Comment:
She was by far the worse teacher I ever had. She is so condescending and unwilling to help students at all. It feels as though she wants you to fail. I do not recommend taking her if you want a good grade.

Would not recommend taking this course with this professor. The online class was not very organized and the professor did not respond to emails or if there was a response it took a long time to get.

She is an awful woman! Her class is easy if you know how to write, but she is condescending and treats students like they are idiots. If you don't mind being patronized go ahead and take her class, but I warned you.

Nice lady, but not the best teacher...took WRIT 122 in spring semester, was informed that my essays were good, and that there wasn't a lot of work to do on them...recieved 2.5 on portfolio with no explanation as to why, also failed to return contact after three attempts...she didn't communicate well enough what is being looked for, lacks enthusiasm

Comment:
She doesn't act interested in her student's success in the class and when we filled out our teacher evaluations, (which have to be done by a student, not the professor), she waited to have us do them in front of her when we came in to get our final grade!!!! I'm not sure how she's still teaching!

Comment:
Repeatedly read my essays before submission and assured me that they were fully capable of passing well above the minimum. The results were given and I had failed the class. She had no response. Very bad teacher. Also gave the same lecture 6 times in a row. My notes were valid for 6 classes.

Comment:
Do not listen to the last comment. They are the ignorant one who thinks their opinion trumps everyone else and thinks they look smart by using bigger and seldom used words... This professor has a bad rating for a reason. Most of the negative comments I read are 100% accurate.

Rejects her own revisions! Will speak over you while you're trying to explain something or ask a question. Left EARLY on portfolio day so when I went home and made revisions on an essay I wanted to use for my portfolio and came back, she was gone. Wouldn't respond to my e-mail until 2 days later. Told me "you'll do fine with the other one" BS!

Comment:
She would suggest revisions and then harshly criticize them when made, even though she basically wrote them. She NEVER replied to any emails, even urgent ones. She left early when turning in and when receiving portfolios like it's not imperative to one's grade that students get to turn them in or not. I could keep going but there's not enough space

Comment:
Worst writing teacher at this school. The class was about writing arguementative essays. We NEVER opened the book all semester. She never gave any instruction what so ever on how to properly form the essays. The only thing she went over in class was use of MLA handbook and how to use the library databases. Aviod if all possible.

Comment:
I was really disappointed with her as an instructor. I honestly got more help from the writing center than from here. We never used the book and on top of that she took about 6 weeks to get the syllabus to us for the class. Overall I was really disappointed in her teaching

Comment:
Dr. Bayliss was a very good instructor. She lets you know your weaknesses very clearly. She also allows you to revise your papers any time until the deadline. The only bad thing is that she tends to teach material that should have been taught weeks before. We never used the book either. I would recommend her to anyone who is going to take WRIT 122.

Comment:
I personally thought that Linda was a pretty good teacher. She's very knowledgealbe and really helps you improve your weaknesses. One problem I have with her is that she teaches material that should already been lectured a long time ago. Also, don't be surprised if there are a lot of red marks on your paper. But it really helps you in the long run.
