The best professor ever , genuinely the best
This class was super interesting for an academic writing course.
Professor Pettersson Peeker is extremely caring and easy to talk to. Her assignments are extremely unique and allow you to be creative.
Professor Aili is genuinely one of the most caring professors at ucsb. She is very easy to talk to and wants her students to succeed. She uses specs grading which makes the class stress free but you still learn a lot about writing. Readings are interesting and assignments can be fun if you make them fun. Take her for writing 2 if you can!
One of the kindest and most supportive instructors I've had. Her course is well-structured, readings are engaging, and she truly cares about students. Emails are answered quickly, office hours are welcoming, and the workload is reasonable. Highly recommend! 100% would take her class again—my favorite professor at ucsb. and be ready for presentation
