She is very knowledgeable, but this class is very hard. She is definitely teaching this at a 300 or 400 level. Also, she seems to be almost bipolar. Most of the time she is nice, but she does snap at students fairly often. There are assignments due multiple times a week.

I took Dr. Addicott for a Shakespeare Lit class. We had to write 2 long papers over the semester, but she gives you 2-day extensions on every paper, and you can send 3 paragraphs into her before the due date, and she'll tell you what you need to fix. She made lectures fun and interesting, and I'm leaving with a love of Shakespeare thanks to her.

Dr. Addicott has a deep love for busy work. For example, on a paper requiring 6 sources, she decided to up the number to 17 to "expand our knowledge base". If you can manage the shear amount of time necessary to do the volume of busy work, she does grade fairly easily. However, just managing to proficiently produce the work is a challenge.

MUCH harder than 198 because your grade is contingent upon two huge papers. Dr. Addicott is a really caring and understanding person.

Dr. Addicott is a great professor. As long as you communicate about late work and absences, she is super empathetic and understanding. Read the syllabus and come to class and you'll be great. I've turned in plenty of assignments late and as long as I communicated with her she was very very very understanding.

I love Dr. A. She cares about and very much understands her students. She allows revisions on projects but is available to give feedback before submission. There's a chunk to read most days so know that and don't start it at 10 the night before. She uses ungrading so grades are based on the effort you put in. I would take her again in a heartbeat.

Dr. A is one of the kindest and most considerate professors out there, and I highly recommend taking her classes. There is a lot of homework you have to complete outside of class including papers, projects, and readings but as long as you put in the effort to finish everything mostly on time, you should have no problem earning an A.

Dr. Addicott was a very good professor, you can tell she really cares about her students and if you put in the work it's easy to do well. As far as the class goes, there were two major projects with not a ton of other work. She is always willing to review your work or give feedback as well.

Dr. A is one of the most caring and helpful professors I've had. She shows a clear interest in the success of her students and is more than willing to help. She's always cracking jokes to make class fun and loves participation. Her assignments are graded on a complete/incomplete scale so do the work and you'll get an easy A!

Dr. A is amazing and just a great professor over all. She's incredibly understanding and cares for her students. Her grading system is upgrading and not only does it make it very easy and clear on how to pass and get an A, it takes off the pressure of keeping a high number grade like other classes. I loved her class and would recommend for anyone.

Dr. A is INCREDIBLE. I was dreading taking an English class but she made it bearable, even fun! I enjoyed it so much that I'm auditing her class next semester. The class itself was definitely challenging, but Dr. A is beyond willing to help. It was difficult but overall, I'm so glad that I took 112 with her.

Dr. A is a very nice lady. If you get to know her and talk to her, she will love you. She is very accommodating as well. She clearly explains how we can do well on our assignments, and if you just do the homework, you'll get full points. She is very kind, and I would absolutely take another one of her classes. If you need English, take her.

Dr. A is an amazing professor, and taught such an easy class. I submitted most assignments late, and she would still give me full credit. If you talk during class, and write well you'll be fine. Lots of in-class assignments that can bring your grade down if you don't go, though. Final is easy, and most essays are much easier than highschool classes

Dr. A was so so so good to work with. I ended up taking an incomplete in her course due to personal issues, but she supported me through it, and made sure that I pass the class. The smaller assignments don't count towards much of your grade, so it's okay if you miss a few, but don't let them pile up.

I came in expecting a regular english teacher who was there just for the money, but that's her. She is a loving/caring teacher who has your best at heart. There is a good amount of writing/reading, but it is over topics YOU chose. There is outside work, but she helps immensely, is very forgiving, and its not hard at all. Favorite professor here.

Dr. A is an amazing professor who brings unique insights to Shakespeare's work. You must be in class to take notes, which are the entirety of the final exam. However, miss a few and you'll be fine. Just ask a classmate for notes. For essays, she really focuses on your own interpretation and gives you any outside sources she would want you to use.
