She is excellent. As a international student, i am proud of her and taking her class. She has all the best qualities that u want to find in a teacher.
I would take her class again and again. She is superb!
Mariam is a friendly person. But when it comes to professional, I think she still need to improve. Even though she is an instructor for English, as a non-native speaker, her English was often ambiguous and she made mistakes about English, which gave us hard time to learn English in many ways. If I had a chance, I would reconsider my choice.
i took class with Mariamm this past semester. It was a life changining experince for me. She helped me improve my English so much. Everything she did in the class was clear. Overall, she is all a professor needs to have. All my classmates seemed very happy during her class. She kept the environment of the class everyone was engaged and learning.
Choose someone else. If you take ENGL111, this is a course related American culture, so you definitely dont want a teacher who has bad pronunciation and poor knowledge (kind of stereotype) of culture. Also, bad planning for each class, her course schedule is useless.
I took two class with her because she is really helped improving my English. I was too shy and bear could write or speak English. She gave me lots of resources and taught me how to be a responsible student. I wish her all the best. For being so young, she is the best teacher I ever had.
She is simply great ! I took both classes with her because she is the best. My writing and English improved a lot. She encouraged me to participate and become confident in my abilites. Now I don't shy away to raise my hand and answer questions. It's all because of her.
She is the one teacher who really care about all students in the class. Her feedback on my journals are amazing. My writing has improved a lot. she is my role model.
She is wonderful. She is the one who never stops helping students. I love her petsonality and hard work.
Do not choose her. Ever.
She is so tough of giving the points, and always repeats the same words on the class. I will not choose her class never ever. The lecture are also boring. On the presentation, she even disrupting our presentation, which is irrespective.
She is highly knowledgable about what she teaches us. She makes sure that we all are all included and participate. She makes lazy student work. She pays attention to quality . She is simply amazing <3
She is the best! She expects everyone to participate and those lazy students who don't work hard may not like it. She teaches u life skills and makes u work hard. This is my second semester with her aND chose her class becase I see a lot of changes in my language skills and I would chose her class again and again.
She is da best. She is such a caring , respectfull , knowledgeable personality. I learnt a lot from her class. I became more responsible, confident with my English . I can manage my time better. Thanks for teaching us all these.I never enjoyed learning englush, but now I do.
Miriam is very honest hard working and dedicated professor. She cares for everyone and I will take her class again. I wish she teaches again the writing classes that I am required to take coz her feedback to my journals has helped me improve my writing skills so much.
I can't think of a better instructor than Mariiam. She is dedicated , hard working and accessible all the time. When I need anythung, I email her and she reply in less than 2 mintues. She makes the class very welcoming for everyone and her method of teaching is very useful and clear. I recommend all international students to take classes with her.
She is the one teacher who cares for every y single student in the class. She knowledgable, trustworthy. Coz if her my English improved and my academic skills have improved too. I wish she keeps teaching the writing classes since I need to take some classes . I would take her classes as much as I can.
She is wonderful. She helped improved my writing. Now I can help my friends with writing back home. She is the young cheerful energetic teacher I ever had.

She helped me improve my English and my English writing. She gives great detailed feedback on projects and journals which are really useful. I will take class with her again.
She wants to make sure that every student participates and remain active in the class. She gives excellent feedback and makes the environment of the class very friendly and enjoyable. I lost my interest in learning languages when I was in China, but now the class that I enjoy the most is my English 111 coz of the teacher.
We had lots of homework through which we had to practice English on daily basis and that helped me improve my English so much. Practice indeed makes things perfect. She is amazing ! I suggest international students to take classes with her. She us very caring, kind and honest.
She is the most caring hard working teacher. In her class, we learn so much and feel so comfy. I like her personality and professionalisim. I wish I took English 111 too. Her classes were full and waited a lot to see anyone drop but it didn't happen. Enjoy bring in her class.

I am taking next semester another class with her as she us amazing and exceptional. Very supportive, helpful, resourceful makes sure to help u no matter if its week days weekend, goes above and beyond . Everything one can look for a professor u can find in her
She asks so much for this class that should be an easy A not very penalizing for grades but still busy work.
What a great experience. I felt comfortable talking in the class n my English n cultural improved so much. Some of my international classmates want to get A without doing the assignment. She is honest fair hard work.She is a role model for me .
Amazing amazing class, i never feel safe in other classes to talk and participate, but in this class I made so many friends. Great materials, great feedback, great lesson.

