Took her in Fall 2004... never had a cooler teacher. Always willing to help after class, knows her stuff and treats you like a human being. highly recommend but be ready to work hard
She is probably the best teacher I have ever had period. Extremely helpful with papers and making up missed work. You have got to work hard but she is always available to assist you.
GREAT teacher. She expects a lot but she gives a lot. She has a way of making even the dry stuff not too bad. Highly recommended.
This class was super duper easy! I made an A on all of my papers! She is very nice and understanding. She is also very very very helpful!!!! Her grading is not strict at all, but strict enough so that if you make a mistake she corrects you without being so critical about it. You will not leave her class with any misunderstandings on how to write a paper.
She was very understanding when I had a rough spot in my life.
Mrs. Lang is a great teacher who knows a lot about English and makes sure you understand it too. I highly recomend her class. I havn't made A's on all my papers but I can honestly say I didn't try to.
She is always willing to help.
Follow your reviews and ask questions. She is very understanding, and has minimal homework. The papers can be annoying but nothing you couldnt knock out in a few hours time.
mrs. lang is a great teacher and so helpful, she will answer any question, stay after to help you along with papers if your stuck or just want to double-check things. i highly recommend her and will try to take her for 102.
She is the best English teacher I have ever had. She really enjoys her job, which makes the class easier. Plus, she is willing to hook-up with you whenever you need help with a paper. She doesn't grade hard, but isn't favorable of students who don't come to class.
I had Mrs. Lang for English 1, and she was great. She was always willing to help you after class...and she DOES return your emails! I made As on all of my papers and she is a really good teacher, just make sure you attend class and bring 2 copies of your draft...

great teacher! always willing to help with anything... shes strict but in a good way though. i wouldnt mind taking her again for lit.
if you go to class and speak up, she is cool. if you do not go to class or turn your work in, she's not...duh! i am trying to get her in the fall cause she's the best at not making you feel stupid
extremely helpful, she is willing to listen to you and lend a helping hand, she makes class very interesting and is very positive towards her students.
The best English/Literature teacher EVER !!!! Def. take her !!!!
Lots of assignments, they were generally easy though.
She was a really great teacher. She gave a lot of tests, but they were easy.
Very straight-forward teacher. She hands you everything you need. I reccomend her to anyone who has trouble with English. She assigns short reader response assignments which are the test questions almost word for word. She also gives study guides for all her tests.
Very clear instructions, will proofread papers before turn in so you get an A. You must attend every class to understand not hard but not easy.
Mrs. Lang is an EXCELLENT teacher! She is always there for you when you need help. She's very liberal with her grading and is always willing to work with you on everything! You're lucky if ou can get her!
She is a really helpful teacher. We had many things to do during the semester, but her grading is really easy. You can get "A" if you follow her directions and do assignment! That's all!!!
She is awesome. Will return email questions even on Sunday. explains everything thouroughly. Tests are all short answer and essay but you know whats onthe test. Great class.
She is a great teacher! Easy to understand and very energetic!! if all teachers were like her life would be a breeze! I enjoyed her class. It was not super stressful but did involve much writing...but hey its english class...what do you expect?
Mrs. Lang is great! She's very enthusiastic and makes the class interesting by doing several different things.
I loved this teacher! She is really clear and explains everything, and is really passionate about the subject. She makes you want to learn.
Does a marvelous job of teaching this subject. You can get away with not reading EVERYTHING in this class if you show up everyday to class and take notes and just listen to what Lang has to say.
The best English/Literature teacher EVER !!!! Def. take her !!!!
She is a easy and wonderful teacher. I would recommend her to anybody.
i think mrs land is a awsome, she will put her whole energy to the subject, if ur not taking her thAT means ur FOOL!
Mrs. Lang is FABULOUS!!! You have to come to class...but if you do, she'll tell you exactly what she wants from a paper paragraph by paragraph. I've never had a teacher who offered so much help and made the class interesting
She is great. Helps you to understand even though you dont like lit class.
She is a fantastic teacher! Very helpful and willing to explain things in detail...not a typical college professor, fairly laid back, but you need to attend class, and do the homework. Participate in class and you will be in with her. Take her if you can! You won't regret it!
she is a really good teacher who is really layed back
She is an awesome teacher! I hated the thought of having to write papers and she made it easy and interesting! I got an A in her class. You need to attend class on a regular basis though and pay attention. She is very understanding and helps you in any way she can. We had one vocabulary test and 4 papers due, thats it. Take her,you won't regret it!
