Excellent teacher but got to know how to write an essay. She is very helpful and smart. Take her if your willing to work otherwise you will fail. Not an easy A or B. Have to WORK!!!
Excellent teacher. Must know how to write an essay. Teacher is really helpful and willing to take time to help you. Take her she is GREAT. Must have time in order to pass this class
Excellent teacher! Great humor. Very nice, helpful and professional. You will definitly learn in this class. Her work is very easy
Excellent teacher very helpful, will help you strive for the best in life and school.
very good, helped me pass the compass
She is one of the best teachers I have ever had. She also takes the time to explain the work and you can ask any questions. Excellent teacher who prepares you for the compass. Pay attention and you will be okay.
Even though I worked hard, in this class and on tests and essays I recieved a C or better I earned a C+ in her class. This professor is a great teacher, and is willing to go over the work with you if you need more help. You have to work in this class though, it's not an easy A.
Her teaching style is great. She makes sure you understand everything but the only thing that sucks is writting all of the essays but atleast they help and prepare you for the compass and essay sample test thing.
not good
Mrs. Bazemore is an excellent teacher. She is very clear and shows a strong interest for her students. After you take her class, you can write just about any kind of essay. Take her class because she is one of the best at Gpc.
Mrs. Bazemore is a really great teacher I have taken her for 99 and 1101 and plan to take her for 1102. Loves to help all students and wants no one to fail.I highly recommend!
Great teaching style! If you enjoy classroom discussion this class is a must. She asks very though provoking questions that end up being test questions, so pay attention! Overall this class was fun, but be prepared to read a lot! This class is an easy B!
she grades essays hard, but she will improve one's grammer skills.
What a badass teacher with lots of energy and enthusiasm! Weather you like it or not, the info will stick with you!
She is an awesome teacher, she knows how to get your attention. The class is easy as long as you do the work and put effort into it. I recommend this class to anyone.
She is a great teacher that loves her job. All of her information is very clear and helpful. You learn alot if you do the work that does not take long to complete. I learned everything I need to know about basic writing plus she's kinda hot.
Great teacher, she cares a lot about her students and she will help you through all of your assignments.
Mrs. Bazemore is a very helpful teacher she is always there to answer any questions, and is very clear with explaining the material. If you pay attention during class and make sure u do homework and go to class then you should easily be able to pull of an a or b.
This class could've been quite interesting but due to the professor teaching the class it was not. The amount of unnecessary notes that a student has to write down is quite disturbing, and her need for students interpretation of writings questions whether she has a clear understanding of the readings. I would not recommend her. Take Ken Johnson.
Referred to herself as 'my sista' on first day of class. African American Literature yes but alienating non-black students is uncalled for.
Mrs. Bazemore was awesome! I took her for summer school and learned more in her class then any other class during a full semester. Props to Mrs. Bazemore and props to her teaching. She is a great teacher! Very highly recommended!
There is not enough room here for me to tell you how great of a teacher Mrs. Bazemore is. Mrs. Bazemore is the best teacher I have ever taken at GPC. I took her for ENGL 1101 and learned so much in her class. She is always willing to help in any way that she can if you need it. Very highly recommended! Thank you Mrs. Bazemore!
No Comments
I think Mrs. Bazemore is an excellent teacher. I recommend this class. Her teaching style is very systematic and she is always prepared for class.
Wonderful teacher. If you have a problem understanding fundemental of english, Bazemore is the teacher to take; she is awesome.
She is a great professor. She is always willing to help her students. She is always excited about teaching and even more excited about her students learning. She is on top of her game when it comes to the work. As long as you do the work you should be fine.
SHE HAS HER OWN GRADING STYLE, BASED MOST OF THE TIME ON FACES.
Apparently, the student who rated this instructor for ENGL 1101 did not do well on the essays in the class. Yes, she is a tough grader, but fair. Students who give negative comments seem to be the ones who are afraid to go and speak with her. Why not make this same comment to her instead of on the web?
I have not had Mrs. Bazemore for that long, but her class is as interesting as the materials she is teaching. She allows discussions to be open, as well as showing respect for all her students and their opinions. To all those who complian, it sounds like you aren't up to a challenge. Well then, what are you doing in college?
I would not recommend this class if you want to keep your GPA up or get an A. This class was very very hard. No matter how hard you work, it will not be hard enough. I had an honors class that I manage to make an A in but could not make an A in this class to save my life!! Don't take this class if you wanna do good in english!!!
