She thinks that her class is the only one you are taking. Class is easy but she assigns bucket loads of work like readings, papers, worksheets. She expects you to read 7 passages during the 4 day weekend and write papers for all as well as an individual response. SHE THINKS YOU ARE TAKING NO OTHER CLASS literally.

She is unclear on what she wants. You can ask her on what she wants for her papers she will confuse you even more by just contradicting herself. I love English but she made me hate it.

I took her my first semester. She is very understanding, so if you were to have any problems, just talk to her. When I started working, she understood when I had to leave early. She gives you the chance to write blogs. DO THEM. It's easy to get an A in her class, just do the work. She gives you chances to pass, though.

She's an easy professor to take. She's very understanding and sooo helpful! Her work isn't hard at all. 6 absences is the amount she lets you have throughout the semester which i thought was cool because other professors only let you have about 3! She wants her students to get an A so she helps you bring up your grade in any way possible!

Mrs. Hebbard was a very sweet and generous professor. She is always willing to help her students and her homework assignments are extremely easy. She has no final exam, all she ask is just a portfolio of all your work. You also dont need a textbook. I would definitely recommend this professor if its your first time taking rhetoric and composition.

She's a great lecturer. I'm a horrible writer and she made me feel comfortable with what I produced. I'm definitely a better writer now. Also she gives really clear criteria on what she wants in her essays, if you ask, she'll help. She has a very non judgmental vibe. And the reading can be dull, but it's very easy. Very easy A.

She's the best professor in utrgv, there are 3 main assignments throughout the semester. Make sure to save your work for the end for your portfolio, which counts for your exit of the course. Lots of homework but they are understandable and she will go beyond her lecture to make sure you understand what she is teaching. Accepts late work.
