Comment:

one of the best professor at CRC for writing. The only thing is that the assignment has to be done her way. I Checked my work with other professor, but it would decrease instead of increase. I recommend her but you have to work with her at her office hour which helps you to get an essay A.

Comment:

I took Professor Hutcheson's ENGCW400 class online in Fall 2018. This was not only my first online class, but one of my first classes in college in general. I was skeptical of this class at first, but I am very glad to have been proven wrong as the semester continued. She gives solid advice for improvement. Just do your assignments on time. :)

I took Professor Hutcheson during the spring 2018 semester and I enjoyed her class so, so much! She gives amazing feedback on your creative writing assignments; which was what I looked forward to the most after each submission! Her grading is very open as long as you follow the instructions given out. I highly recommend her, especially for CW400.

There will be a lot of reading, quiz every week, 250 word journal every week. she moves onto the next subject really fast. talks about her cats and friends at Home Depot. She expects you to know when things need to be read.

She is a nice lady but things do have to be done her way she is very specific on the grading. Overall it isn't hard work it is just a lot, no presentation or hard tests so if writing isn't a problem for you I would say to take her.

She really wants things to be done her way. This class is really political and you have to rewrite a lot.

Comment:

She's definitely a professor that cares about her students & their success. The essays were pretty tricky because she wants it done her way so if you mess up somehow, she will give you a 5/150 but allow you a rewrite. Offers extra credit opportunities which saved my grade at the end! Office hours were really helpful since the class was hybrid

Hybrid class. 5 Essays (one timed essay) Political Cartoons & Journals due wkly. EXTRA CREDIT opportunities. Professor cares genuinely about her students success, if you don't understand go to her office hours! Gives the opportunity to rewrite essays for full credit. Due Vocab it may seem like a lot of work but its worth it! Final Multiple Choice

Comment:

Good professor, but definitely likes things done her way for sure. You have the same 2-3 assignments each week which makes it easy to know what you have to get done. The essays are complicated and you most likely will have to meet with her after class and re-write them multiple times to her liking to get a decent grade.

Comment:

We wrote 3-4 times a week(blog, short narrative & poem). For an easy A, I would recommend this class for people that love writing. There's group activities and she addressed any concerns/problems, making changes accordingly. I loved the option for our final (recording of our writing) but I don't know if she'll offer it in the future.

Comment:

This class is mostly hybrid, but the professor is really helpful if you go to her office hours she will read your essay and make it a stronger essay. She truly wants every student to pass but she can only do so much only downside to this class is that her lectures are pretty boring at times. She offers extra credit throughout the semester.

Heather is definitely a fantastic choice for 302. Lectures are lackluster, but she makes it up for it by giving outstanding feedback. Her "there are no strangers, only people we have not yet met" ideology is going to be sticking with me for a long time!

I think she is the BEST English Professor at CRC. She gives students good feedback for their papers and makes sure everyone is on right track. If you feel stuck on your papers, try to come to the office hours. If I were you, I would take her for all English classes.

At the beginning of the class, I was pretty confused because she seemed scattered and unorganized, but throughout the class it became more clear and easier. She gives great feedback and is open to answer questions!

Heather is amazing, the best English Professor I've ever had. If you get the chance to take her class please do, you won't be disappointed. She gives great feedback, and like any other English class there are several essay's, but overall such an amazing class and Heather made it so much better. Not to mention she's hilarious and fun!

Comment:

Confusing and frustrating! The nearly two hour orientation we were required to attend before the class started left me even more befuddled as to what the deadlines and expectations for the course were. What a waste of time that was! She gives vague directions at best. I do not get why she is so highly rated. It's sad, because I love writing.

Comment:

She's a great english teacher to have and is funny. There's about 6 papers and weekly journals that you have to do. If you do well on the journals then you don't have to take the final at the end. She's really there for her students and wants everyone to do well. I would most definitely take her again.
