This is the kindess teacher a t.c.c. If you try it is very hard to get anything lower than a B. but I got an A!!!
Mrs.reid realy enjoys her job; great people skills. I love being in her college reading class!
I actually took her for Children's Literature but can't remember its numbers. XD She's a great teacher. LOVES literature. She does have the look and sound of an elementary school teacher, though, so if that bothers you, you might not want to take her.
awesome teacher. the nicest! do all your work and come to class and you will be an A!
she was a rude person, She never helped me and gave a lot of work .
she is a very nice lady and is willing to help everybody- take her
Shes the best teacher ive had. She speaks clearly and tries to help you in every way possible. and best of all she makes the material we cover very interesting
One of the worst, very straightforward
Mrs. Reid is a good person but her teaching habits are a bit confusing. She was never really atraight foward about the material.
She was not helpful at all.
good teacher
Good teacher not the best i have ever had but she does what she needs to do to get the job done.
i'm passing 1102 b/c of her.
She's pretty good teacher, as long as you come to class and do all the work. The way she talks to her students does kindof make you feel like you're back in high school or jr. high, but if you can tolerate that, she's not bad. And if you stay on top of the work, which isnt all that difficult, you'll do fine.
Loved this writing about lit class!!
She is great
I loved Ms Reid! She is super nice and pretty lenient with assignments. Very easy to please. And we had a lot of fun with different projects. Attendance is definitely mandatory.
wonderful teacher she was the bomb and she made class fun
I love Ms. Reid. she is so amazing!
Ms. Reid is so organized with assignments and directions. Has a good sense of humor and is fun. I wish she taught 1102.
Great teacher-this class was great! U need to go to class on a regular basis because she gives a grade on in class participation. She gives easy homework and easy tests.She is very helpful on understanding material. Gives you very interesting- broad range of short stories to read. We laughed alot in this class and i would love to have her again.
Awesome teacher! This is what English class should be, fun and challenging.
One of the best teachers I have ever have. She is awesome! She grades her essays throughly, but despite that her class is very easy. All you have to do is; write good essays, pay attention on review days, and utilize the time in the learning commons. Thats it.
Sorry to say but brenda reid isn't my type of instructor. Her assignments are very intresting but kind of confusing to what she wants done. I wouldn't take her in my opinion.
Miss Ried's class was my favorite this semester. She has the patience of Job with her students. If you don't understand something, either ask her in class or go to her office. She was the only teacher I had this semester who seemed happy to see me when I showed up during her office hours.
OMG!! This lady pissed me off.. although it wasnt her fault.. let's make this clear .... if you are one of those i dont feel like going to class today type of people.. DO NOOOOT TAKE HER CLASS. She grade extremely tough on essays and journal assignment i would recommend SOMEONE ELSE if you want a high grade.. most people only have a C in my class
She was okay over all, but she is extremely tough. I had an accident with one of my papers and she let me turn it in the next day but I lost twenty grade points off of it....Attendance is mandatory but if you do attend her class like you should you should have no problem passing
This class is extremely hard and overwhelming. Yes she does explain assignments to a certain extent, but she assigns to much work. I am NOT a lazy student and even i could not handle her work. We would start essays in the middle of completing a different essay and she would still expect us to complete other assignments as well. DONT TAKE IT!
Class was great! We had at least four weeks to write each essay and when I needed help I went to her office and was very helpful. Wish she taught 1102.
Super sweet teacher who made class fun and informative. I really enjoyed this class and learned so much. Great elective class!
She is a nice teacher and pretty easy. She is interested in a student's success and willing to work with you if you need help. Before you leave class each day, she makes sure that everyone understands what is due for the next class. Incredibly nice lady, I highly reccomend her.
This teacher makes everything so easy to understand and gives lots of opportunity to write better. She is serious about learning and expects you to work hard. But don't miss class a lot and be late. She will withdraw you.
My favorite teacher at tcc and I have had her for two classes and will take her again next semester. If you show you want to learn and you work hard, she will be your best friend. She has high expectations for her classes.
Love love love Mrs. Reid. Her grading is so fair and class was fun! We had a quiz every week. Some were challenging and a little confusing but if everyone missed the same question she did not count it.
Very fair and pleasant teacher to take for class
Professor Reid is great! She's super helpful and nice! Three main essays, intresting topics. I took her for the summer so not much homework, only the essays and cornell notes. I highly reccomend her, even if you're not a good writer. Just don't miss her class, she will drop you. Anyways, she's great!
