Ms. Zunkel is my favorite teacher and definitely the best writing teacher I've ever had. Her class is easy to manage, but it's all about what you want to get out of the class. Hers was the first college writing class I ever took, and some of the prompts seemed a bit obscure at first, but I ended up learning more about writing than I have in years.

I am now leaving PCC and this prof is by far the best writing instructor. Truly cares about students. If you can take one of their classes, do it.

Ms. Zunkel is amazing. One of the most extraordinary people i have ever met. She is very caring. She gives you chances to revise some papers after they're graded. She speaks with passion and empathy. It's easy to tell how much she loves her students. If you're looking for a stepping stone into the writing, Jane is the perfect professor!

This was a good introductory writing class. Reasonable amount of course work. Reading selections are interesting and not dry. She gives you a very wide range of options to write your papers about. Professor feedback was helpful.

If there was ever a teacher that makes you fall in love with a subject because of their passion for the material, it's Jane. She clearly loves what she does. All the assignments are clear and graded fairly. There were 3 papers with lots of opportunity for extra credit/revision. Can't stress enough how amazing her poetry class was, take her class :)

I'm taking her online writing 121 class& love it. I met her in person to late start join her class and she added me immediately. She's the sweetest lady ever. Obviously writing 121 isn't the easiest class but she's a huge help because of the prompts she gives. I actually enjoy reading the textbook. She responds to emails fast& has clear expectat

Ms Zunkel is a fantastic teacher. She lays out the syllabus and schedule on the first day of class. Attendance is key in passing her class. Ms Zunkel is very caring for the success of her students. She speaks clearly and directly and puts forth an incredible effort to assist us along our educational path. Would definitely attend another class.

Awful online class. She was disorganized and took FOREVER to unlock assignments, grade assignments-everything. Constantly extending deadlines because SHE couldn't meet them. Slow responses (if ever) to emails. Terrible feedback until the essay is graded. I figured everything out myself and barely knew where I stood till the class was over.

just started in her online class, so there isn't a ton to say. The class is easy to follow w/minimal hw (4 journals w/readings & 4 essays). My only complaint: the topics for the essays are not interesting. For example, our 2nd essay prompt is to find a word in a dictionary & talk about it including denotations/connotations. Just keep that in mind

If you enjoy putting your thoughts on paper, this will be an easy A. Only 3 essays and the topics were interesting. She gives you freedom within the assignment regarding topic direction. Great feedback to help you become a better writer.

wonderful teacher. Clear and to the point. Doesn't stray too much from course description. Allows revisions of past work to get a better grade. love the fact that she ends class a week before finals to allow students to prepare for other classes. always helpful and is great at making time to meet if you can't see her during office hours.
