Reviews of professor Sarah Higinbotham

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
She is the nicest lady you will ever meet. You can resubmit all of your essays (including the final) for a better grade. I truly have never had a better experience in an English course.

Higinbotham is one of the most genuine and kind people I have ever met. She clearly cares about what she does and wants to make a difference in students' lives.TAKE HER CLASS. Even if you aren't drawn to English she makes the class interdisciplinary and her content beneficial to any major, but beyond that incredibly formative beyond the classroom.

Dr. Higinbotham is amazing! You can tell that she is enthusiastic about what she teaches and she loves what she is doing. She grades all the essays easily and you get a chance for a rewrite. Overall, amazing teacher!

Dr. Higinbotham truly cares about both the subject matter and her students. She provides meaningful and constructive feedback, and is extremely adaptable. Best professor I have had at Oxford.

The absolute best english professor I have ever had in my life. Doesn't grade too hard but is very encouraging and gives good constructive feedback. I used to hate english and Shakespeare, but her class and teaching changed my mind. Everyone should take at least one class with Higinbotham, promise you will not regret

Dr Higinbotham was one of the most amazing professors I have ever had. I got to take two courses with her and she even helped me in realizing what I was actually good at. One of my favorite things was that she got to know me throughout the year and would challenge me. I loved putting in the work for her. She is so passionate and caring. 10/10

Dr. Higinbotham was outstanding. I took her in her first year at Oxford, but she fit very well into the community. She was passionate about Milton (her thesis) and helped me understand early modern England so much more clearly. She encouraged student interaction outside of class and presented us with expanded opportunities too. Highly recommend.

Prof H is an angel sent down to earth, highly recommend her classes! She's light on work, allows revisions, and is a great teacher. Her teaching style is very dynamic and fun, she's a generous grader, and she really cares about her students. I'm so glad that I chose her class, I know my stress levels would have been way higher with any other prof.

Wonderful professor, she beams with a positive aura and instills strong values within her students. I would highly recommend taking ANY of her classes as she will unquestionably enhance your experience at Oxford. She is also very understanding, and her conversations in office hours feel like home. My discovery seminar group went to her lake cabin!