I think that it is obvious to any one who reads her profile that SHE wrote the two messages above: about no talking to her face and about a student not being up to the Challenge. Na Keya is an awful teacher she is not respectful and she is as ghetto as her name. She is unfair and hopefully soon be removed from the staff. If you like your GPA do not
Mrs. B is a great teacher. She cares about her students. If you are having a hard time, ask her for help. I learned a lot in her class.
Do not take this class at all if you want to get an A and actually learn something. It is not worth it and she does not help you. You can ask for help and do all nighters, but it will not improve your grade or your GPA. I came from an honors english class and got an A, but got a C in her class. Whatever you do, stay away from her and her class.
she just plain sucks
I do not understand why so many students have "dogged" this professor. She loves teaching and is willing to go far and beyond to make sure all students grasp the material. It seems that some of these comments are means to get back at her for poor grades in her class. Oh my goodness, she will work you, but it pays off in the long run. Trust me!
I think she is an outstanding professor.
Her teaching skills are lacking. I'm more entertained by watching her move her hands, raise and lower her voice like a Preacher then to actually learn something from her lessons. She is the equivalent of a micromanaging boss who wants things done her way from writing skills to how you dress or else.
very tough professor. Has only one way... "her way."
She is very helpful, hard on grades, but if you sign up in her class you will learn English. She is nice.
Stay away from this teacher, if you hate alot of homework. If you don't participate, you better believe she will call on you. To get a decent grade you difinetly have to work for it.
hard for me...
Very hard class and very tough teacher. Take someone else.
too hard to be worth what you learn and the grade you get. find another teacher.
she is very dedicated and makes the class fun. the class was a summer class,so it was intense, but she was very helpful.
Mrs. Bazemore is by far the worst teacher I have ever had. She is hot tempered and rude to her students. If you are in her class, she treats you like an infant or worse. I believe she does racial profiling. Her grading structure is poor and no matter how hard you try to make good grades, it doesn't matter. She picks and chooses favorites.
Take someone else. She is very demanding in a negative way!
Mrs. Bazemore is awesome. She's friendly and always helps her students. She makes the class fun! I would definitely want to take a class from her again. Her tests are fair. We didn't have to read alot at all. If we did have to read, she usually gave us a short quiz the next class. TAKE HER! :)
great teachers cares about her students
On top of her game man yall need to stop haten I say getem Mis.B
DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS (unless you want to fail) especially if you are a joint enrollment student. Her double standards are huge. She grades joint enrollment students especially hard. She also made my writing worse. SAT score went down 50 points, essay grades went down an entire letter grade. DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS!
DO NOT TAKE HER! Life is to short then be consumed with her demands of homework, etc. MOVE ON. Very difficult!!!!!!!
she is nice. but i didnt learn much. i am a JE student and i didnt think she was too tough. i tended to bounce back and forth from hating her and liking her. her grading really doesnt make much since, it seems kind of arbitrary. her class was all in all okay. oh yeah, and she calls a causal essay a casual essay. two totally different things
I had Mrs. Bazemore in the Fall of 06' and I really liked having her as a teacher. She was very clear and helpful on all of the assignments. Yes, there was work and you have to work for your grade, but isn't that what college is supposed to be about? She also made the class entertaining and I would definitey reccommend her.
She is out of her mind! she assigns work on top of work. I cant recall ever getting a break.If i could go back in time when picking my classes i would NEVER chose her class. especially coming from a learning support class becuase she is the most difficult teacher i've ever had. Think twice before taking her class.
Ms. Bazemore is a really good teacher. She is very helpful in her work and wants everybody to pass her class. She is very joyful and you will have fun in her class. If you really want to learn English I would fully say take her class.
Find another professor
I had Mrs. B for 0098, 0099, 1100 she is an awesome teacher. I would highly recommend her as being your next english professor. She is so good that her seats are taken really fast. I love her, she may be a little critical on papers, but she is only trying to help u become a better writter, for the future and the next english level. she is great
Bazemore is a great English teacher. She is very enthusiastic about her lessons, and she is more than willing to help her students. She's also clear about the assignments for class, and a fair grader when it comes to essay, but this isn't a class that you can just slack off and not come too..gotta work.
She is a very unfriendly person, who doesn’t treat all students the way it should be. It’s sad but it is truth. Look for any other professors.
Ms. Bazemore is not that friendly and she is extremely hard. if you get an C in her class its an A in another class. So dont try to impress her because you cant nothing is good enough for her
More interested in protecting her repution than teaching students. She is way to tough.
