Reviews of professor Valerie Johnson

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
She comes across cold and intimidating. And will easily give you a failing grade even if you're trying. Assigns way too much reading.

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
As a person, she's pretty cool. However, she assigns reading EVERY class, there's something due almost every class, and she takes forever to grade. Doesn't seem to take into consideration that you need her feedback on drafts before the final paper is due, not WEEKS after.

She is very intense, BUT she is at the same time very lenient. Especially during this online semester. Deadlines are flexible, and she will consistently explain things to you well during office hours. Her classes are of a reasonable difficulty for an English major, but maybe a bit much for non-majors. Highly recommend!

While Professor Johnson is a tough grader, she give fairly good feedback, and whether you realize it or not, your writing will significantly improve. She is kind of nerdy and hilarious (if you are into Star Wars, and literature, and you're up to date on memes). LOOK. AT. THE. RUBRIC. FOR. EVERY. PAPER.

Told us what she wanted us to do but didn't tell us how to do it (ex. write a *specific type of paper* but doesn't tell you how to write that type of paper. Grades things so slowly and doesn't take into consideration that you need her feedback to improve on the next draft/paper. The only class I have gotten a B in and I had an 89.

Very heavy on reading and homework assignments. She is a delightful person outside of class. Generally understanding, though it is absolutely necessary to track every assignment you need to do.

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Extremely rude to students and is not good at explaining things. The workload is absolutely insane, and that's coming from someone who took AP/IB classes in high school. There are essays about every week and there are frequently projects due. She is not very helpful when emailing her or asking about late work and comes across as cold.

Is a nice person but gives out assignments and reading every single day and takes literally months to grade.
