She doesn't do good lectures. When she writes on the board it looks like chicken scratch and is extremely hard to read. Every other word out of her mouth when she is talking about the text is "I think" "I'm not sure" and so forth. I'm not sure she knew any of what she taught for certain.

She really comes across as ill-informed at times when she lectures. She says "I"m not sure..." or "I think?" and has to confirm by Wikipedia. She forgets her notes often and can seem really rude if you ask her for help outside. She probably didn't mean it, but I felt like I was "bothering" her. Tests are from the study guide though.

Professor Todd was so nice and caring. While there are a few essays and whatnot, each week you do a certain project that helps build-up to the next project, making it easier. She gives you plenty of time and resources to complete the assignments. If you aren't a good essay writer, this might be difficult.

Professor Todd is a very good English professor. We have three main papers throughout the semester that all build on each other like one assignment and these make up the bulk of your grade. The only downside is she takes it pretty serious for a gen-ed, but she is very great at helping and very great at teaching.

Mrs. Todd is a great teacher. She's an extremely fair grader and as long as she sees you putting in time and thought, you'll do well. All we had to do was read a little text, take a small quiz over it, and do a discussion board. There were three main paper assignments that all build on each other, but they were pretty easy as well.

I really enjoyed taking Prof Todd for English 1310, she is a really fair grader and cares about her students. She can be lenient on deadlines as long as you speak with her, not a ton of work but does require participation in discussion boards and one big paper at the end of semester. Really enjoyed this professor!

Professor Todd is a great teacher. The lectures can be a little boring as she will talk until the last minute and you can only miss 2 classes before being penalized. However the work is broken down weekly so nothing is too overwhelming and she's very clear with her instructions.

Professor Todd was awesome. She's caring and funny. We had a couple pretty hefty writing assignments, but the in-class preparations we did for them left me feeling very capable of completing them. We did two rounds of revisions for every big assignment we turned in, which definitely helped me get a better grade. I never used the textbook.

I am a 4.0 student who has published a book and who has never gotten below a 90 on an essay or paper. For my final paper she gave me a failing grade. She doesn't actually teach, she just hands you stories and tells you to read them, then grades your essays on whatever she feels like grading them about. She has no clue what she is doing.

This class was taken online and was fairly time intensive. I spent easily 7-10 hours a week on this class alone. It should be known I wrote a lot and was very thorough with the material, but in the end, the grade shows. She is very understanding and pushed our writing back a little. Follow the rubric and listen; this class will take adaptation (:

I took this as an online class. She was a great professor and often checked in with students to see how they were doing and if they understood the assignments. Most work for this class is discussion posts and short, easy quizzes. However, you will have a final paper. There isn't a required textbook, but you do have to read two novels.

You write a few papers, but she does a great job taking you through it all. Provides help if you reach out and is very understanding as long as you are open and honest and transparent she will work with you.

Love her! She is very flexible when the class needs extra time depending on the reasoning for drafts. I am a theatre student with rehearsals and she helped me with time constraints on the persuasive essay. Definitely lots of writing but that's just how it is with English classes. Fairly decent grader, just do what she asks on the rubric. CHOOSE HER

I was only a point and a half away from a C and she refused to allow me to do extra credit, and did not round up final grades like all my other professors did.

You only have 4 main grades, and you have to do good on all, or your grade will be brought down severely. She also said she lets you pick grading policy and attendance, but do not get excited; she does not.

Great BookTok and Social Media class. In this class, we read books, have discussions about them, and write about them. You have two projects that are very interactive, and the entire environment is very fun. We read 5 books in total and they were all very engaging.

Have taken 2 of her classes and she is AMAZING. Allows you to help make the syllabus (including attendance policies) and is super understanding and caring. You might not like all of the books but try to read them because the in-class discussions are interesting and entertaining. Its easy to pass just pay attention and participate.

Professor Todd is one of the kindest teachers I have ever had, and the class was very simple. It was just 3 major projects all year, but she gave us plenty of time to do each of them. I would take this class if you have the chance!
