Comment:
Karen is a good teacher in the sense of opening your mind to different ideas and perspectives. However, she fails when it comes to her instructions for assignments. Not only this but her lack of knowledge for electronic assistance dampens the ability to get feed back or examples from her in times of need.

Karen is an amazing professor who loves what she teaches. Karen also lives by the poetry that she teaches, which makes taking her class an experience that one cannot pass up. She is a fair grader and really wants to see unique ideas that reflect the student's engagement with not only the English discipline, but with the sentiments of the material.

Shes a great eng 1100 teacher, she marks everything within a week so youll know your mark throughout, theres 2 paragraphs written in class and then 3 take home essays, final essay is also a take home. Shes an average marker if you do what she says, youll get a good grade. Would take her again

Gives way too much homework on top of the in class work. Doesn't go over assignments really well. Articles are interesting but she marks so incredibly hard! Expect low marks on your essays despite being good at writing. Would never take her class again!!!!!

If you have uniques ideas and can back them up! If you like to engage in class discussions . . Karen's class will be heaven. She really listens to other students and value their ideas and very politely lets you know if you are going off to a wrong tangent.

I took Karen for English 1202. Her class discussions are enjoyable because she cares about the subject matter and her students. She also values student's interpretations of the text and takes different opinions into account. Smart and funny. She had us do reading quizzes at the beginning of class. Be prepared to write and read a lot. She's great!

Karen is the best English teacher in Kwantlen. She marks essays very lenient and an easy A+. I can't even fathom on why there are people who think this is a hard class as almost every class of her have a high mark average. This class is easily a GPA booster and she actually cares about the students. I would take her class again.

Comment:
Karen is an alright professor. She is more into the small details than the big picture. One thing I disliked was how her opinions influenced her marking. If you present your ideas in a paper clearly and back it up with evidence, but the point you make isn't what she wants to see then expect a lower mark than a student who agreed with her point.

Karen is a great professor! Yes, she expects you to have done all of the readings and to attend class regularly but if you do this you can count on her to be respectful. Go see her in her office hours if you are feeling stuck!

I was in Karen's class in 2003. I am now on full scholarship in graduate school. Her teaching prepared me for the academic journey I am still on today. I remember her challenge to students wanting As: once you have a hold on the how-to's of writing, you must take risks to make your work outstanding! Take her course, work hard, and learn from her!

All English teachers are tough graders. So be prepared to work hard. U have to make at least 2 revisions on ur 1st draft before u submit it in order to get a good grade. If u turn in the one u did the night before, u probably wont do well. So start a week prior and go see her in her office. She will help you! And don't skip class! Get bonus marks!

Karen is a nice person, but she is extremely difficult in marking. She is very inconsistent too. I received a C- on one of my papers and didn't understand why, i went to talk to her and she couldn't tell me why, so she changed my grade to a C+. Makes me wonder what else she marked wrong.

Although she might be a nice person, Karen is very hard at grading essays and she marks them brutally! Warning,unless you are confident in your writing skills, then think twice before signing up for any of her classes.

She gives me higher marks than I would give myself, so I don't think she actually marks as hard as people say she does. She is a wise, passionate teacher and I always learn something new in each class. Watch out, though, she asks people randomly for answers--even if you're trying your best not to make eye contact. TL;DR She is awesome. Take her.

i have never had a more frustrating teacher than Karan. She teaches at a fast pace and when I took the time to ask her for help, she simply said "it's something I can't teach. You're going to have to figure it out yourself." Don't get me wrong, I'm not slacking or anything, I try my hardest in her class. I wouldn't advise you to take her class.

Karen is a frustrating teacher and inconsistent marker. First essay I got an A-, second she failed the entire class (I got a D). On the re-write she gave me the same comments as were on the other essay, despite how much I had changed it and gave me a C. A classmate was told to ONLY edit the sentence fragments, then given a C- when she did.

Karen is awesome! Best english teacher I have ever had at Kwantlen. I never thought I could write essays but in her class I drastically improved and finished the course with an A. She's tough and will expect a lot of work from you, but she is very helpful and makes class interesting.

Good prof but the course is designed for females. Karen is a nice lady, but she is a feminist which can get kind of annoying. All we worked on all semester was Cinderella.
