I don't think it was understood that we were freshman writers. I feel that the professor should edit the work, not my peers who were as lost as I was. That way if a student has a problem with writing, it will be made known prior to getting an F on a paper so proper help can be made available.

Started the first day telling us she is proud of how barely anyone passes her class. assigns multiple essays and assignments at once with only a day to do them. Assigns homework on days we did not have class without informing students. Constantly updating the syllabus without warning or informing. Very disorganized.

Lots of homework

Unorganized, Syllabus wasn't correct, and the feedback is incredibly vague and not helpful. Told us that if we have complaints about her teaching style to drop the class because shes the english head. Second day of class she brings in someone from tutoring to explain that they wont be able to help us. Writes deadlines to withdraw on papers

All the comments about her being smart and coming off rude is all true. The only upside was she did give extra credit. Not sure why she is so abrupt but she will not except no late work and no excuses. Do every assignment on time and follow all directions. Ask class mate if you have questions.

The syllabus was difficult to read, uses words incorrectly when giving feedback, expects you to know the material right away, misguiding information from both her and tutor, no late assignments or you'll fail, treats you as if your unintelligent... I mean the list goes on.

Professor Lewis is very clear on what she expects from the papers you turn in. If you follow the specific directions you will pass this class with flying colors. If you have questions she is easy to talk to.

She made me feel as if I was dumb and she is very rude and always gets smart when you ask a question. I do not recommend her class at all!!! I have never received anything lower than a B since I started college, and not to toot my own horn but my papers are always above and beyond, well organized, etc. She belittles students. Beware of her class.

Don't take ANY class given by this teacher. This is the WORST teacher I have ever had. None of the material is easy to find, none of the assignments are adequately explained, her feedback is awful. She started grading me better when I intentionally wrote bad papers. Also, formatting doesn't matter. Followed her formatting AND WAS MARKED OFF FOR IT.

She is an understanding person sometimes but she is a tough grader who will not give you any feedback until it is your final paper by then it won't matter. She will turn you away if you ask her to give feedback on how to better your paper and she will not read your essay if it is longer than 5 pages even if she tells you it has to be.lot of effort.

Awful professor with a terrible work ethic. Her whole setup is chaotic and hard to follow with no clear way to understand the material. Very insulting to ones work, and offers little to no feedback that isn't an insult. Do NOT take this class if she is your professor.

Prof. Lewis was a very caring and understanding person, and I appreciated how she would give us prompts to write about. However, her course tended to be chaotic and hard to understand, requiring you to read instructions multiple times to understand what an assignment entailed. She also tends to be a harsh grader, with confusing feedback

Professor Lewis is very clear on what she is requiring of students. She has videos to watch before each unit that details the requirements for each assignment. Weekly discussion boards, where your response is uploaded then peer reviews required for full credit. The tutor assigned to the class was very helpful and held weekly tutor proof sessions.

Absolutely horrible being her student. She's very rude, insulting, and doesn't take any accountability for any miscommunication errors. She's a tough grader and will drill your grade into the dirt. Her attitude towards work and students makes it so you don't want to come forward with questions. Mainly, because you don't want to be insulted.

Prof. Lewis had a format that was confusing, with assignments grouped by importance rather by date due. Her lectures seemed long and repetitive. Feedback was mainly unhelpful. Rubric papers and other instructions irked me, they were very helpful, but full of mistypes, unneeded capitalizations and other errors. Not many assignments.

Overall, a pretty difficult class reading wise. ENG 258 has an online discussion board every 2 weeks, and the readings are often 100+ pages, or a 3 hour long film, just for the single assignment. Not a lot of feedback, but chosen readings were informative, and I found the topics interesting. Maybe take her class.

Professor Lewis has a hard time being in-depth with corrections. She tells her students to not email her even though the course was online... Her canvas page is VERY unorganized, so be ready to search for your assignments. If Monique Lewis happens to be your teacher, fair warning you might want to rethink enrolling in her course!
