Student Testimonies

"Mariah genuinely cares about her students, and you can tell that she takes time to plan out an engaging lesson. She made me fall in love with writing again."

"Mariah was particularly engaged in making sure that each student had a clear understanding of the process we were working on. She also allowed us to expand and test different ideas that may not have fit directly in the plan, but allowed us as students to gain a deeper understanding of the material."

"Professor Mariah Sebastiani provided a fun and welcoming learning environment and gave plenty opportunity to think critically and grow as learners, and writers. Several times I had reached out for assistance, and she provided clear and helpful instructions. She also gives thorough and detailed comments back on assignments to improve for upcoming assignments."  

"The learning environment in English 101 was inclusive and engaging. We didn't just get assigned a paper and then were expected to make it happen. We got the opportunity to learn about the writing process and how each of our processes will look a little different. We were given all of the tools and shown how to use them and then given the freedom to put those tools into practice as worked for each of us."

"I felt that Mariah challenged her students to think critically but in a sense that she was there if they needed any questions or had any concerns. She made the course a very good environment and the activities within class helped each student get closer with each other."
