Reviews of professor Natalie Birthelmer

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Can't tell if she doesn't care about the class or if Thor's hammer is going to drop on my grade book. Also attend class because if you don't Thor's hammer definitely will drop on your grade book. She also handled the shift to online really well. Didn't hear from her for two months, then we got a vlog from her backyard then silence until our final.

If I could be picky just like her, I would grade her on how terrible she is at her job. Definitely do not take her class if you want to save yourself the trouble. This is a clear warning if you ever see this to not take this class with this professor do yourself a favor. There are so many great professors out there she is the last on the list.

The class is hard. I wouldn't take again at all. In my opinion the teacher is really picky when it comes to papers like super picky i understand there are standards that need to be met but some of the things are so minor. Just be prepared to not have a social life because this class will take a lot of time.

She is very condescending, and very unclear in her comments in feedback. She very inconsistent in grading and her grading policies are outrageous, I didn't know if I was taking an English class or a justice studies elective. I would not recommend taking her as she is completely not understanding and fails to properly communicate what she expects.

I had her for 100w and human trafficking; she is witty and thoughtful. I struggled in her class and I thought I was a good writer until I received her feedback. She is a tough grader, but she means well. You might also struggle, but you will learn a lot. The class says it is optional, but go because she grades on participation at the end.
