Dr. Buchoff is amazing. She's my favorite professor at UCF. As long as you're not lazy, the class is not hard at all. All the projects have strict rubrics and if you follow them you'll definitely get an A. Start your literacy center right away and you won't be stressed out. Also, the midterm and final are not hard at all, they're mostly true/false

Dr. Buchoff is very inspiring, understanding, can be tough but only wishes students the best. She will push you to your full potential. Take NOTES when she lectures. There is a JOURNAL project so start early. Attend all class if not you will lose points. Downside is she does not use webcourse. Do not slack off!

Dr. Buchoff is one of the best professors I have ever had at UCF. She is very caring of all of her students and as long as you put the effort into her class you will pass. There is a huge book project where you have to read and make 33 book reports. Don't put that off to the last minute because it is time consuming. All in All she is great!

This is the second time I have taken her. She is a GREAT professor. Her rubrics are very clear. Attendance is mandatory. Don't by the textbook. Just do your assignments and follow the rubrics she gives, and you will get an A.

Comment:
Dr. Buchoff is by far the worst professor I have ever taken at UCF. She grades very harshly but does not give clear expectations in class. Every time I asked her a question she had an attitude and just told me to go read the textbook. She requires few assignments but they are each weighted heavily. Her lectures are pointless, I learned nothing.

Honestly, one of the worst professors i have taken at UCF. She has such a sassy attitude with people its ridiculous... Waking up at 7:30 to sit through her lectures, which mind you last 3 hours is not an example of a good teacher, especially when they teach us that lecturing in front of a group of children is not the most effective method.

She is hilarious and exciting, she makes the 7:30 class bearable. Not a hard grader, the two tests we take are easy, just get started on reading journals right away and if you pace yourself, it's not much work at all! I love all of the props she uses in class, she really knows her stuff, and she is passionate about what she teachers. Love her!

Loves what she teaches and it shows in every class! She makes an early class worth getting up for. The work load is not overwhelming but start project early so you can have work reviewed before submission. Look forward to taking another class with Prof. Buchoff!

This was one of the best professors I've had while here at UCF. She doesn't have very many assignments so if you do well on them you'll be fine. She is willing to talk to you and help if you need it. I would definitely take her again. If you attend all classes she gives you extra credit on your final.

I loved this professor so much that I actually changed my teacher for the next class just so I could have her! She is easy going, but expects your to put the effort in. You will read a ton of books, but they are all children's books. She wants you to love reading, so that you can portray that love to your future students. Definitely take her!

She is so sweet! There is a big project that I suggest you begin immediately after it's assigned. It's really not bad as long as you don't procrastinate. She rarely kept us for the entire class period. She always ends the class by reading a children's book aloud. I never used the book. This has been by far my favorite class I've taken at UCF.

Amazing. You NEED to take her, she's one of those few professors that truelly love what they do and want the best for their students. Don't procrastinate on the work, she gives you more than enough time to complete projects. It was a 7:30am class but she made it a pleasure to come to class. Take her class so you'll know just how great she is!

She makes getting up at 7:30 in the morning a piece of cake. She doesn't use webcourses, so it's a good idea to keep up with the grades that she gives you back so you know how you're doing in the course. There are several projects within the course, including a reading journal. I recommend getting started ASAP. Overall an amazing professor!

She is an adorable older lady. She requires an assignment where you have to read 32 books and write a report about each one. I would suggest starting right away and start with the chapter books so you don't fall behind. Her tests were like 50 questions but they were from the notes. I had the book but never opened it.

I love her. She is such a kind hearted woman that truly wants her students to learn. Do NOT procrastinate on the lit journals, start them the day she assigns them. She has a passion for what she teaches and it truly shows. She will go above and beyond for you if you communicate. Two tests. Due dates are due dates. 3 easy projects.

She is my all time favorite professor. No one can top her, she is INCREDIBLE. After taking this class I have become a book horde. Thanks to her, I know what books to look for and how to find a quality book for my library. I learned to become a good storyteller and how to make reading fun. I loved her class so much. Do yourself a favor and take her.

I LOVED her class! She was seriously the sweetest professor i've met. She is so extremely passionate about what she teaches that no class was ever boring. The journals are hard IF you leave them for the last minute. DO NOT PROCRASTINATE ON THEM!!!! She was still amazing, so sweet and I loved some of the strategies that she would give us!
