CollegeEven if you try hard, you won't necessarily pass her class, her class schedule is very confusing, and you often don't know exactly what her assignment requirements are. webb will cause great trouble and pressure to college students when they graduate.
Took her in last spring. Dr. Webb is enthusiastic about teaching. But the class is so overwhelming. She grades harshly and the assignments are confusing. One thing very annoyed is she insists people call her "professor Webb" while she is only a lecturer who has just earned PhD degree. super arrogant and entitled.
The course itself is VERY EASY but it is REALLY HARD to get an A- feels like everyone gets a B+ or A- but if you are trying to get a transcript with straight A- SKIP HER and RUN. tough grader
The worst linguistics professor I've met. So many mini tasks. The grades don't worth you to work so hard. She's such a busy professor that she can't read your paper during office hours. The only way you can edit your paper is CLAS. CLAS is much more useful than her office hour. A very strict professor. AVOID HER.
Professor Webb is a tougher grader than average linguistics professors. Make sure you go to her office hours and ask for her advice. Easy-going outside of class. Only graded the midterm, final and two papers. Other works were all given 100 but weighted light. So writing good papers are extremely important.
She is a really good teacher if you are willing to learn. Despite the fact that so much homework was given, you really can learn some stuff in this class. If you are only trying to pass, I'd say you should drop immediately because this class is TOUGH. NO PAIN NO GAIN.
