Reviews of professor Tasha Hawthorne

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
My favorite professor at Berea hands down. She is so nice and caring and does more for her students than she is given credit for. Yes, she grades harshly, but if you do all the work and actually listen to her feedback- you'll do great. Take her if you want to become a better writer, but if you just want an easy A- she's not for you.

Prof Hawthorne uses a grading contract similar to a few other professors at Berea. Upfront it's given if you do the bare minimum of required material you'll get a B-, but if you want higher you have an additional assignment each week, but if you miss a week none count, but majority got B's. Not very available outside of class, slow response time.

Hawthorne is a wonderful woman to speak to have good conversations with. Mostly reading and discussions. Claims that doing well in the class is a B and rarely gives an A. If looking for an A, do not take her.

One of the best professors Ive EVER had. Her door was always open if I had questions or needed extra help. She made class and the material interesting and fun to learn. Everything you need to know is on the syllabus, but she adjusts it as necessary for the class benefit. She encouraged us to not only be students but teachers to each other. ThankU

Professor Hawthorne was on of the major reasons I left Berea. She bullies students, gossips behind their backs, and does not allow you advocate for yourself. She didn't even grade half of our assignments, so I don't know where our final grades came from. I wouldn't wish her on anyone, and if you get stuck with her, good luck.
