Reviews of professor Usha Vishnuvajjala

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
I am so thankful I was able to finish my last year at New Paltz with Dr. V. She was always passionate about the material she taught and is incredibly intelligent. She's really reasonable about due dates, extensions, absences etc as long as you are honest and speak to her about it- she cares about your success!

Two papers. Both pretty simple, but just put the time and effort in. Journal entries that are so easy and take like 10 minutes. These two things are practically your entire grade. Final was easy, just make sure you know the material. Don't stress yourself out over the readings, if you miss a few it's fine. Never calls on anyone. Group work is rare.

Not the best choice for students that are genuinely interested in English but a GREAT choice for those that are not. Dr. V is extremely smart and experienced. She is very sweet, assignments are easy and there is normally a reading for class but you do not need to read them. Would highly recommend.

Dr. V is very sweet and I would probably be her friend outside of class, but I haven't learned anything in her class. Easier than high school english. She assigns readings that are due every class, but you don't actually have to read them. If you are a halfway decent writer and show up to every class and raise your hand, you'll do well.
