Reviews of professor Nicole Eschen-Solis

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
This class should be worth 5 units instead of 3. If you don't show up to class, don't expect to pass or understand any of the assignments. She is a SUPER strict grader so follow her directions to the ABSOLUTE best of your ability. If I hadn't taken this class I would have had 80% less stress the semester I took it. Take only if you MUST.

She assigns long, heavy reading assignments every week until the end of the semester. midterm project + essay, a group project and 8-10 research paper for the final. Extremely slow grader along with the unreasonable amount of time consuming assignments as if her students only have her class to worry about. Save yourself the stress.

Do not take her unless you absolutely HAVE TO. She does not help nor care about her students. She takes grading to a whole new level, by that I mean she she nit picks the tiniest things about everything you turn in. Be prepared to guess on what she might want in papers and discussions because she has no rubric. Shes rude and reminds me of HS.

Doesn't bother to learn your name or show that she cares, pretty condescending as well, and passive-aggressive. Take someone else if you can.

English 333: Only take this class if you ABSOLUTELY need the credit, otherwise skip this person entirely. If you're interested about the technical aspects of comics such as gutters, frames, etc., then pick up a copy of Scott McCloud's Understanding Comics - save yourself the time and money. She is unapproachable and condescending toward students.

There were only 3 major essays with a lot of assignments in between. They're meant to help you with writing your essays but they were a bit unrelated more often than not. Her feedback can be pretty vague, assuming she even grades it on time or at all. You won't really know your grade until the last day.