She is the best, best class, best experience. Lots of practice of language and culture activities. Very welcoming, respectful , engaging environment She is my role model and i want to be like her one day.
One day, I want to be like her. She is an example of a great n exeptional personality, professionalisim, and hard work that any teacher should have. I made it my goal to be like her in the future.
worst instructor ever. She does not even know how to show respect. Repeatedly interrupt students during presentation or speech simply because she wants to "educate us". Taking her class is the worst decision I've ever made.
ENGL110 should be focused on American culture while she forces us to do endless research and projects about her own country Afghanistan. She is so hilarious. JUST DO NOT TAKE ANY OF HER COURSES.
She doesn't know anything about American culture, but she tries to teach her students by pretending to be American. Very poor English pronunciation. She liked to control her students and forced them to take part in activities she organized outside the classroom which is waste time..
Most people in her class are very bored and sleepy. The grading standards are very vague and I have no idea how to get a good grade. Look at the comments below and you can see it was written by this professor obviously. Because she always thinks international student is lazy
I was cool with her at first, but she reported my comments... So I have to be honest, and I would suggest that if you don't like someone, you should recommend them to take the professor's class.
She likes to brag about her little success in Afghanistan or her family's good conditions. Listening to her class only makes me feel funny and hypocritical
I chose this course because I was confused by the favorable comments. This is undoubtedly the professor I regret the most. RUN
Report student comments and then comment to herself on the same day in her own tone. You can see how hypocritical the teacher really is
Originally, it was A very simple class, but it was difficult to get an A under the teacher's curriculum. She also likes to blame students for being lazy when it's actually her own grading.
There is no help for group projects, and all task steps are very vague and need to be explored by oneself. And she always finds fault even though we all think it's perfect. She showed no respect for her students at all.
The class was excellent class, friendly and welcoming atmosphere lots of useful resources, fun and engaging , great clear methods of teaching.
Amazing class , amazing group, great professor, welcoming kind caring answers emails in few minutes and answered all question. I would take class again and again. I made so many good friends in this class.
Everything about the class was excellent and wonderful personality. So many indept discussions n learning. I love her and her class
Great class. Made so many friends , a place that I felt safe to share my thoughts and how my day went . Great teacher great personality . I would take class again. I used to take English 106.
Very nice person, but the academic writing short course was not as helpful as expected. Was online but very slow pace, spent over 20 min each class waiting for students to read materials and waiting for someone to break the silence. Plus spent a lot of time watching videos from youtube...
One of the funniest things is that she's continuously faking good comments about herself. She knows how terrible her teaching and her racism toward international students are. But she insists on pretending that she's just a female student who admires herself as an awesome instructor. JUST DO NOT TAKE ANY OF HER CLASSES.
She clearly knows how much people dislike her and how self-righteous she is. I hope whoever views this page can go back to her comments and compare all the comments. Stop faking good comments. Alamyar, we are so disgusted by your dishonesty.
Her accent was so terrible that I could hardly understand any of her words. The worst lectures. She's been so mean and did not respect any of the students. She's the worst instructor ever. Find someone else if you don't want to get shamed in her class.
SHE'S THE WORST.
she's so terrible......
Just can not understand why she insists on pretending as a student to give FAKE good comments about herself. Is she really able to ignore the fact that she is a horrible instructor that every student hates? No one would be willing to take any of her courses again.
this class was very used full and excellent and I learned a lot of things about writing, I was able to finish my research paper with the help of this amazing teacher.
it was a very friendly class and the teacher was very respected, I have learned a lot of things in this class and overall it was a great experience and I recommend this class to other students too.
It was wonderful class. With the support if her, I finished my thesis. I was stuck for months completing this project. Every individual sessions helped me get closer to my goals. Big respect for her hard work.
Best teacher ever
Great teacher

The best teacher

When you see the polarized ratings, you know someone is forging the comments. I will just say this.
