Comment:
A great professor! She talks a lot, but most of what she goes over is what will probably be on the exams. Show up, take good notes, read and discuss what she assigns and you'll be good. I really recommend taking her 231 class. I'll be taking my ENG 232 class with her as my professor.

Comment:
Be ready to work for this class. She assigns a grammar workbook that we never used in class. her style of teaching is very un-passionate, The atmosphere inside the class is tense and makes it hard for people to ask questions for certain things without getting judged. Overall would not recommend unless its your only choice.

Comment:
She talks a lot, I tended to drift a little. She loves history and incorporates it into English as much as she can. The Peer Editing was not always helpful and I would have liked clearer feedback on essays. She doesn't seem to enjoy teaching this class, but she did her job of teaching the material well. Overall good class that got the job done.

Professor Fischer may seem harsh at times but she is always 100% fair. She has a low tolerance for students who dont put forth any effort. That being said, SHOW UP TO CLASS!!! Shes very knowledgeable and available outside of class. Shell give you a chance to rewrite your paper if its a D or below. I cant wait to take her again for LIT.

She's great! There are 3 essays and a final. This professor is very helpful with any questions. If your essay is really bad she'll let you rewrite it instead of giving you a D or below. You can get away with not using the textbook as long as you attend class and pay attention. I totally recommend her!

The exam being taken will have some historical questions which should never be on an exam based on English. There are times where it is unnecessary with what my professor does in class that some students get offended by.

She's easy-going and fun. No homework and only 3 exams. Very little work considering a 200 level class. Read the material, take class notes, and study. Her exams are definitions and short answer (a sentence or two). Be wary of taking her in the Fall, she has a lot of commitments and you may have classes canceled.

I just taken her class 102 in this fall term. But I didn't catch her voice when she read the book. She just said to us that you don't need to use textbook. Damn! If you are study as international student, don't choose her class. It must be difficult for you.

Absolutely amazing! If you work hard you'll pass the class! Just one Term Paper assigned on Day 1 due in 6 weeks. You have 3 exams written in Blue Books with the readings. She does a thorough explanation to what's going to be on the test and what the readings are about. She's a tough grader but she's fair and extremely passionate!

This professor tells you bluntly what you need to do and gives you the chance to re-write your papers.

She is funny, but expect you to do the work. She loves participation and she will give you hints on what to study and pay attention too for exams. One paper and 3 exams. The material you can get online or the library. No second chances, so do it right the first time.

the only things that you have to worry about for this class is the tests because those are your only grades. if you do not read you will not pass and if you do not show up for class you wont get notes which are critical for your tests to pass. wonderful class and would love to take the class and teacher again. learned so much in this class. love!

Took her for ENG 101 & 102. 101 you had to write three papers and the only test was the final. 102 you had to write a 4 page term paper on a exhibit at the Nevada State Museum and pick a reading in class that related to the exhibit. 102 had 3 tests on the readings that we did in class and it was fairly simple. I definitely recommend taking her.

This class really tests how much effort your willing to put into college. Do not expect Professor Fischer to just hand out A's. She is the real deal when it comes to tough grading. The upside to this is that you know the grade you receive is genuine and not giving out of pity or empathy. If your a slacker though, I do not recommend this class.

I loved professor Fischer. She was funny and has a dry sense of humor. 3 major exams on works covered in class and a Nevada state museum paper with slideshow. You must come to class as she goes over everything you need to know. An easy A for me but difficult for others who did not come to class. No textbook needed. All reading can be found online.

Shelley is really laidback. She doesnt assign homework. But it is recommended to read the assigned texts. I havent read anything all year and have an A in the course. Make sure to show up to class and take ALL the notes. ANYTHING and EVERYTHING she writes on the board will be on the test. IF you fail one test you will barely pass.

I take this class in summer and I wanna a more easy way to learn so my friend suggest her to me. But as we go through everything she just told you to read and understand it by yourself. In class she will talk about the reading and go really fast it is hard to catch up and understand her. She always complain how bad are the grades.i have a hard time
