Comment:
Cons: Easily side-tracked, no clear class topics or purpose, does not return work, loses focus, unclear on what she wants done, won't learn anything Pros: Very nice lady, very easy A, very little work to be expected, doesn't remember/check work. Take her class and expect an A but don't expect to come away with anything.

Comment:
Easily sidetracked and doesn't talk about english much. But she is a very nice lady, with a lot of random information she wants to share. No homework, no textbook. Only write 4 papers, and she does help a lot with revisions. An easy A. And you'll learn a lot of random information. One of my favorite classes ever.

Comment:
pretty sure she has alzheimers. didn't realize she sent us on break one class and offered to send us again. One Friday she didnt show--it had been 15 mins, so we were allowed to leave. On our way out we saw her making her way towards her office (!). Her assignments are vague and she doesn't collect them when she says she will.

Comment:
Dr. Matheis never distributed a syllabus, teaches life/personal lessons rather than English, and seems to focus on things she has an interest for, rather than what the class calls for. She is a kind woman, but creates an incoherent and unpredictable course that barely focuses on the English language.

Comment:
Gets off topic easily. Talks alot about her own life rather than the class. Only have to write 4 papers. I didn't have to buy a textbook. Not mean, not nice, just very strange. Homework is a joke. Look up stuff on google pretty much. She's tolerable. Nothing too major to worry about.

the class sounds interesting but it is absolutely worthless. you will learn nothing and simply waste your time. save your time and money. you will get an easy a but at the expense of having wasted 16 weeks.

She is without a doubt, the worst teacher I've EVER had. Including grade school. She is unorganized, unstable, and rambles on and on... don't take her class. You will not learn anything.

Comment:
Disorganized to the extreme (lost one of my papers twice!), makes no sense, never gives a firm answer about things like due dates, treats students like elementary school kids, inspires absolutely no enthusiasm, acts like a know-it-all, etc. You might get a good grade because she has no standards, but she is so frustrating that it is not worth it.

She didn't assign homework. You never knew how you were doing in her class. Very unclear. Don't think I can pass 101, because she didn't teach me anything.
