Student reviews

Talia Vestri is one of the kindest and most supportive professors I've ever had. I highly recommend her. If you just attend class on time and complete all the assignments, you're definitely going to earn an A.ENGW1111 2025-06-08 01:05:29 +0000 UTC
Dr. V definitely cares for her students wants us to learn, and has a nice grading policy (as long as you do the work - you'll get an A). She also gave us plenty of flex time to use on assignments. It was not an unreasonable amount of work at all, and she always gave us thorough feedback.engw3302 2024-08-11 19:16:05 +0000 UTC
If you do attend every class and complete the papers on time, you are likely to get a good grade. All the papers are graded by effort and completion. The class itself can be a bit boring and non-helpful, but it is a good intro to writing class to take.ENGW1111 2025-03-26 22:38:04 +0000 UTC
Class is graded on completion. Complete your work and you get an A. 2 projects, every week you build on it. Should take around 2 hours a week to complete all assignmentsengw3302 2024-08-05 22:42:52 +0000 UTC
All you have to do is show up on time and submit the work. There isn't much work at all and when there was work you didn't need to spend more than an hour on it. She seemed to be against university as a system of learning which is strange as a yk... university professor? If you can write a high school level essay, you'll get an A.ENGW1111 2025-03-17 19:21:57 +0000 UTC
Easy class, she grades based on completion so as long as you show up and submit assignments on time, you're good. Some of her assignments were a bit annoying and discussions were repetitive. If you speak in discussion she will ask you a ton of follow-up questions, which can get annoying. But she's a good person and tries to make class interesting.ENGW1111 2024-12-04 00:15:31 +0000 UTC
Personal opinions often shine through during teaching, but it usually doesn't get in the way. Great feedback on essays, strong revision process, very nice in general.ENGW1111 2022-11-19 21:28:49 +0000 UTC
She's fine. Very uninspiring class but Prof V is nice enough. If you can write (e.g. did you take English in hs?? are you literate??) you can get an A.ENGW1111 2021-12-20 20:07:43 +0000 UTC
We had homework/reading due for every class but never received any kind of credit so I just stopped doing them. The class was an easy A but we are only graded on the 3 papers. A lot of class is busy work or just working on your paper/peer editing it.ENGW1111 2021-12-11 04:48:18 +0000 UTC
Dr. V is a pretty good English teacher. She does give a ton of feedback, and we have a ton of time in class to work on our papers. While the class is only graded off of three papers, we do spend a lot of time working on them, so it isn't too terrible. She is very reasonable, and she does want to see her students do well.ENGW1111 2021-11-30 02:11:14 +0000 UTC
Dr.V clearly organized every week's schedule and provided ample feedback. We were graded only one a few papers so each one held a lot of wait, but she very much wanted to see every student succeed and was always available to meet outside of class.ENGW1111 2021-11-18 23:31:08 +0000 UTC
We got over HALFWAY through the semester without a single grade. She never put grades in Canvas so you have no idea what your grade is. Instead, she just sent us an email 3/4 of the way through the semester giving us a rough range of what our grade is. The class is graded based on only 3 papers. She gives us homework but we don't get credit for it.ENGW1111 2021-11-18 19:28:01 +0000 UTC