Mrs.Reid class is very tough and your grades are based off of three big main essay and a a test as well.So you do not have to show up for class as well.Do not take this class.
Very outgoing, well rounded professor. She's nice and will understand if need help. Her assignments were very easy and clear. She doesn't expect much in the other work, however essays need to be very clear and well written. I received a c and thought it was fair for the effort I put in. Would recommend this teacher if you like to write.
She is the perfect mix of business and pleasure. Has high expectations for her students but is so fair and class is almost always entertaining. My writing has improved a lot!
Professor teaches to the college student who trys their best and wants to learn. You will leave the class a better writer. The students who tried in the class could not stand the whiners in the class who Mrs. Reid still encourage even if they did not try at all.
Love this teacher! She works with her students in class on essays, gives reasonable dealines and is an overall nice person. The class was fun and was totally easy to understand. Her class actually taught me something too! Highly reccomend her.
I didnt know what to expect from this class but Mrs. Reid is suberb, helpful, understanding and nice. Other teachers could get a clue from her.
she was cool
Okay, I honestly have no idea one where i should start when talking about how bad this teacher is! She isn't helpful, she gets mad or offended she you tell her that you know idea what she's talking about! She won't let you email her assignments when you just can't make it to class. She favorites other students and she will make that pretty clear.
I adored Mrs. Reid this semester! She makes sure you understand and helps you writing. I will miss her kind smile.
I really recomend this teacher. She is easy to understand, easy to talk to, and offers good help. I got great at black board since she always post assignments and grades up and she even sends reminders about due assignments.
She is very straight and to the point. Her classes definitely requires some giving in order to pass. She is very helpful and does not put up with nonsense, but if you go in with good intentions you will receive what you need out of this class.
She was one of the best teachers I have ever had and was extremely helpful. If you ever had a question all you have to do is ask and she will help you however she can.
Simply a wonderful teacher! I learned so much and really appreciated all of her encouragement and patience.
Everything Mrs. Reid does is perfect! I am taking her again.
Mrs. Reid is WONDERFUL. She is always available for questions and utilizes Facebook and email to make herself more accessible. I thoroughly enjoyed being a part of her class, and I would be more than willing to take a hundred more with her.
Professor Reid has been my all time favorite teacher! She's been a huge inspiration, is extremely clear and helpful, and is always ready to provide you with everything you need for your success. Second semester taking her and I tell everyone she is the best! My writing skills have made a 180 flip specifically because of her:)
Taking Ms. Reid was a great choice. She's clear on instructions and always available for help. Lots of thinking activities to get you ready to write your essay. Extremely good teacher and friendly too.
Tough class and was nervous about taking it in the summer but the the professor walked us through each stage of learning new material and made it easier to write the papers. I was busy but earned an A. Definitely recommend.
Loved this teacher. She is very helpful and gives good feedback. She grades tough on the essays, mid-term, and Final. She uses the same textbook from ENC1101 for ENC1102 (just throwing that in there). Taking her ENC1102 class this coming up semester!
I enjoyed this class. Keep up wih week assignments. If you have questions Professor answer emails fast but all assignments are clear. I appreciated her support.
Clear instructions on assignments. The assignments were engaging, and the entire class tied together. Attendance is really necessary, but missing a class won't kill your chance at passing, just make sure you follow up with her and get notesassignments from the class you missed.
Class was sooooooo much better then my fist english class I took over summer. Miss Brenda is always only a email away even though I never meet her. I understood assignments and the number of writings was fine. Take this class!!
awesome instructor!
Professor creates a great class environment and listens to everyone's opinions. Very friendly atmosphere and not intimidating. We always were working on a writing assignment but she provides support and feedback at each step. Highly recommend.
Not an easy class but put in effort and use all of the resources and you will become a better writer. Don't get behind because this teacher has timelines for all assignments that are actually very helpful and so is she.
I worked hard this semester and was always emailing Miss Reid for help. She always got back to me fast. If I needed to talk to her I called. She is very helpful and encouraging. I feel I learned a lot more in this class about writing and how to use Canvas. Really good teacher overall.
AMAZING teacher. Passionate about English.
Ms. Reid is a great English teacher. She cares for her students and wants you to succeed. She gives great feedback on essays.
She is an amazing teacher! By far my favorite Professor!! She's always willing t help and understands when things happen
Very organized and helpful. Highly recommend.
she is clear and to the point and assigns Interesting topics for essays that are general enough to let you choose something you want to write about. I will taking her for my next english class.
