I had Jill for IBest along with Interpersonal Communications. She is a very good professor and knows her stuff. She is strict but if you do what she tells you to do and do the reading, her class is a lot of fun. Attendance isn't mandatory but will hurt your grade if you miss too many classes. I would love to take her class again. I learned alot!

Jill is an excellent English Professor she really knows her stuff. She's very strict on her grading policy and she is a stickler for attendance. If you make the effort and show up everyday you can get an A no problem. A lot, a lot, a lot of writing, but it's worth it.

Jill is a wonderful teacher who truly knows what she is talking about. She is an amazing teacher, but does not give out a grade you don't deserve. She is very helpful and willing to work with you on every assignment. You do have to read some sections from the books but it is helpful and not long.

Amazing teacher and so kind. She graded what the paper deserved, but she was extremely accessible if you wanted help and encouraged it several times. She was very clear about her expectations and would even write you a letter about your paper if submitted on time. She takes due dates extremely seriously and follows her given schedule religiously.

Jill is honestly a good teacher, she really cares about improving her student's skills in English, and with her long history in the field, she knows a lot of Right-things-to-do, which makes her very reliable. However, she is SUPER STINGY about your assigned readings, and she's quick to judge. Recommend only to English majors who cares.

Jill is very helpful and truly wants to see you succeed. The class is graded on 5 discussion posts, participation, and 2 papers. This class has a lot of assigned reading (as expected from any literature class). She is great at helping you have a deeper understanding of the text and relating it to modern life.

Amazing lady, loves to help, but will give you the grade you deserve. Definitely helps to actively participate, she gives help to those who deserve it and "earn" her time. You look like you are trying, she will do her best to make sure you pass. Does not tolerate slackers. She has stacks of degrees... pay attention to her, makes it worth it.

You will do a lot of reading in this class, short stories, and a novel. She expects you to attend each class. She really cares about the students and you can tell she wants you to do well. As long as you do the reading and assignments on time, you should have no problem. She gives amazing feedback on papers too.

Jill Darley-Vanis is and incredible professor; one of my favorites! She truly opened my eyes to look past grammar issues and focus on the heart of someone's writing. Her English 101 class is a great foundation for all future college classes. She challenges and expands you in your writing skills in a very healthy way. I highly recommend her class!

Comment:

I loved taking Jill's class. I'm normally a very quite person in class, but she was engaging enough to make me want to participate. If you take her for 101, be prepared to do work. You can't just slack off and expect to get a good grade. But she's fair and will help you as much as possible.
