Comment:
I loved having Lisa as a professor, super fun class! Not a whole lot of homework, just a couple super short papers. Involves a lot of writing but... its a creative writing class so. Maybe Im biased towards creative writing but this was my favorite class this semester! Highly suggest her as a teacher!

Comment:
Lisa cares about her students success but only if it reflects well on her. Too self absorbed, spends too much time talking about her personal life and her own issues. Much of class is taken up with irrelevant matters. She can be rude and grading is often unhelpful, because literally anything can be poetry and cant be graded by the standard ways.

Comment:
Lisa Zimmerman has no problem being obvious about disliking specific students and/or picking favorites. She will outright tell you your work is childish or shallow. She clearly only wants to hear from those with similar political beliefs or viewpoints as her own. She does not make her students feel equal or respected in her class.

Her passion is contagious and inspiring. She is extremely honest. If something sucks, she has no problem telling you, but she will then work with you until BOTH you and her absolutely love the product. Her teaching style is something I hope to someday incorporate into my own classroom.

Zimmerman was, yes challenging, but her grading was not. She was truthful and at times a little to polite with grades :) which is not a bad thing. I loved her courses and her and recommend taking her courses.

Very easy grader. Show up, because she takes attendance and participation seriously. This class is an easy pass - its essentially a book club for English majors.

Lisa is likely one of the best professors at UNCO. Her poetry classes are inspiring, and students who didn't write poetry walked out of her class at the end of the semester with portfolios full of great stuff. I highly recommend taking this professor for any course she offers.

She's very passionate about the class subjects however she does talk too much about her personal life and it can become exhausting. As long as you show up to class you'll do fine. She is a HUGE self-promoter, every class lecture is accompanied by her talking about a book she has written that we should "check out."

I really liked her a lot. She obviously cared for your work on a personal level and would help you with anything you needed. Very easy to work with, directions were really clear. Great class, fantastic teacher. Highly recommend her. My class got extremely close and she had a lot to do with it.

Lisa is phenomenal! She is great at what she does, so she knows what she's doing. This was her first year teaching Intro to Creative Writing, but she did spectacularly. I didn't think I could write poetry, and because of her, I received an honorable mention in a writing contest. There will never be enough praise for this woman.

She is a true gem--one of the professors that makes English education at UNCO worth all the hard work, money, and time. If you are at all interested in poetry, take one of her classes. You will leave her class a better poet and a more enlightened person.

She is a great prof. She understands her students and is very through when explaining them to students. She loves the subject. Be careful to stay up on reading as she does quiz from time to time and she is very serious about the reading. Participation is MANDATORY!
