ENGL 361
Quality 4/5Difficulty 1/5
Easy class, fun to take. Graded super nicely but only graded the midterm. Never received any grade or feedback for my final, which was irritating. Otherwise, lectures were short, and did not require extensive reading or anything.

This woman is quite literally the best professor I have ever had. I would take this class on so many different levels.

ENGL 169
Quality 5/5Difficulty 1/5
My absolute queen. She is an engaging speaker so lectures were more interesting because of how she tells her stories. The projects are creative and not too hard. The reading pace is fast but like lowkey not mandatory and she does give little breaks so it's chill and she kind of makes up for the fact that the books can be boring.

Easiest literature class you could take. Lectures were overall pretty engaging, even if you didn't read the novels ahead of time. It is clear that Anja cares about her students and wants them to succeed.

Quality 5/5Difficulty 1/5
Professor Anja is a very kind professor, her lectures are based on the books but also her life expierences and helping her students. Attendence in discussion counts towards most of grade. The classload is light, mostly reading along with 3 easy writtings/projects. Final exam :10 reading questions(basic comprehension).

Professor Anja is super sweet and her lectures are very inspiring. Readings were assigned but not checked and there was hardly any homework at all; if there was any, it was lightly graded. Super cool teacher and super cool class!
