She is so sweet and caring and it is clear she genuinely cares about her students. She never made the class stressful and made any rules/guidelines clear from the start of class. She made me enjoy writing again! Her TA is also very nice and chill.ENGW1114 2025-12-20 01:27:17 +0000 UTC
Best Professor in the world!ENGW1111 2025-11-21 20:43:12 +0000 UTC
Emily is super sweet and an easy and helpful grader, but kind of exhausts group work. I feel like I barely wrote in this class, it was a lot of creative assignments. Feels like a high school class. She isn't a super engaging lecturer but overall her class was easy and the assignments were totally manageable.ENGW3315 2023-04-20 21:12:35 +0000 UTC
Professor Emily was great. Highly recommend this class because since there is a service aspect you have way less homework than other first year writing course. Professor Emily is super sweet and super understanding if something happens. Her TA is useless so no need to pay any attention to her.ENGW1114 2025-04-19 22:10:44 +0000 UTC
Great professor, accepts late work and is super understanding if you can't attend class or something, just email her. Class is often discussion heavy but you don't have to participate if you don't want. Honestly a really great semester. She doesn't have an intense rubric for most assignments but if you ask she'll give specificsENGW1111 2023-12-12 06:05:46 +0000 UTC
Extremely easy 3rd year writing class. No lectures, just occasional readings that you don't get tested on. Just remember to do your discussion board posts on time and put marginal effort into the 4 main assignments - and you will get an easy A. She is also extremely nice and caring. Highly recommend.ENGW3315 2021-12-22 12:44:28 +0000 UTC
The sweetest professor ever! She is super caring and wants the best for all of her students. The class itself is chill and is a very collaborative and welcoming environment. I honestly looked forward to class every week because Emily is very passionate and optimistic. Overall, this is a great class to take 10/10!!ENGW1114 2025-04-18 03:46:13 +0000 UTC
Thought this class would be a pain, but I really enjoyed it! Professor Avery-Miller is super laid back, her writing assignments are fun and thought provoking. Really got to know people in my class and looked forward to it every week, if you need ENGW1111 take it with her, highly recommend!ENGW1111 2023-05-10 00:26:21 +0000 UTC
BEST PROFESSOR EVER. If you plan on taking any writing class, please take Emily. She is super kind and respectful to her students. She dedicates so much time to the course, which creates a sense of community within our class. Emily is very open-minded, optimistic, and understanding so assignments are not only easy, but are stress relieving.ENGW1114 2025-04-01 15:35:45 +0000 UTC
