She made this class super entertaining and always had students laughing. If you have any questions, she is always willing to clarify. Her grading isn't too harsh, either. If you are absent, all you have to do is show proof of where you were and you can easily make up the missed assignment.

Very helpful and engaging. She is not strict and will work with you. She makes sure everyone is on the same page the whole way through and makes sure you are ready for the next level. I would recommend her.

She is really funny and relates to your generation. You must go to class if you want to pass. She will cut you if you miss too much. She is also very caring, She cares about her students and will do her best to help. Most essays are about 5-8 pages long (double-spaced).

I look forward to going to her class the most. If you are someone who enjoys writing, I really recommend taking her class. You have four major papers during the course, one of them being the final. She puts up assignments on canvas weeks ahead of time and really helps you understand what is expected of you. Great professor

Prof. Almond was very funny and kept your attention while in class. There was 4 papers 3 of them were 5-7 pages and the last one was 7-10 pages. The papers weren't difficult to write considering she encourages you add pictures (excellent space suckers). Also, make sure you show up to class, she does a great job of jogging your brain during class.

Prof Almond is one of the best teachers I've ever had. The classwork isn't hard and the papers she assigned weren't too challenging either. She is hilarious and keeps the class awake with the things she says. She's always eager to offer help. She's a easy grader, but showing up to class is mandatory and participating is key in this class.

Professor Almond is the best teacher I have ever had! She is caring and willing to work with you in order for you to be successful. The papers she assigns are easy, and the class work really helps you understand the format of the paper you and expected to write. She is extremely relatable and I would suggest for anyone taking ENC1102 to get her.

My favorite professor so far, by far!

Professor Almond was a pretty tough grader, but if I had to I would probably take her again.

Good fair and interesting! A little slow on the return of grades but I can live with it. Classes were interesting. However, you better understand MLA style and how to put papers together or you are doomed. Good class if you like writing.

Great professor!!! Hope I can take her for ENC2. Very understanding if you communicate with her, Show up to class, and give it your all and you will pass!! Hilarious!!! Classroom topics were the BEST!! Keeps you entertained!!! :)

She was good. very slow on grading. I would always get marked for essays and the errors that I was making. Due to het being slow on grading, I couldn't read the feed back to make my future essays better because they'll never be graded till the end of the semester.

Best professor ever. She can be tough on you but she only does it because she does care. I took her 8 am class and it was still amazing.

Professor Almond is amazing. Skipping class is not an option. Willing to help if you ask for it. Would definitely take again.

Professor Almond was great! I took a mini semester of 6 weeks with her which was a little challenging with all of the papers, but is ultimately a good class. As long as you take note of how to write, its an easy A. She's also hilarious! I loved her humor

She was the best English I've ever had, she makes you write on interesting things and her topics are very flexible so that you can write about what you like. Little class work and she actually cares about you passing the class. Would recommend all the way.

I took her for a mini semester at 8 am. She is funny and sassy. She is a very easy grader. Just do what she tells you to do and you will get a good grade. It is very important to actually go to class. We had assignments due during the class period a lot of times. They were easy. So just show up, do the work and you will pass. Highly recommend

Professor Almond is just wonderful!! She is fun and really enjoys teaching! I would take her class again in a heartbeat.

Great professor, she is a tough grader, but if you show up to class she will make sure you do better next time, a few of online work but overall it was an easy class.

For the most part, she lets you write about what your interested in, or at least gives you options to choose from. A freedom I believe is important in a writing class. As long as you do all the writing assignments (classwork doesn't matter as much) and don't miss any (like I did) you should get an A.

This is a pretty easy English class, with only 3 major papers. She is an easy grader, but she doesn't leave any feedback on papers and takes a while to get them back to you. She is hilarious, so that makes it easier to show up to such an early class.

Professor Almond is an amazing English teacher. She really tries to help you understand different types of writing and how to best approach and write each paper. English is not my strong suit, but she is super helpful and gives great lectures. She gets right to the point and does not drag everything on forever. I would recommend taking her for sure

Professor Almond was an amazing professor! She is so funny and makes class very interesting. I was always excited to go to her class. She gives you a lot of freedom when it comes to writing papers. No in-class tests or quizzes. Paper length isn't crazy either. Only 2 or 3 online grammar quizzes. I will be taking her for ENC1102, highly recommend!

She not only makes the class interesting with her fun personality but gives amazing lectures. The assignments are straightforward if you show up to class. Definitely one of the best professors at Santa Fe!

Very easy class if you just follow all her instructions for each paper. She gives assignments based on the type of essay you will write that week. Attendance is a grade so if you show up to every class, thats an easy grade. She is very good at making sure you understand the type of essay you will write. 10/10 recommend.

Easy A, Professor Almond is very caring and work with her isn't too intense. You only have about four papers the entire semester, one for each style of writing she teaches. She is very good at explaining things and genuinely wants you to succeed. I would take her again!

This is the second semester I take Professor almond! She is great & always willing to help. Highly recommend her. Dont understand the people saying you get bad grades if she doesnt like you, put in the effort & you will see change.

