Professor Kennedy is beyond amazing. Her class is super-duper easy if you show up and participate. THAT'S ALL, LITERALLY! Of course there's work here and there, what class doesn't have work? but she gives you guidelines, along with presentations and lessons in class to help you with your essays. She wants the best for her students. Get her now!!!!!
I took professor Kennedy for enc 1101. She explained everything clearly and provides great examples! She gives presentations but is funny. Great class!
I learned something new which is always cool. Awesome instructor!!!
Professor Kennedy is fantastic! I took her class for Enc 1102. If you participate and try she respects effort and will work with you!
Professor Kennedy is wonderful. She cracks jokes sometimes, which actually keeps it somewhat entertaining. She is very nice but fair! You have to work for a good grade, but she gives you the help to do it.
Hi, Mrs kennedy����������
Liked the class. Do the work youll be alright. Take her �� worked out good for me!!!!!
The first day of her class, I was scared. She comes off super hard, but she really isnt! Shes not that tough of a grader, but you just have to show up for class and pay attention. She has open book quizzes/tests too and only like 3 papers! Shes very helpful as well! :)
Best professor Ive had at palm beach state. Take her!!!
She helped me through the express class. I thought I might drop it but she was not as tough as I thought she might be. She is fair! I liked the class. She does a lot of group work in class. If you participate you will pass. She is amazing!
She will teach you to write in a manner that grasps the reader's attention. Her expectations are clear and she may even inspire you to be more scholarly through her example.
She was one of my top 3 professors by far! She is very clear about what she wants. She helped whenever me I asked for it. Her class is super easy if you show up and do the work. I would definitely take her again!
By far one of the best professors ever if youre a fan of sarcasm. I think shes hilarious and when we were able to have 1 on 1 time to discuss my work she was very clear about what she wanted. Taught me so much and I will definitely be taking her for 1102.
Shes okay, shes a really tough grader. Essays and quizzes make up most of your grade so you cant fail. Shes really into her job, and she gets frustrated a lot so goodluck. I wouldnt take her again though, I swear she made me lose my mind
She is really caring. There are 3 essays thats it! She does not like when your really late so be careful of that. She gives help when you need it outside of class. I am taking her again.
Professor Kennedys class was fun! If you like sarcasm, you will like her class. I was sad it ended. I had a good time and not many professors are that laid back!
I love this professor. She knows her stuff. I can say I learned so much in her class. She does one on one with you. It was definitely worth it.
I thought she was helpful and she gave a lot of helpful guides for writing. I can say she does not appreciate when you miss a lot of class, so if you take her, beware of that. But if you ask she will help you out. I liked her and i can say she actually cares about teaching.
Sarcastic! I had her for literature loved this class! She leads some deep discussions on the literature and will open your eyes to things. The final exam was a group project. There is hardly any writing but lots of discussion and she will call on you. I had fun but learned!
Can be good with note giving in preparation, however, mostly makes you learn on your own in regards to citing work and that is a BIG part of the class. Not the easiest to approach.
She is a really nice lady but doesn't teach you anything. If you're not that great at writing then don't take her class. She'll assign you essays and wont go over how to do it. Don't take her
She gives writing workshops in class and explains everything clearly. She also makes time to meet you outside of class. Very good!
Hilarious! Take her now!
This professor can seem hard at first but really isn't. She likes when you participate in the discussions. The discussions are always interesting and will keep your attention! She is knowledgable, I would recommend!
She is a good teacher no midterm, one group project read stories and answer questions for each thats basically the whole class
She teaches in a way that catches your attention and listens to everyones opinions. The class felt welcoming. There are stories and questions and she discusses them every week. group project at the end. That is it.
Amazing professor she, she gives you a chance to rewrite your papers twice which gave me a chance to pull my grade up. Just show up and ask for help. She never turned me away.
Second time taking her class and she is still the best! She gives very good feedback, not only on the paper but on how to improve in general. Has a great sense of humor. Class goes by and you do not even realize it!
I didnt have the best experience with this professor. She cancelled class several times. I also worked very hard on the assignments and they never went towards my final grade. The semester ended yesterday and only two grades were posted (out of 13). Maybe she was going through a rough time, but I would not recommend her based off of my experience
I thought taking her would benefit my writing skills by the reviews only to be disappointed with no grade. The semester ended a week ago, assigned many paperwork that we never learned from her & says she will put grades in when she never did.. Im not sure if shes going thru something but take her if you just wanna teach yourself.
I took Professor Kennedy for 3 classes. Shes one of the best at actually teaching how to write essays. She is funny and the class was definitely entertaining.
Kennedy always met with me when I needed extra help and even took phone call appointments. She is very caring and helped me with my essays. There are only a few the entire semester. Class participation is important. There are mostly groups in class and practice writing. She has a good sense of humor. The class always felt comfortable in discussions
Excellent professor! I was never bored in her class and my writing got better, especially learning MLA citing.
