She's a kind professor, cares about her students. The class content is different than other English classes, but her lectures are detailed and organized. She def deserves a better rating on here. You get a cheat sheet on the midterm and can redo papers. Do the readings and participate and you'll do great.

She is a good professor and deserves a better rating on here. She is very sweet and passionate about her class and the students learning. She gives options to regrade essays to get a better grade and the class was not too heavy with readings or assignments.

You could tell Professor King was very passionate about the subject material which made the experience quite enjoyable. She's not picky about topics for papers, of which you will have 2, and is open to any idea you may raise. If you pick something you're passionate about writing that is half the grade to her. Just communicate with her!

Grading criteria can be a little bit iffy not because she's unfair but because the instructions are unclear. Lectures are normal and mostly interesting but def not needed to do any of the assignments. Short essay and final rely on the readings. Go to office hours cause she's very nice just a little new to teaching it seems.

Prof King is nice. She's helpful and answers emails quickly. Her lectures are dull, but the topic is interesting. The class revolves around writing as a technology. The concept is confusing at first, but it starts to come together after the first few sessions. The class itself is easy-Not a lot of work. Overall, interesting, easy but boring.
