Dr. Tiffany is a great fit if you're a serious English major and enjoy reading anything Shakespeare. She isn't for those who aren't pursuing that field or don't take English Lit. classes very seriously. But overall, a great class to take with her if you have the same passion for Shakespeare as her. Otherwise, don't take any of her classes. |

Dr. Tiffany's classes aren't to be taken lightly despite what level they are because she will make you work for your grade. That said, don't skip of her any classes because there are tons of pop quizzes and test over each play at random. If you're only taking this class as a gen. ed., you probably should reconsider taking her. She's for ENG majors. |

Dr. Tiffany is very passionate about Shakespeare and Renaissance Literature that it is contagious to many of the serious English majors. That said, if you're looking for an easy A, then she isn't that professor for you. Her classes aren't something to blow off in, so don't skip class. She has exams/tests/quizzes over each story read. Not too bad. |

Dr. Tiffany is amazing at teaching Renaissance Literature to undergrads with interesting selections. Although they mostly consist of plays and sonnets written by Shakespeare, they're very familiar ones from what we read and discussed in middle and high school. Don't slack. She is not for those who are looking to earn good grades with little effort. |

Dr. Tiffany is one of the most stellar instructors that Western has to offer and highly recommend her to any serious English major. She is one of the most caring and lenient instructors that I have encountered at this school. As long as you show up, participate, and put forth your honest effort into the papers, you will pass with flying colors. |

If you're going to major in English and are very serious about it, I recommend that you take a few classes with Dr. Tiffany. She will prepare you for graduate studies in Renaissance Literature, including Shakespeare. Like what others have said, don't take her classes if you're the type of student who wants to skate through them without any effort. |

I have taken ENGL 1100, ENGL 2520, ENGL 3300, and ENGL 4520 with Grace Tiffany and thought that she was a fair professor. Although she may be tough, she is lenient and cares about the well-being and success of her students. I recommend her to anybody pursuing an English major because she is for those who are serious in that field. Not for slackers. |

Grace Tiffany is a well-respected professor in Western's English Department, there's no denying that. She is, however, not for those who are non-English majors. She is so passionate about the material that you have to like it as much as her. If you're not interested in Brit. Lit. or Shakespeare, you won't be too fond of her and her classes. |

Grace Tiffany will challenge your thinking through several readings prior to the Renessaince era. Tests/quizzes are tricky so read the books. The people who sign up for her classes don't put in the work as she expects them to. Don't take this class if you're looking for an easy A because it won't happen. She will make you work for your grade. |

Grace Tiffany was an okay professor for Brit. Lit. and Shakespeare and would only recommend her for those who are into reading deeply into the material. Beware that she gives out quizzes/tests often, so her classes aren't something to blow off and slack off in. Show up, read what she assigns, and you should pass no problem. |

Dr. Tiffany is a good teacher who is passionate about the subject of Brit. Lit. and Shakespeare and it shows. Don't take this class if you don't like showing up and doing the readings because there are a ton of quizzes and tests on each book/play. She is the kind of professor for serious students only, not slackers. So take it if you're interested. |

Dr. Tiffany is a very serious professor for very serious students, especially those who are very serious English majors. Some may not like her that much due to her high expectations, but I think she was fair in her grading criteria and class expectations. Don't take this class if you intend to blow off because you won't do well. |

Dr. Tiffany was an awesome professor for Shakespeare and Renaissance Lit. I recommend her for any early Brit. Lit. survey she teaches to those who are serious about pursuing English as their major. Don't expect to skate through this class and receive an A with ease. You have to work for your grade, so no questions asked. Overall, great instructor! |

Dr. Tiffany is an excellent professor for Shakespeare and Brit. Lit. I and recommend both of those classes with her to any serious English major. She is not the kind of professor who hands out As very easily, so expect to work hard for one. Show up, do the readings, participate, study, write, and you should be fine. Otherwise, don't take the class. |

Dr. Tiffany was a good instructor for Shakespeare and is very passionate about the subject. I would recommend her to anybody who is very serious about pursuing an English major. She may be tough, but also fair in what she expects out of you. This class is not something to blow off in because there's a lot of reading and writing involved. Show up! |

Professor Tiffany is very nice. We read Shakespeare, which she really enjoys. She expects that you already know how to read and understand Shakespeare so it can be hard when you don't really understand. She encourages anticipation, it is worth a grade. Overall, I thought she was just an alright English professor. |

Dr. Tiffany is a very tough professor when it comes to grading. She's not afraid to tell you that your paper is terrible and needs to be redone. She's more than happy to assist you with your paper if you're struggling but you have to ask! I would take her again for another course and suggest you take her. |

Dr. Tiffany is hands down one of my favorite professors. She is so sweet and very passionate about her subject matter. She gives great feedback and is very helpful when it comes to the work she assigns. She is very helpful and she really made me love writing even more. Just know the class is two hours, and it feels like two hours. Every time. |

Dr. Tiffany was amazing. I felt more confident about my papers after meeting with her during office hours. She makes you work for that A or B so get ready and come to class prepared, but she is the sweetest and hands down AMAZING. She also wants her students to stay in touch after leaving her class, which is also awesome. I highly recommend her! |

Grace Tiffany is the best. She pushes her students very hard to be their best. You will put a lot of work into this class but it is worth it. She will know everybody by name and give great feedback. She truly cares about her students and will do everything she possibly can to help you. All you have to do is ask. |
