Comment:

She's probably a great undergraduate professor. She's clear. That's great. However in a graduate level course, it's important for students to learn about applications to reading especially if we're going to be teaching. I felt like there wasn't any clear discussion, it was more of her talking about things that quite often were not related.

If I see that she's teaching a class, I will change around my whole schedule and come in at 8am to be in it. She's friendly and helpful, and she is one of those teachers that understands that you have a life outside the classroom. She's awesome.

Comment:

I was very excited about this class before I took it. She made it very enjoyable. She knows this subject and will explain everything until it is clear. The work is pretty easy because it all comes from a workbook that gives you the explanation right next to the question. Overall, she made it a good experience. Not hard, laid back, good professor.

Crazy and boring. Waste of time. Nothing helpful and interesting, just unnecessary announcements and nothing relative to how write essays. The question WHY? in your essay will be usual

UGH! This class (concepts in college composition) was a TOTAL waste of time. Brooks just did theory readings, the discussions dragged and she was very unclear about how she wanted the assignments to be done.

This is a very special professor with her special experience. I took her twice for English 1 and English 1.5. In every semester we had the opportunity to learn some special things with research papers. She is very easy going professor. She knows students problem. If you get chance, just get in her class. I am sure it won’t be mistaken. she is fair.
