Comment:

She is a really sweet person who cares about her students. Her voice is low so you really have to listen but if you listen she will say "I care" She gives you every chance to get a good grade in her class but you have to "care" communicate and dont take her sarcasm seriously and she will be the best teacher eva!

She's an amazing professor. I loved her lectures and enjoyed how she made texts that I wasn't so interested in interesting. She's a very accessible professor and she does expect decent work from her student. You can work on your writing with her.

Comment:

Professor got hurt mid semester (unbeknownst to the class) and went MIA. After her return, she gave double the work to ensure the work on the syllabus was completed. Do not expect feedback or even direct answers to your questions. I believe this prof would be better in a classroom setting, not online.

Comment:

I had this professor for Intro to Literature. I did not enjoy this class at all because it barely was an introduction to what students should expect in their future English classes. The texts that were assigned were unrelatable to the title of the course. Also, very unprofessional and rude to students.

I took Professor Wadenpfuhl many many moons ago. I took her for Modern & Contemporary British Literature. I liked her. She was honest, fair and if I had a chance, I would take her class over again. Also, worked with her as a student assistant at the department. Overall a nice person.

I enjoyed the online Business Writing I took with Professor Wadenpfuhl. She takes notice to grammar and instructions, so please follow them if you want a good grade. Overall there is not a lot of work for her class and she is always available by appointment. I have to give her an A. Thank You.

Laura Wadenpfuhl disports herself with absolute integrity . . . and the only abhorrence in her heart is for ignorance.

Comment:

I took an online Shakespeare for Everyone class with Professor Wadenpfuhl during Fall 2014. The course material consisted of 4-5 Shakespeare books. For each book there were 3 discussion board and 1 quiz for each book. There are also 3 essays required. The course is really. I hate literature and passed with a B. Response in an satisfactory manner.

She is an awesome teacher. She is very adamant about what she wants but is very fair in grading. Do the homework do her work and you will be satisfied with your grades and yourself. It should not be a rating of the professor but a rating of yourself and how well you do. She is great in the classroom and prepared can you say the same?

this was an absolute waist of time. I learned nothing and the professor does not give feed back about your work. she thinks your in wrt101 and only mentions grammar errors nothing about the actual work submitted. take something else. this is not worth your time.

Took Stories of Immigration. All you have to do is follow the instructions, participate in the discussions, read and make sure you read, hand in work on time and the class is passable. So many negative reviews but people...school is work do you expect to just pass just because? LOL

Super feminist and hateful. Can't stand her attitude. I just sarcastically wished someone "good luck" taking her class.

Comment:

This rating is the realest you'll get. Many people will judge her by her strictness and not see that she is actually an amazing professor. Very strict and demands a lot, but if you do the readings, participate, and work hard on essays you will be fine. Hardest teacher I've ever had, but I was satisfied with my grade based on the work I put in!

Comment:

RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN, What a waste of tuition, this professor shouldn't be teaching let alone be near students, with no interest in reading her students papers I question the reasoning of requiring weekly papers to begin with? This professor isn't worth the effort of me filling in any other information, two words will suffice blatant _itch.

She knows her stuff and is a decent teacher, HOWEVER, i left that classroom upset every time it was over. I would ask questions and she would completely cut me off and make me feel so stupid about myself. Never helped. Lots of textbook work. Definitely Hard.

Horrible professor. I ignored these comments and decided to give her class a shot, what a huge mistake. If there are other professors that teach this course, PLEASE take them.

Very good professor. A lot of reading and essays--she will nit pick at your writing, so PROOF READ! She comes off a bit cold and detached, but in reality she is a good person. Do the assignments BE ON TIME, she uses blackboard A LOT, come to class prepared, and you'll be fine.

She seems intimidating at first, but she's actually a really good teacher. Don't be put off by her tough personality. If you do the reading and you make a real effort to do well, she'll help you out.
