Reviews of professor Jill Talbot

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Talbot is amazing! She loves to read students' work and give feedback. The semester starts off with weekly writing assignments capped at 300 words, but it helps to exercise getting your point across in a short amount of space, and the assignments lengthen over time. She provided a course reader for my class and selected the essays we read.

This was not your typical workshop class. Constructive criticism was extremely limited, and in some cases students' opinions would be met with condescension. There were weekly writings that were capped at 300 words, and in many cases the class was poorly informed of how best to work within the frameworks she made available to us.

Dr. Talbot is a nice professor and she truly cares about her students. My only complaint was that for this online class, she opened the modules on Fridays and everything was due on Mondays. It's a bit frustrating having to work during the weekend, but the work isn't hard at all.

Jill Talbot is a goddess. She is the most intimidating prof I've ever had. A fiction writer, I was very hesitant about nonfiction. Jill made it my favorite class. While her inter class is not taught like a traditional workshop, she focuses on craft and the basics. 10/10. Would take again.
