Reviews of professor Nicole Povero

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Would not take again. Gives poor feedback on essays and tests are short answer and graded heavily. The essays are very confusing and there's a lot of room for error, even with the outline and rough draft review. I have never gotten below an A on any of my other HS/college essays and I was given a D. Unapproachable and made me feel unintelligent :(

This is the worst English class I have ever taken. She is a tough grader, if you email her asking questions about your assignment she will tell you that everything looks great but then will give you a C or lower. She is very veg so you never know where she is coming from. Worst class/teacher I have ever had. Would never recommend her to anyone.

Shes very nice but her class is too much work for a requirement. If you do bad in one assignment it is difficult to get grade back up. Her feedback on essays is okay. Her final is complicated (3 parts)! But the assignments are easy. There are 3 essays throughout the semester. If you are confident in your essay writing skills then take this class.

The professor's class was quite reading and writing intensive; however, this course made me a more thoughtful reader and writer. She provided helpful feedback on papers, and was very approachable and willing to answer any questions I had. This class will make you a better writer. Don't bs the annotations and do the readings and you'll pass

Professor Povero was a great professor and made the material easy to understand. Always helpful. Professor provided an online textbook for the whole class. Lengthy essays but the process was straightforward, lenient grader. Would definitely take another class by Professor Povero! Also attentive to every student.

She was awesome. The class was a bit challenging for me but she was always fair and she will always work with you, Just don't take her kindness.

I am an avid reader and I truly enjoy writing. This course sucked every bit of joy from reading and writing. She is rude and a very tough grader. I enjoyed most of the readings and truly put in my best effort, but each assignment was harshly criticized. Even when I got an A on an assignment, she would give very harsh feedback in the comments.
