Professor Aili is super caring and her grading criteria is easy to complete! Her feedback helped me improve my writing a lot and allowed me to pursue a more creative way of writing. Just keep up with her work and be specific with what you're discussing in your 2 writing projects plus a final (no tests, just a portfolio).

Very fun professor. Was very welcoming and thoughtful during office hours. Contract grading made it low stress. Two projects and a final project which is just the fully revised previous projects. Tip is to not make first two projects super polished so you have more to work with for the final.
