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.

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!

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
