It may not be indicative of a regular semester. | Professor Elwell is kind and understanding, and creates a welcoming class environment. The readings were a bit long sometimes and the class activities were sometimes time consuming, but overall the class was very rewarding. The class was very discussion-based, generally covering the assigned readings. Grading was very fair and chill (i.e. put in normal effort into your assignments and proofread them and such and you'll get a good grade). The feedback for papers and assignments was thorough and constructive, and once you get into the class rhythm it becomes very straightforward. I recommend her. |

She's also flexible and understanding which makes her classroom environment much more welcoming. The reading in the class is somewhat heavy but totally doable. |
