Mary is a great professor, and I would go as far as to call her my friend. She is fun and helpful, although some aspects of the class were difficult. The quizzes are all content-based, and pretty hard, but she gives opportunities for EC.

She is one of the coolest teacher ever............

Very nice, funny, cool teacher! Lives up to date!! Class is easy if you do the work and follow directions..

She is really picky, but nice, good teacher, not an easy A, if your up for a chanellenge take her! :)

Mary is very particular with her grading. Also, we do almost the same thing in class every day: take a quiz on the short story, break into small groups and discuss, and then have a class discussion. Mary is a good prefessor, and you can get an A in this class by doing all the assignments and asking her questions. She is funny and very personable.

She really want's you to learn and be good at what you do! Hard work pays off and you'll easily be able to earn and A if you put time into it! Very humorous and the most helpful professor that I know!

She is very clear about what che wants. Very nice teacher and not hard to understand her. Easy A as she gives you 2 oppertunities to do every paper except the last one. I liked her and thought she taught well.

Took online class. You'll have to know how to write well to begin with to get an easy A, otherwise, you'll learn now! I didn't feel like I was taught anything before reading her grades on my papers. If I already knew how to write well, I wouldn't have learned anything. She was very helpful, willing to meet, and answered emails and posts quickly.

I took this class online. There was a lot of work. It took me the first assignment to realize how she wanted things done. She is very clear in what she wants. There is no making up missed assignments. For every paper you get to submit a rough, final, and revised draft. She grades the final. You can either keep that grade, or make corrections to bet

I had Mary for a summer class. She is very helpful and friendly. Quick to return your messages and is very clear on what she wants in her assignments. I would take her for a class again.

Yes she can be tuff BUT she is awesome!!! We go to college to LEARN right...that is what she wants you to do. College is not about just passing, you are taking classes for your career. Everything you learn with her will help with future classes. She will go out of her way to meet you for extra help. She makes the class fun! I HIGHLY recommend her!!

After the course was done, I realize how professional Mary was. We may complain about her, but what she does is just to instruct us and guide into the right path. She is an instructor that pushes you to learn, not just to seat on your butt occupying a seat. We goto college to learn from our instructors. The tougher the better.

If u are coming 2 Mary for an easy A , u better buckle up. She's lively and knows how to keep her students busy and working. Never come late or dare miss her class.Extremely picky n strick.I had 89.79%. She never gave me an A. I dont mind about that.I care about the quality of her class. I'm taking ENGL 1121 next sem with her. Just go 4 her folks.

took this class online. She was very helpful and willing to meet with students to do all she could to help. Her assignments are clear, but she is a tough grader, if you try hard in this class, and communicate with her, and take all opportunities to get a better grade you will succeed.

Mrs. B is by far my favorite professor from ARCC! No, she is not the easiest grader... But college is a place to learn, not a place to boost your self-esteem. It is not impossible to get a good grade if you're willing to work. She was always very willing to help students. Also, she made the class fun!

She is very HELPFUL. Most of her assigments were very clear and understandable execpt for the reseach paper she didnâ??t give enough time to finish it, more than half of the classrom was gone the day it was due. If you come a minute late to class she won't let you take the quiz and there is no making up missed assignments.

best teacher by far, she mad class so much fun and i enjoyed her jokes! Shes very helpful and fun to have. Just do the work and what she says and then boom easy A.

I've taken Mary for two english classes so far and enjoyed both classes. She is a hard grader on the essays, but its well worth it. I learned a lot from both classes and she was always really helpful when needed.

I really enjoyed this class. I learned so much. She is very consistent with what she is looking for when she grades. I plan on taking more of her classes.

Mary is a GREAT teacher! YES, she is picky, but she tells you EXACTLY what she expects before hand. She is ALWAYS willing to help and you get to hand in a revised draft of all the papers after she grades it the first time around. Yes, she jokes around and is sarcastic, but class time flies by and you want to be her friend by the end of the class

she is clear on what she expects from you. confusing at times

She is a good teacher, very picky when grading but says exactly what she is expecting. She's a tough grader but gives good feedback if you ask for it. She gave reading quizzes which I didn't car for, the questions were a bit specific, reading is sort of random, and I'm still wondering why I had to know that the wedding was held in Pakastan (quiz Q)

It was a really fun class sometimes. you need to show up or you wont pass. tough grader. must do the reading in order to pass

Mary is a great professor. The only people that complain about her are the ones that don't show up to class, don't read, and start their papers the week they are due. You do have to put a lot of effort into the class, but you will also get a lot out of it. She tries hard to make you a better student and is very helpful when you ask.

