- there are no quizzes/tests; only practice exams for AP test and these do not count toward your grade - nearly all of your work is graded based on completion; full credit rewarded as long as you present an acceptable quality of your work - plan accordingly with the semester calendar on Google Classroom and keep track of your work - you will mostly learn from your peers as all of the work is finalized by peer review; be a nice human being to your peers - you will have to recite poems a handful of times, but she gives you a reasonable time frame to study

This is not a class for you to take if you just want to take it for GPA boost and expect to get an A with bare minimum work. You will have to negotiate for a grade come at the end of every semester. If you do not have any or bare minimum work as your evidence, expect a C or D. If you do all of the assigned work ON TIME with good quality, you will very likely get an A. If you complete all work, but not always on time, you probably will end with a B. She does not give F letter grades.

Overall really uncaring teacher. Assigns work without any clarifications.
