Comment:
Seems like a very nice lady and is probably a genuinely nice person. She's super quick to give praise, but she doesn't give out much criticism. As a workshop class, it would be nice to get some real feedback instead of a "great job" for everything. The class isn't hard, but the work gets tedious. She forgets to post assignments on canvas often.

Great teacher! She will go out of her way to help you if you ask. And she's not critical. It's a CREATIVE WRITING course -- constructive criticism is what the course is about. In my opinion, she wasn't critical enough sometimes because she was trying to be too nice. I'd really recommend her.

Great class! Just work really hard and be willing to go in for extra help! She pays a lot of attention to improvement throughout the semester, so even if you aren't the best writer, you can still do well!

It was a good class and I learned a lot but it would of been nice if she wasn't so critical all the time. And she does have favorites and that was annoying but it was an interseting class overall

Linda is such an amazing professor. I took the CRW Workshop with her and I loved it. You have to work hard and really think about your writing, but it pays off during class. Just have confidence in yourself and enjoy!!

Is she doesn't know and like you before the first day of class, then don't expect any attention or a good grade in the class.

Be careful- she will have favorites. And be prepared to learn how to write creatively from a BOOK.

Comment:
Not very objective; can be both hyper-critical and hypocritical; brought in one of the WORST poets I have EVER read for a reading. If you want to take creative writing, don't let my review get in your way. Just try not to doubt yourself.

She is a good teacher but needs to focus on her student's poetry more than her own. If I have to hear about her bleeding in Grewen Hall one more time! You get the idea. Take her class!