She is an amazing professor. She is fun and even lets you out of class early when you finish the agenda for the day. She teaches great and is easy to reach. She's a great teacher and I'd recommend her to anyone.

Such a great professor. If you just follow her guidelines on how to put together an essay, you will do just fine. Just plan to go to every class to absorb as much as you can, because she gives great pointers in class. Material is not hard at all, no presentations either. She does cut people off when they ask what she calls a duh question.

Professor Almond is the best teacher you can take for ENC1101! I anticipated this class to be difficult but it was soo easy I ended with a 99%!! there is a lot of papers but she is very clear on what she wants & gives great feedback. shes easy to accommodate with & wants everyone to pass!! she grades attendance, so make sure to show up. take her!!

she's amazing !! she's always there for you if you have any questions. Honestly a few papers but for summer B it felt like 2 papers every week with grammar assignments but it wasn't hard. just don't forget the due dates and make sure you submitted your work !!

Amazing teacher very understanding with school and personal life

Easy grader but didn't know any of my grades until the semester was over. She is very understanding of absences. The class can get extremely boring and repetitive at times.

It is a writing class so of course, you have to write multiple papers during the semester but I personally had no problem with them. She goes over everything in class and even helps you outline your paper. Very nice lady and helpful whenever you don't understand something.

Shes nice and straight forward. Doesnt lecture forever, gives the info you need and lets you go after the assignment. Read the pages she assigns or youll be lost and she WILL sit in silence until someone gives an answer to her question. Theres only like 5 reading pages a week. Overall a great teacher.

Took this professor for ENC1102. She is awesome and makes class interesting. She is a tough grader Id say, but overall would recommend.

Amazing! Really nice, listens to questions, and responds with useful feedback. Made class participation comfortable and often fun. Accessible outside of class, and even a year after taking the class, she responds to emails quickly and shows she cares.

Professor Almond is a really great teacher, and it is clear she genuinely cares about her students. For me, the class was very direct and not difficult to pass. She can come off as intimidating at first, but is friendly when you have a question and participate in class. I will say that she enters grades pretty slowly compared to other teachers.

She's super nice and a good person. I looked forward to going to her class. Lots of innovative ways to learn basic writing styles. I improved my skills. I would love to be friends with her in real life; a genuinely cool person. She reads rough drafts and gives good feedback. The workload is more than manageable. The atmosphere is accepting.

She is very patient when students ask questions. She makes sure that her students are aware of what to do that week. She is very straightforward and and doesn't make you nervous by her homework and standards. Sometimes, she will make the class fun to lighten the mood and make it interesting. I recommend taking her class.

Professor Almond wasn't the greatest teacher I've ever had but she wasn't the worst either. She's a great English professor, her personality just threw me off a couple of times. She taught me a lot and I wouldn't be upset if I had her again. Overall, she's good at her job, so don't let her personality throw you off

A lot of in-class work, not much homework other than an essay every couple of weeks. Good teacher and a fun class to be in. Often cut us out of class early.

Professor Almond was a great teacher, but she never graded anything. My final grade was put in, but I don't know how I ended up with that. Professor Almond is a great person and allows you to work in groups a majority of the time. I would highly recommend staying after class to talk with her. She gives great life and writing advice.

Professor Almond is overall a great professor; she gives descriptive instructions for your papers. There is a lot of writing and reading in this class.

Does not grade until the last week of classes. Homework is only classwork. Group projects!! Textbook is used in class and you read it and show her your diagnostic and she lets you leave class when you're done. She says if you email her like once a month and say you dont feel like coming to class she will let you. Super easy. Take her it will save u

Professor Almond is a great professor. She explains things in a clear and simple way. She does assign more than 2 papers but she instructs them in an easy manner. Attendance is mandatory but her class is enjoyable so it's not a hassle. One thing is she does grade late so make sure you're putting in the effort.

She is an amazing professor. If you attend all of her classes and pay attention, everything else is easy. She is not a tough grader and is very welcoming when you ask her questions.

Although this class is gonna make you write papers pretty much like every other week, this class will definitely humble you. The professor is super nice and very understanding. She's really big on communication! She always says if you don't tell her she can't help you. Easy "A" just make sure you communicate and attend the class everyday.

If you want to get an easy A, this would be the class. She is an easy grader but waits till the last day of the semester to put most of the grades in. You will have to attend the classes because she gives in-class assignments that you don't want to miss. But overall a good teacher who knows the material and can teach it properly.

Ms. Almond was a great English teacher for me. While she is kind of snappy or can come off as rude, she really just wants you to do well. Try to answer her questions in class because it will help you remember certain things. She allows you to text her which is really nice if you want help when writing. A total of 4 big essays which was alright.

I don't get the negative reviews on the professor waiting for an answer in class. Participating in class is what helps you remember certain concepts for the essays. Very easy grader and even bumped up my grade in the class in the end. Even offers fun extra credit that can add +10 percentage points per essay. 4 stars tho cus takes forever to grade.

Easy class but she takes a long time to grade but is an easy grader

Professor Almond is honestly not bad at all. She does take a long time to grade assignments. 4 total papers and not much work.
