Comment:
I do not recommend Dr. Legge for any course, especially online. The whole semester she did not contact her students once, we were expected to guide ourselves through the course material based on her vague syllabus. Her instructions for assignments are vague. She does not make clear what she expects from you. Super tough grader and terrible notes.

Assigns vague assignments which are always hated and adds last minute things on. Harsh when you don't read her mind to give exactly what she wants. Doesn't communicate, course is unorganized, no guidance and left alone to do everything. Wouldn't recommend.

Comment:
She is an extremely hard grader. I worked on a project for many, many hours and received a low grade so the next project I worked on for only a few hours and received an A. Made no sense. I went to see her about my low grade and she argued that she gave me a low grade based on things that weren't true... I'm not even convinced she properly read it.

Comment:
A 1/5 rating is very generous for this prof, she is, by far, the worst professor i've ever had at Memorial University. She has ridiculously high expectations despite giving little to no instructions and absolutely no feedback. She is very rude and known to ignore emails asking simple questions. Her exams are VERY unrealistic. AVOID AVOID AVOID!!

Comment:
Her course was one of the last of my degree and I was VERY disappointed. Having done higher level courses I Can say her expectations and standards are unreasonable for a 2nd level course. Myself along with others in the course had very negative dealings with her. I was very disappointed with my experience and I would strongly suggest you avoid.

Comment:
Dr. Valerie Legge is someone I recommend everyone avoid. Her expectations are unclear and she is a brutal grader. She is incredibly rude and unkind when emailing her and talking to her. It's her way or no way and she makes that very clear. Does not care about the wellbeing of her students and is unnecessarily harsh. Avoid at all costs.

Dr. Valerie Legge is the worst professor I have had so far. She is extremely unclear about what she wants for assignments and gives very little feedback. I remember she gave me a 0 on one of my essays simply because I forgot to include one little reference, and I had all the other references included. She is an awful instructor. AVOID!!!!

She is a very tough grader. I am in her online course so I don't know her to well but I know someone that was in her class that said she was rude. I find the assignments that we have to hand in somewhat unclear. We have to make weekly post and she hasn't given us any grades back on them yet to update us on how we are doing.

The course required a textbook and was mostly based off the textbook and notes given during class. It required a lot of reading. Sometimes the class would feel more like a history lesson then english. Make sure you attend class as she does not use D2L.

Comment:
first 4000 eng (my major) yet it felt like I was taking history instead. Teaching style is almost non-existent, the notes were up online at the being of the semester even tho it was an online course. Her assignments have no outlines with far to much expected for undergraduates. DO NOT TAKE. If i wanted a history course I would have taken one

Dr. Legge does the bare minimum as a prof. I have not received one evaluation yet and there are less than 3 weeks left of lectures. The course is online, she added 200 pages of notes during the first week, assigned 8 novels and we have not heard from her since, except to give evaluation dates. I would never take her class again.

Dr. Valerie Legge is the worst professor I have encountered throughout my University experience. She is extremely unclear about what she wants from students in assignments and discussion posts, takes days to respond to messages and emails, and provide little to no feedback throughout the course. When she does respond, she is brutally rude. Awful.

The course content is interesting, but the professor is rude and disrespectful. Will never take a course with her again. Very vague feedback and takes off marks because you never included something that was not asked of you to include. Overall worst professor I've ever had.

Comment:
One of the worst profs I've had at MUN. She seems to be clear in what she wants on assignments, but on more than one occasion I gave exactly what she asked for, but it was far from good enough to her. She is rude. I had a serious family emergency while taking her class and she made me feel like a horrible person for asking for a one day extension.
