Professor
Sonia Maasik
Most Helpful Review
Fall 2018 - Professor Maasik is just great! She helps engage the class in a polite, yet fun way and offers some activities to sharpen our writing skills. Getting an A is not easy, though, but going to office hours and asking the professor for advice really helps, especially if you want your writing to be clear to the reader (which is the professor herself). One thing I would like to say about this class: watch out for the first essay, as the average grade for that is very low. I tried my hardest on that essay and only earned a B. The other two essays are more flexible as long as your paper makes actual sense. If you decide to take this otherwise enjoyable class, I suggest spending around 5-10 minutes researching about the paramedic method (a skill that the professor will show after the first essay). It really helps.