Mrs. Lang is a great teacher and very helpful. You have to come to class and if you miss too many times it will affect your grade. I passed with an A. It is alot of work, but if you do all of the work then you will be pleased with your grade at the end.
Mrs. Lang was amazing. I got an A in my first college English class with her. She makes everything understandable and is very sweet! I would DEFINITELY recommend her. She even said to my class "Look, if youre having trouble, email me! see me after class! ill take you for coffee and well go over your paper... i just need you to come to me." Amazing.
Great class to take as a freshman!! Is willing to help made an A in the class.
awesome teacher! helps you understand things clearly. willing to help one on one...must attend class and use test daily. in english 101 i had a C w/different prof...i aced this class
She is the sweetest teacher ever and is very understanding if you have problems understanding the material. She is very clear on what she wants and does assign homework. She gives you study guides for the exams but they are exactly what the test will be. The tests are pretty difficult (mostly essay and short answer) but the class is fun if you read
She was really helpful, I'm a International Student and she made it so easy for me! Take her, she's probably the best teacher in the department, you'll love her :)
By far the BEST teacher I have had at South. She is very understanding and helpful. :)
By far the BEST teacher I have had at South. She is very understanding and helpful.I highly rcommend anyone to take her class. There is probably no other teacher like her in this department!
Horrible. She pretty much hates me, even though I haven't said anything to offend her at all. In fact I haven't said anything to her this whole semester because the first day she was a jerk to me. I've worked my butt off this semester and haven't gotten a single good grade. My last to grades were 50% and I met and exceeded guidelines.
She is very clear when she speaks. She does not mind helping you if you ask for her help. She's a great professor.
Its a great class to take as a freshman. She is willing to help anyone if they ask for it. Class attendance is mandatory, but it you miss a class period you can send her your work but dont count on her sending it back to you on time so your out of luck. Over all its a good class just dont miss her class alot.
I absolutely LOVED being in Mrs.Lang's class. I don't like english, but she is so nice and helpful, she made it easier. She's also really funny, and makes the class entertaining and educational. I wish I could take her for all my english classes!
Wonderful Teacher. She really cares about her students and wants each and everyone to succeed. Goes out of her way to help you with your writing assignments. Made class enjoyable. Come prepared and ready to learn. GREAT TEACHER. I LOVED HER
One of the best teacher's at South!! She is so nice and helpful. She really goes above and beyond to help her students. I just loved being in her class! She also has a great sense of humor. She is a great teacher to take for English 101 OR EH102, I tried hard and am very happy I made a 'B' in her class. TAKE HER CLASS!!!
Mrs. Lang is one of the nicest and most helpful teachers I have ever had. Do what she assigns and go to class. Easy A.
One of my favorite professors I've ever had! She truly cares for students and will anything to help them. I highly recommend her for british lit
Prof. Lang is incredibly nice, helpful, caring. She is a very fair grader and her tests are exactly what she puts on the study guide. Occasionally, she cancels homework readings. Final is not cumulative for Brit Lit. I recommend her, especially for STEM majors, for whom English isn't a strong suit. I love Mrs. Lang!!!
By far, most amazing teacher ever. She really goes beyond to help students understand concepts. You definitely do have to study and reading is extremely helpful as well. The class lectures are usually enjoyable. She gives study guides for all tests, just make sure you take notes during lecture. These are the answers!
She is the best teacher at South!! Definitely take her for any class you can have her! I am actually changing a few of my classes around to have for 102 next semester! She is extremely understanding and helpful with anything and everything. I love her, and I suggest everyone to take her if possible!!!!
Mrs. Lang is an amazing professor and I would highly recommend taking her! I had her for an 8 AM class, and she really made the class enjoyable for it being an early class. Make sure you are always there for class though because attendance is a big part of your grade.
She is an amazing professor. i would take this class again. i loved her and so wanted her for 102.
Ms. Lang was an easy grader. I am not a strong essay writer and got all As and Bs on my 5 essays. she requires one in class essay and gives average homework. if you miss more than one day you will be confused as to what she wants for the next essay. Super nice and likeable!