Reading is required for this class so expect to read a lot, along with writing papers. For papers, she will fully grade your second draft. you can either take that grade or improve the paper with the rubric she gives you. This is extremely helpful.

She grades tough, but she is more than willing to help if needed and she gives clear feedback.

She is a great teacher. You have to read but it's not a lot. She grades hard on papers, but if pay attention to what she says you will do good!

Easiest English class I have ever taken. She gives clear expectations, She responds quickly to emails and has good office hours. She is super funny and entertaining. Genuinely wants to see you succeed.

I LOVED Mary!!! She was super hilarious and made class fun and easy to follow! Her grading makes sense and she graded my papers very well. Obviously if you arent good at writing papers, you wont do well regardless. But she taught very well and very easy to understand. Would take again!

Mary is a phenomenal teacher! She made the class fun and interesting and helped me improve my writing. Make sure to leave your phone in your bag! Weekly reading quizzes but they are easy if you actually read the articles. You also get a third draft on all the big papers, I think there were 3. Only get a few absences and she takes them seriously!

Mary's class was awesome. I learned a lot from her and she was very helpful when we had to switch to online learning with all of the COVID-19 stuff going on. If you take the time to reach out to her she will make it her priority to help you!! She is a fantastic professor.

10/10! Mary is organized and controls online utilities wonderfully. She helps students so that they don't miss due dates or assignments. She is a tough grader but I truly appreciate this because it has allowed me to significantly enhance my writing skills. There are weekly quizzes, readings, and papers, so this course requires a lot of time!

she was the best professor/teacher i have ever had. I'm pretty bad at papers and she was so much help for every step of the process for the 3 papers that made up the majority of your grade in this class. she also gave amazing feedback and allowed and encouraged 2nd and 3rd drafts on papers. I wish I could have her for every class

Definitely a thorough grader. Taking online was nice. No lectures, no textbooks. Weekly read through of a few short stories, discussion board, quiz and some weeks a reflection paper. A couple big essays. Gives lots of great writing and citing resources. GREAT written feedback on everything. Class was extremely organized and consistent each week.

If you want to do well in her class, give feedback!! Ask questions in or outside of class time. She will respond quickly, even on weekends. She gives good feedback and wants you to succeed. Mary also offers 3rd drafts that help improve your grade. There are 2-4 short readings a week and weekly quizzes. Overall I enjoyed her class!

Ok course! Professor is a very strict grader, but as long as you read the rubric and follow it closely you'll be ok. Deadlines are also very strict, she is not very lenient but she does post all resources so you can always work ahead. She is a polite person though and helpful individually so don't be afraid to ask questions. Workload was average.

Mary is a personality for sure, and her grading is very strict, but the feedback and time that she gives on papers and assignments will guarantee a passing grade, in my opinion.

This class has a big work load but I highly recommend you work with her 1:1 before submitting papers. She will give you clear feedback and help you develop your paper to her standards. She is a very nice person and teacher.

Second class I've had with her and still enjoyed it! It was online asynch., and every week we had one kid's book to read, a quiz, and a discussion post (1 OG and 3 responses). Grading can be a bit harsh, so following her criteria is key! Two papers, each worth 25% of your total grade. She's willing to give feedback on papers before the due date!

While Prof. Bodelson is a tough grader, she sets very clear expectations and is willing to meet with students during her office hours to go over areas you can improve. Each week was some reading, a discussion post & responses, and a quiz. There are three practice papers and three essays. She gives great feedback and allows for revisions!

This was the first class I've taken with Bodelson, and I loved it! We had a discussion post every week, a weekly reading quiz, and only a few papers that she gives plenty of time for. She gives a lot of great advice in-class on assignments and is clear/strict on grading but offers third drafts on essays. Already taking another class with her!

Is great, super nice and easy going