Very easy class. I took it online over the summer (10 week course) You will have a quiz every week but it is online so you can use the book and notes. I only used the book about 4 times but you do need it. There is a timed writing assignment that counts as the mid- term, this you will do at a proctored site, but you can use a note card for notes.
All my classes are online and this is the best teacher yet. She responds to email immediately even in the evening. The assignments are easy to follow and have lots of documents to help you understand what you are supposed to do. You have to read and write alot. but it is argument. Fabulous teacher!
Great teacher, she was very helpful and responded to emails in good time. She also gives extra credit which is always very helpful. Would definitely take her again.
Professor Reid is my favorite professor this semester!
Cool teacher that explains assignments but expect you to do you're best. Not cool with late assignments. I grew up a lot in this class.
Take this class! Prof Reid is so fair but you have to work and show her you are doing the best you can, she makes you want to work hard.
Help from this professor is fast and includes an encouraging message. She makes us share ideas on the discussion board a lot so we know what other students in the class are doing and that helped me a lot. Highly recommend.
Ms. Reid presents a challenging and educational experience for you. You write three main papers with lots of time. You can keep up if you use good time management skills. I had this professor for two classes so definitely recommend her. .
The class and teacher are incredible. The class that gave me confidence to know I can succeed in college. Ms Brenda needs a raise for her patience in students not following instructions. She has hands on style that makes you listen in class and makes it easy to complete work on my own.
Taking her class has taught me so much and made me into a much better writer. Professor Reid is very understanding and you can tell she really does want you to succeed. If you put in the work and effort into the class, you'll get an A.
Amazing professor!! Took her online for ENC1102. She is very warm and willing to help you however she can. There are a few discussion boards, three papers, two timed writings in the testing center, and some grammar quizzes. Book is only needed for the timed writings. She grades fairly and always responds in a timely manner if you have any concerns.
My favorite english teacher I've had. She's super easy to work with, and she offers tutoring outside of class. Every assignment has clear criteria on what to do and how to do it.
I found this class coordinated and rigorous and helped me tremendously with my writing because the professor provides guidance and encouragement throughout. Five stars.
Best online class ever. Thanks prof Reid.
Professor Reid is tough but fair. She gives great feedback and outlines exactly what she expects. The class wasn't easy but it wasn't a horrible class. I would take again.
Love her, so sweet and caring. Pretty easy grader, gives you plenty of time to complete assignments (took this class online). Emails back fast, will answer any questions, and gives great feedback on your papers. Wish I took her for ENC1101 as well!
I love Brenda Reid as a professor, and I can tell she genuinely cares about her students success and learning. I do not believe attendance is mandatory, but I highly suggest it. I enjoy going to her class, even though English has never been my strong suit.
Mrs. Reid is the BEST teacher! She is super clear on EVERYTHING, gives you plenty of time to complete your work (not many assignments), and gives many reminders. She is very quick to respond and is willing to help students individually. If you have trouble she will make sure you are helped. So kind and caring too. Can't say enough good about her!
Professor Reid is quick to respond to emails. Essay criteria/format is clearly laid out, and she gives plenty of time to get it done. Group projects are peer reviews, but she gives you the format, so it's not as awkward when reviewing someone else's work. Every so often she would throw extra credit points for those who didn't procrastinate.
Professor Reid is very understanding and gives great feedback. She will help you improve your essays and grammar. As long as put in your best effort, you will be fine. Don't be afraid to ask her for help. Also extra credit is given if you're prompt. Group projects aren't bad because she's only grading you based on what you give not the others.
I actually learned so much with her!! Love, love, love this class!
So glad I took this online class with Professor Reid. Her course is clear and easily managed. Never have I had this degree of personal attention and communication in an online course. I feel as if I know her and she knows me even though we have never met in person.
ENC1101 terrified me but Professor Reid literally walked me through the course patiently and patient with my peers. Class was challenging but explanations were clear and she never seemed to mind explaining two or three times with lots of examples. I will always remember her favorably.
Dr. Reid was very helpful and a great leader! She made the class easier than what is really was, she is very lenient and understanding!
Great professor, Fast grader,Short essays.
Super chill, caring teacher. Highly recommend her. An A is guaranteed if you put in the effort and communicate with her. Work is easy and respond to email quickly.
The class was harder than I thought it would be but the topics were good and the professor was awesome moving us through the steps of writing. Recommended.
She gives really good feedbacks and gives chances to redo your paper. Also so understanding about situations like the time I was late for a meeting but she still allowed me to come in and get credit. Always accessible throughout the week. Don't take her kindness for granted though, do her class/homework and you'll pass.
