Reviews of professor Teresa Saxton

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Dr. Saxton is a pretty good professor to have. She is very clear about what is expected, and is very organized. Definitely a solid choice for a 100 or 200 level English class. She's definitely not an easy grader, and you have to work to make sure your writing follows her expectations. Even so, she is a very flexible person.

For an honors writing class, the workload was super manageable. There are three papers, a final project, and some forum posts. She will grant an extension if you need one and she is really helpful during essay conferences. Take her if you can!!!!!

Professor Saxton was a really and understanding outside of the content in the class. Her class times were slow and unorganized. The topic of class was centered around Paul Dunbar which got old really fast and felt very repetitive. Her Isidore page was also very unorganized. Overall, was way too complicated and in depth for an English 100 course.

Dr. Saxton is an amazing professor. I really enjoyed her honors writing class on hospitality. She is very intelligent on her subject, and her passion for English makes her class more interesting. She is a hard grader though. I suggest finishing your essays a day or 2 ahead of the due date and doing extra review/ edits on them before submission.

She was my favorite professor at UD! she genuinely cares about her students. You write and present what you want, but it is very research-heavy. Although, I learned a lot about research and how to write a paper. Getting A's on papers is tough to do, however, there are other ways to boost your grade. If you are worried, just talk to her. TAKE HER!

AVOID! She doesn't make her grading criteria clear at all. To get an A you have to be "distinctive", but she can't tell you what that means since then it wouldn't be "distinctive". She grades very subjectively and without a rubric. She also takes months to grade. I was very stressed the entire course, and I learned nothing all semester. DO NOT TAKE

Do not take this Professor. She is impossibly unorganized and grades extremely strictly even for the best papers. Ive never come across a teacher that grades as harshly as she does. The directions for papers are vague and the lectures pointless and unhelpful. I wouldnt wish this class on anyone And if you value your grade, find another teacher.

She is very caring about all her students. Extensions are given easily, as long as you ask. She is really good at explaining what needs to be done and when. I would definitely take her again!

Dr. Saxton is nice, but she is a very, very strict grader on papers. Doesn't provide great feedback before turning in final copy.
