Excellent teacher. Very enthusiastic. Very approachable with problems and questions. Very open minded and is willing to go out on a limb to help. I recommend taking her course to anyone and everyone.
Shes funny and great
This is a good English teacher. I'd take her again for anything else.
Best teacher on campus. Very fun class, have learned alot. Very helpful, very clear and concise teaching style, very nice person. Would take just about any class she teaches. She will make you learn, but helps you along the way! Take her class and sign up early, her classes fill up quickly.
Excellent educator. I would highly recommend her to any student.
A wonderful educator and human being. Ms. Booker has a passion for writing that is contagious. Her class is uplifting and fun. She has the utmost respect for her students. I strongly recommend her, you won't regret it.
I think mrs booker is the most wondeful teacher phcc has
I absolutly loved Profesor Booker, she was trully amazing, always helpfull, always there to listen =] I strongly recomend her
appears to know what she is talking about.
Interesting teacher. Talks kinda fast, but is very helpful.
GREAT TEACHER! I highly recommend her! One of my favorite professors on the campus! I wish I could have taken her for English Comp 2!
fight to get this teacher she is the best english teacher at the school
I love this teacher! Definately recommend, but do not procrastinate on anyting. In papers, she wants to hear what you have to say about the subject, not as much background on it.
Pretty easy class. Attendence is a must though because some of the work is due on the day assigned. Funny at times. Grade mainly based on reading stories and writing about them. That plus tests and the paper.
She is the best for english.. signed up for her with comp 2 even though I am not required for my degree.. like her the best
THE UNBIASED REVIEW.....I had Mrs. Booker for comp 1. Shes a nice person and doesn't play favorites. She was a very good teacher and very helpful, she likes those who come to class more than the slackers who leave early. She grades very easy and the class is very easy, yet I learned a decent amount. TAKE HER IF YOU CAN !
Love the class and the teacher. Ms. Booker is pleasant and interesting and very passionate about the subject. Makes it very interesting.
PROF BOOKER IS THE GREATEST TEACHER A PERSON CAN HAVE. I WOULD SAY SHE IS THE BEST TEACHER I HAVE VER HAD. SHE HAS HELPED TURNED MY LIFE AROUND. NOT JUST A TEACHER, BUT A FRIEND!!!!!!!!!
Barbara Booker is an EXCELLENT teacher. I was anxious about taking this course, because English is NOT one of my better subjects. She made the course great. Very down to earth, kind, caring, compassionate, fair, but firm & doesn?t take any crap. She cares enormously about your education & is working on a PhD herself. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMEND. A+++
Mrs. Booker is a wonderful teacher. If you are honest and polite with her, you will pretty much have a great semester. MAKE SURE TO READ EVERY INCH OF HER SYLLABUS!!!
every day we had to read a chapter. 19 question we had to write something short. Just had to be done . Didn't see her actually read them . She was
very nice, always has the best shoes!
You're right; she does have great shoes. She is really busy but willing to listen and to help you. Turn in your papers early so that she can review them for you; she likes that.
I was terrified of research papers. I never learned them in high school, or college, and I made it to my last year at PHCC before I took English. This woman is BRILLIANT. She's TOTALLY turned my view around on papers, prepping, proper structure, everything! If you're terrified of English and its scary rules, TAKE BOOKER!! BOOKER IS THE WIN!
I took English 1102 in the summer of 2008 with Mrs.Booker and she was great! I highly recommend her. She read the class alot of short stories and made her expectations very clear. I got an A in the class and I only winged my oral presentation (did not prepare AT ALL). She has great taste iin shoes!!!!
As lovely in physical appearance as Professor Booker may be, her true beauty radiates from within. She is a true scholar who possesses the genuine respect and infectious passion required to effectively convey poetry and prose. I can remember discussing Oscar Wilde and La Belle et la BĂŞte with her. What a class act! Thank you Professor Booker...
Nice teacher but you def. have to keep on your work!
i loved her class. i learned so much. just actually left my last class and decided to give this a try. i enjoyed her class so much and the work was super super easy. and only one research paper the whole semester!
Great teacher, struggled on my paper because I was not sure which topic to us and ended up not turning in a rough draft and got a 0. But did all my other work and did it flawlessly got a 100 on my 10 min presentation on my paper and still got a! in the class. she is a good teacher, there isa good amount of work but you will actually learn in here.
