Quality 5/5Difficulty 2/5
Great person and teacher. It's easy to relate to her, and she is always there if you need help. Her feedback is great, and I learned a LOT about my writing from this class. Take this clas with Sunny!

Quality 4/5Difficulty 1/5
If you work hard on your papers and show improvement between drafts you can easily get an A in the class. Sunny is a good teacher, however at times she comes off as a bit judgmental and a little disrespectful. Class can be rather pointless and her writing prompts can be confusing. However, overall, not hard to do well.

Quality 4/5Difficulty 4/5
This TA singlehandedly saved this disorganized messy class for me. Lectures were useless but her discussion sections actually taught things. If you're choosing between sections and she's one of the TAs choose that one.
