ENGL 145 Freshman Grade Earned: B General Ed 10:34 am, Apr 2, 2013 Report Evaluation		SADIE IS SO AWESOME. She is such a kind hearted, smart, hilarious woman. I wish there were more professors like her at Poly. She is very understanding and wants the best for her students. I HIGHLY recommend her. She cancelled class every once in a while which is nice. But at the same time, I loved going to her class everyday and I was bummed when i couldn't see her! She is a fair grader if you are moderately good at writing papers. Quizzes are easy. She's just amazing, wish I could have her again!

ENGL 149 Freshman Grade Earned: A Required (Support) 5:26 pm, Mar 26, 2013 Report Evaluation		She was a great teacher, always engaging and fun. I learned a lot about tech writing too, which was great! She plays favorites a lot though, so go to her office hours! Also, it's pretty much impossible to get an A in the class, but she gives out A-'s like it's nobody's business

ENGL 134 Freshman Grade Earned: B Elective 2:46 am, Mar 14, 2012 Report Evaluation		Best teacher ever! She is hilarious and also very nice and understanding. She is very approachable and truly wants her students to all do well. Another plus is that she tends to cancel class every once in a while. She is truly amazing.

ENGL 145 Sophomore Grade Earned: A General Ed 6:28 pm, Jan 8, 2012 Report Evaluation		Sadie was an awesome professor, and I definitely recommend her to anyone taking eng 145. I had some trouble with my essays throughout the quarter and let her know that I was struggling, and she was extremely helpful and understanding. I always felt that she was very approachable and she gave great advice whenever I came to her with questions. Also, I got my first A ever at poly in this class. Great teacher, take her if you can.

ENGL 149 Sophomore Grade Earned: A Required (Support) 3:36 pm, Jun 7, 2011 Report Evaluation		Sadie is the best teacher I've ever had! She is super nice and really funny!! She also grades pretty easily so just do the work and you'll get an A or B! It's actually fun to go to class with her!

ENGL 133 Freshman Grade Earned: A General Ed 1:39 pm, May 13, 2011 Report Evaluation		Sadie is one of the best English teachers I have ever had. I don't really like English, but I was always excited to attend this class. Sadie is funny and very helpful. In this class we had some assignments, and 3 essays. She is very flexible with essay topics. In office hour she is willing to sit down and talk to you about your essay. She gives helpful suggestions to better your essay. She also allowed us to revise every essay for a better grade. Take her she is the best English teacher. I would definitely take another class with Sadie!

ENGL 133 Freshman Grade Earned: A General Ed 12:17 am, Feb 28, 2011 Report Evaluation		Sadie is absolutely my favorite teacher. English was my worst subject in high school because I was an international student. In Sadie's class, however, I was completely transformed. She wholeheartedly helped me on every aspect of my writing and had very good understanding of the points that I want to make. Although, when I was taking her, she went through a tough time with her health, she still strives to make it to classes, keeping the class on track and of course entertaining. I always loved her sarcasm. Taker while you still have a chance. It will very likely be one of those classes that you feel comfortable going to. Oh and like others have said, 4 essays if you're in 134, 3 for me cause i'm in 133 (ESL class), some in class exercises and small writing assignments but only the essays count towards your grades.



ENGL 145 Sophomore Grade Earned: A General Ed 1:17 pm, Jan 3, 2011 Report Evaluation		TAKE HER! She makes a very boring class very entertaining. Class is basically really short and quick assigned readings with a few questions to turn in for participation (that\'s the only reason I went to class, other than that she is absolutely hilarious). And you almost always get out at LEAST an hour early. Your grade consists of basically 3 essays that are as open ended as you can possibly get. She appreciates witty and unique topics so try to stay away from boring ones that she\'s probably read a million times. If you need help with an essay get a draft done because she\'ll go over the whole thing and give you pointers. I would take her again if she taught another writing class besides 134 and 145!

ENGL 145 Sophomore Grade Earned: N/A General Ed 6:00 pm, Nov 16, 2010 Report Evaluation		Take her!!!! I actually look forward to going to class because she\'s hilarious and makes it a ton of fun! There really isn\'t too much work, mostly just essays, but you get plenty of time to work on them and she\'s very helpful with telling you what you need to improve.

ENGL 149 Sophomore Grade Earned: A Required (Support) 2:48 am, Oct 9, 2010 Report Evaluation		If you actually want to learn about technical writing, then I wouldn\'t recommend her because she really didn\'t teach much at all. She cancels class all the time, so if you want a free hour in your schedule I highly recommend her. Otherwise, she grades fairly but allows you to do revisions on any essays (when I took the class, there was only one major essay). When there actually is class, she makes it fairly entertaining, but like I said, you really won\'t learn much, and you will probably be let out after 30 minutes. Overall, if you want an easy time you should take her, but you probably won\'t learn very much. All you need to get a good grade is to socialize with her. She wears long skirts. I am drunk. Hot ankles?

ENGL 134 Freshman Grade Earned: A Required (Major) 11:07 pm, May 23, 2010 Report Evaluation		Absolutely Awesome. The class is very simple to follow. Write whatever you want that pertains to the subject and just explode all your ideas onto the paper. She is great at just making you feel like writing. I know I HATE writing, but since I got to choose what to write about, I loved it! She is a must have, don\'t graduate without her. :)

ENGL 134 Freshman Grade Earned: B General Ed 11:29 pm, May 11, 2010 Report Evaluation		Sadie is definitely a cool teacher. For one thing, she lets you call her Sadie. Also, her favorite movie is The Big Lebowski... enough said. Anyway, she tries to make the class fun, but it\'s ENGL 134, so don\'t expect too much. Also, she likes to take as many furloughs as she can.

ENGL 134 Freshman Grade Earned: A General Ed 10:49 am, Jan 1, 2009 Report Evaluation		Sadie is an awesome lecturer. She got married and used to be Sadie Martin so if you want more reviews look at those. There are four essays one being the final. A few short responses that are really easy. I was terrible at english all through high school and I did really well in this class. Sadie allows you to revise all of your essays until you get the the grade you want and your grade can only go up. Also Sadie is a great teacher to have if you get stuck with or want a 7:10am class! Take Sadie Johann!
