E100 with Dr. Kelm is a great class! She really cares about each student and it shows. There is a lot of assignments but you will easily see growth in your writing if you pay attention in class. She is easy to talk to, easy to listen to in class, and her feedback was always very thorough and prompt. I really enjoyed this class and Dr. Kelm.Rate My Professors ↗
Professor Kelm has been one of my favorite professors I had at UW-Madison. Took English 100 as an upperclassman and I am so glad I got her. Lots of assignments, but are manageable She truly wants the students to succeed and do well in her class. She puts so much emphasis on everybody becoming a better writer and truly cares about the students.Rate My Professors ↗
