Reviews of professor Helen McManus

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
She is by far the best professor I've had at Mason. The class is based off of five papers. Extensions are given and no reason is needed. She's also very funny and can relate to the student (fortnite was discussed several times). TAKE HER

Best part is that they don't care to take off points for silly things(late work, etc). I learned so much about feminist theory which isn't covered in other govt classes. I love bundles-- u only do work that falls under the grade you're trying to get (a,b,c). Everything is graded as (not)satisfactory! Their feedback is helpful and specific too!

McManus is an absolute sweetheart. She cares about her students and will respond to emails fairly quickly. The class could not have been easier but at the same time, I came out of the course a much more competent and confident writer.

They are very helpful and quick to respond to emails. I would get a reply within a day with very specific and detailed advice. They grade everything as satisfactory/not & give 5 passes to skip an assignment, count something as S, etc. They also let u turn things in late w/o penalty as long as u email beforehand. Overall v understanding and chill

Great teacher! All work is easy and straight-forward. Weekly quizzes that come straight from the readings.
