters, she might mark you absent if you don't participate. Attendance matters because she will only let 4 unexcused absences slide. Just make sure you attend class, finish your homework before the deadline, always annotate the readings, and you'll be fine.

Predictable assignment schedule - discussion posts, long-ish free responses. You'll definitely be challenged, so participate as much as possible during lecture and listen to the ideas of your peers. In-person midterm essay and optional final. Keep an open-mind learning from her - she's super nice and accessible during office hours for feedback!

Class is not easy. Tough.. English isn't my first language and I am a computer science major. I was able to get an A on her class and I think anyone can get an A if they put in the work. The magic is her office hours. She gives good insights and different ways to tackle the essay. This class truly improves your critical thinking.

Professor can be a tough grader but visiting her office hours is extremely useful and can be what bumps your grade up a letter. She isn't a tough grader for the sake of it but she pushes you to write original, academic papers. She will genuinely make you improve as a writer if you are willing to put in the work.

Professor Smith's class is pretty tough for me, but that's my problem I ain't good enough for this level yet. But still, I did improve and learned a lot of stuff from her. She's the most professional english professor I've ever taken. I can feel she does care about us. She's good.