Professor Reid is the best english teacher/professor I have ever had in my life. She is dedicated to her students success. Do: visit her office outside of class communicate when you struggle be ready to write papers go to class dont: skip class not communicate or finish assignments follow her instructions and she is the best prof you can have.
I love this professor! She's very understanding tries her absolute best to make sure we understand the lesson before she continues.
Take this class! I loved her as a teacher, showed the way. Make sure to follow Instructions. She's gives great advice , always there when you need her.
Shes super sweet and helpful. But she does give a lot of work. You will do a lot of work in just one week. Try not to miss class or get behind. The work is not hard its just a lot of work so it has a snowball affect if you miss one assignment.
Loved this class and Mrs. Reid! Would recommend her for a first year college English class as she was so kind and easy to get advice from!
great teacher really works with you!
Professor Reid is an amazing teacher. Your grade is based off of a few quizzes in the beginning and your essays. The quizzes are based off on a reading she gives you weekly. The essays are given with very clear instructions and she helps you in the writing process a lot. I would recommend this class she really cares about your grade & offers help.
Professor Reid was super interactive, approachable, and I feel like she genuinely adored her students. She was very responsive and actively listened to student concerns and questions. She's a very fair grader, but has no tolerance for late work. All in all, would recommend!
I hated ENC1102, but prof. Reid was very much different for ENC1102. She gave great feedback, and her essays were not the bad. The only bad thing I would have to say about her is some stuff was due at noon, and other stuff was due at midnight and that got a little annoying.
Professor Reid was great! Her canvas was easy to navigate and her instructions were very clear. The only problem is that she didn't give the greatest feedback in the file comments but she gives you the opportunity to reach out to her to talk about essays which is probably where you get most of your feedback. Other than that, I'd take her again!
Mrs. Reid is the best professor for an online class. She is involved and very responsive to student email. I never had to wait more than a couple of hours for a email response and was very clear in her advice. Take her!
Professor Reid made my first semester at TCC wonderful. I enjoyed going to class because she explains concepts and the writing process so clear. She is friendly and kind when I asked for help. I am taking her for the next class to.
Class was organized and professor responded to email fast. I learned so much in this class. She is very patient.
Awesome teacher! Prof. Reid is a super helpful teacher. She is always willing to help me if I face challenges and always gives great constructive criticism. It helps me see what I need to improve on and how I can do so.
She is very organized. Some points that usually could take a lot of time usually took a short amount of time with her because everything was well-structured. I knew what to expect every single moment. Definitely one of the best instructors in TCC. She made instructions very clear and gave students multiple chances to complete assignments.
The weekly assignments were explained very well, she gives lots of feedback on drafts if you ask for help. I met her twice on Zoom and she is very friendly and encouraging. Overall, a great online class!
Best English professor ever. class was relaxed and fun with a lot of time to ask questions and get help. Can't recommend enough.
Good professor overall! However, lot of instructions located in different modules which can make it hard to find exactly what she's looking for. Gives minimal feedback but will respond quick to an email. Class itself is easy and grading is not difficult. If you take this class, if you do the work on time you will pass with an A!
Good teacher and explains how to do everything well, fair grading on the papers too. Just show up to class and be nice and you should have no problem getting a good grade
Be prepared to stay engaged in the class, but she is great about responding to questions fast. Highly recommend.
VERY kind. Answers questions through email quickly. If confused she will host a zoom meeting and record it for those who couldn't attend. Only frustrating thing is she ALWAYS gave due date extensions but those who finished on time were never rewarded for doing their work on time. So kind just very lenient. Great news if you tend to slack.
This class was by far one of the easiest english courses i've taken! she was so understanding and willing to help. She's not a harsh grader at all and gives really great feedback on her assignments! as long as you do the work you will be successful!
LOVE LOVE LOVE Ms.Reid! She's super kind and is very attentive to her students. She had modules set and organized for each week of the semester and held zoom meetings and put the recordings up even for ones who missed it. She gives clear feedback on essays and was always willing to help.
The most caring English Professor Reid. Her class was so easy and she provides extra credit opportunities. I recommend taking her class as it is easy to follow, and she still accepts late work.
She is a wonderful teacher, she is super nice and lenient.
Class is pretty easy to pass, she's not a harsh grader when it comes to essays and gives great feedback.
Professoe Reid mixed critical thinking with grammar and writing skills instruction. She was patient, attentive, and good natured. Awesome prof.
