Comment:

She is the sweetest lady at the school. If you know how to write, and you turn in you assignments on time, you will get an A!! Its true, her class is slow but she is very helpful and understanding... I certainly didnt mind when class was cancelled either.

Comment:

I know she was pregnant, but she was a hippocrite. Reprimanded me for attendance, but she missed more classes than I did. She's unfair and she's unable to see it. I would have showed up if class was more interesting. If reading and writing are so interesting, why did she ruin it?

Comment:

Ms. Smeby is a wonderful teacher. She is more than willing to work with you to achieve what you want, and is extremely understanding. Her class may be a little slow, but there are things she is required to teach, like grammar. She was the nicest prof of my first year of college.

Very nice lady, cancels class a lot but it's not a problem because everything is pretty easy. She's willing to help you on anything as long as you set up an appointment or email her.

Comment:

For those of you who say she is lazy... she was PREGNANT. For the class, this is such an easy class. Almost no reading, just a few papers. She will set up appointments in class to go over yours personally whcih means a guarenteed 'A' for a 10 min meeting. You will be lucky to have her as a Prof

SHE IS HORRIBLE. Class may be cancelled so much but it is because she is extremely lazy. You can't figure out her grading style cause she only gives good grades to her favorites. DONT TAKE HER IT IS POINTLESS

Comment:

She is horrible. If she doesn’t like you CANNOT get a good grade in her class no matter what. Even though she cancels class a lot it’s not worth the frustrating times and bad grades she gives you. Since her class I now know less about English then before and hate it about 100 times more.

Take this class if you can! Class is canceled at least once a week. She is also willing to push the due dates of papers back. Try anything you can to take this class. You won't regret it.

HORRIBLE! Cancels class all the time and if she doesn't like you; you don't do well. Save yourself the time and take this class from another professor. It's such a waste taking it from her. I learned absolutely nothing!

Comment:

she is straight-forward and not overwhelming. its like my senior year in high school all over again with her. 4 papers and a non-fiction novel. she cancels class at least once a week and when we are there, there's nothing new to be taught.

Comment:

She is lazy and she cancels class all the time. Don't take her. She doesn't try and doesn't know what she's doing. I could have gotten an A in any english class and got a low b it's not worth it to take a teacher who sucks.

This lady is nuts! She's very unorganized. I'm surprised she still has a job here. I did find the lack of class time fun but not benificial if one would want to get anything out of the class.

Comment:

lazy. oh so lazy. i had to take this class as a senior on a technicality. DON'T DO THAT. i ended up doing as much teaching in this class as she did. she also has an attendance policy--that would be acceptable if she didn't cancel every third class. i think she's lazy and doesn't teach anything.

I didn't like her at all. She was very unfair (gradewise). If she liked you, you did well...if not; you didn't do well at all.

Comment:

Very unfair. Her grading is based on whether she liked the content of your paper or not and not the structure, grammar, etc. She also plays favorites, it may not seem that way until you start asking what other's got on their papers. You’ll notice that
