ENGL 505
Quality 5/5Difficulty 3/5
The best. Super flexible and caring, you could tell she really enjoys both her students and subject matter. If you have a question about her class material or policies, just reach out to her, she wants to work with you! If you have a chance to take a class with her, do it!

LOVED having prof. Letak this semester. If you have the option to take this course please do. She teaches us so many important things about mental health and genuinely cares about all her students.

It is hard to find a professor better than prof Letak. She clearly plans all of her lectures for a long time and makes them very clear and easy to follow, as well as very engaging. She is a very caring professor and is great at what she does

Professor Letak has been my favorite professor at UW so far. She is an amazing lecturer and really cares about her students health. There are 4 quizzes which aren't too difficult and she is always available to meet out of class time. Papers are relatively easy and she makes lectures super interesting. Highly recommend.

Abby is a fantastic teacher and she really is my favorite prof in this school. She is caring, humorous, and knowledgable, especially she is young. She gives great examples for difficult terms and explain them in simple ways. No exams just really easy quizzes. Attendance occupies a lot in final grade. Just go to class and you will be fine!

Definitely one of my favorite professors. Her lectures were very easy to understand and follow, but you need to show up to lecture to pass. She made learning engaging & enjoyable. She really cares about how well students are doing in her class. Assignments are spaced out and she doesn't have midterms, just papers, quizzes, & discussion posts.