Awesome teacher. I was never bored in her class. She really cares about students; however, you do have to put in some work for an A. She does not do extrabusy work and does relevant material in her class. Wonderful person and instructor. Her class is great, inspiring, and very useful to life.
One of my favorite teachers coming into my freshman year. Would definitely recommend her, for any class. You do have to put in work, but if you show that you are hardworking and care about your grade, she is a great teacher. Cares a lot about the students and is extremely helpful in class. You can tell she loves her job and really loves teaching.
She is an amazing teacher. She is clear and concise, but if you miss a class you can fall behind quick. She grades fairly with lots of helpful and useful feedback. She cares about you and your future and is enthusiastic about her job. Know your current events and participate. Reading is a must, the textbook and LB Brief received lots of use.
She is a great and inspiring professor! she is always there to help, and always has a smile on her face. I would totally recommend her :)
I absolutely loved her and her class. Her lectures are interesting thought provoking topics. She was alwaysssss there to help me! If you don't come to class and actually try she probably won't like you too much, but if you're the type to participate in class and put in effort it's a great class choice for you! One of my FAVORITE professors!!!!
She wasn't difficult but it's a lot of work and reading. I would recommend her but be ready to Read a lot.
She is by far the best professor I have ever taken. She is very clear and very helpful. Only thing that I didn't like was she taught until the last second but it was alright because she makes the class interesting. TAKE HER CLASS.
Don't get me wrong she is a nice teacher but overall her 102 class is every challenging which is expected for college ... The only problem I had with the class is that she expects us to write so much in a short amount of time ... I personally wouldn't take her if you're not strong in English and I felt rushed for every assignment !
At first I liked her but then I got to know her better. She says she will help you and you can email her anytime to ask questions. then when you email her she doesn't help you, just tells you to look at your notes because she already covered the material. very unhelpful. only two tests and mostly written. I would take someone else.
We just finished our final and honestley, I don't know how it could have been easier. She gives study guides, reviews material and takes questions on last day of class. Lots of reading but was never anything on test that we didn't know about. Super easy essay. Nice enough person. I'd take her again.
For any English class that has Mrs. Lang listed as an option, I highly suggest getting in that class or staying up all times of the nights to wait for a empty slot (I did),. Mrs. Lang is personally my favorite professor at South. She is understanding of anything that may happen during the semester and is willing to work with you if you do the same.
Mrs. Lang told my class straight up that nobody ever receives an A in her class. I for one have always made A's in English classes and never have I once made a B on a paper. One paper she gave me an 80 out of 100 and the only feedback I received was a misplaced comma and a misspelled word. She in an unfair grader. Trust me and do not take her.
Love her. I made an A in 101 and 102 with her, and I worked my butt off for it. Lots of my friends made A's and B's. If you ask her for help, she' give it to you. She even made me coffee when i went to her office hours and helped me get an internship I had been wanting. Be ready to go to the writing center a lot -- it really helps.
She was great! Engage in class discussions to get on her good side! Very nice and cares about her students. Apply feedback given in peer reviews and her grading. Don't make the same mistakes over and over again on papers or she will start grading tougher. If you engage and try hard you can make an A!
OMG we lovvvve her. Most of the people in my class are desparately trying to get her again next semester. Favorite professor by far.
She is really nice, but really tough. Be sure to go to class every day. you will definitly miss stuff if you do not. go to her office hours for help and she will help you
Dr Lang is the most helpful person I've had so far at south. I will miss not having her anymore :( You will have to work very hard, but its college so what do you expect. If you dont want to work or go to class, you should find somebody else bc she wont like that at all. she wants you to write about whatever you're interested in which was cool
Mrs. Lang was an amazing teacher to have as a freshman. She is really nice and gave outlines for all of papers and had clear deadlines and gave about two weeks to work on every paper. Class discussions were very interesting and she is there for help all the time. I would recommend taking her for 101 and 102.
I definitely enjoyed her as a teacher. She was always very willing to help and make things work for the students. There are approx. 4 major writing assignments and some nights she gives us *easy* homework. She does get off topic during her lectures - mostly on politics- but she is still an awesome teacher and totally recommend her!
I LOVE Mrs. Lang! She cares so much for her students. She really wants you to succeed in her class and in the real world. She isn't just an English teacher. She is also helping me create a resume outside of class! Her classes are very easy if you put in the work. I took both 101&102 with her and made an A. The writing lab helped me do that as well.
