Reviews of professor Laura Ellis-Lai

Rating: 4.5/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Laura is honestly the sweetest person ever. She really gets to know each student. The honors class is amazing! Although it may seem overwhelming at first, it's not, trust me. In addition, Laura is there to help. I ended up getting a 103 in the class and I got to present at a national research conference for undergraduates. I highly recommend.

She was a great professor and the feedback she gave was very informative. Her rubric on her writing assignments was very specific but it was so hard to fail a writing assignment. Just read the textbook, follow the rubric and you should be fine on passing this class with an A.

Dr. Laura handled this semester as best as she could. I really enjoyed her class. There were some points where I felt as if the assignments were pointless, they weren't hard. Every week was a new assignment. If you fell behind, it could be hard to catch up. If you can keep up with your work, then I recommend taking her. It is a pass or fail course.

Great professor! Introduction project, two main projects, website creation and job project. Your attendance will count as your participation (20%). Quiz every week. And a final based on all the quiz questions. A lot of group work. Amazing class though, and Ms. Laura was always there to guide you and help you.

She assigns about 100 pages of required reading a week. If English isn't your major or your interest at all stay far away from this professor because she seems to think that everyone loves reading hundred of pages about history weekly. Really considering dropping this class

This professor helped my writing a lot. Most of the class is peer reviews which means she only spends a couple day actually teaching, very nice teacher though.

We were out of class for over a week due to loss of power city wide and she made it so all assignments/classwork from that week, that we didn't have access to, were due the following Monday when classes weren't supposed to start back up till that Wednesday!

I have a suspicion that she is a caring professor, however I see none of that in our class. The majority of the time we are in her class, she sounds like she's reciting a prepared script of inspiring or conversation-sparking topics. The only thing is they don't manage to do either. Her assignments are difficult and she imposes ridiculous due dates.

this was a summer class and it contained A LOT of assignments. Not super hard but require a ton of writing and she has set very specific directions for her assignments. Her assignments are pass/fail, so if you meet her requirements you get a 100, but if you do not you get a 0 so it's very cut throat. tough A. BUT, she is super friendly and cool.
