Gary Clark is my favorite English professor I have ever had hands down! He gives wonderful feedback and only wants his students to succeed. He is passionate and his lectures are engaging and informative- yes he swears we are all adults here, get over it. I learned so much in the short semester and would take another course led by him again.

He's a great professor. There were only two essays, a 7+ pg. APA paper and a 5+ pg. MLA. There is also a group project/presentation at the end of the semester. He gives A LOT of feedback on the APA paper which is great. I really feel that I improved my writing and I wish I took his eng101 class.

Did 2 papers, an MLA and APA style, a group project and a couple reading notes on a couple articles. Amazing professor, makes things easier for you, actually gives you sources to work with for your papers, truly caring and hilarious!

Gary Clark is a good professor, he is definitely a tough grader but he gives good feed back. He is very clear on what he wants and will mark you down for not meeting his requirements. He is the type of teacher that will help you out when you need it, but you will definitely need to put effort into this class.

I have never failed a writing class but this guy is out of the ordinary. He makes it hard to want to do good in his class because of how harsh he is with grading and personally. All he does in class is repeat himself and waste time.

Comment:

This guy has been by far the toughest grader Ive ever had. He loves to pick and choose who he wants to be lenient with and who he doesnt. He prefferably likes students who kiss up too him and everyone else is just irrelevant to him. People think hes hilarious but in reality he swears to much and is constantly making unprofessional remarks

Clark is a good teacher you don't take any quizzes or test so that's a plus! He isn't good at putting grades in though so you don't really know what grade you're getting the whole semester. His lectures can also be really boring but he tries to make it fun! easy teacher for sure! you can turn any papers you miss at the end of semester too!

Mr. Clark is the best!!! I've taken 2 classes with him so far, and I am in a third one right now. He makes it fun, and you definitely become a better writer coming out of it. As long as you follow his instructions, and listen to what he says, you will do fantastically. There is a lot of writing involved, but remember detail and reread your papers:)

Mr. Clark is a good teacher. What he does bad is not putting grades up AT ALL the whole semester until the class is over. VERY tough grader and doesn't let anything slide.

Comment:

One of my fav professors so far! He really cares about his students and he's truly intelligent. Sometimes he does talk a lot but it's because he really tries to get his students to understand. He spends a lot of time giving your papers feedback so it's hard not to get an A when he specifically tells you what he's looking for.

Mr. Clark is the best teacher I have ever had. His lectures are entertaining and he is a really fun person. There is not too much homework. There is only the papers and the occasional reading assignment. He gives you a lot of feedback on papers and allows you to revise your paper if you want to raise it a letter grade. Definitely take Mr. Clark.
