Very great English professor. Gives great feedback and is available to review your essays before they are due. She helped my writing skills a lot. Even though I dread the subject of English, her class made the subject seem a little better. The class is somewhat difficult, but if you get all of your work reviewed it isn't too bad.

Honestly, I thought the class was relatively easy. As long as you go to class and do the assigned readings you should be fine. You are expected to know basic literary terms already, i.e. metaphor, alliteration, allusion, symbolism, and to participate in discussions. The most work you do outside of class is reading.

This teacher pushes her personal agenda along with what is specified in the course. Be prepared for her not to take your opinion seriously. Literature is a form of art that should be interpreted by the reader. If you aren't thinking what she is, she will consider you wrong and will make you feel stupid.

Dr. Livingston assigns a lot of reading and gives you a quiz on it the next class. She lets you print out the reading and use it on the quiz which is nice, but not ideal if you don't waste paper/ink. Wrote about 2/3 essays during the semester. Pretty simple topics but count for most of your grade so you have to do well on them

She is very very fun to have as a professor, but if you are a slow reader, or do not enjoy reading, DO NOT TAKE HER. She assigns ~100 pages of reading per week, sometimes within 2 days, and quizzes on every section of reading. There is 1 essay, an extremely difficult midterm, and a group project, and that is ~80% of your grade. Very harsh grader.

Dr. Livingston is such a great professor! She is very open and understanding. She does grade pretty hard, so just ensure you are doing what she wants. She pretty much lays it out in the beginning. She's also really funny and makes the class engaging. I'm taking her next semester for Brit Lit, and I'm super excited!

If you don't mind doing work, I would definitely recommend Dr. Livingston. She grades fairly, and it is easy to get high grades as long as you follow the rubrics. She only gives high As to those who truly work hard and go beyond the expectations given for each assignment though. Gives good feedback fast, and makes what would be a boring class fun!

Amazing professor. You will pass if you come to class and follow her guidelines. Is available outside of class and wants you to do well. You pick when you do your essay and group project. The midterm is kind of hard, but it isn't horrible. I always enjoyed going to class.

Great instructor, who makes expectations very clear, attendance is mandatory but if you miss a few days you won't be behind since all the work is clearly laid out in the schedule. Follow the rubric and you'll be fine. Would take her class again!

Dr. Livingston is a great professor if you're willing to pay attention and do the (pretty small) amount of reading each week. Assignments and due dates are very clearly laid out, making it relatively simple to follow along. Class itself was enjoyable and made analyzing these texts entertaining and fun. Grading can be harsh but is always fair.

I took 1102 in my first semester of college and she made it a breeze. I feel confident in MLA after taking the class. If you make it a month into the class, she opens up and becomes nice. People say she "grades tough," but just do exactly what she says and you'll get the easiest A ever. If you take an English class, take hers.

She's a fair grader and has little assignments here and there, along with a few larger assignments. You do have to write and care about your writing and participate. She had a lot of interesting energy but I think she's a good professor. Also, consider she has a group final project along with another group presentation.

The class requires lots of reading (no textbook but must buy books), and the assignments that go with are super easy if you do the work! Dr. L gives amazing feedback, insight, and class discussions. If you care about literature and are willing to put in the effort, this class is awesome. She's a fair grader and has opportunities to make up grades.

Either I went above and beyond or all the people that screamed "harsh grader" were exaggerating. She's a pretty fair grader. There were some pop quizzes and she's not the best at making schedules but it wasn't that bad. Plus she's funny and knew how to pronounce my name. As long as you don't miss class and keep up with the schedule you'll be fine.

Dr. L is a great professor who I would absolutely take again for a lit class! She focused this course on Gothic Literature (my FAVORITE) and chose interesting pieces to analyze that made this class worth taking. Her guidelines for grading are clear from day 1. Make sure you annotate all your readings! Not hard as long as you try.

You will do very well if you can think critically about your future in the workforce and have an understanding of MLA format. Getting an A in the class is not hard if you are willing to put three hours into each of the three major writing assignments. If you are from North Gwinnett HS you should sandbag your writing (AI). Angel of a professor!

Best pick for ENG 1102. Professor Livingston was funny, weekly assignments could be done in a day, and extra credit was available for each major paper. Most importantly, the research paper for all ENG 1102 courses involved researching your major and how to succeed with it. Since most students need this class and take it early, take it with her.

Dr. Livingston is one of the best professors I've had so far. You can tell she really cares about what she's teaching, and that helps make in-class participation easier. Reading quizzes are open-note, so if you have the book or took notes on it you'll be fine. There are a couple essays and group projects, but they're easy. Love her!

Dr.Livingston is genuinely a lovely professor. Attendance is mandatory, but there are no essays! Reading is mandatory, and your grade depends on it. She is a pretty tough grader on the group projects, but if you follow the rubric and try hard enough, you get an A. She is really passionate about the subject and is enthusiastic in the best way.

This class is really fun if you actually read the books and are prepared for the discussions. You do have to read a lot but we also watched movies and there is NO essays! Dr. Livingston does a great job creating a safe environment to talk and even though I don't normally talk in class I had no problem participating in the discussions.

I enjoyed my time as Dr. Livingston's student in English 1102. It's true that she does grade harshly but you'll understand exactly why you receive the grade you get on assessments. I think that this class has helped me understand my major a lot better, and I had a lot of fun in her class as she's really funny. Also cares for her students success

Absolutely loved having Dr. L as my professor. Although she is a tough grader, she will explain to the very detail as to why you got the grade you did. Also, she is very hilarious and likes to keep everyone involved. Do be ready to read because that is the entirety of this classwork.. NO ESSAYS. And we got to watch movies too. Loved having her.