If you show up and do the work youll basically pass. I had her twice. Have to be an idiot to fail her class. Shes caring and the essays are the majority of the grade, there are three of them. She knows how to laugh and make the class not so stressful.
Excellent professor. I had her for a couple classes. I got a better grade than I thought I would. There are mostly writing assignments and a few quizzes.
I am taking Professor Kennedy for Literature and it is AMAZING!!!! Why? The discussions are online but REALLY interesting. There is small group discussion and she gives you TIME TO ACTUALLY READ THE STORIES!!! :)))))) There are also questions and quizzes that is it.
This class is REALLY GOOD!!! There is reading and group talks that are interesting and she is funny. She calls on the class to answer questions to make sure you read. There is not much writing, mostly quizzes and discussions on the stories and poems. Read and show up ready to talk deeply, and that is it, and the quizzes.
There are group discussions and enjoyable. The live discussions help the understanding of the literature. There is a good variety of stories, poems and plays. Very good class!
This professor is a great choice! There is mostly just group discussions and quizzes. It was a great summer class.
Don't take English with Professor Ouida. She's rude with students and it's not fair with assignments, you can try your best in the class but she's not going to care about that. If you're an ESOL student or you don't speak perfect English, DO NOT TAKE HER.
Professor Kennedy will work with you on your essays. She is fair and taught me how to improve my narrative writing. If you are serious about wanting to improve and learn the right way, she's it. She gives good feedback on the essays and lets you edit your papers. If you do the work it pays off. Take her!!
Very good professor and helpful. Just do the work and you'll PASS!
A pleasant professor and the class is easy to manage. She spreads out three essays and that is the focus of the work.
???? She did not show up to class for 2 months in a row and expected us to know how to complete her assignments. Would not recommend as an online professor.
An easy class and its organized. She gives a fair time to finish the assignments and gets back quickly if you have questions outside of class.
I took Professor Kennedy for Enc1101 and she was good in the beginning, but she cancelled class more than she conducted class. When we did have class she was apathetic and cut class short everyday. It was an easy A, but I was looking for an engaging teacher even if that meant a more difficult class. I would not recommend her.
I would not recommend, took her class online for distance learning and she was just not the best teacher. She gave me an F because it was not turned in correctly (it's my first year) she told me to turn in correctly ASAP which I did and she kept it as a F, emailed her about 10 times and she still hasn't changed it. She's rude gives a lot of work!!!
I took her enc1101 and she kept things focused and did not make us do busy work. I learned how to write and did not feel like I wasted my time with meaningless assignments. Great professor.
Personally with my mother in and out of the Hospital Mrs. Kennedy was super understanding and made sure that she helped me and made sure I passed. She is by far one of the greatest Professor I have had in a while.
I took Professor Kennedy looking to better my writing skills and honestly felt like I have. She gives rubrics with every essay and writing examples that helped me. Not being in school for over 10 years, she responded to me quickly when I needed it which I appreciated. Great professor.
Great teacher , Although see is a really tough grader
DO NOT take Professor Ouida as your ENC1101 professor. All she does is gives assignments, cancels every class, and expects you to know everything. Also, she grades students as if they were professional authors when we are obviously not. Worst prof ever not to mention she has an attitude with every question and gets upset at everything.
DO NOT take Prof. Kennedy. everyone in my class struggled. You never learn anything, always cancels class, she will kick you out of class for dumb reasons, she doesnt teach just hands out assignments and expects us to figure it out on our own, and doesnt help you when you email her. also doesnt like answering questions. worst professor!!!!!
Please do not take this Professor . Cancels class all the time, doesnt help, she isnt willing to help her students and constantly removes students out of class for silly reason. She is seriously rude and makes you feel dumb for asking questions . the work she assigns is out of control . She is the worst grader you wont get work back for months
I would not have made it through the class without this professor being so understanding. She does not make you waste time on busy work and I learned to better my writing and about MLA.
Easy class if you show up and do the work! We didnt have to login all the classes unless it was worth it. Ill be taking her again. Recommend her.
She is an going professor and helped me through the semester. She expects you to do the work and put in effort. If you do she is cool and worked with me.
Professor Kennedy is a very straight forward professor. If you want to pass this class you need to write papers that carry weight in the real world. Professor Kennedy always gave great feedback for improvement. Overall, the class consisted of 3 essays, 2 visual presentations(accompanying 2 essays), and assignments on reading(not much reading).
Best Professor I have had in a long time. She is very straight forward and doesnt sugar coat anything, but it helps you become a better writer.
I really liked this Professor. She breaks up the class in modules and we had 2 weeks for each one in the fast track class. It was easy to follow. There are discussions, a quiz, and a paper for three modules.
Took Professor Kennedy twice. Both classes, she makes the class entertaining and is funny. She does mostly group discussions on articles, and the essays are the main focus/grade.
