Actual class was Eng 131B

Very great teacher! She truly cares about her students. This class was very applicable to the work place environment. Every project that we did was given strong feedback with detailed information for improvement. Enjoyed the course overall. A bit of busy work, but is completely manageable. Good way to end the Senior year!

By far the most useful class I took as an undergrad. Anyone with any interest in teaching or education would benefit from this class. Dr. Velez is well organized, articulate, helpful, and kind. She provides clear rubrics for every assignment, and she is willing to work with students. The assignments and workload all serve a clear purpose and really made me a better student.

Overall a good course. She is willing to work with you on assignments and getting a good grade is very easy and fair because her rubrics are very clear. Attendance and weekly readings are required so be prepared to stay consistent with attendance and weekly reading reading responses. You should expect to teach English (through tutoring) so that is pretty fun and you learn how to improve your own teaching style. Here is the course breakdown:

Reading responses: 20%
Group/Class Participation (Attendance): 20%
Demonstration Lesson (Group Project): 20%
Tutoring Journal: 20%
Professional Development Artifact: 20%
