Reviews of professor Elisabeth Macdonald-Murray

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Lectures were fun! She is caring. I'm not sure why the rest of the reviews are so negative; I had an easy time in her class. I actually rushed the final assignment, did it in a day, and still got an A on it, so... Her marking is a bit weird because she gives you a legend for a set of symbols and then uses those symbols on any mistakes you make.

I don't recommend taking this prof, even if she is your last option. I think you would rather graduate later on. She is ALWAYS cancelling class and her lectures are useless. She takes forever to mark assignments and simply states proudly how she never gives anyone an A. GPA dropping class.

She struggled with teaching this course online and was very disorganized. feedback was vague & although she had time outside of class it seemed like she struggled to give supportive direction and follow through. Focus on heavy political subject matter for writing assignments and comprehension unhelpful & insensitive for a foundational course.

I don't know why Elisabeth has received so many bad ratings. In my opinion, she is very kind and understanding, and will answer any question you have thoroughly. I've had English 105 and CMNS 251 with her and her classes have genuinely helped me become a better writer.

Extremely unorganized professor. I only received the marks for 2/8 assignments for the entire semester. Never received the marks for the final research essay, which was 2500 words and 20% of the overall grade. She also never replies to emails on time. Overall, a mediocre professor and a complete train wreck. Go with better options.
