Good teacher overall, your gonna have to write some essays and have one group project but he's not a harsh grader. If you have some problems within, or outside of class talk with him and he should try work with you. You dont need to buy a book, grades are put in late, and after 6 absences you might fail the class for lack of attendance, so show up.

Format: 2-3 weekly assignments, 1 essay/ week, final is a short paper on a play (can read it or audiobook). He grades very easily (im not the best writer and i got 100s or 95s on every assignment); but he is disorganized, hardly responds to emails, and a slow grader. You need the textbook (or someone to send you pages). Bad teacher, but easy A.

5 wks online class. 8 assignmts, 4 essays + final exam essay over a screen play. Hard to do in 5wks/online. Face to face probably better. No feedback for essays except: "great essay". NO grades until 4wks in, for 5 assignments only. Essay grades came in 1 day before final. I never knew where I stood in his class. No rubrics. Unclear instructions.

Lots of homework

Professor Palacios is a great professor! Very easy class, you mostly write essays. Just show up and turn in the work for that day and he will give you a 100. No tests. Don't buy the textbooks though, just the book you have to read and you should save a lot of money.

He is my favorite professor. If you do the work you will be guaranteed an A. English was never my strong suit but he makes it seem so easy. You have a midterm a final and about 3 essays and thats all youre graded on. Easiest course Ive ever taken. But dont be absent he is very strict with that rule. Other than that I highly recommend.

The class is really simple. He gives an assignment every week which is basically reading an article and answering questions on rare occasions you have to write essays. The class was easy. Although you dont need the textbook it helps sometimes(hardly ever I used it once). He doesnt really respond to emails quickly but its an easy class.

Summer 6 week course. You read 3 short stories & answer some questions, write a journal (1 page) & essay (3 page) for each. You also have to read a book (One flew over the cuckoo's nest) & write a 2 page essay which is the final. I saw the movie & made a 100 but there are some differences in the movie & book so make sure to research. SLOW GRADER

However, he doesn't give feedback but his assignments were fairly easy. We had 9 assignments, and we read a book but I read 20 pages every night, a final essay over it, and two other (personal) essays.

If you're considering this professor, TAKE HIM. Super easy, short stories with 3 assignments attached to each. All assignments are pretty much the same 3rd assignment is an essay. Offers prompts to assist you with writing your paper. Stories are interesting enough making assignments easy. One assigned book to read for the final which he provided.