Very complimentary, when she critiques she does it in an extremely positive light, Sharp wit, extreme intellect, always put together....Wonderful teacher.
Professor Booker is the best professor at PHCC I have had yet. She is simply amazing! I absolutely loved her class and would recommend any student to take her class.
Last name ever first name greatest. She is by far the nest teacher in Florida. If you want to pass a class and learn a lot at the same time, take Booker.she is the best and always has new shoes.
DO NOT MISS A DAY - EVER
She is probably one of the best English teachers I have ever had. The paper we had to write was fairly simple considering she helps you every bit of the way. And the presentation we had to do was very easy. I learned how to write a good research paper in that class which has helped me in all my other classes I have taken after that.
Wonderful, Respectful, Easy to talk to, Generous, overall the best teacher I have had at this school. Her class is very easy to understand, if you stay on top of all your assignments, hand them in on time, and you meet the page requirements, you will get an easy A.
Amazing professor! She is very helpful and sweet! She dresses in the best for class so she isn't harsh on the eyes:) This is by far the best professor i have had at phcc. She is very willing to help and assist you in anyway she can!! She makes the class very interesting. Love her!!!
Professor Booker is a true gem in PHCC. She is caring and passionate over her teaching. Funny and to the point. i was afraid going into the class but left her class a much better writer. Thank you Ms. Booker for your teaching
I love Mrs. Booker!! She is the best teacher ever! She is extremely helpful and the nicest teacher in the world!!!! I recommend her to EVERYONE!
Mrs. Booker is such a great teacher, some how she makes English class enjoyable. We don't have any unnecessary assignments to do,everything makes sense. She really cares about her students and wants us all to succeed!! Best teacher I've had at PHCC by far shes awesome!
Professor Booker is an amazing teacher! No unnecessary work and teaches you a lot about MLA and writing proper papers. She is always friendly and you can tell she enjoys teaching!
By far one of the best professors at PHCC. She will explain a topic clearly until everyone understands it, readily accepts questions or comments, and has a conference with each student to go over their paper with them so they can get a good grade (other students are excused for these days!). I had no knowledge of MLA and I now know quite a bit. A+
She is funny and a wonderful teacher. She is VERY easy on grading compared to other teachers, but I'm not sure if she actually read my paper or just skimmed it because I caught my own mistakes that she didn't. Popular and recommended by even the advisors, everyone seems to like her after taking her class.
Professor Booker is absolutely amazing! She is very clear in what she wants and expects. She really cares about her students and will help in any way she can. She grades very gently in the beginning, giving credit for turning in assignments. The research paper is easy because she breaks it into separate assignments(Intro,Body,Refutation,Conclusion)
Not very accommodating to people with medical issues almost failed me because I had too many therapy sessions that caused me to be out a few times. She also lost one of my papers and said she never got it - that said she knows her stuff and her assignments where engaging
Very easy teacher! Very helpful and understanding! She makes writing essays and research papers easy in simple steps! She also always has something positive to say about your work.
She made me want to write a paper. Bubbly personality, looked forward to attending her class.
She's an awesome teacher! Makes writing a research paper easy by the simple steps she gives you. She's very positive and she's always willing to help.
Mrs. Booker was a great teacher, her class is easy if you do what you're supposed to, and if you attend class everyday. She's very friendly and very helpful! I liked her so much I only wanted her for comp II
LOVED HER! SHE IS SUPPER FUNNY AND SO NICE, EXPLAINS EVERYTHING TO TH T, LOVED HER! ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND HER TO PEOPLE!
What an incredible teacher! She is so beautiful and so talented! She is truly a wonderful person and teacher. Her class is a delight!! She is very interesting and interested in her students. I'd absolutely recommend her to anyone!!
She's a wonderful teacher! I want to take English comp 2 with her but she only does that during the summer term. She's excellent, excellent!!! Cannot say more positive about her!!
My boyfriend knows how much I love literature and writing and therefore insisted that I take a class with Dr. Booker. What a great suggestion! Dr. Booker is very knowledgeable and I walked out of her class ten times wiser. I was thrilled to have such a passionate scholar grading my papers. I just wish she graded more harshly.
