Key questions
Is this an easy A?
Students say you can pass with full effort, but an A takes heavy reading, drafts, and strict rubric work.
Online and in-person both reject easy-A expectations; in-person has more extreme harsh-grader complaints.
Is the course easy?
Heavy articles, annotations, and critical social topics keep intellectual demand high for a composition class.
Workload tone is similar across formats.
Is attendance flexible?
Attendance is almost always mandatory and participation is emphasized.
Mandatory attendance appears in nearly all in-person and most online notes.
Is this professor recommended?
Roughly half strongly recommend for learning; many others warn against her tone and grading.
Online leans slightly more constructive; a cluster of same-day in-person 1s pulls recommendation down.

Course format
Classroom format
High confidence · Best fit for Effort For Reward
Split between loved critical discussions with good feedback and harsh recent reviews calling her rude and unfair.
Main concern
Heavy reading/annotation load plus tough essay grading and occasional poor classroom tone.
What students said
“I used to hate writing but I really enjoyed this class.”
“she grades way too harshly and unfairly, and gives too much readings.”
“She grades too harshly you could write a god-tier essay and she would still give you a C.”
Remote format
Medium confidence · Best fit for Hardcore Learner
Online still demands real engagement and tough essay grading, with helpful feedback and revisions for those who invest.
Main concern
Lots of low-point busywork and tough essay standards without an easy A path.
What students said
“if your expecting an easy A from her, don't get your hopes up too high, she's pretty tough on grading and it took a lot of work to try and get an A.”
“I can see why people might downvote her; it's because her class requires actual engagement, participation, and thinking.”
“FOLLOW THE RUBRIC FOR A!!”
Exam style
Assessment is paper- and reading-driven with feedback and revisions more than high-stakes proctored exams.
Assessment risk
StudentFriendly
72/100
Low score means less forgiving assessment conditions.
In-class essays allow prep/outlines; major grade weight is papers and reading work, not classic exams.
“You are able to prep and make an outline for the in class essays, which is very helpful.”
“Only 3-4 papers for the semester and all based on really interesting topics.”
Online work focuses on essays, discussions, and related homework; revisions and rubrics matter.
“she gave me really good feedback on all three of my essays and what I needed to work on.”
“Her grading is fair and she offers revisions when the essays are hard.”
Student evidence
Top student voice
“Take her class only if you actually want to learn and implement skills, not just get an easy grade..”
“She gives extremely good feedback on writing.”
“assigns way too many articles to read and annotate just for them not to be worth many points”
“She grades too harshly you could write a god-tier essay and she would still give you a C.”
