CollegeLectures felt a bit slow, but that was probably because they met at 5pm… overall she was good, you're essentially guaranteed a B if you complete all assignments and anything higher is determined by the actual quality of your papers. Learned a lot about rhetoric and persuasion and I liked that we got to choose our topic for the second project.
Professor Warwick is the best professor I have ever had here at UCSB. She has also helped me improve my writing more than any other teacher I have ever had. Her class gives you a lot of freedom which makes improving your writing seem easy. I have already used skills and methods from this course in other classes, and my TA's have praised them. No TB
Nicole is fantastic. Best professor I have had at UCSB. She genuinely cares about her students and teaches in a way that really allows you to learn without stressing about your grade. Grading is based on a contract. Do the assignments (which are not difficult & often fun to do) and you will get a good grade.
Professor Warwick was an exceptional instructor. Only thing is it is there's a lot of workload, but can be done within the next class. She's very understanding and the class is an easy pass as long as you do everything you're required to do, again very manageable.
Such a kind, caring, and compassionate person! 3 projects that all tie in with each other, weekly reading and writing reflections.. typical workload for a Writing 2 course. Made it eminent to try and connect and help us all to the best of her ability. Genuinely wants us to succeed. Nit-picky with grading sometimes. Overall solid prof.
loved Dr. Warwick she was so inspirational and kind, cares about her students a lot and really wants the best for us! definitely take her course if you can
