Quality 5/5Difficulty 2/5
Michelle is super nice and passionate about social work. Very eager to help and really cares about students. Very picky when it comes to writing guidelines but they are very straight-forward. Writing assignments are easy but tend to be frustrating due to page restrictions.

Quality 5/5Difficulty 1/5
Overall easy class. No final, two easy midterms (if you do review sheets), and 5 easy papers. She is very critical of her students writing and has high expectations so this can lead to tough grading but if you follow the rubric and edit for grammer they are easy. Lecture is almost 90% class discussion so it can get boring.
