The absolute best prof. I've ever had.Her way of teaching is so great, she not only teaches the course material but she connects it to other courses.She is 100% fair, and never thrusts her personal opinions upon you.

Comment:
I had Sarah for several classes throughout my undergrad. She was the best Prof I've ever had, hands down. She's one of the profs who really loves teaching and loves when her students engage in the material. If you don't do well in her class it's because you don't deserve to.

This is a very useful course. She designed the book herself too! You learn about English grammar and how to approach texts linguistically. She is very passionate about this course and her students. She is also very willing to help you outside of class. Sarah is a really great role model for future educators and education.

Quite simply the BEST prof I've ever had. She went out of her way to help me through my undergrad and even helped me go on to my Masters. She pushes her students hard, but if you're willing to put in the effort, she'll be with you every step of the way. LOVE this prof!!!

Comment:
She has to be the most condescending and elitist professor ever. She isn't accommodating at all and just pushes me away when I want some extra help. She clearly only wants to help the students that she doesn't need to explain much to. Her and Zailig made me switch majors. The English department needs some new blood.

Took her course 20 years ago. Almost broke under the stress. She handed me a Kleenex box, put some demands on me... I needed them and helped me with an approach to school. If not for her, I may have dropped out. Don't remember the mark and looking back it doesn't matter. I teach English and remember what it means when someone extends a hand. Thanks

Sarah Keefer is *completely* elitist. Don't buy the facade. Having to write "doctor" on your essays because she "worked hard for it"--duh! Who didn't?? I always found her a subtle braggart in class, and totally status oriented when you got her one on one.

I have only had Sarah in lectures, not seminars, but I love going to her class. Even days that I really odn't want to go, I also don't want to miss her lecture. This is a class that could have gotten really boring really quickly, but she made sure it didn't!

A class I was dreading turned out to be one I loved thanks to Sarah. She knows the subject inside and out, and is always willing to give you a hand ... and you might just need it! You can email her at midnight and she'll have written you back by the time you wake up! Amazing!

Hi, my name is Sarah Keefer, and I'm an Anglo-Saxonist! Professor Keefer is a very nice woman, but she is also patronizing and gives very confusing lectures. Cut out the jokes, and just give it to us straight. We're not children.

Sarah's sense of humour and ability to phrase ideas so that they make SENSE are her two biggest assets. The lady rides horses and parses Middle English simultaneously. An all around fantastic human being, with a true gift for teaching.

I have yet to have her as a prof but as a senior tutor she was quite nice, very helpful and made me feel comfortable. I imagine if I did take her class, she would be equally approachable and I wouldn't mind asking questions.

One of the most knowledgable people I have ever met. If she doesn't know the answer, which is rare, she'll use her immense collection of contacts and references to find the answer for you. Brilliant. Tough in class, but brings out the best in students.

Prof. Keefer is an amazing instructor. She made this class so interesting and fun.. who knew learning the history of the English language could be so fun. She's a hard marker but if you work hard, she'll be there to help you any way she possibly can!
