Reviews of professor Sonya Vaughn

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Horrible at feedback and answering questions when you don't understand, we wrote the same paper 7 times 7 ways, can't reuse old sources, can't repeat your own words. Takes forever to grade and to reply to questions, acts like a highschool teacher like we aren't adults with jobs. Truly horrid, I lost my 4.0 GPA because of her. NEVER TAKE THIS CLASS!

She's a very good professor and I learned more in her class than any other English class I have ever taken. With that though, she is a VERY hard grader, and to get a good grade on your papers you have to have very few mistakes. She gives out a lot of homework/reading and lectures are very student-teacher interactive.

Her class is set up so you have to apply yourself to pass. Yes, she's a tough grader, and she assigns a lot of work that can seem repetitive. But if you do the work, you'll learn the material. Which is kind of the point of going to school. But she is extremely fair, and if you communicate legitimate issues with her, she'll work with you.

She was a great when it came to helping out students. You are not allowed to use your phone/laptop in class unless she tells you. Since the class is lecture heavy it's wise not to miss class because the directions are rarely on canvas. If you miss any of the essays or presentations that are due it's an automatic fail for the class. Plenty of hw too
