Reviews of professor Danielle Kodess

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
this professor prepared very good materials but very hard to communicate, takes thing personally and wants to fall all of us. a lot of in-class reflections papers, two formal papers, one presentation, and some other papers and some in class "surprises" papers. in fact, very heavy grading. not easy A, easy to Fail. must participate in EVERY class.

Prof. Kodess is a kind, caring professor/person. The caveat is that she teaches English, which is easy for some and awful for others. You get 3 absences max and 3 tardies = 1 absence. (anything above max is -3% of attendance grade, 15% of grade) As long as you apply yourself and put in the work, you should be able to easily pass her class.

very work heavy, doesnt really want to see her students succeed. she doesnt accept any late work so good luck with that, overall wouldnt take again

Prof. Kodess is very kind and understanding and really wants students to understand the material. Every assignment is broken up into parts that make them more digestible which was very helpful. Prof. Kodess was always available for help and questions and made the class enjoyable. I loved getting to know them and the other students in my class.

I enjoyed this class and professor Kodess was an understanding and flexible professor. They don't really grade stuff until like grades are due which is a bit frustrating, but besides that they were really nice and easy to learn from.

I do not like this class at all, very boring. I feel like she does not care much about students, but if you enjoy reading, sharing your ideas, and writing, this might be a good class for you. Cuz you will write A LOT! and you will talk talk talk ,presentation in the end.

Love her and the topic of this course. Interesting lectures I participated a lot. She is understanding about medical issues, missing class etc. her feedback is useful. She is also kind and flexible. I would've passed with an A but for the final paper I didn't do revisions because I wasn't notified or aware when it was due and I received a 0.

She made Engl 101 a walk in the park! She doesn't grade heavy or anything like that, very sweet and kind! 2 essays & 1 you choose sort of paper (doesn't have to be an essay) as a final project. You can get pretty creative with it. 10/10 recommend!!

Prof. Kodess is a very nice woman, and very understanding, while I did not like English 102 in general, she did try to get to know me and I appreciate that. She does offer extra credit and is somewhat on top of grading. I just did not like the large amount of homework, readings, and slide shows. But, beggars can't be choosers!
