Greetings Dr. Wagner:

 

I just wanted to comment on Dr. Sawyer's ELED 611-05A class.  Dr. Sawyer is an awesome professor. She began from the very beginning of the semester presenting us with valuable information for this class.  Her syllabus was laid out perfectly and all of her students knew her expectations, due dates for assignments and grading procedures for all assignments. She is very professional and is always there to answer any questions that I may have. It is sometimes hard for a student to communicate with an instructor when taking an online class, but Dr. Sawyer always made it her business to respond to all of my emails in a timely and professional manner. She kept the class as a whole engaged in class discussions and even offered feedback that would help with future assignments.

 

I have thoroughly enjoyed ELED 611-05 this semester and I hope that I can take other classes with Dr. Sawyer as my instructor.

 

Sincerely,

 

Althea A. Gwynn
