Comment:
We had to write about 10 papers, most classes wrote 3. If you didn't do it her way or forgot something, she would call you a delinquent in front of the class and make you say it with her. She would give vague directions but expect you to do an assignment exactly how she believed you should do it. She also ignored basic rules of English.

Comment:
I took her in Spring '18. She is really nice, will make fun of people. But you have to work for your grade. You read 2 books, 1 play and several poems. At the end of each unit you write an essay. Quizzes are open note, so show up to class and take notes. If you take notes, you will be fine. Go to her office, she will help you write your essay.

Comment:
A very nice person and has a lot of interesting stories, but please save yourself the suffering and DO NOT TAKE ANY OF HER CLASSES. Will make your life miserable. She makes you read a book like every week, with four page papers to go with it. EVERY WEEK. and a 10 page one at the end. She expects you to read her mind about the structure of essays.

Comment:
She's a disrespectful person. She demands reape t from her students yet has no problem belittling them in front of a full room of people. As an older student myself I would never allow my children to take a class with her. The way she speaks to people and lack of help is unacceptable.

Comment:
Took for 102, hated it. She always insulted your writing and wasn't helpful at fixing mistakes. You need to write to HER style, not any other way you've been taught. Show up and do the work and you'll pass. Unpleasant experience for me personally. Would recommend any other professor for 102.

Comment:
I took Mrs. Goffe-McNish for her English 102 summer class. She assigns a lot of papers and is very tough with the grading. Be prepared to take notes in her class if you do take her. Additionally, you should be prepared to read for homework. Don't take Mrs. Goffe-McNish because she is tough. If you have her for an English class, drop the class now.

Gives a lot of papers but honestly taught me how to write. If you didn't take her for 101 I would highly recommend not taking her for 102. If you skip class you won't pass. Kept the class laughing.

Very unclear about assignments, does not give very good explanations, very judgmental with her students, extremely tough grader. If you do not take her for 101, you will not pass her 102 class. I do not recommend.

Had to take english 101 this year, wasnt expecting the class to be particularly difficult because its a 101 class, how hard could it be? I was very wrong. She gives so much homework, especially papers. Dont expect to get help from her, shell just tell you to figure it out. One of the worst teachers ive ever had, dont know how i got an A.

She is a fantastic professor, BUT she can be very very intimidating at times. She expects you to revolve your entire life around her class and homework and does not accept excuses. She will call you out and make you feel terrible, but it is all for a good cause. She is a terrific teacher and you will succeed as long as you do the work.

I honestly can't see anyone getting an A or better unless you are an English major or gifted writer. She is a funny and very intelligent woman who can be quite intimidating at times. The class is very hard to balance with other classes in my opinion. She definitely knows what she is doing and does not condone any kind of tardiness. Best of luck.

She is a funny sweet lady, but when it comes to her class she is strict and rude, you cannot be more than 10 minutes late to sit in on the class, the textbook work is a lot usually 70-80 pages

She does not take any kind of attitude/excuses from anybody, does not take kindly to tardines, expects your life to essentially revolve around her essays and homework, and can get pretty offensive at times. She is not afraid to kick you out of class for the day if you show up even a minute late. If you like to be scared into doing HW take her class