Great lady, great class. Yes there is alot of work but she will work with you if she sees you make the effort. Papers are straight forward. What do you expect? Its college, the people below need to remember they are in a college level course. Take her, work hard, DONT CHEAT and you'll EARN the grade you get.
Mrs. B is a tough teacher, but she makes lessons fun and is very sweet! This was by far one of my funnest classes! There are alot of papers and you MUST do the assignments on time! Overall, I'd reccommend taking her classes. She is a great teacher and you will learn alot! IF you do the work, you can easily get an A or B. :)
English is a very difficult subject for me. With a little hard work this class was passable though. I feel as though I have improved alot for my level of competence. She is a very helpful teacher, and a nice person all around. Be Prepared to work when this class is taken, but also be prepared for help if it is needed.
She tries hard, but it's difficult to teach a subject that not only comes from the 9th level of the inferno, but is also proof that demonic forces exist.
She tries very hard, but it is difficult to teach a subject that not only comes from the 9th level of the inferno, but is also proof that demonic forces exist in the world.
She is absolutely ridiculous in grading essays. It is simply not possible to improve your grade. Whatever you get on the first essay is what you will get on every single essay throughout the semester. She is unfriendly, unhelpful, and really should not be teaching college.
She is a very tough teacher. I have always received good grades on all my papers in other classes, and hardly passed anything in her class. I worked super hard in this class and had nothing to show for it. She made me feel like I was a horrible writer. Be prepared to work A LOT in her class. She is always willing to help out though.
Surprised she gets anyone signing up for her classes. Take anyone else but her.
This class is very strange. She is a great person, and actually teaches you. But if you want to get higher than a C you have to work on your essay's 10 hours a day. Do not take this class!
she is the meanest tacher i ever had, specially if u are an ESL student. u better do not sign up for her class!
Mrs. Bazemore is a very mean teacher.She does not care about anyones issues and she is not understanding. She grades very hard on essays, and she will tell you that. Also, she makes her students write alot of in class essays, and she will allow her students to revise only 2 of their essays but she only gives 5 points or less back to your essay.
She is the worst teacher.
This is the worse class I have ever taken, the way she grades is so hard and the class is very difficult. Believe me you will be sorry if you take this class with her. This comment its not because i fail the class, it is because i felt the necessity to let other people know that is almost impossible to get a C with her.
Hey you guys out there registering for classes you better believe all of us who took her and know how hell is. DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS. She is very difficult.
She was strange you had to catch her on a good day. She was a good teacher she knew what she was talking about. But do not take her if you do not plan on working. She is passionate about her work.And would not hesitate to tell you how it is.
She is the worst teacher. She makes u feel stupid about your writing. At the beginning of the semester we were about 20 students at the end of the semester there was only 6 students...She is so hard and mean... Do not take her !!!!!
She just makes you feel stupid. Her class is ridiculously hard, she is not friendly, and on top of that she hates to help.
If you are not serious about taking this class, do not waste your time! She is a good person but very though teacher! She knows her stuff, but unless you are ready to work hard, pick someone else! Get ready to study hard and at the end it will pay off!!!
Mrs. Bazemore is a great intructor! She is very helpful. Her class is not a joke. It is hard, but her teaching makes its very easy to understand! If you attend class everyday you will be fine! Writing essays is the main focus in this class.She's a great teacher! I have taken her for engl 98 & 99. I'm taking her for engl 1101 next semester as well.
She's a good teacher but is EXTREMELY HARD! If you take her class, you have to be prepared to work. Her course is not a slack class
Hated the class and her instruction. She must have some issues because she is unreasonable. She is on a power trip and will belittle you. AVOID her class.
She is a cool teacher but STUDY and PAy Attention in class and you will be fine. She's a very good teacher a little strict when it comes to TUrning in assignments NO LATE WORK will be accepted
Her class is impossible to get an A and really hard to get a B. Pretty much everyone in the class was sitting on a C. She has an attitude problem on top of that even when you ask questions. If you do not love english don't take this class.
You definitely need to be self disciplined in order to keep in her class.Dont take her class if you're a slacker. She gives out quizzes which are on her lectures so pay attention!Be sure to start your essays when she gives you the assignment & proofread because she will find your mistakes!These are submitted@ turnitin.com only!
I wish I had known about this site prior to taking Ms. Bazemore's class. From the first day, it was easy to see that she was on a serious power trip and would rather make you feel stupid than answer your questions or help you. I could go much more in depth, but overall I found her to be very rude. I wouldn't recommend for anyone to take her classes
I'm very upset about the outcome of this class. I made a B in learining support English 098, clearly thinking that i had some sort of good foundation. Obviously i was WRONG. this class is the hardest course that i have ever taken. i thought that i grapsed the information that was being taught but when it came down to writting essays and tests i wou
This was my worst teacher ever. She grades so hard, she doesn't even care if you at least tried your best! If you really not the best writer in the world, don't take her! All the students got C in her class! Beware!
