Comment:
Walker is very passionate about poetry (especially her own poetry), but she does a poor job of explaining the class expectations and is very unaccommodating when it comes to explaining things in ways so that everyone can understand them. she only has one way she's ever taught and she thinks so highly that she doesn't change, but it's confusing.

Comment:
She was very self-centered on her new book tour throughout the course. She also expected students to have a background knowledge in poetry and know what she was talking about. The assignments were not too much of a hassle, and the class was extremely discussion based.

She's a nice woman but very annoying. I loved writing scripts before this class but she made it more of a hassle for me. Overall annoying teacher.

Such a nice professor, always happy and the class was enjoyable. Tests are hard and she is a difficult grader, but she is willing to help you. I am not very interested in poetry but I liked this class, so I would reccomend it.

Dr. Walker is a great professor. She is a little scatter-brained and disorganized sometimes, but she's a poet. Class is not hard especially if your into poetry and plays, it was actually a lot fun. She says attendance is mandatory but she doesn't take role. Take creative writing classes with her!

This lady is so cracked out but loves poetry. By the end of the semester she will get you to love poetry too. She's a great professor and is always interesting to listen to in lectures. This class is pretty easy, just make sure you participate in class.

Comment:
Though she's a little self absorbed (assigned her own book, talked about her theater program, etc.), she is very passionate about her work and was very insightful about both the business and creativity of poetry. Class was actually a joy to take, with most of the work being fairly relaxed (journals, writing poetry, and a short essay).

Comment:
She's very nice, but we didn't agree on many things and I don't think she liked me too much. I enjoyed challenging her viewpoints in workshop, and I think I'm a better writer because of it. By disagreeing with her and "rebelling" in some ways, I've developed my own unique style and voice.

Comment:
favoritism, but doesn't discriminate. Class tends to be boring, but she does know her Shakespeare. WE wasted a lot of time watching plays in the media room (AKA don't go to class that day). Took attendance the first few weeks, then just random essays that she used for attendance. Not tough, a lot of written work, forced to see 2 plays(w/ stubs)

i thought i was taking shakespeare but the class has been morphed into a theater class because that's clearly all she cares about. clearly has favorites and grades completely arbitrarily. take another section.

Loves theater and loves shakespeare. Has a rewrite policy that is nice because you can't get lower than a B- if you rewrite but sucks if you always have to rewrite. Gives very vague writing assignments and has favorites. Not a difficult course though.

Comment:
I learned the most in this class, of any. She's very smart and very knowledgable about Shakespeare. She's a playwright so she focuses more on plot structure than themes...her tests are pretty hard and you NEED to know the plays like the back of your hand. She is a fair grader and I recommend her, very interesting lectures, very good class.

Comment:
In general a nice lady, but rather out there and too absorbed with her little world of script writing. In fact, she wasted classtime everyday to tell us about her sw class. Don't take her for Shakes. if you want to actually learn about the plays, since she focuses on preformance and prefers drama majors and playwrites.

She's nice, understanding, and helpful. Her tests can be iffy, but she'll end every friday class with "have a good weekend and don't drink too much!" And that just makes me laugh.

Exams are difficult if you don't take notes on what she says. In the quote section use context to figure them out. Other than that the class is easy. Don't take if you don't like to participate, its 25% of the class.

She's pretty good, but kindof scatterbrained! The way she teaches is unorganized...but if you like to participate and read aloud her's is the class you want! Only a midterm, final, and 1 paper. But the 'quote' part of the tests can be specific and hard! She grades fairly specifically in general!

This teacher cannot teach! She acts like she knows everythere there is to know about script writing and yet can't even answer questions about a script she herself wrote. She only gives two tests that are really hard and specific. She is also very big on participation!

she's ok, but very scatterbrained. her organization sucks & i get the idea that she doesn't like to work very hard. i went to london with her & it was fairly easy, but arbitrarily difficult when she felt like it.
