Reviews of professor Nicole Draina

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
This was one of the first college English classes I took at UNCW, and Nicole Draina was the perfect professor to give me a great experience! While I did take this course online, she still made it feel like I was in class in person and just everything about her course was explained thoroughly. Lots of assignments but SO much time to complete!!

It won't let me select, but I had her for UNI 101. It was on Zoom and was so easy. She takes attendance at the beginning of class using a question, so you could leave halfway through class if you wanted to and she wouldn't notice. Group projects were kind of annoying but it was a really easy A in this class. We barely had any homework

I took professor draina online for english 201 and she was great! There was not much work assigned and the work that was assigned was pretty easy. There is a big video project at the end of the semester but you work the whole semester towards it.

Very contradictory teacher, needs to learn how to communicate with students.

Professor Draina is great. I never have been good at English or writing papers and she helped me so much. She is very understanding and is so welcoming to any questions. As long as you participate, you're set!!

If you can time manage, this class is for you! It's online, so you really have to be consistent with yourself about watching lectures and getting work done weekly.

Total of 4 papers broken down into four modules. Homework is  "low stakes" and just cares that you try. This was how her 101 class was too.

Clear outline of class on Canvas.

I really liked her as a person and prof. She was a pretty easy grader and I learned a lot from her in class lectures  and the assignments that she would make us do. At the end of the semester everything that you do for homework helps your final paper. I wish she had enough spots for me to take her 201 class (You also analyze Taylor Swift lyrics!)

Lots of work and papers, but thats expected for a 200 level English. She is really nice and willing to help you. Grades pretty easy and lets you revise papers to score better. Overall a good choice for 201

Professor Draina is a great professor! Her lectures are interesting and helpful. She is also very available to students for help and provides clear grading criteria, so you're never going into an assignment blind. I would recommend her class to everyone!

I wish I could take her again. She works with you and cares. I didn't know what to expect when I started college, but she made me excited for what could come next.