Nakeya Bazemore is one of the most reckless teachers that I have ever met.She is very rude & could care less if you tired your best to sastify her. She is a perfectionist. She will call you out and embrass you. She tells you ask 4 advice but when you do she makes you feel like you are the most dim-witted person that exists.SHE IS HORRIBLE!WARNING
she is very Intimidating. She is cocky, and an offensive individual.I'm a freshman in college and i just graduated 08 of HS.and me personally attending her class was like torture!As you enter her class she makes you stop EVERYTHING i mean EVERYTHING you are doing to listen to her. She will not speak until you stop or sastisfy her commands/questions
harsh but effective
Ms.Bazemore is so full of herself.She has no people skills. She is extremely rude and enjoys belittleing people. Karma will get her one day.
Ms. Bazemore is a harsh teacher with her grading, but you do not have to worry about making a bad grade in her class if you study the notes and do your homework. People say she is rude, but she is only stand offish when you deserve it. (use your manners. Duh.) You are paying about $400 to be in this class....she is worth every penny. Trust.
Mrs.Bazemore is not the easiest teacher but she makes sure you understand everything. I personally believe that she is one of the best teachers at Georgia permiter
Teaches very well!! Also very helpful on everything! Tests and essays are easy if you prepare ahead of time.I would recommend her to anyone!
i liked her.. take her but u have to work.. she was the best teacher that i had.. her class is hard but u have to work hard as well.. she gives a lots of quizs that means READ everything she gives cuz there might be a quiz the next day.. she knows what she is doing and teaches very well!!!
she's hard and expects you to do your best at all times,yet she is extremely helpful and after the first week she loosens up. You will learn a lot from her class
If you are a good writer, you are not in her class!In this class you will work and work to only find yourself struggling.She has an attitude, will help you because she has no choice, but when she does she still has an attitude about it.So many of us regret being in her class and everyone I know including myself will not take her ever again! Beware!
she is very strict on essay, but i have learned alot from her and she helps you along the semester if anything is needed. The problems are that she grades essays really strict and also she announces POP QUIZZES. If your taking this class, make sure you read what she gives you and do your best.
Ms. Bazemore came across as vary unforgiving, and unwilling to help out side of class.
she takes her job way too seriously, she doesn't understand the ethics of a teacher but definitely knows the ethics of teaching like a boot camp professor. She is very hard , if you want to take her class i suggest your prepared every day. If you think you'll miss one day unprepared , you might as well drop the class. DO NOT BE LATE
It is a pretty rough course, if you can keep up with her teaching, go right ahead!
for one of the essays, i spent 12 hours writing, reviewing with a tutor, and reviewing with her! i still got a 73 on the essay. it is impossible to get an A unless you are a english major! do not take her class! on top of that she is rude and always has an attitude!
Although Mrs. Bazemore is a difficult teacher,she helped prepare me for the writing to exit Engklish 99, as well as the exit compass. To me she was a great teacher, and I know that I am a better writer because of her!!!
She is so ELEMENTARY. On the second day of class SHE GAVE A POP QUIZ ON THE SYLLABUS. Seriously!
This class was very hard and I agree you have to be an English major to pass. I do believe her intentions are good for making students push themselves to the limit, but she has no problem with being straight forward.
I dont know what this ladies deal is but it will certainly become yours when you take her class.She will quiz you on small details of stories that have nothing to do with the overall class.She does African Am Lit a injustice & should stop teaching it. I went out of my way to take this class and now have a horrible teacher with some sort of complex.
Ms. Bazemore is a difficult instructor but I learned more from her about writing than any english instructor I've had so far. If you want to become a better writer take her because she is very helpful. Make sure you have your book by the 1st or 2nd day of class because she gets started early, and use the book a lot for the learing support classes.
I took this class half a semester and it was difficult. It can be done and a good grade can be achieved. Lots of discussion questions with 2 responses for each. Exams have multiple choice, true/false, fill in the blank, and short answers. Make sure you have the book the first day of class and read ahead if possible. No extra credit!!! 2 Essays.
Ms. Bazemore was an extremely difficult teacher. I took the class online and when I would email her about assignments or instructions I didn't understand she would not email me back in a timely manner then she would give incomprehensible instructions. Do not take her for half a semester online.
