This lady is terrible! I think she was misinformed and thought she was teaching a 400 level class, because she wants everyone to know as much about Lit I as she does. She gives notes entirely to quick and does not review for test. I am an all A student and received a 54 on the first test. Unless you are just trying to fail, DO NOT TAKE THIS LADY!!!

I am currently taking her Am Lit class & am disgusted by my experience so far. She is way too demanding! She will not even review for the test & the tests are soo hard. She gives notes endlessly & will make you stay until the minute class is supposed to end. I'm disappointed that I was assigned this teacher! Do NOT take her unless Lit is your life!

Taking this teacher for the first time in college is a bad choice. She does not help you and expects you to know everything she knows. Do not take her class at all! If you expect her to be one on one with you do not take her! Avoid the class at all costs!

Her attendence policy is absolutely RIDICULOUS, she has the attititude of a high school student, and expects you to know everything that she does.

DO NOT TAKE HERE FOR EH 101!!! Her whole criteria is based off of a game!! Literally you earn XP and you don't know what your grade is!!!! You have to do "quests" and at first they are fairly easy, but at the end they become absolutely ridiculous! Please pick someone else! I wish I did!!!

This class was terrible for a lot of us that were in it. Would not take any other class with her. Would request independent study or find any other option available.

She is never helpful and broad about everything. She expects you to know every direction before it is told and if you ask her a question you catch a bad attitude.

Tanya Sasser is a terrible teacher. She does nothing but complain about her personal life, and her grading criteria is garbage. You cannot move on to new assignments until you meet her standard on the one before. Would NOT take her again. If she's your only option, take it next semester.

Shes rude, she picks very few out of the class that she likes, isnt specific about certain assignments, gives you lots and lots of busy work. half the class was treated like we were stupid. EH 101 is an easy class, but she made it impossible

I would recommend taking the class with a friend, in order to pass. The professor engages in maledictive behaviors!, using one's grades as leverage. The list of issues that plagues one's grades due to vagueness in grading style is beyond acceptable. This class uses classical EH101 info, but lacks development. Google the word "rhetoric"that'd be it.

Find another instructor. Disorganized and grading depends on her like or dislike of you. More like an IT or web design class than Lit, yet her own syllabus is illegible due to poor design. Use of social media platforms mandatory-unacceptable in an academic setting unrelated to those fields. Love English classes. First Lit class I have ever HATED.

Awful teacher dont take her. Don't take this lady's class the worst english teacher I ever had. Doesnt explan things well and lies about when sae says she likes your paper only to give people falling grades

NEVER TAKE HER! She is easily the worst and most unprofessional teacher I have ever had. She will fool you at the beginning of the semester by being kinda funny, but beware, she will turn into a monster by the end. She is very unreasonable and very difficult to work with. If she is your only option, then wait until next semester.

Absolutely worst person I have ever met in education. No matter what you do she will not let you get any extra credit and no matter how many times you submit an assignment its never good enough. Constant papers. Promises an easy A at the beginning of the class but you will be lucky to pass. Doesnt actually teacher you anything during the class.

Worst teacher I've had, my class is fully online and she doesn't post lectures or resources to help us succeed. All she does are post literary documents and have us take quizzes on the readings, and the quizzes are literally just "use examples and evidence from the text". I learned nothing from this class and I WOULD NOT recommend taking her class.

Not very specific with instructions or criticisms. Not good.

She is an AWFUL teacher. She gave me a 0 for going two lines over the limit. HIGHLY do NOT recommend her and she doesnt even deserve a job here.

I did not have a good experience with her.

She was very rude. I have to retake the class all because she failed one of my papers. The reasoning for the failed essay was not even by the rubric. She was hard to talk to. I do not think anyone should take any of her classes. She needs to learn how to talk to people.

If youre searching this to find if Sasser is a good teacher... ill tell you right now she is AWFUL. Do not take her class if you want to succeed. She makes you feel stupid and brings politics and very unprofessional ideas into the classroom. Very strict grader and doesnt help you at all.

I dropped the class after two weeks. The first thing she says about the class is that you have to spend between 7 and 12 hours PER WEEK in order to succeed in her class. The craziest part is that she is right. Crazy amount of homework to do weekly, tough to communicate with, and really strict. DO NOT EVER TAKE HER

This professor literally does the most. And i mean that in every bad way possible. Not sure how any of the things we do applies to the curriculum. Very very tough grader. Never understanding that her students have real world problems and that our lives dont revolve around an english class.

Dont waist your time. Its one thing to be a good student with a good teacher but the last thing you want to do is be a good student with a bad teacher. She is rude, not understanding , and gives Terrible advice.

Please dont take her. First B in 2 years of college. All because I didnt do my final exactly how she wanted (gave me a 60). Also gave me a 13/50 on a bibliography... hows that even possible?

WORST professor Ive ever had. She gave me a 0 on a 1500 word essay because I didnt do the self assessment the way she liked. You have to do everything her way or its a 0. We werent even a month into the semester and almost 50% of the class already dropped.

