Comment:

When choosing my classes for the spring semester, I took into account reviews from this website. I read reviews of both praise and admonishment. But, after the first few classes with him I recognized that he has true passion and truly cares for his students. yes there is a lot of work but, he helps alot with conferences before an essay is due.

Comment:

Professor Jones is a great teacher, but confusing in what he says sometimes. Sometimes, it's not clear what he wants, but he is very helpful in conferences and helps you with your essays. You use the textbooks A LOT and he tries to get you to think on a deeper level.

Comment:

Prof Jones is a really nice person. He has a great personality, but that is not always enough. You can tell he is an intelligent person, but his assignments are not clear at all. You really need to work for your grade. Incorporate as much personal experience as you can into your papers; he really likes that. His assignments are unrealistic.

Comment:

Prof. Jones is a cool dude. He is the head of the English department and not going to lie... is a tough grader. Even though he gives a substantial amount of work, he puts in a lot of work toward the class and helps the students individually which is really cool. I wouldn't say he is awful and you should def look into him!

Definitely try to avoid this guy if you can. He's a nice guy to talk to and he truly cares about the class but I feel that he just approaches everything in the wrong way. He will have stupid discussions on the books we read and everyone will stay silent. Snow day? Too bad, he has an online class and marks you absent if you don't "attend".

Comment:

Well this was my least favorite class out of the semester. He gives a lot of unnecessary and unrealistic work pertaining to the material. You will probably not receive higher than a C in a paper unless you are AMAZING at writing. And most of the time he left many students confused about hw assignments. Nice guy, but Please avoid this professor.

Comment:

At first, he was a decent professor- somewhat over-analytical and sarcastic. When it comes down to essays, my God have mercy on your soul. Prevent if you can! I doubted this site under the influence of my mentor, but I should have listened.

worst professor ever ! very sarcastic, does not help you when you are struggling, criticizes students, thinks he is better than everyone, runs through assignments, all he cares about is if there is enough time, the list goes on.... AVOID if you can.

Good intentions but is entirely unrealistic with expectations. Gives a heavy workload that no other professors for the course do. Made my life miserable, avoid him if you can. No one gets an A

Comment:

Jones was the best! He is so nice and will take a personal interest in you if he sees youre struggling. Reading the stories are mandatory and will love if you come up with different perspectives on stories. He helped me VASTLY with all of my papers because he assigns a lot of rough drafts, but overall you become a better writer cause of it

Comment:

Professor Jones is a very strict grader and gives tons of work throughout the semester. He wants you to become like a profession writer or something. All his work is due at 9am in the morning in blackboard. The only good thing is that it made me a better writer but the class was sometimes boring and challenging.

Comment:

If you want to take a class where an earned 94% is an A- and not an A, take this class. It seems Professor Jones is above normal grading, plays favorites, and is a total drag. His class put everyone in it to sleep, he graded way to hard, and all he will do is bring down your GPA. DO NOT TAKE HIM!!

Get ready to write your fingers to the bones and have your brain ground to dust. Ejones won't shut up about politics and he's pretty liberal so if your not into either of those and unless you love writing essays forever TRANSFER NOW!

Comment:

At times the class was challenging, but you learn a lot. He gives a tremendous amount of feedback on your essays and if you follow his directions, you'll be fine. Just put your best in everything you submit because the more you put into it the more he'll give back to you and he will definitely help you improve your writing a lot.
