Comment:
I have had Sharon for 2 classes over the past 4 years and she is by far my fav prof. She is an extremely good teacher and knows a lot about the professional writing industry. She is a very tough greater, but if she sees you trying and attending lectures/tutorials she will help you out. Outstanding professor! But get ready to actually do some work!

I actually took this course a while ago. Don't let a sense of humour that you may or may not jive with cloud your senses to the care this prof has for her students. At the time I didn't care what I was doing, but Sharon basically *made* me go to University, and I thank her for it greatly.

Comment:
Sharon is a great teacher and lecturer. People are too harsh on her because they take her witty quips too seriously and don't like the work. I wish the course had Photoshop and InDesign workshops, and more challenging design document assignments; I blame the department and not her. Prepare to read and learn fundamental rhetorical design theory.

I learnt nothing in Sharon's class other than some strange personal propositions she spewed at us students. She is perverse. She enjoys humiliating students and giving them unreasonable work loads. She is a terrible teacher and a terrible person.

Comment:
People hate Sharon because they take everything she says and does personally. She's dry and sarcastic, but hilarious if you have a good sense of humour. I have issues with how she structures and designs her courses - I never learned InDesign in a document design course with her, and her course about rhetoric is basically a history class.

Comment:
A boring lecturer and unfair marker. I am a B+A student and she gave me the lowest grade I've ever gotten. She is not approachable because she is easily irritated and mocks students. She taught nothing valuable or related to the course, which I was originally excited for.

Comment:
This class was by far the hardest class I have taken at York. Sharon actually gives us readings that would take a NORMAL human being 2 weeks to read and she'd expect us 2 have read it within one week. She fails 2 realize that we have other courses 2 deal with & her exams are hard! Too much work for a 3 credit course & I pretty much learned nothing

The prof is lovely. However, the course itself is BRUTAL! If it is not required from you....RUN! She's a tough marker and half of the things she says in class don't even end up coming on the exam. The exams are soooo difficult, ur Einstein if you pass them. If this course is required from you, GOOD LUCK....trust me, ur going to need it! xD

This woman is so sarcastic that I can't even handle listening to her. She loves playing favourites and embarrasses students openly. I would have dropped this class after the first week if it had not been required.

Great professor. Direct, understanding and a great sense of humour to boot. Knows her subject well and recognizes quality when she sees it. Some might find her methods intimidating.

This is the WORST professor I have EVER had! She does not care about her students and assumes that her course is the only course we have. She overworks us and is out to fail every student. She is a bitter old woman who needs to retire.

Sharon's love for movie is outstanding. Most of the tests and exams were from her lectures. Now i cannot watch movies the same way any more. I am always picking out details like lighting and director signatures. Thanks to Sharon, my movie collection has expanded

She has a passion for movies and it shows as she teaches the class. She will make you care about the smallest details of a movie. You will never watch a movie the same way again. Personally I enjoyed the class and I thought she taught it very well. If you don't know what lib arts class to take, I would definitely recocmend this one.

Hated it at first, but Sharon and the class grew on me. You can learn alot from this lady. You listen to music in class... c'mon does it get better? Take in the lectures and apply to the assignments, easy. You don't even have to read the book. Good lady, Good teacher.

i wanted to take this class because i wanted to learn something but i can't learn anything from her because she doesn't know anything. she acts like she's smart but she's not. everything she says was read somewhere. doesn't put thought into her work. is just there for the paycheck.