She seems hard at first but worked with me. She makes individual time for you if you ask and the one on one conferences helped my writing.
Professor Kennedy was amazing! She gave great lectures and not much work.
Her sarcasm on the literature discussions made it lighthearted but learned so much. It was a good class. Mostly reading and group discussions.
Her class was manageable. The online workshops were most helpful. She will model the writing and then small groups will edit live. The essays count the most and there are three all semester.
Prof Kennedy is funny and makes the class interesting. Mostly group discussion, quizzes on readings, and discussion posts.
Professor Kennedy is detailed and will work with you. She helped me so much in research and the writing. Her writing templates HELP SO MUCH!!!!! Highly recommend!
Took Professor Kennedy for Literature. It is mostly group discussions, quizzes, discussion posts, and some writing, also a student written poem. I enjoyed the class and recommend her!
She is amazing. I did my class online so I had to do the work before class. The first assignment I did not turn it in on time and I thought I would fail and was thinking to drop the class but she extended the time. Mostly discussing and 4 quizzes. 1 student poem. You will be fine. I did 4 courses and still got an A in summer so you will be alright.
I took this class over the summer and liked it! She is caring and wants her students to do well. Also the discussions are interesting on the stories and poems. Great professor!
Professor Kennedy cares about her students.
She is one of the best professors I've had. She made time for me outside of class and worked with me. Recommend!
Her class is doable and I learned more about writing. I feel my papers improved this semester. Good professor!
She does a lot of group work and discussions. The class isn't hard if you do the work. She really pushes respect and gives everyone a chance to share their opinions. She is very helpful and responded to my emails quickly.
Love her!!!! She doesn't overload us with busy work! There are three essays and she keeps it simple and to the point. She also does MLA practice which was amazing.
I took her for literature. The discussions are always interesting. We wrote poems and she lets us be creative. I would take her again! One of my favorite professors!
I took Professor Kennedy for an Introduction Lit. course. The discussions were interesting and I looked forward to class. She does expect the stories to be completed, and she gives reading quizzes. There were also group projects that were fun on the drama writing. She is a really good professor.
It was an Easy class overall. I enjoyed the Southern stories.
If you want an easy A, I suggest taking her. Ms. Kennedy is very unorganized and doesn't care for her students. She kept cancelling classes making us fall behind and never explaining the reason why. She doesn't briefly go over her own instructions nor does she respond to her emails.
Professor Kennedy's class was not difficult; however, she would not answer any questions during class, often responding with "if it's a personal matter just email me", despite most questions not being personal, and there was plenty of time in class, it just felt pretty rushed. Not to mention she rarely answered emails.
Professor Kennedy's class is easy to follow for literature. She provides a reading list for the entire semester. Her discussions are interesting and she keeps the class engaging. Great professor!
Professor Kennedy's class was good to improve writing. She gives clear grading rubrics and helpful feedback. So far, she's the best writing teacher I've had.
She is amazing! Kennedy helped me outside of class and met with me personally live online for help. She can seem unapproachable at first but once you ask, she is very caring and helpful.
I was overall dissatisfied with this professor throughout the entire semester. Her feedback was not good. Emails were not responded to, and she did not assign assignments with enough time to spare. She just dropped them on us a few hours before due, and during days that the school was closed, we were still supposed to attend and turn in assignment.
During live sessions, it was hard to get questions answered, even about assignments. We were told to email, but replies were often delayed. Class was canceled several times without notice. Feedback was minimal, with group work or self-grading and comments like “good job” without real guidance.
I took her live online class, and she missed several sessions without notice, leaving students waiting on Teams. This felt disrespectful. She was hard to reach for questions and often redirected to email without clarifying issues. Grading was unclear—positive comments, such as “very good,” often resulted in a B.
Took her live online class, she is very disorganized and inconsistent, changes due dates at random times, poor time management skills gives feedback the day the final paper is due not time to make corrections, cancelled classes without sending an announcement, she never responds to emails leaving students confused. What a waste of time and money.
Prof. Kennedy does not micromanage which I appreciate. We broke into groups and she gave feedback but let us collaborate on our own which helped me take more initiative. She responds to emails quickly and if you do the work, you'll learn. Great instructor!
She gives three essays over the course. She gives rubrics that are clear which helped. My essays improved and the writing groups help too!
Prf Kennedy is direct and to the point. No fluff or busy work. She is clear about the grading expectations and gives rubrics to every assignment. She won't baby you and lets students collaborate on their own. She also keeps the discussion focused so others cannot take up time with things that don't relate. We are all busy and she respected my time.
She got back me to quickly when I emailed with questions. It is an easy class if you show up and do the work.
Amazing Professor! She is my favorite and no extra work that doesn't matter. She sticks to the essays mainly because it's a writing class, so I didn't waste time on pointless assignments. Do the essays and you'll be fine.
