Comment:
Dr. Zonana's online course this summer was excellent. All work was posted very early on, allowing you to work at your own pace. Discussion Board participation was a must. She gives tons of great individualized feedback and is never insulting. Her selection of reading materials for a short term were perfect. Lots of writing, but she loves creativity

Took the online class and it wasn't so bad. It was the 5-week online course. She made it interesting. Last week she stuffed a lot of material into a small amount go time but it can be done. Journals every week and one for extra credit at the end. Final paper was 5pgs.

So boring topics and books. Hard Hard Hard!!! quizzes are hard as well! Don't take her. A lot of reading and writing. You should write at least 700 words on every week. Hard to get a good grade. I DO NOT RECOMMEND HER.

Comment:
Professor is very passionate about English Literature. Very unclear and inconsistent in her grading. Too much work for a 3 credit, online course. Look elsewhere. Word to the professor, nobody majors in English Literature and people don't care about the topic. At least make it interesting and relevant. Who wants to read the Qu'ran and The Odyssey???

There is a lot of reading and a lot of work. If you give it the time and thought, you get the grade. She is fair in her grading, as long as you do the work, you will get a decent grade. I found the course easy and enjoyable.

One of the best professors I've ever had. A lot of work (as a 6 credit course should be) but she's always there to help and is incredibly understanding. Even when I didn't like the material, I learned a lot. If you have the opportunity to take her class, do it! Expect to work hard for your grade though.

Best professor I have ever had. Looked foward to coming to class everyday. You need to do the work. You cannot skate by, but she is fair and reasonable. Really makes herself available to you for help, guidance, etc. Genuinely cares about the students.

I think the English dept. would be lost without a professor as this. She is fair, concise and professional. If you have low-self esteem issues take her class and build confidence. Because she engages every single student and truly wants you to learn and excel. Her grading system is very fair. Opportunity to revise work. In addition to extra credit.

Comment:
I'm actually pretty surprised about the amount of positive comments this professor got. She doesn't follow the syllabus - she actually makes it up as she goes along, which I think is so unprofessional. She made my semester miserable. She can't even grade her own exams...and favors students, and just "teaches" them. Worst teacher I ever had.

Comment:
This is a truly quality professor. Her knowledge of literature is amazing. She carries out meaningful class discussions and expects every person to contribute. Her reading assignments are tough. Her writing assignments are not easy either, but she gives great feedback and allows you to revise. And, best yet, she is a fair grader. You can get an A!

Overall I enjoyed this class although sometimes the professor was not clear on some of the material. She is very fair in her grading and gives you every opportunity to do well. Lateness is her biggest pet peeve, be on time.

I really loved this professor. She made the short story come alive and accessible. Her grading was fair and she had a nice sense of humor about things. Don't side chat in class or come late -- she hates that!
