Comment:

I had a 100 in this class up until the last week when she changed the due date of our final paper from the date on the syllabus. She gave me a zero despite me contacting her twice about it. If you take this class due dates are NOT final and she will change them WITHOUT telling you. She will not take anything late or give partial credit.

I learned more in high school. She is nice but she can be unclear. Everything has a deadline and theres no way to fix it. That class felt pointless. Just random topics to write about all the time and 5 page essays.

Comment:

I never did well on essays in the past, but she taught us strategies to being a better writer, and never made less than a B on an essay again in any class! The prompts for essays are confusing to understand, but once you get the hang of them, they aren't that hard to write. She is also really funny and is ALWAYS available to help when needed.

She's strict on deadlines even on quiz/discussions. She tells poorly about the assignments, and she won't give you any another chance or extra credit at all. If you're busy with work/family and taking this class, good luck. she has no mercy, If you bomb one test/essay, that grade is what you get.

Wrote about 4 official papers/projects for this class and they were all over interesting topics. The books she chose were very interesting. Her class discussions and in-class writings were over topics that engaged 100% of the class so she makes participation easy. She likes to make her class laugh. Very good at clear feedback also.

Do the work get an A. There are 10 quizzes and you get 3 attempt on each one and it gives you the answers after the first attempt so its impossible to not get a 100 on those. There are 10 discussion post and those are standard. And 5 essays that are standard difficulty they are easy grader. Overall if you do everything and try you'll get a A

This class did not have a high work load and was a great learning opportunity to strengthen my writing skills. The teacher was always super quick to grade and easy to get in touch with. I highly recommend trying out this online class with Professor Bettacchi, it was great.

I tried to reach out to her a handful of times because I had a question about an essay and she never replied. Hard to reach outside of class unless you actually go to her. Very kind though. Just do the papers and show up the last few days for your final and you'll pass. Didn't really give much feedback for our papers.

Comment:

Professor Bettacchi is actually a very kind person. Her class is easy to pass as long as you do the work she gives you. Personally I don't think what she taught during class had any meaning with any of the papers she asked us to write. Random topics as well. I wouldn't take her again because she doesn't prepare you for ENGL 1302.

Online Course: She is a very easy grader, however, I felt I did not learn much. The discussions are not hard to understand. I had done 5 essays and they were fairly graded for someone who is terrible at writing papers.

Prof. Bettacchi is very sweet! Her assignments are simple and she is an easy grader, but sometimes she does announce extra things over blackboard. She was very kind and cares about her students greatly. If you do the work, you will make an A. Offers extra credit.

It is so simple to make an A in this class, just do your work and also she has a lot of extra credit to give. If I had a question she answered it really well, from time to time when I see her I still talk to her.

Bettacchi is an amazing professor that is there for her students. She is always available for the smallest of questions you might have and explains everything perfectly. There are several HW assignments but if you take your papers to the writing lab you get extra credit and you are almost guaranteed an A if you do so. Take her you won't regret it.

Worst!! By the end of the class, she doesn't upgrade all the grades and she gives you a wrong final grade and when you complain, she gives u a slightly higher grade. If you are doing an online class, don't take her class!!

Not exactly the most qualified Composition teacher ever, but a very sweet lady and easy grader. Forgot to do the final powerpoint presentation and was able to do it while in class and presented it and still made a 100. Do the work get a 100. Dont do the work and get a 50. Easiest grader ever. DOES NOT PREPARE YOU FOR COMP II.

She likes to discuss in class. Take notes. Most of what she discusses is what is on the test. The more you participate, the more she likes you. Had a midterm and final, but over everything she covered. 3 major papers, but one was an opinion paper. She is very kind and is willing to help those who need help. An easy A if you read and participate. T
