Comment:
DO NOT buy the books ALL can be found online! She threatens loss of "participation points" if she decides you aren't engaged enough in the mat'l, thought the syllabus doesn't say anything about it. Gets a lil crazy about the text if you don't share the same opinion on things. DOES NOT GIVE ESSAY PROMPTS TILL LAST SEC, drove me crazy! Tread lightly.

I didn't think I would do great in her class, but I received an A.I had professor Nugent for EngWr 51, and it was actually fun. She really explained everything well, and accepts a couple of late assignments;in addition, she lets you revise two assignments for a better grade. She really explains the test before you take it and offers extra credit.

This teacher is really nice. She gives easy assignments, (if you pay attention). Uses text book for just about every assignment, and does in class reading at least every week out of the textbook and that is what some of the homework is based on.

this teacher is great. If you attend her class everyday you'll be fine like me or even better. She's nice, but her work is sometimes challenging. Take a lot of quiz(study and you'll pass) and essay. But, really enjoyable class. I learn and so u can!

She is a great teacher and pretty easy for me even thought i hate english. She always review before the quiz and the homework is easy because she gives you full credit even if you do it wrong and her extra credit is really easy. She is strict though but what teacher isn't. She tells you what to do already you just have to follow directions.

If you don't agree with her, she marks you down on papers. It's her way or the highway. I watched her humiliate a student and drop him for being late. Shes an unfair professor and made me absolutely dread going to class. I might mention that I'm an English major and thoroughly enjoy English, but not this class.

Possibly the only english teacher I've ever had that truly got me interested in literature. She is very particular about what she wants, just do what she asks and you cant go wrong! I HATED english b4 and loved math, now im writing a short story of my own! She is very approachable and friendly and selected very interesting readings for the class.

Definately not an easy A but you will learn a lot about writing and lit. The books and short stories we had to read were interesting and were discussed thoroughly during class. Knows what she is talking about and will find every mistake that you have in your paper. But her critizism is not discouraging and is very helpful.

Great class. There is a lot of work and the grading can be harsh. So take advantage of the extra credit she offers. Also participate in the conversations because they can be a lot of fun.

Prof Nugent is strict about EVERYTHING to the point she NAGS.However, she is a good teacher who encourages class discussion and pushes you to write your best.This class demands a lot of writing and reading.Don't recommend this Professor for anyone who is just trying to pass! or if you are not majoring in English!WARNING- EXTREMELY DIFFICULT LADY!

Not recommended. She is a very hard professor and relies heavily on her own opinion. Responses on the reading the night before are supposed to be your opinion but she marks you down if you don't say what she wants. It doesn't make sense. So many other better professors out there.

I like the fact that she pushes you to be your best, but she's def not an easy A. She demands a lot from your writing and is very particular in what she's looking for. She's passible, but not easy!

Comment:
Her lectures are very long and drawn out spending much time on the readings the night before. The responses become annoying because she is very strict and picky (she mark your paper with every comma you missed...ridiculous). I would not recommend this class there are much better teachers out there....
