Awful

This professor made me despise reading and writing despite the fact that I am actually an avid reader and writer. Rather than giving useful feedback for your essays, Prof. Stephens focuses on busy work instead. The only feedback she gives is the word count requirement which I find useless. Personally, I think she is a lazy professor. She lacks passion and creativity.

Biography

Northern Kentucky University - English

Marketing, Communications, Writer, Educator
Writing & Editing
Sarah J.
Stephens
Cincinnati, Ohio Area
I believe in the power of language and that the written word can change the world, however I also believe that actions resonate louder than the most clearly spoken word as it is not enough to put a voice to goodness, integrity, inspiration, passion, patience, authenticity, etc., instead it is by living these attributes that we become changers and leaders.

Regardless of the position I hold within an organization I believe in living the qualities that make a great leader. As part of a team I believe it is possible to far exceed even our own expectations by being true to our passions and ourselves. It is the belief that by inspiring others I empower them to be authentic, passionate, open-minded, and to share their talents. I believe in becoming a force within the industry by being attentive to the needs of others and honestly looking for solutions that fit their needs and desires.


Experience

  • Northern Kentucky University

    Adjunct Instructor of College Writing

    Technical Writing, College Writing, and Advanced College Writing

    Every message has to be relayed with attention to a specific audience for a specific purpose. That is true for writing and communicating in the business world as well as in academia. Therefore, I teach the study and practice of writing with attention to audience, purpose, and conventions appropriate to writing situations.

    My courses embody rhetorical knowledge, critical thinking and reading, and understanding the choices made by those who create communications in written, verbal, or multimedia formats. With a firm grasp of writing situations - opportunity, message, audience analysis, purpose, and language, students create researched, academic prose and make use of multi-media platforms.

    It is my understanding of the principals of effective communication in the business world for purposes of Marketing, Sales, information, etc. that guides my curriculum and keeps me abreast of the latest technologies available for students to use in their academic and professional lives.