Exempt test offered first week of class, pass and you're done. From my interaction with Miss Bazemore, she was very nice and pleasant (I exempted the course)
Mrs. Bazemore is the teacher that you hate. Then one day you realize how much you are learning, how smart you are & how dumb you were being. If you are interested in getting in & out of this class, this is not the professor you should invest in. However, if you are interested in developing & being prepared for what is next, she is one of the best.
Professor Bazemore class was great and straight forward. Do the assignments and reply to two classmates discussion, you will pass. I don't know why this professor gets a bad rap. I really enjoyed her class. She always replied to my emails in a timely matter. I recommend this class!
RUN!!!!! Do not take this teacher. Gives multiple discussion that are due every week after reading long stories. Some weeks there may be 3-4 discussion to due and each you have to respond to 2 other students. Also has you purchase a book that has two volumes in it when you only read just one. A waste of money!!! 1 essay and quiz every week on book
Do not take, 4 discussion each week, long readings, quizzes every week, midterm and final are m/c, fill in the blanks, paragraphs and essays. No extra credit, teacher is not helpful at all.
I took Professor Bazemore for Research; this is a pass or fail class. I failed because I missed the final that was opened for one day. This Professor had the power to make the exception based on the fact and her omission that I was a student that was normally on top. I have an F in a 1 credit hr class. I strongly advise not 2 take.
Horrible professor that does not give clear instructions nor any feedback.
Never had a worse experience with an instructor! I won't call her a professor because I would think that they are more professional. Bad attitude, slow with feedback. Shouldn't be teaching.
I do not recommend this professor. Not only is she a tough grader, but she also gives minimal instruction. Very unorganized and fails to respond on a timely manner. She updates assignments throughout the week that it's due. Assignments are posted in different areas of making them difficult to locate. Grades are posted 2-3 wks after submission.
I did well the whole semester and some how she claimed she did not receive my Final which resulted in a D as it was 30% of the grade. I retook the course w/another professor and received an A. She does not respond to emails in a timely manner, and when she does, it is in a condescending tone. Please believe the reviews and do not take her course.
Pass or fail class. I took her mini-mester online course. I wouldnt take the class if you dont know much about technology b/c her instructions arent crystal clear. Her responses are kind of late so ask them early. Its not an easy A but its not a very stressful class. Youll spend 3 hours AT MOST each week working on her assignments.
Literally takes over 2 months to grade just 1 essay and surprises her students with failing essay grades. I did not choose this teacher as she was a replacement but I am shocked as to how harshly she grades without giving any explanation on why I received such a bad grade. Literally the worst online teacher ever!! I hate her so much...
She states this as a "pass or fail" class after you've already enrolled. Gives you points 900 points is an A or pass 899 or below fail. It's ridiculous. Don't take her
A or fail, which is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard of. Works not that hard but she takes FOREVER to grade.
Two discussions weekly with lots of reading. It was tough to find a rhythm at first but once you do its worth it. She really challenges you week to week and then you do a research paper in lieu of a final. I would recommend.
This Professor is the worst.
This professor is the worst professor ever. I don't recommend this class to anyone
don't take her she is very bad.
The professor takes months to grade and when she does, she takes off so many points. You could write the best essay ever and she'll still take points off for something. She was also slow to respond to emails and wasn't very helpful when she did respond.
Terrible professor.
She was very bad at giving instructions since she had been very vague. She was very strict with grading. She assigns a lot of homework and gives us very little time to complete it. When you email her, she will not be very specific and will remain vague even though she responds promptly. She makes this course much harder than it needed to be.
Horrible experience. Grades essay's almost a month after it was turned in. She nitpicks grammar to the harshest degree possible. Every week she has assignments due on Wednesday which is so inflexible with my schedule which was the whole reason I took it online so I could balance it with work and other classes. Too many useless discussion posts.
Took forever to grade any essays. Don't expect to have any idea what your grade is until the week after final grades are due - this includes work from like the beginning of the semester.
This class was a real struggle. The professor had very specific and strict grading, making assignments due on inflexible deadlines. While unstuck AI helped with some study prep, the overall experience was pretty unhelpful. I'd avoid this class if possible.
Professor Bazemore was seriously a hardheaded professor. She lacked clear grading on the essays, making it very difficult to fit to her standards and receive an A. She was not kind either. I emailed her about a genuine technical difficulty, and she gave me a bad grade on my assignment because she would only acknowledge the fact it was late.
super tough grader, even though the assignments are relatively easy
