Assings a lot, but allows you to redo your assignments for a higher grade. She wants to see you're working hard, and if you do, it's a fair A. A fair amount of work, yes, but worth it because of how great she is with students. There's also lots of freedom to pursue what you write about.
Kindest teacher ever. She expects you do to your best, but will work with you. She is the most approachable, friendly teacher. She truly cares about her students.
Assigns way too much HW for a Writing 2 class. Not approachable and is unclear in her grading criteria. The subject matter discussed during class time is repetitive and boring. Would highly recommend taking another professor.
Toooooo much homework Really strict grader
Looking for an easy professor to fulfill WRIT 2? Then don't take this professor. We wrote 3 writing projects (1000-1500 words each), a writing portfolio, and 2 daily blogs every week. Other professors assigned 2 papers. Attendance is mandatory. You'll also be marked absent if you use your phone in class or if you're 5 mins late to class.
I absolutely loved Prof. Fancer. She is very sweet and you can tell that she really cares that all of her students do well. If you need to take Writing 2, I highly recommend taking it with her! The class isn't the easiest (lots of writing, duh) but she's always accessible and ready to help if you just ask.
One of the best teachers I've had at UCSB! Truly cares about her students. I've taken multiple writing classes with her (even in writing subjects I'm not fond of) simply to have her as a teacher again. Really makes you think outside the box and encourages you to be yourself and follow your passion.
