Comment:

Okay so I am a business student , and I REALLY enjoyed this class at first, but later as the course went on it got more boring and the professor became more judgmental. She is a very nice lady but very opinionated and very set on her ways. She expected us to read 6 books this semester... which I read non of but still passed with good grades.

She is seriously one of the best professors at Pace. She is soft spoken but her words seriously penetrate deeply. She is wise beyond words and is amazing at opening the class for discussion and opening your mind overall. She is indeed passionate, you'll leave every class feeling different from how you came in

Comment:

She is a wise woman and I loved her creative fiction class. Even though she does take things very personally, she is a great teacher, easy grading, easy assignments. Don't take her if you don't have an open mind about things, because she is very opinionated for sure.

Comment:

I had her for African Literature. I liked her but when she explains the assignments it's slightly unclear. You never really know what she wants out of your papers sometimes. But she is a wonderful person and teaches you a lot.

Please take her class if you are looking for someone who know's what they're talking about and is not into lecturing. She is very helpful and often will consult with you one on one to work on your writing. She appreciates writing styles and allows a stress free environment. Super wise. love her, only thing is. most of her courses are on fridays :(

Comment:

I'm still in this class, however I would tell anyone to take it. She is a brilliant woman (Columbia grad) and is so wise! She may seem very Afro-centric, but the class is called Literature of African People. No hw, only 1 paper, midterm, and final. I learned so much already, and the class isn't over. Very opinionated,but I still love her!

Comment:

Has a refreshing unorthodox approach to teaching which can seem strange and almost loony to many people. But if you open mind and have a little patience, 80% of what she says makes all the sense in the world. It can be a tedious learning process but hey, what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. Persistence builds character!

Comment:

Went to the first class then dropped it, if that's any indication. She focuses mainly on memoir and political writing - NOT fiction. If that's what you want to learn, get out now. This professor is COMPLETELY crazy.

Comment:

Odd for a Creative writing: Fiction class considering she talks a lot about politics. Not what I expected but she seems to genuinely enjoy writing and teaching. Though she seems a little crazy (she says no texting because it kills people). Also one of the required readings is nonfiction, and we're doing Obama later. Not very fiction oriented...

Comment:

This woman came THIRTY MINUTES LATE to my three hour class and claimed she had to revamp her entire plan for the day due to a news report she'd heard that morning. What the heck? She's utterly insane. Teaches more about politics than anything remotely related to English. I walked out of the class with a massive migraine.

Comment:

Great professor. She has that love her or hate her type of personality. Very helpful and understanding but she is an old lady. Like our grandma's age so she does have her opinions about our lifestyles and such. Eccentric, spiritual, looks at the moon and stars a lot, talks about Nigeria a lot, has no structure to teaching. Is in a world all her own

Comment:

She is not a horrible person but I do not recommend her to serious Christians and patriots. After taking her TWICE,it is obvious that her hatred for Christianity and America has become pure indoctrination in her courses. She doesn't make you think b/c she doesn't encourage different point of views. Her view is the only one that is correct.

Comment:

Listen. Bottom Line is she is the best professor anyone will ever have. Some of yall dont like her becasue yall dont understand life. Haters. She makes you think. Yall dont like her cause you wont things to be handed to you. She teaches you about world issues that relate to the text. Who doesnt want to know about those things. Open your brains.

Comment:

Horrible!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Did not teach me a damn thing. All she talks about is how potato chips are the devil or about people getting killed or robbed or losing their homes. Most depressing class I've ever had. Choice of literature was completely stupid. I'm going to complain to the chair about her.

This professor is very interesting. You'll learn so much about life and literature by taking her class. The assignments are not difficult. If you do you work, you'll be fine.
