Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Tough grader but really good professor who really cares about her students.

She's a strict grader. Won't just hand out an A and will make you work for it. However, she is very nice and helps you prepare for future classes by being strict. Get ready to work but she's not bad.

I feel like there's incredible educational value in Dr. Atkins' class. I admire her professionalism. She sets a lot of boundaries as a professor, which I appreciate her for. I don't think her class is good for loafers. If you have a lot to give for your English class, challenge yourself with Professor Atkins.

Incredibly harsh grader. She does not give you a chance to speak your mind. Do not take her class. Be prepared to be very annoyed taking this class. She does not grade important assignments in a timely fashion. She is very hard to please. I was doing very good up to the end :( save yourself time

Professor Atkins is an amazing and kind professor, at least to me. She made sure students met with her 3 times during a semester to discuss their grade. I went up to her whenever I needed help with my assignments and she would give me tips. Overall, expect taking her class to enhance your writing skills. Only bad thing is she takes time grading.

She's absolutely horrible it does not matter what you are going through she will never give you an extension. As a professor, she does not lead from examples like how are you not going to give an extra day to complete something and not grade the work for two whole months. It's either your perfect or get a zero. PLEASE DON'T TAKE THIS CLASS.

Professor Atkins in my opinion was good. She was very helpful, explained things clearly, and brought the best out of you. She doesn't hand out A's and you actually have to work in her class. She actually teaches you and although she is a strict grader it is for the best. Do your work and pay attention and you'll be fine.

Professor Atkins is not a mean professor; she is nice and makes the class fun. One thing is that she is a really though graders and takes time to put in grades. If you are a person who doesn't do well in English then I don't recommend her. Now if you are a person who likes challenges then you should take her class.

I took her ENGL 110 course, and I would run the other direction if I had the opportunity to. She grades assignments way too late, you can not learn from your mistakes because of the aforementioned late grading issue, and because she does not make substantial comments that will help you improve. Do not take.

Professor Atkins is nice and is very knowledgable with what she is teaching, however, her class is not easy. She is an extremely tough grader and very strict in terms of following rubric. If english course is not your strong suit, do not take her course because you will not do well.
