Freshman Writing with Mary Annas is definitely one of the easier freshman writing professors you could choose. There's only 4 papers due throughout the semester, and if you get lower than a C you can rewrite it for a better grade. She's a bit quirky, but it's easy to do well especially since 10% of your grade is handing in a first draft on time.ENGW1111 2016-12-17 22:24:40 +0000 UTC
Mary is such a fun professor. Highly recommend without doubt the easiest class of my college life. She helps a lot!ENGL1101 2013-11-20 23:18:40 +0000 UTC
I had Middler Year Writing with her and she was very helpful and sweet. She is interested in everyone's topic and wants to know what you have to say. She seems interested in you becoming a better writer. Lots of due dates and writing...but it is Middler Year Writing!!!ENGU308 2007-01-10 21:32:10 +0000 UTC

She was really great. So nice and fair, and also willing and ready to help you individually whenever you need it. If you are in the Social Sciences, she is probably one of the best people to take Middler Year from, I learned so much!MIDDLERYEAR 2006-05-11 12:00:29 +0000 UTC
I loved this teacher! The topics we talked about were usually interesting. She graded the papers very fairly as well. There is no reason not to do well in this class. She's a little spacey and a little "out there" but I really liked her. She is very helpful, extremely nice, and wants you to do well.ENGU111 2006-03-21 14:21:49 +0000 UTC
stupid class, i hate the topics we learn. i just dont like writing in general, but shes okay, i guess. sorta weird actuallyENGU101 2006-01-18 02:40:21 +0000 UTC
Extremely nice and gives you plenty of chances to do well. As long as you pass the essays in on time, you will do fine. Not too many homework assignments except to watch movies and read 2 or 3 essays. Easier than high school in my opinion.COLLEGEWRITING 2005-09-11 16:26:27 +0000 UTC

Good teacher, she is helpful and mostly wants you to do well. Only problem is that if your viewpoints differ from hers your grade may suffer.COLLWRITING 2005-04-05 12:39:05 +0000 UTC
I'm not into writing at all (science major) but she made the class tolerable. Really understanding teacher. Ended up with bronchitis during the semester and she worked with me to make sure I did well in the class while still putting my health first.ENGW1111 2014-08-04 00:22:38 +0000 UTC
mary annas is awesome!MIDDLERYEAR 2005-09-23 09:03:24 +0000 UTC
Great teacher, really pleasant to deal with. Understanding if you have any issues, so long as you discuss them with her.ENGU111 2005-04-22 15:05:02 +0000 UTC
Weird but nice lady. She's lenient about giving you time on your papers, but you have to put in work.ENGU111 2005-04-04 21:38:32 +0000 UTC
