I want to thank this woman for being as dedicated to her job as she is. She's battling cancer, and was still able to teach us for a majority of the semester. She made a very open and welcoming classroom environment, she printed every reading material for us (it is a heavy reading class). When she couldn't be in class bc of her health, she skyped us

Get ready to read, write & talk A LOT. Honestly I feel like I did not learn as much as I thought I would have. For the writing projects she expects you to go to the writing center (through Zoom) and if you don't you get points off from your project. Also, if you don't get what she wants for the writing assignments she gets upset. Tough grader too.

I took Hum 144, Gender and Women studies with Valerie. She stated at the beginning of the class that this class will show you your privilege, shake you, and hopefully make you better. And that is exactly what the class did. There is req. readings for the class, but that is to give you a better understanding of whats happening. It is a good class.

Professor Pell does not make the class hard at all. She has everything organized, with plenty of information to succeed. She makes reaching out to her a breeze. She responds to all questions, even if they're asked multiple times. She makes sure you understand by answering whatever questions you ask, however, you need to ask questions.

There is a lot of work in this class. Just do the work and stay focused and you will learn a lot and pass. Great class to learn about writing a term paper. Prof. Pell gives very good constructive criticism.

When Professor Pell tells you that you need to spend X-amount of hours on schoolwork and homework, take her seriously. Theres a lot of research, practice writing, and discussion leading up to one big paper. Main posts are required every weeks along with several in depth responses. Everything builds on itself and all the work is important.

Terrible professor! Been attending wright college for 4 years part time and have never had such a bad experience with a professor as I did with her. I have never written a review on any of my professors because they have all been bearable. However this professor was extremely rude, codesending, childish, and treats you like a slave.

I dreaded going to class every week. She is very condescending and sometimes rude to students. English 102 is a hard course whoever the professor is, but be prepared for extra busy work and attitude from her.

I wouldnt take her class again. Her assignments are layed out well and you can understand most of them, but she is rude and will make you feel dumb infront of everyone for asking a question. She has conferences and will just tear you down if she doesnt like your work. If she was nicer and gave helpful feed back her class would be bearable.

Great overall Professor. If you want to get an easy A for Eng101 this is not the Professor you want. Tons of reading. Definitely makes you work for your grade. I HIGHLY do not recommend taking this course over the summer.

Prof Pell was great, she is straightforward and cares about her students. For Women's & Gender Studies we used the assigned textbook AND one of the books from her list. There were five papers throughout the semester, but they were just about your opinions on the units. We always had group discussions and there was one group presentation at the end.

Comment:
Valeries Womens Gender Study class is very inspirational. This class is tough when it comes to real life situations, its deep and meaningful but can be a real tear jerker. There are 4 projects which are fun to do. You can either do art or a paper. There is a ton of reading, but they are all very interesting. Expect to engage and participate.

Pell is a great instructor. She really cares about her students and wants them to succeed. She loves to have deep discussions when it comes to the readings we have, so it's very important to participate. She expects you to go to the writing center and visit her, that actually counts towards your grade. Do your work, show up and you'll pass.
