Comment:

Professor London was great! Her class was very discussion based, and she is a tough grader when it comes to written papers. However, she wants you to succeed and grades fairly and takes improvement into consideration. She is very helpful outside of class during office hours. Would highly recommend!

Comment:

I loved this class. The books were great, and Professor London really contributed to my understanding of them. The writing assignments really made you think, but it challenged me and my writing has greatly improved since I've really learned what makes the difference between an A- and an A paper.

Comment:

I have had Dr. London for two classes and I really enjoyed both. The entire class is discussion based, so pretty much everyone is forced to get involved. The books she assigned were excellent; she had a lot of good insight to share during class. Also, when you ask for help, she is more than willing to give you a hand, and is very encouraging.

Comment:

Excellent teacher, she was very helpful with helping papers, more interested in making sure students learned than paper grades (allowed revisions and went over papers with students). She will ask for input in her classes, but doesn't call on anyone. Good class.

Comment:

Very easy class to sit in and not pay attention if you want to...but if you want to participate, its really difficult because she likes to talk. Very opinionated. If you are writing something she disagrees with (shes liberal), she will say your argument is weak (even if paper, truthfully, is good). Annoying mannerisms - including stutter.

Comment:

I think Prof. London gives incredibly comprehensive and high-quality feedback on students' papers, something I often find lacking from other professors. She's kind, sympathetic and very insightful. I've learned a great deal from her classes and talking with her during office hours etc.

Comment:

Woah, I think it's pretty extreme to transfer because of ONE teacher in ONE class. I found Professor London clear, interested in the material and organized in leading discussions. She let you revise papers and books assigned were varied and enjoyable.

Comment:

I had London last fall and I never knew this website existed until now, and I am so glad because I feel it is necessary to tell people just how awful this professor was! I have transferred schools because of the poor experience I had with this professor!
