Do all the homework she assigns. Start essays in advance.

the class can be intense, but it is easier when you have a lot of materials around you (ex: figurative language, how to [write an essay], etc. )

somewhat boring class. attendance counts, so if you really can't focus, just do other homework. very disorganized and can get passive aggressive. she's a sweet person though

She doesn’t really make you write essays more of a answer this question and write a lot. Super super nice doesn’t like people who are late tho or skip too often. Easy b if you put in no effort. Easy A if you do a little more than the bare minimum. I finished with a 90 and i didn’t always do the hw but I was always present
