Comment:

She is one of the easiest professors I have had at UWP. Unfortunately attendance is mandatory so you have to sit through her dull lectures. The class is a breeze because you only have 4 essays- which you can resubmit endlessly. Don't respond to her in class... she might expect something out of you.

Comment:

Worst professor ever! She wants you to visit her in her office either before or after writing essays. I visited her once before turning in an essay. She told me all was good, so I get it back and it was all marked up in red pen. She makes you do tons of revisions on essays no matter what! Take this coure with a different professor at any cost.

Comment:

She is possibly the worst teaher I have ever had. Her teaching methods are outdated but refuses to be wrong about anything. She with disagree with your point and then say exactly what you said in different words. She picks favorites and only teaches to them. She is angry at the world and hates all college students. Don't take her class.

Unclear about what she wants. Strict about Unnecessary things like URLs in MLA7. Spends whole hours ranting about concervatives. I feel like I have to lower my standards to please her at all.

If you like the sound of someone snorting their snot throughout class, then Martha is the teacher for you! I was so grossed out by her that I couldn't even think! Assignments were not difficult, but her tests are pretty bad. Avoid her classes and maybe they will finally make her retire....

super easy class, free writing everyday, makes u read out loud. there is no point in arguing with her over stupid things, her opinion is all that matters. picks favorites-just be willing to read out loud and agree with her to become one...then you'll get an A

Sooooooo easy. every day you sit in class and discuss the reading(yeah, its also extremely boring) She is pretty strange, but her class is so easy, just show up and put a little effort into the 3 or 4 writing assignments that are assigned for the entire semester and your good.

Worst professor ever!! I disagreed with her point of view and she told me that I need psychiatric help and my parents must abuse me. She sat me down to try and "counsel" me before I could drop her class. Shes a complete worthless pos.

Comment:

This professor is in no way the "average" English professor. She assigns seats by first name and stood on a desk in the middle of class. She dose seem to care what students think and listens to them. If a student makes a point and can support that point, then she might change her mind. She was not always clear about the writing topics though.

Comment:

She comes very unprepared to class. Very hard to understand. Didn't think through the class material properly. In a World Novel class you would think that there would be some big name authors being used, or at least some well known works. There were none! I will never take this professor again and if I get a D I will be happy!

Comment:

Horrible. It wouldnt surprise me if she wrote herself the good comment below. Rambles a TON. every other word is 'ahhhh, ummm'. Was 30 minutes late to the final. Very unclear as to what she wants on the papers. the ENTIRE SEMESTER was spent writing/researching family history, regardless of if you had before, and previous research cant be used.

She was extremely uninteresting and left us with long gaps in classes where we would sit around and discuss nothing. also, listening to her speak was about as interesting as watching paint dry.

Comment:

Very Very stubborn old woman who says umm at least twice per minute. Every negative comment on this site is absolutely true. It's her way or the highway. Class today felt like being in group therapy? Why do you think this way, why do you feel that way?, etc. Learned absolutely nothing and stuggled alot to get C-s on papers. DO NOT TAKE HER!!!
