She is GREAT. She is so helpful, she explains things clearly. When you make a mistake she tells you about it and allows you to resubmit an assignment on some occasions so you can improve your score. This is a Professor who helps you and lifts you up instead of putting you down. Respect her class, follow her instructions and you'll do so well.

Honest truth... overall this class is so pointless.. The articles that she assigns her students are so outdated.. Just say this is the worst class I've ever taken and if you do take this class remember what I said lol

Easy class. She is very clear on what she expects. Attendance is pretty important since she uses an iclicker. The books are interesting, make sure you read them, or at least know them pretty well. Fun class to take for credit, but she is a little dry when she gives lectures. Lots of online quizzes and one group project and 3 essays.

LoL... This class was too easy. I felt guilty for not trying and getting an A. A couple papers, a presentation, and online discussion boards = final grade. I probably spent 1/10 of the time on doing work for this class compared to my other ones. Take it for an EASY A+ if you need it for a GE! That's what I did :-D

Schumate's class is EASY! only 2 papers due, a 3 page and 12 page essays. We rarely met in class at all... most of the time class was canceled. When she is there she hardly clearly answers your questions, she seemed to be preoccupied with her other classes at SDSU (that's what she admitted once). But overall, it's an easy A class.

Comment:
I took Ms. Shumate during Spring 09 semester at Mesa. I think she overloaded her teaching schedule because our class was the least important to her. It was SUPER EASY, only 3 essays! I didn't really learn much in class because class was canceled more than 50% of the time. I really like Shumate and her teaching style, I just wished she was present.

I received B. Hard to pin point what she want in the classes.. the gradings on the paper is totally subjective. Took night short term night classes.. A lot of assignment and no extra credit chances. beware.. may be it's diffrent in nomal sessions but It was not easy for me.

She is a great teacher. I dropped this class twice before I took it with her, and I got an A. She has a great way of explaining things. It's like she's telling a story instead of lecturing. She also doesn't waste your time with busy work. If she can tell you what you need to know in an hour, then that's as long as you stay. It's refreshing.

Great teacher who makes english bearable ;) If you do her assigned coursework and pay attention to her outlines, then an A is very possible! I really enjoyed her class and thought she was a helpful, caring teacher.

If you are taking English 205, you HAVE to take it from her. This was the best class Ive ever taken in college. She is such a sweetheart, super easy papers and projects. Very easy A... You'd be crazy to take it from anyone else.

Excellent teacher. Take her if you do not like English. One big paper, but just follow her outline and you’ll get a very good grade. There is also a newspaper project which is also very easy just do as it is in the outline and you will do fine. For the final it is a presentation, which is graded by