Mrs. Booker is an excellent teacher! I learned so much from taking her class. I really wish I would of had her for ENG111! My teacher for ENG111 was much more strict and harder and I didn't learn nearly as much as I have taking this class. She is so intelligent and wonderful to be around. Never dreaded going to her class. Highly recommended.
Dr. booker was an absolute joy as a teacher, possibly one of my favorite teachers of all time. Very witty, entertaining woman, who obviously cares very deeply for her students and subject matter. Obviously, doing the work is required and attendance is as well, but very straightforward otherwise. Loved this class!
she walks you step by step on everything. do not get the book
Five, 5 pg papers (Including a Poem Analysis which isn't suppose to be in Comp 1, nor did she explain the format for the paper) along with the 5 pg Research paper. Some paper's you only has 2 days to complete it. She changed the syllabus three times. She didn't help me with questions, instead she was very rude and asked why I'm even in the class.
Awesome teacher. I hated research papers and feared english as a whole before this class. Glad I found Booker, unfortunately after I withdrew from two previous professors classes. Highly recommend this teacher to anyone. You will learn a lot and she also grades fairly. She is always willing to help and answer all of your questions.
The paper is hard but she makes sure to make it clear how she wants it, you can fail if you listen to her and follow her specific instructions
Good teacher, easy class
Amazing professor, easy class. There's only one paper the entire semester and it's broken up to make everything less overwhelming. She's extremely helpful and always eager to answer any questions. Very easy to work with. What she expects of you is very clear. We didn't use the book too much but it is very helpful. Also a few quizzes+ a presentation
The first day of class I had to write a three paragraph story. Could not tell you what I wrote, but my writing hand was shaking. I could not believe how nervous I was. Dr. Booker has a way of making you feel calm. If you go to see her at her office she will work with you. As long as you put in the work, research, you will be fine.
Dr. Barbara B. Booker is the MOST amazing professor you will EVER have. She has such a sweetheart and is very caring. She is a tough grader and is very passionate about English, but you will learn so much from her the class is definitely NOT a waste of time. She goes over things twice if you don't understand. LOVE her she is the best teacher :)
She is brilliant. She knows is the ideal English Professor. For someone who hasn't attended school in 10 years. She made me feel comfortable with writing and broke it down beautifully. She is a fantastic teacher and anyone who says otherwise did not work hard in her class.
Knows her stuff and extremely professional.
Excellent teacher. English master. She takes you step by step to ensure you understand the MLA format.
Professor Booker is an awesome teacher. She was there for help if you needed it. she is tough but fair. She keeps it real. I took her for English Composition I and II.
Dr. Booker is awesome! One thing I would emphasize is to know firmly before you enter this class what topic you would want to and LIKE to write about for your research paper. She calls the research paper "your baby" so make sure it is well-fed and cleaned with grammar, details, and correct formatting, etc. The presentation will then be made easier
The one assignment for the semester is a five-page argumentative research paper that you complete piece by piece, little by little. She goes over each section (thesis, intro, body, etc) and explains them pretty in-depthly. Two quizzes, not even difficult. She is also lenient with due dates and grading. Show an interest, participate a little and try
Dr. Booker was awesome! Her class was really easy, but I definitely learned a lot. She's always right there when you need help, would definitely take again!
She was awesome.
Great teacher for Eng comp 1. learned a lot and loved to write my paper. easy to talk to and offers great feedback. funny and nice. would take again
Only one essay that is "your baby" and she is very clear on what she wants done
Very laid-back and hilarious. You have to do two essays, a literary analysis and research. If you need help you can go to her and she will help you. I love her class and wish she taught English Comp II so I could have her again.
Dr. Booker is a great professor. She makes class pretty fun. There are two papers you'll have to write, one of them you'll have to present. She gives good feedback, her instructions are clear, and her grading is fair.
Overall great teacher. 2 main essays that is basically your overall grade. She is nice and always offers help if someone is struggling as well as gives feedback. he only thing to make sure of is your attendance at the end of the semester when people do their presentations. She grades by your effort and quality. IE. pass/fail
Dr. Booker is an amazing professor! She truly cares about all her students and is more than passionate about her job and the subject she teaches. She is more than willing to offer clear and honest advice to students in a way they will understand and genuinely wants you to be proud of the work you do. Would definitely recommend her to anyone!
