Comment:

She has tons of experience in the field. Loves herself probably to much and really expresses her own view on EVERYTHING. Talk in class but don't disagree to much with her or she wont like you. other than that she is easy, tests are straight from the book and writing assignments are easy.

Comment:

She knows her shizzz but she's boring as hell!!!! She talks about herself and her experiences all class and doesn't respect anyone's opinion but her own. Is not leniant on absenses even in dier situations and has no respect for her students. She thinks shes god, and even if you try, she'll criticize you to death!!!!!!!

She's a tough grader, but you'll be a better writer because of it! Very passionate about journalism, hopes you feel the same. She may seem a little rough around the edges, but she's very friendly once you get to know her!

Comment:

Nice teacher, but oooh, is she rough on some stuff. It's a good class, but you will have to work to earn your A. Especially in the beginning of the semester. She's really passionate about social discrimination so be prepared to participate in class.

it was like a high school journalism refresher course and she teaches you small points about writing. she is helpful and if you do your work you should get an A easily. JUST DON'T TAKE MIDDLEBROOK AFTER HER BECAUSE IT WILL ROCK YOUR WORLD

She is a really good teacher. Lots of experience. Wrote for the NY Times and Newsday. Though it is not an easy course, she will improve your writing.
