Mrs. Dolar is the most stress-inducing, inconsistent teacher I and many others have ever had. I do not exaggerate when I say that everybody in her class despises her as a teacher. She is a nice person but a bad teacher. She gives way too much work and rarely gives you enough time to complete the task. My suggestion would be to beg your counselor to move you to another class because that is the only real way to save yourself a very hard and spoiled 9th and 10th-grade experience.

- this class will prepare you for everything in life, I took regular 10th grade English and am currently a sophomore biology major on the pre med track, and I have yet to see a class more difficult and require more work than Ms. Dolar’s 10th grade general English class (honors was 100 times worse) - annotations will take you about 3-4 hours, one time I turned in my annotations and got an A, next time I wrote them the exact same way and got a C - my friend was in her honors English class and got a C on his annotations and the next time they had to turn annotations in, he turned in the same exact annotations and she gave him an A even though those annotations were not even the actual assignment - doing all of the work/instructions gives you a C because it meets the expectation. To receive a B, you must go above and beyond and to receive an A you must have put your whole life into the assignment - on the first essay, the highest grade was an 80% - on one essay we completed, my friend had his previous English teacher look at it and he said it would deserve probably an 87-92% and she gave him a 54%
