Wow!
The best English professor I have ever seen in Pierce.

She was so nice! She's very passionate and really encourages everyone to participate. In terms of the course, there are quite a bit of essays, and she grades pretty tough! She gives you one late pass. Overall the homework isn't a lot, but the end of the semester can get sort of overwhelming as there is a class novel and research paper!

She has extremely unclear grading criteria, the grading is skewed towards her preferences. Don't bother consulting her rubric. Gives really patronizing comments as feedback, makes for an uncomfortable situation as a student.

Makes helpful videos on each topic for us to watch. There are about 5 essays for the whole semster.

Professor Veiga is a great professor. She gives amazing feedback and will even go out of her way to go over your assignments before you turn them in. Your grade in the class is pretty much based on the 3 main essays but there are a bunch of small assignments given as well. Her tests are all pretty easy.

Veiga is extremely likeable and kind, I really enjoy her energy. She always welcomes questions and communicates with students well. She only gives full scores on essays if the essay is perfect or at least very very good, which I don't completely agree with, so the class isn't a cakewalk, but overall she isn't too much of a tough grader.

I was super scared to take her class because I was never the best at English but she is amazing. Gives good notes on what she expects. Can be a tough grader but gives great feedback to help you for other papers. Can be a lot of homework but it is not very hard. Such a nice person as well and is always available to help you during office hours.

Professor assigns 4 page papers and makes them due in two days, posts assignments throughout the week with zero reminders. The final is a six page research paper due a few days after it is posted. Displays no understanding for working/busy students, is highly condescending towards students and marks them down for arbitrary reasons.

I enjoyed professor Veiga. 3 essays worth 15 percent each, 1 in class essay test worth 10 percent, 1 research paper worth 20 and a final worth 15 percent based on the Handmaids Tale which we read during the semester. Pretty tough grader though but If you participate in class and improve she will take that into consideration at the end.