HARD and RUDE. She grades hard and wants everything to be exactly how she says it has to be. Instructions are never clear. If you have her, may your spirts, guides, God/s, accompany you. Stay safe .

This was the worst class of my life she is horrible!!!!! Im letting yall know please dont take this class. I have never failed so bad in my life.

Never take this class. It's extremely fast paced and stressful. It's caused me to slack in other classes because of the amount of work she assigns and that's not who I am as a student. Her class makes me feel like failure. Avoid at all cost for your own mental health.

She grades so hard. I completed a speech and got a 0/100 because I simply forgot to do peer reviews. She doesn't care if you complete an assignment, if you don't do it exactly how she says you will get a 0. Will never take her again.

Do not recommend. She has her days where she is tolerable but not often. Be prepared for tons of homework. If anything you turn in isn't EXACTLY how she wants it, good luck. I've seen her give others 0s for reasons other than the literal work. Which is ridiculous.

She gives terrible feedback. One of my papers had the worst feedback I have ever had in my School career high school included. She is unapproachable due to her attitude. If you dont go by her way of things you will fail

She cares about the students and wants them to succeed, but the load of the work is extremely strenuous. I'm always on top of my work and do well as a result, but I had a very hard time keeping up with the work load in this class and keeping the A. Majority of the work is hand written. Lots of stuff to print.

I actually took this class in 2019 and only recently decided to review to help other students. DO NOT take Sasser's classes. I had her for both speech and English and failed both because if your work is not just so, she will straight up give you a 0. I would finish work day of and spend until the due date begging for advice that I never got.

Professor Sasser grades assignments based on what she deems is valid, even with a topic as subjective as literature, and she has no leniency. I was given a 0 on the allegory for snow in a poem because it did not match her interpretation. I had more assignments, per week, in her class alone than I did in my other four classes combined (Fall 2020).

This class constantly puts me on the edge of tears. I spends hours on 20 point assignments because the professor forces them to spend hours of their time analyzing, inspecting, and annotating each piece of literature (which can span from 5-20 pages) EVERY TWO DAYS. My mental health has declined since taking this class. AVOID THIS PROF!

The worst professor I've had at JSU.She barely explains how she will grade anything &on top of that she has the class set up as a GAME.She treats you like a child instead of an adult. Assigns 20+ pgs a week often and nitpicks the grading.I'd rather not graduate than take her again. Save yourself the pain and stress. DO NOT TAKE HER!!

Terrible professor gives zeros for the smallest thing overall -12/100

Horrible teacher if you take her drop the class immediately

Please don't take this course, you will regret it! The instructions for assignments are very complicated and difficult to understand, and she will give you a zero even if you are trying (she does not give partial credit).

The most rude and unpleasant professor I have ever had on campus. She thinks of herself as smart and witty when she is the actual opposite. She's has bias in everything. If she gives you an improper grade and you inform her, she will not back down and still say she is right. She seems very uninformed about what she is teaching. A literal nightmare.

Never and ever take class of this professor. She gives lots of assignment that you can ever imagine and she don't speak good to students and she never appreciate your hard work. She even you will do good she will always say it is bad.

I do not even have words. She failed me because I missed class because I had covid. Also never warned nor told me that excused absences did not matter. If you are out, you fail, with no warning. GOOD LUCK.

Delores Umbridge

She is giving 1950s. Class is like a movie where the girls wear dresses and have those shoes with ruffle socks. She should think about retiring as it is clear she hates us.

She is evil. All these low ratings you need to believe them.

She has a huge ego that gets in the way of her teaching.

BEE AWWCH

My GPA was 4.0 in the first semester, and in the second semester, I passed all my classes with an A grade. However, I received a zero on one of my major assignments. The reason for the zero was that I didn't submit my assignment folder, even though it wasn't required. We had to write all our essays on paper by hand and submit them in a folder.

If you are interested in cosplaying the 1950s then take her. You have to use pen and paper for your essays. Then she loses your folders and your parents make you move home when you make a C. Fun times.

worst professor at jsu, she literally makes no sense and is migraine inducing. i would rather pass away then take her again.

She doesn't explain anything, gives you so many assignments and there always due at 11am so you have no time especially with taking other classes, not understanding about anything and over all just throws stuff at you.

This professor is the absolute worst of the worst. She gives little to no description of why someone will receive a certain grade on a paper. It is evident that she has zero empathy for her students and will do everything in her power to make your English class a nightmare. Would give a worse rating if I could.

RatemyProfessor should give us choices such as UNORGANIZED, DISRESPECTFUL, EGOTISTICAL so that we can explain better what the professor is really life. I would give a worse rating if possible, by far the worst of the worst teachers I have ever had.

Sometimes I wouldn't wear a seatbelt when I was driving to this class in hopes Jesus would spare me from her egotistical ranting.

Mrs. Sasser was extremely strict grader. She was hard to get along with and she ranted a lot. If you miss class, you will lose points. This class was a lot of busy work which I didn't feel improved my writing skills. She was really not the best.

This professor is a Karen that needs to retire. She isn't even nice if your nice to her, the most negative professor I have had, ever.

Don't take her unless you like being treated like a kindegardner!
