I really loved McEachern as my 10A professor. Yes, she does talk fast, and you do have to scramble to write everything she says, at the end of the day, she knows what she's talking about. She unpacked 10A and made me love the text, that would otherwise be dry and confusing. I went to her during her office hours, and she really helps you look at things a different way. McEachern teaching 10A was honestly the deciding factor in me declaring English as a major.

The teacher is great. She really explains well and is to the point. What the hell is up with the TA's?! They think they are so superior it's so stupid. Beware of Samir--he grades VERY harshly. You think he is helping you out, and you try your best....to end up with a terrible and unexpected grade. McEachern is really cool and I did learn from the class; however, b/c of my TA I despised the class. Don't take Samir if you can avoid him!

Fall 2017 - Nice enough but a harsh grader. Her office hours are super early (8am) so be prepared if you have questions. She Lectures but they’re really disorganized so be prepared to just scramble when taking notes. She is anti laptops so you’ll have to do pen and paper. Her reading quizzes are SO HARD! She expected close reading which basically meant remembering every random symbol, scene or action. The tests (midterm and final) are better but I wouldn’t take this class unless you’re really into shakespeare and have the time to dedicate to it
