Clare is the first professor I've had where she leaves a comment on every single assignment. She actually listens to her students and understands how we think and feel. Shes very understanding and a phenomenal role model. I highly reccomend taking her.Rate My Professors ↗
I LOVE PROFESSOR HADEN! Despite this class being entirely asynchronous online, she always had extremely productive and kind things to say in her assignment reviews and always kept me motivated to work hard (and she always graded things freakishly fast, like sometimes within hours. Very useful.) Would recommend her to ANYONE.Rate My Professors ↗
Professor Haden is the best. Completely virtual/no lecture class but she is always extremely active on Canvas and online to grade everything extremely quick. Nothing more to say: we need more professors like her.Rate My Professors ↗
Clare is THE BEST!!! Wanted an easy course for two credits, but ended up learning so many tools that have helped me become a better, more confident speaker. She really cares about her students and always leaves personalized, inspiring feedback. A great course to take even if you're not into theatre. Assignments vary every week and are super fun!!Rate My Professors ↗
As long as you show up and do your best on the work, this is an easy, fun class. Clare is bright, funny, and passionate. She cares about her students and is very flexible about all skill levels and interests in theatre. Readings are fairly short, writing assignments are short and informal, and due dates are easily met. Great extra class to take.Rate My Professors ↗