I did not like the heavy discussions of politics in class nor did I like being brushed aside a lot of the time. If you ask her to read over your paper for you the first time she will but other times she will not even consider it and just tell you to go to the writing center (which I have no problem with but the writing center doesnt help sometimes)
Honestly I don't know how she does all these papers by herself. some of them are SO BAD i can barely read them during peer review, which i do not like. If you go to her office hours, she will help you. I learned a ton of stuff that I've already been using ion other classes.
I would def recommend taking her class. She's so sweet and helpful. Attendance matters and it's very beneficial in her class. She'll definitely look out for you. She's willing to work with you if she sees your effort and she actually cares. Will meet outside of office hours & on weekends if needed. Easy A!! Best professor I've had! LOVE HER.
Lang is a great prof. I have learned more from her in one semester than I did all throughout high school. There are three major writing assignments and one research paper which is the final and is 10-12 pages long. It's not nearly as bad as it sounds. She gives you plenty of time to do them in. Make sure to go to class!!
Very enthusiastic
Not a hard class at all. No quizzes or test. You have 3 papers. The first two have to be at least 1,500 words and the final paper has to be about 3,000 words. (10-12 pages) She never emails back and honestly wont help a lot.
Tough but fair. Made us laugh every day. You could definitely do worse.
Mrs. Lang is an awesome professor. She is hilarious and wants you to succeed. We discuss a lot of current events in this class, which I really enjoy. Make sure you go to class cause we go over material everyday for papers. There are no test and three papers. She also cancels class a lot which is awesome
This is my favorite professor. She educates us on topics that are interesting and important. She goes above and beyond for all of her students. She is super caring, understanding, and a great communicator. Hands down the best professor at South!
Great teacher! If you have the chance to take her for EH 101 do it. She really helps you understand what you are having to write about and she gives you plenty of opportunity and even information to help you with your papers. For 102, there are only 3 papers. Not a lot of homework, if you have any, it's to read. NO tests, just papers.
I advise that you dont take her if you havent taken her for EH 101. She always advises the writting center and is nonchelant. She canceld like 3 times . I went to her office hours and she was rude to me. Be prepared to work on papers by yourself and make many appointments with the writting center. Save the time and avoid the dissrespect DO NOT TAKE
She's very kind and understanding. I loved her class! She is very helpful if you have any questions.
best teacher! she is so sweet and loves her students so much, she really makes us think. i would 100% take her class again
HANDS DOWN BEST PROFESSOR if you go to class she will see you actually care about your grade and then she will be very helpful and more lenient with you. She doesn't expect you to do something in your paper that she hasn't fully explained and provided an example for. She really cares about her students and will occasionally cancel class so yay!!!
Awesome teacher! Im not even good at writing papers but Professor Lang helps you. She is very understanding
Professor Lang is very sweet and acknowledges that her students are adults and treats them like it. She is very professional and wants her students to succeed. We had 3 big papers and sometimes had helpful writing excersises. I bought the textbook and never opened it.
Lang will pass you as long as you're trying. Stay organized and read the material and you'll be fine. 3 major papers and that's it. She'll make sure you have everything you need to write them. Not my favorite professor but she knows what she's taking about and can be really helpful when you're not doing great or need help.
Great teacher who wants you to succeed! She teaches you about life and the subject being studied! I highly recommend taking from her!
She was very nice!! If you attend class and then ask for help she goes above and beyond for you!
Mrs. Lang is very understanding that her class isn't the only one that her students take. She is personable and really cares about her students' success. We only had 4 or 5 papers, but PLEASE go to class. Her class truly isn't hard if you pay attention. She's very willing to help you, but only if you're showing the effort. I'm taking her 102.
She never helps when you email her with questions, she always refers to "did you check the syllabus? have you reviewed the online material?" like duh bro or i wouldn't have emailed you.
She's probably the least sympathetic professor there is. She takes absolutely forever to respond to emails and gives almost no support outside of class. But the worst part is all she talks about is going to the writing center because she WILL NOT HELP YOU!!!!! DO NOT TAKE HER!!!!!
I took her Fall 2020 online & she was very understanding & lenient. She kept pushing back deadlines on assignments for weeks because my classmates were just lazy & didnt listen, which was annoying. I passed with a 95, but I just didnt have it in me to sit through another English class & write papers, so I took the CLEP exam & got exempt from 102!
