Comment:

This class is very interesting. But she is, in fact, the worst professor I have ever taken at rider. Her syllabus will have due dates but she will come into class and say that the assignment was due for that day when the syllabus said differently and you still had a full week to do it. She doesn't care what her syllabus says and she is very rude.

Comment:

Really nice lady, you're expecting to read a lot but most of the material is pretty interesting and short. A lot of group work and presentations. Chill class though, get out early often. midterm, 2 presentations, 2 essays. Not expected to take final unless you're failing the class.

Comment:

Professor Peters is a nice lady but a terrible teacher. She is not a great speaker and doesn't let student choose their own paper topic which is disappointing. Overall her class was pretty boring and waking up to go was like living a nightmare.

Comment:

Pearlie is a very nice lady and professor. This class is easy to get by but you might as well pay attention and do the readings. People tend to treat her class as a joke but if you show your paying attention she will definitely respect you. She is an older women but is very smart on what she is teaching. Pay attention to her reviews before tests!!

Comment:

Dr. Peters is a very nice women; however, it is time for her to retire. She was extremely unorganized (changing assignments at 3 AM for example), her syllabus was a disaster, and she never once answered any of my multiple emails sent in the semester. The class was a waste of time. Very few assignments- reading responses, two papers, & annot biblio

Comment:

She's very unlcear about what she expects. She puts EVERYTHING in class even content from student presentations. She very set in her ways, is extremely knowledgeable but not personable. I did tons of extra credit and only got an A- She doesn't negotiate grades and does not welcome office visits. Avoid if possible to find nicer/easier professor

Comment:

She spends so much time repeating herself and I feel that all I've learned is the word "tone" and the way writers express what they're saying. Wouldn't recommend if you're looking for a fun class, would if you're looking to just sit and chill while she lectures.

Comment:

Dr. Peters is a sweet woman who is very passionate about literature. The course is very interesting and there was never a dull moment. She assigns readings for every class so make sure to read them for the midterm. She expects her students to fully participate in the class so make sure you do. She's also willing to help any student in need.

Comment:

This teacher is one of the worst I've had. She's very unclear and doesn't explain any assignments and then will grade you on expectations she did not clarify. If you can stay away please do because you will leave class everyday thinking what is going on. She is rude and unapproachable and you just will not enjoy this class if she doesn't like you.

Comment:

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. She tells you one thing and expects another. Will fail you if you did not read her mind and do what she wants. She is not clear on any instructions but will occasionally extend deadlines if you cry. She seems knowledgeable in her area but does not share the knowledge.

Cannot believe how rude this teacher was for no reason. If you can avoid this teacher I would, dropped the class within the first week because if she doesn't like you, you will fail and she did not like me for no apparent reason.

Comment:

She was very redundant and all over the place. I did not learn anything in her class and ended up withdrawing from it. If you can avoid her please do. I will say that she is a nice person but not a great teacher.

Comment:

Dr. Peters is such a sweet woman. This class was good, but there was work that needed to be done. A lot of reading. There were big projects too. But they were easy if you take the time to get it done. Participation in class is huge to her. She will definitely help a student in need. She knows the material. There was a midterm but no final exam.

She is the best teacher I had in English. This course was good the whole semester; learned a lot of new stuff for student teaching. there was a lot of reading and writing and discussion. She is easy to get along with but she is a tough grader. do the readings, participate and turn in stuff on time. Don't plagiarize. go to conference..show interest
