Comment:

She is a good prof! At the beginning, it was a little difficult; she grades tough on the first few essays (email her about your thesis before)! Attendance is graded, too. We had five fiction analyses, an in-class poetry essay, three easy vocab tests, and our final was a group presentation about a play. She gives extra credit (DO IT!) Recommended!

Her class is mainly consists of group projects and work on your own. She doesn't teach much. I learn nothing from her lecture. What's the point of paying tuition and going to campus if you were working on your own in classroom?

Comment:

Professor Tripp's class was the only one that fit with my schedule so I didn't have an option but to take her despite her reviews here. Assigns numerous essays that aren't returned for months, meanwhile students continue to work on assignments without knowing their writing isn't up to her standards. Tough grader, very intimidating.

Comment:

Second course I take with Tripp and only because it was the only time the course fit my schedule. She is very unorganized, takes a long time to return assignments, she isn't always available during her office hours unless you make an appointment, the final was pure vocabulary and unecessary to the course. If you can, avoid her class. Easy to pass.

Comment:

I love Prof. Tripp, but if you are not ready to work don't take her. She is easy, in my opinion because i was ready to learn and my SI class was helpful. She is a tough grader and the thing i don't like about her is that she doesn't respond to emails quickly.

Comment:

Out of my 2 years at CSUN she got the prize for worst prof.Inattentive, unfocused, ill prepared, made it priority that we be prompt while she came in late, did not lead the class. Confusing and often time wasting group work.Do not let the class subject name fool you, look into whose teaching. Wish I would've done that. That's the lesson I learned.

Comment:

I do not recommend taking this course with her. I didn't really learn anything in this class. Course consists of 12 summary-responses based off a very dry book, a presentation, paper, and participation. She is very strict and wants everything her way, so it was hard doing her assignments. She would also get mad when students would use the restroom

Comment:

Literary theory is difficult enough. Having a professor who can't teach it is even worse. Doesn't explain theories, just reads them out of the book and expects you to get them. Answers emails in an untimely manner, if at all. Refused to answer questions about the final. This class was horrendous.

Comment:

She needs to be more clear on what she wants in her research paper and other responses she asks for. Everything she expects to be very in depth. Even when you think you did that, she doesn't. Very interesting class, fun, but hard grader!!!!!

Comment:

I took her Eng113A class last semester. On top of everything, I don't know what I learned from her;pretty much nothing. Just submit a lot of essays and homeworks and she is a hard grader. She dismissed class twice during one semester for nothing and gave students a lot of assignments for that. If you want to learn something, don't take her!

Comment:

Tripp is nice and very funny, but she's not very good at explaining things clearly. The course is interesting and engaging, but you won't learn too much by the end of it. If you need an easy course to fill out your schedule, this is a good one to take.

Comment:

The only way to get a decent grade is to think the way she does. She is very close minded, so if your writing style differs from hers, she will tell you that your thought is incomplete and your paper was poorly written. I received my first D on a paper. I had another professor review it, and thought my paper was genius. It says something!

Don't take her class!U can't learn nothing about English.The attending policy is major issue!She think we can learn English by editing each other essay.How could it be possible!If most of The student have problem on writing,also it not their first language.However if you be on time for whole semester on class and assignment.U probably can get A-B.

(there were stuff in the final that werent even in the syllabus!) 90% of the class was PISSED! out of the three papers due- i receive 2 A's and a B... so HOW DID I GET A C AS A FINAL GRADE?

Comment:

She was a wonderful teacher. If a student was unclear about something all they have to do is ask, she will be sure to help them understand. If you meet her half way, she will be there for you. JUST WORK HARD. She gives you a thesis, shows you what she wants in your essays, then you use your own creativeness to write your own essay, simple!

Comment:

She's out of touch. She can't relate with her students, but she acts like she knows where we are coming from. I had her for an hour, twice a week. The first 30 minutes of each were spent talking about her personal life. She needs to be clear on what she wants in her research paper. Grading on word count? One can only write so much about 1 paragraph
