Comment:

He grades papers on the way he expects them to be written. He wants the wording to be concise and straight to the point, no adding in words to make your essay sound fancy. The highest I got was an A-. 3 B- and the rest are C's. I did better on essays that I made myself stress over but I wouldn't take Moore again. He's hard on Grammar. Be careful.

Comment:

Not an easy A. I had a paper every week (summer session). I worked hard on my papers and the highest grade I got was a B+. He "digresses" a lot. He is very enthusiastic about his readings and super funny. His class is never boring, and homework is very easy. Participation matters, try not to be absent! Best English teacher, def helped me improve!

Comment:

Only a few papers given, but aren't terrible. Gives great feedback; you literally improve your writing with each paper given, if you actually apply yourself. Seems like a crack pot but is wise. Can get off topic at times but as long as you pay attention, this class can take you far!

Only took it because I need it to get into college, but if you write an essay and think you wrote an essay that is worth at least a B. You better expect a D. He grades papers on the way he likes papers to be written.

Great teacher! Eight essays overall for both English 1A and 1D except 1D also requires a summary of a text from the required book. Essays are easy and he's happy to help you if you need clarification on how he graded your papers. Good teacher that wants students to participate and brings in interesting stories to the class.

He is such an interesting man. Class can be slow but he always keeps it interesting with his stories. He's like a modern day scribe or sage. Be prepared to write lots of essays.

Comment:

I took this class over summer and it was very easy. There are short readings for homework which he spends the whole class reviewing. There was a journal for the first 3 weeks which was simple. You'll have to write a paper every week and he wants you to "show not tell." His advice really helps you become a better writer. You can easily get a B.

Comment:

I took him in summer school. We used the book only once. We did the same thing over and over. Read essays/articles and he went over them. Did six essays,journals, and a final. He's a tough grader on the essays. He wants you to show instead of tell. He's kinda rude at times.

Don't take him unless you like hard grading teachers. He doesn't tell you what he expects on his essays and is a hard grader! I hated this class but still managed to pass because of all my hard work put into those papers!

Comment:

I wasn't lazy in his class. I passed with a B. I personally thought he was a terrible teacher. He didn't really teach the class how to write essays the way he wants it. It's all kinda expected. And yes, like most say, "You have to be a good writer to be in his class." his class is easy, but I don't like the teacher. I wouldn't recommened him.

Comment:

OH Mr. Moore. I dreaded every MWF because I knew I had his class. You have to be a good writer in order to get the grade you want. Not much homework, several reading assignments that require 3 questions. Most of his examples are outdated. Never take his 7 am class if you are not a morning person.

Mr. Moore is an awesome teacher! his class is very simple: show up, and do the work. lectures in class are not important, but funny. he's always willing to help you IF YOU ASK FOR IT!!! all the people who say he's a bad teacher were probably too lazy to do the work. his class is easy but make sure to participate and he'll give you a better grade!
