CollegeAn absolutely ridiculous amount of coursework for an English 100 class. Gives horrible feedback. Often does not grade properly. I've emailed her multiple times to correct my grade as she does not input it incorrectly. Assignments are abnormally lengthy and confusing.
I've taken 2 classes (139 & 141) with Prof. Webb. You have to do the work in this class, read regularly and weekly blog. I hated the blogs, but it's so helpful for the discussions and the exams. The projects were fun. You get to apply what you've learned in the class. Webb is very enthusiastic and helpful. She really wants her students to succeed.
Ready to hang myself because of this class. The least considerate professor I've ever had at UCSB. Assigns and expects too much, but never give any helpful feedback at all. Still haven't gotten our grade from our 2nd midterms but we're already doing our final test (not a final exam according to her but it's looooong AF) TODAY. FML and this class.
Takes attendence every class. Tests are worth a lot. Doesn't seem very understanding or help with workarounds to things even though students are struggling. Very knowledgeable in what she teaches though. Too much HW and reading where you will constantly need notes. Group Project is also a bunch of reading and then presenting to the class. :(
Wish I read reviews before I took her. Was a major req and took it as a last min class. BIG MISTAKE. I tried to go to her OH to let her know of my circumstances. It's COVID and ppl don't have housing/money so they have to work. Not understanding at all. Emails are cold. HW AND READING EVERY WEEK. TESTS WORTH 60%. My worst grade ever in LING.
You'll need to do almost everything by your own. She has very bad attitude and rude sometimes. not very helpful to students. sometimes she even tries to ignore you.
