Reviews of professor Pariss Garramone

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Avoid the class if you can, this 1 class will make you fall behind in your other courses due to the workload. her lectures are repeated repeatedly, and she talks like we are 5-year-olds.

She addresses students like children and talks to us in a demeaning way. Every week there's a quiz, which is graded in such a confusing and non-consistent manner. She is just absolutely terrible. I cannot put it into words how terrible she is as a prof. Shame this course is mandatory and that shes the only prof. Praying for current+future students

She's intimidating in class and teaches a demanding course. That being said, she genuinely cares about you and is willing to work with you one-on-one. She's a tough grader and has one of the hardest courses for first years, but if you pay attention and work hard, you will become a better writer. Coin toss on the grade though, doesn't update BB.

speaks as if students are 5 years old and have never written anything in their life. expects 6 hours of studying for her class. speaks down to students and overall not a great prof.

1st year writing... Absolute nightmare. Professor acts like you have never written a single thing in your life, and attempts to manipulate your style of writing to fit her agenda; if you don't, she makes snarky remarks, and gives you very poor grades. She is very condescending in nature, and teaches like you owe her something. Avoid at all costs.

Garramone expects students to spend 6+ hours a week working on this course, a course where you're forced to relearn everything you should've learned in high school, like how to write academic papers and proper citations etc. Attendance is also required for some reason and she never responds to emails. most pointless, tedious course ever taken

taking her class makes me envy the blind-deaf community. Please never take this class :)

I would never like to take this class again, I wrote until I could not but she did a great job of explaining and teaching. I am just grateful i got the score i did

No reason for the class to be this heavy, she just wants to feel like she is truly teaching something when she isn't for a first year course.

the course is a waste of time and money. I don't understand why we need to take this "mandatory" course if it's not even close to being related to my major.

If you can please stay away from her.

Nice human being, but gives an unnecessary amount of work and is a tough grader