Dr. Booker is amazing. Such a great professor. She gives really good feedback. There was only 1 paper, and she breaks it down into different assigments. Definitely recommend her.
Dr. Booker was hands-down one of the best professors that I have ever had. She was caring, concise, and clear with her instructions. The whole class was only one detailed paper and it was broken down into different assignments. (Her favorite research paper topic is the JFK assassination. I picked it and got a 100% in the class!) Just do your work!
I liked having Booker as my English teacher because her syllabus is very clear and she is very specific on how she grades. The paper is put together throughout the semester in different pieces. At the end you are expected to present your topic for 10 minutes minimum, but everyone is really supportive and it was actually fun to do. I recommend her.
She helps and explains and is caring about it. I am definitely taking her again. Great woman overall!
Her class isn't easy. Be prepared to do the work of writing a research paper step by step. She is very clear about her grading procedures, and is willing to help if you ask. She is very fair. I would take another course of hers if I had the chance.
Dr. Booker is awesome. You only have to write ONE paper. You turn in each section on the paper and she grades it and gives it back to you. At the end you have a whole paper and you present it to the class. Easy A.
Only one paper throughout the semester and two quizzes. She grades the paper in sections and gives great critiques throughout so that you get the highest possible final grade. Definitely take notes on the lessons about MLA format to use in the paper they are extremely helpful.
Booker was a great teacher, i would take her again. She loves when the class contributes and works together, if you want a A you will get a A if you work for it. meaning: do what she says, turn things in on time. She grades the essay really hard, only 1 essay is needed to write. She gives the class quizzes but you work together, PICK HER!!
I loved this professor! Took her online during the COVID-19 summer semester. She gave great feedback, graded very quickly, and was quick to respond to any questions. I believe she was an easy grader as long as she saw you putting in the effort. I wish I could have taken her in person. Great teacher, who is passionate about her job.
The whole class was essentially writing a single research paper broken down into specific steps. Easy to do, but don't put off your research until the last minute, because the body of the paper can sneak up on you. Very easy class; Dr. Booker is a caring, laid-back teacher. Definitely take her class if you have the chance.
Amazing professor! Shes so funny and helpful. Only one paper is due as your final and she helps you create it throughout the entire semester!
Amazing teacher, very understanding, and super helpful!! She never grades below a 100 without an explanation as to why the assignment wasnt full credit. Super easy to get in touch with as well!! Definitely will be taking English 2 with her next semester!!!
Dr. Booker was amazing!! The whole class is based around one paper with each week completing one part of it, week one was the introduction, week two the first paragraph, etc. There is a variety of social topics you can pick to write about!She is very caring and provides great feedback on all assignments. Definitely take her if you get the chance!
Professor Booker provided an amazing Enc1011 experience. There is only one essay throughout the entire semester, each assignment contributes to building your essay as well as help you understand the structure of a good college essay. There are not many assignments in the class however, they are big so there is no procrastinating.
Dr. Booker was my all time favorite professor! If you put in the work and complete the assignments you’ll no doubt get an A. She is very interactive and makes the class fun. You can tell she actually cares about her students and is an example of what all professors should be. Class is 1 paper and she gives incredible feedback on it.
Gives us the right amount of time to get our homework done, easy to talk to, and loves to play different games in class to make it more fun to learn the criteria.
Barbara was an amazing teacher, throughout the course we worked toward the final and I really obtained a clear understanding of what she taught.
I love her!!! My fav teacher in PHSC
Dr. Booker was an amazing teacher. She cared so much about all of her students. She made sure that all of your work was something you would be proud of. I will miss her as a teacher.
She is obviously a tough grader, but she's an amazing teacher overall. I usually do not rate teachers but she was amazing. She responds to your emails in a good timely manner and helps you figure stuff out when you cant figure it out and will direct you in the right direction. I would absolutely take her class again!!
The class is very tough, but she does a great job at making it understandable. If there is anyone you want to help you with a paper it's her.
Was in her last class of her career, but she was an absolutely wonderful teacher. Her lectures were enjoyable and informative. She also had a wonderful sense of humor. Glad to have taken her class, Have a happy retirement Professor Booker!
Super strict on grading, if you mess up the first time that's on you because she doesn't give 2nd chances
She is such a great professor. There is a big paper, but it's broken up throughout the semester, rather than being written all at once at the end of the semester.
