She is so odd-> One moment she's happy and then another moment, she's mad. Other than that, all you do in her class is write so if you don't like writing, don't take the class. If you want an A in her class, make sure you don't make her raise her red pen for anything when she's reviewing your essays.

Ms. Vedula is a good teacher, interested in what she teaches, not that hard if you are careful in your writing. Just don't make mistakes on your essays for grammar or spelling, and you'll make an A on the essay. The one thing is she DOES have favorites and can be a little unapproachable if you aren't one of them. I would take her again.

If you cannot pass her class, you should not be in college. Do the work, follow the rubric, AND SHOW UP TO CLASS. My section has a plethora of lazy people with no accountability and they are failing as a result, as they should! Many of the negative comments here show poor grammar and composition. They were obviously looking for an automatic "A."

If I could rate a 0, I would. This is the worst professor I've ever encountered in my life. She is so incredibly disrespectful and she is not cooperative whatsoever. She deducted points for an assignment that SHE misworded, and never explains why it is wrong. She has been unwilling to change my grade due to a support issue, she just sucks.

Honestly this professor was pretty average. She worked with me when I needed help and even called me for a meeting which was very nice. She is very simple so if you do what is asked she will grade you well!

She's very passive aggressive with everything, her words and how she represents her self. Just from a few simple emails back and fourth she's some how manage to give me 4 mental breakdowns. Its just the way she speaks makes me feel as if all of my work was for nothing, and the could be me being sensitive. But I'm sure others feel the same way.

Her class was okay. She is very passive aggressive and makes unnecessary comments. Her work isn't super hard and as long as you follow the criteria, you'll get a decent grade. For some reason, I don't know if it's just me, but she always tries to find some error in your work like? Just tell me I did good and keep it going.. haha. Not the best.

Very passive-aggressive and sarcastic. Made rude and insensitive jokes/comments. I do not recommend taking her. Graded very hard and does not believe in A's. Does not give good feedback on work so you will never know where you lost points. The grade depends on three essays.

This professor is very rude and makes unnecessary comments. She doesn't grade based on a rubric and she does not give proper feedback. She always makes passive-aggressive comments and complains about her classes. If you want to have a good semester at Gwinnett Tech, I do not recommend this professor.

This professor is always making complaints about her work loads and using it as an excuse for incorrect/late grading. She does not give any rubric for any assignments and gives very random and unhelpful comments when graded. She can make really rude comments towards students in class, and is sarcastic in an unfunny way. I do not recommend her.

She's a very tough grader and does not provide good feedback on essays. All three essays make up 80% of our total grade. She is also rude to some students and class is very draining. For your own mental health, don't take her.

Like many of the previous reviews, she doesn't teach, she just grades. Essay drafts are meant to be critiqued on grammar and content however, she manages to do neither. Her feedback in drafts are minimal and vague, so when your writing the final essay, you don't have a good idea of what to fix and work on. Then she proceeds to give you a C or a B.

ABSOLUTELY AWFUL..... I feel she should look on grade my professor and see what is said about her and maybe she would change her ways of teaching. Better yet GTC should look on here and see what students are saying and make some changes.

Tough grader with unclear feedback. Incorporate Unstuck AI alongside the textbook to prepare for the essays, which make up most of the grade. Attendance is mandatory, so be prepared to engage despite the professor's passive-aggressive style.

Good professor. Don't let the negative reviews scare you. She is tough but fair. If you show up on time with a decent attitude you will have no problems. She cares about her craft which is why she is not an easy professor. If you attend class and participate she literally tells you what to fix on essays. She's extremely professional.

She is very inconsiderate and her grading rubric makes zero sense. I had a thesis proposal get graded as much as an essay. As well as I made a mistake because I misunderstood directions and she gave an automatic 0 with no chance to make it right.
