Pretty easy class, all you gotta do to pass is participate and do the essays, definitely take advantage of her office hours, she will review your entire essay and give you feed back on it, if you use her feedback you will get an A

Comment:

Very nice professor & gave minimal homework. Usually has a daily activity that counts as a "participation grade" worth 10% of your grade, so you'll need to be there. She's a bit of a tough grader, but if you go to her office hours for help, you'll most likely do well. She gives 4 total essays & one final in class essay. You need books for hw.

Comment:

This teacher was extremely unprofessional. She came to class late multiple times and missed multiple classes. In 2018 this teacher states she doesn't use internet service so she will not email you back or post grades throughout the semester. Her class time is extremely unorganized and the teacher is awful at keeping the class conversation going.

Comment:

Very sweet professor. Her lectures come in handy and they aren't boring because she always finds a way to connect them to her personal life. As far as work goes, the essays are what you need to focus on and I strongly advise you to go to her office hours (you get the grade you work for). Her home work assignments are easy. One need 1/2 books.

She explains very well what she expects from her students. There are never any surprises. The homework is very light. If you attend all her classes the class will be not be hard.

Comment:

Prof Wallace is an extremely nice professor but you don't learn as much as you probably want or need to. I took her for 101 and 103 and the courses are exactly the same. There are four essays, a few homework reading assignments from the textbooks, and one discussion in the class. She is an easy teacher that cares about her students, and is easy.

Comment:

Professor Wallace was one of the best Professors I have had at COC. She is very kind, and the class feels easy going because of her personality. I'm sure everyone has problems, but she came to school every day with a genuine smile. She grades on 4 essays and participation, and there are text book readings and homework which are easy.

Comment:

shes caring for her students, genuinely wants you to succeed. i will say pointless textbook readings that were only for class participation. Only got graded on 3 essays, never saw my grades for anything else. Hands back papers quiet late but overall I would take her again. she does grade on participation in class as well.

Comment:

Lisa is very nice and does make herself available outside of class to read over essay rough drafts. However, I did not care for her teaching style, and her directions/expectations for the essays were vague. I had to ask many clarification questions because I was often confused on what to do. Also, there are pointless readings in the textbook.

Professor Wallace is very caring and you can tell she cares about her students. Gives good feedback and proper guideline for a good grade. Shes passive aggressive at times which leads to students not respecting her as much as they should

Comment:

She is super nice, and the class is easy. I wouldn't have shown up if it were for the fact you get graded on participation. i got a B though because she only grades on essays. So, it is an easy class, but i still got a B grade, make sense?

Loved her English class. Very caring and funny, would definitely recommend anyone to take her. She can be a little bit of a tough grader but if you do all your work in her class you'll get a good grade. Don't slack off and you'll be fine.

Comment:

Lisa is a very kind person but doesn't offer good feedback on the 4 essays you have if you go in to her office hours. She's a tough grader but there aren't any tests or quizzes except for the final. There's a lot of reading and in class discussions. Participation is graded. She was very nice but really makes you work hard for a decent grade.

Nicest woman to ever walk the planet. No tests. Books are needed for homework assignments. You'll be doing a lot of writing. Final exam was 5 questions on the analyzation of an article.

I enjoyed this class and Professor Wallace. I have always done well in english and she graded my essays quite hard. I received a B and english is one of my best subjects. Her class is really easy though and there is not much work that you have to do outside of the assigned essays. I would recommend.

Comment:

Professor Wallace is a really nice lady. If you just write your papers carefully and hit all the criteria for each paper then you should have no problem getting an A. The structure is a simple 4 essays throughout the course. She laughs a lot and can tell funny stories. She is much recommended if you don't want to stress about your english class!!!!
