I enjoyed the class and the readings that were assigned to us. She also gave us the opportunity to redo our first essay. She is a very hard marker when it comes to essays though so be aware of that. Other than that, I liked our class discussions on the writers and stories

Owens is super approachable and kind hearted. Although I typically do not enjoy english courses, she made this one enjoyable. Her assignments have clear instructions and are based fully off of the textbook. I found her marking tough at times as she nitpicked my work. Nonetheless, she is an amazing and accommodating prof especially for first year.

Comment:
Sometimes I wondered if perhaps Mrs. Owens had secretly teleported from the renaissance era to the modern day, in order to give authors of that time the respect they deserve. Wow does she know her stuff. Participation is important in her class and she has a key eye for whose efforts are genuine. Very fair marker. Plus, she upgraded her hair style!

Best prof I've had. She genuinely cares about her students and gives great feedback on essays. A bit of a tough marker, but if you apply the feedback and put in effort you'll be fine. Easily accessible outside of class, very approachable, and helpful.

She is super kind and cares about her students. You need to be in class otherwise you will miss notes and fail. She is a tough marker but if you see her for help, you will improve.

Classes are boring. She isn't compelling although has a lot of knowledge. No sense of humour, super uptight, can make you feel stupid etc. Don't recommend her.

Professor Owens is great! She is very approachable, friendly and willing to help. If you put effort into an essay draft, she will gladly go over it with you and give helpful feedback. She marks fairly and formulates clear questions for the midterm and final exam. She will likely test you on concepts that were emphasized and elaborated on in class.

Comment:
while a great prof with a clear passion and unparalleled knowledge for the texts she teaches, dr owens falls victim to her constant interest in class discussion. the lectures were less "here is something, what do you think?, here is what i think" and more a quiet and awkward game of guess what you're supposed to say. supportive. positive. fair.

Dr. Owens is one of the nicest profs I've ever had! Despite what some comments say, she is a very fair marker. The material for Literature of the 16th Century was extremely boring, but she made the course tolerable.

Comment:
The prof herself is a nice and understanding lady however she is a very hard marker. She teaches many high level courses and expects her first year students to have the same quality writing as them. The course itself is also very boring and disengaging, horrible to attend class.

Comment:
This was a decent class. The pace of the class was almost slow at times. Prof. Owens is enthusiastic, but the class wasn't overly engaging as a whole. Biggest issue was the discontinuity between the straightforward nature of lectures and the high expectations for papers. Still, a good grade is definitely possible if you put the work in.

Definiately knows what she's talking about but marks hard and doesn't give a lot of leeway when it comes to content. she wants the facts straight up so don't talk her around in circles on papers, she's too smart for that.

She knows what she's talking about, and classes are fun and engaging. Presentations, group work, and discussion are common. Don't fall behind - she uses ongoing assignments and content quizzes.