Anyone that says she was awful most likely gave her a hard time. She is the best, and maybe even the nicest, most understanding English professor youll get. This is not high school anymore, its college, but she makes the transition so easy for her freshman. I highly recommend taking her, or either take the CLEP exam and get credit that way.
Mrs Lang is an amazing teacher and anyone who has the chance to take her NEEDS TO DO IT!! If you do not get a good grade it is because you did not show up to class or did not put in any effort. She will give you the respect you give her! She is always accessible after class and answers emails. Amazing overall!
Maura Lang is rude and has no compassion or care for her students. In her zoom she has kicked out students left and right for any little reason she could find. Multiple students have dropped her class since we started. It doesn't feel like she even remotely likes teaching from how she treats her students. Do not take her if you have the option!!!!!
Covid zooms have been terrible but at least we have Mrs. Lang. She is by far the most helpful prof I have. She stays on the call after class whenever you need her and she told us how to get covid $ and I got some. She really cares. You better come to class and pay attention, though. Duh.
she always asks our opinions and we did like 6 conferences to go over my papers so she is super helpful. she does make you work on your drafts a lot. Yall complaining about getting kicked out of zoom but I'm in that class. She kicked yall out because you didnt have your work ready like the rest of us on peer review day. please. don't be a slacker.
I absolutely loved and enjoyed both 101 and 102 with Lang. She was so supportive, understanding, and very helpful when needed. She wanted only the best out of me and helped me be the become a good writer. I would absolutely no doubt take her again. Shes a gem!
Professor Lang is the best professor I have had at South. She is very caring and wants the best for all of her students. She understands when things come up and she will easily give extensions to make sure you can get the work done.
Lang is a good person overall,shes funny at times and she will work with you, but if you care about getting clear grading criteria/good feedback do not take her. Our whole class was confused on one of our essays and the feedback she gave out was really confusing. It took forever for her to put grades in and she neglects talking ab English in class
All of her classes were confused and all behind. We did all 3 papers in the last month. Not clear on what to do on essays. She is a really sweet person and understands if you are going through something. Will work with you. I would not take her again but she is a decent teacher.
After my 101 experience, having her was a dream. She is so helpful but that can mean things take forever. If you go to class and turn your work in on time, it's an easy A.
One of the best professors I have ever had!! I love her so much I am taking her again next semester for English 102. She's so helpful and caring. 100/10 recommend her.
Hands down the best english professor if not best college professor i've had . Extremely understanding and caring. She under stands you have a life and other classes. Very logical thinker and made class enjoyable, I hated english before her class. You CAN'T go wrong by taking her class.
She is a really sweet lady, but my online class went the ENTIRE month of March without hearing from her.I missed ONE essay due to being severely ill and I went from a 99 to a 50! I'm not even joking. She told me that I needed to have an excuse from the University? Uhh...what?!? Would NOT recommend!!! Still waiting for a final grade as of today.
Mrs. Lang is an amazing professor who will help you in any way possible. In my class we had 3-4 essays overall in the course. She is a fair and easy grader whenever it comes to the essay and as long as you put in work in her class you will do great. Not a lot of work. The only bad thing about Mrs. Lang is that she doesn't grade assignments fast.
Mrs.Lang is an amazing professor.She is working hard every single day to make us better at English.She is so caring of her students,If you are reading this YOU ARE MY FAVORITE TEACHER IIIIII LLOOOVVEEE YOU.
Mrs. Lang for EH 101 was ok, only because we had a teacher assistant. Mrs. Lang's strong suit was definitely not communication. All information was communicated by the teacher's assistant. Also, if you ever asked Mrs. Lang about anything, don't. She will degrade you and make you feel small. EH 102 was awful with her. I do not recommend her!
Took her for EH 102, she was very respectful and caring in the beginning, then became rude towards the end. She never stayed on topic of the criteria due that day so the class was always confusing, and very unorganized.
Professor Lang is understanding and caring, though her class can be disorganized at times. She provides helpful feedback on essays, but grading can be slow. For success, stay engaged, use study aids like Unstuck ai, and don't be a slacker.
I made an A in 101 and I'm making an A again in her 102 class. She is kind and thoughtful and trying to help as many people as possible so it takes forever to get grades. I just got a letter of recommendatoin from her too I would wait for her class if you want someone who will try to help you.
