This teacher is SUPER! I know some people were critical b/c she was a little behind on grades, but that was only b/c she just had a baby, so people, cut her some slack! She was very nice and ALWAYS there to help if you ever needed. She does respond fast to emails, and I thought she did a good job. I would HIGHLY recommend taking any class she teaches.

I took this teacher for a web class in the spring. I always take web classes since my major is all online and have never had this much trouble in a class.
The first couple of weeks was crazy and nobody knew how to turn in the assignment or even what to do since she did not post anything right away. As time went on she would have things posted and the due date and would give you almost a week to work on the assignment. Her assignments were not specific at all and did not tell you everything you need to include and i can not read minds.
Then when she finally got the assignments graded like 1 month before the semester ended, it did not help at all. She decided to be far and let us fix the mistakes and a month after the semester ended she still does not have the grades in.
This teacher was so unorganized and by far the worst online teacher ever. I would not recommend her at all.

This was a web course, and is by far the WORST online class I have ever taken.
She was actually pregnant this semester, but that does not really give her an excuse to be behind on grading for assignments that were turned in two months ago.
We always had an assignment due each Sunday by midnight but she never graded these until a few months after the deadline. There were assignments posted up at the last minute and was not announced on Blackboard which caused a lot of confusion for the class. I had to email her numerous times before she finally replied.
She said that she should be as fair as possible on grading, but I still feel like her grading is too harsh.
Personally, if writing is not your thing, DO NOT take her.

Brilliant teacher! She was fun and informative as well as understanding. She very clearly knew her stuff (granted it was the English language, but still). She made the class enjoyable and exciting, and that's a hard thing to accomplish with English. If at all possible, take ANY class she instructs.
