WRIT105R . Saur E H 3 Months Ago

Never felt so strong in my writing, but she was always willing to guide me to become stronger within my work. She is very understanding and willing to help you out in any way. Take advantage of her meetings, make sure to do the work on time, put in the effort and it will be a breeze!!

The grading system is a bit different (using contract grading), but it makes me able to focus on the writing itself, but not worrying about what the grade I would get for certain piece of writing. A really caring teacher, not putting a lot of work loads, gives really good feedbacks, respecting, and also a funny professor that you will like. Take it

She is a very conscientious and nice teacher. As long as you meet the requirements you'll get at least a B. To get an A, you just need to write an additional 800-word contract self-assessment. I recommend that you ask her for feedback on major assignments at individual meetings, it's very helpful and you'll thank me for it!

Beth is caring and helpful, and she is not a tough grader. However, there is group meeting every week, so get ready to social with your classmates.

She is a great professor. Contract grading is awesome and you can get a good grade if you show your efforts. Her writing classes are highly recommended.

This class was very helpful, I feel like I learned so much and the grading system is so helpful because as long as you do the work and try your best you get a good grade. Which helps you focus more on your writing instead of what grade you will receive. I recommend everyone takes this class and get WRT2 class as well! Loved her.
