She was THE BEST. I am a huge fan of literature (an English major) and it was so great to see her so passionate about the material she teaches. You will write a lot of literary reviews, she will drill the material into your head. She's a pretty easy grader but she knows what she wants in an essay! Would take her again, love her!!

You may think you're a great writer, but she will take you down a notch because she grades hard (with green ink!). Hardest unit was the poetry unit, so be sure to pay it attention and study. She's someone that I highly respect because she forced me to become a better writer. Would recommend to someone who's willing to take on a challenge!

She's rude and her grading style is extremely opinionated. Every time I would e-mail her with questions, she would respond with rude responses (as if I was a nuisance.) In every other writing class I have, I do well on my essays. But with her they don't measure up. Every point she takes off is based on her opinion and not the content of the essay.

I took the online comp ll class and will NEVER take anything taught by her again. She gives very little feedback and makes her instructions for each assignment so long that things become unclear and it is extremely easy to misunderstand her true intentions for the assignment. She is rude and her grading is very opinionated. Find a different prof.

The homework is not difficult, but I still missed points on every single one. She gives feedback, but it didn't necessarily help. Could be an ok/decent teacher in a classroom though.
