Great professor! Will be taking him again as soon as possible, he is very concerned about your grade and you passing the class. Definitely take him if you need help in writing, he will build a great foundation for writing.
Definitely has a unique teaching style. Will make you laugh throughout the class. Very thorough with his lectures.
Professor Gage is an awesome teacher! He's great at making the class interesting, he always engages with the class, and is always curious to hear our thoughts. We did have to write a decent amount of papers, but never had to write about anything boring or dreadful. Great professor, and I would definitely take another class with him!
Chris was such an awesome professor for this fall term semester. I will definitely be taking him again spring semester. He's soooooooooo cool and easy. Great guy the best by far.
He is the best English professor I have ever had. The class might not seem that easy as there is a lot of writing, but he breaks down everything for students so it would be easier. He is really engaged and cares about students. He gives a lot of chances to make up and to boost your grades. Just do your work. I am taking his class again.
I took his class for ENC 1101 and cant wait to register for ENC 1102. He gives great feedback and is willing to help students.
Chris Gage's class was a truly enriching experience as someone who loves literature. He took the time to select works that were interesting and lent themselves well to in-class discussions. You have to be prepared to write a paper each week, however, it is manageable because our discussions on the literature were thorough and stimulating.
He was a great and funny professor. Every paper he gives you he helps you start the paper. Attendance is mandatory! This was my first year in college he was very good!
Professor Gage was great and the semester was pretty simple, there were two readings we had to complete in class, two essays, and a resume and cover letter as the final. Overall you wont regret taking his class, he's very helpful, kind ,and cheerful.
Professor Gage is the best 1st impression BC can give to the students. His love for teaching is reflected through his continued and re-inforced support to the students. He provides all the tools, guidelines, instructions and coaching a student needs in order to successfully accomplish the class after the effort is put into it. Recommended!
Hes hilarious, relatable, and the class is such an easy A. Theres a lot of papers to write but he will pretty much help you write them step by step in class and he will tell you exactly what he wants to see. Whatever grade you get he will tell you exactly why you got that. Super amazing. Taking him for now right after his 1101
There's a paper due pretty much every week, but he's the best ENC professor out there, five minutes into the class and I was already in love with this professor. It's a very easy class, and that is coming from a person whose first language is not English. The only way you could fail is by not showing up and not listening to him. Take him for sure!!
He gives specific details on what he's looking for in the assignments. Follow instructions and you'll pass.
Professor Gage is AMAZING! If you go every day and pay attention to what he says the papers won't be hard. He wants you to do well and will always give feedback when you ask. He is also super easy to reach outside of class. I had him for a 6 week semester and I was scared going in but he made me feel so comfortable. 100% take him. Highly recommend.
I love the way he connects to each student, he literally knew everybody's name the second class we had. He's a great person super nice and understanding. He gives you time in class to get started on your papers and comes up now and then asking how youre doing. Also he helped a lot with my final research paper cause I didn't know what I was gonna do
Dr. Christopher Gage always made a clear understanding on what each paper was about. He is a very energetic and great professor. If you're not lazy you should pass the class with flying colors. I thak him for the amazing experience I had in English!!!!:)
Dr. Cage has a selective material to cover; it consists of video presentations and lectures. There is no test, no finals. Just follow closer to his instructions. I will recommend anyone to take his class. Excellent professor.
He gives amazing instructions. I was terrified coming into college but having him as my first ENC teacher was honestly such a blessing. He is really helpful and elaborates everything. Super respectful and funny but lets you know when your messing up. Seriously if you can take him I would grab the class fast!!
This is my first year of college. He is the BEST !!!! There are essays due every week, but he goes step by step for the final paper in Dec which is the final exam grade, but no actual final. He always make the class energetic and always humorous. I love him a lot. Cannot wait to be in his ENC1102 next semester!
Very good professor, I highly recommend him for your 1101 credit. Gives lots of extra credit, easy homework, and only one paper.
He is very funny , he really make his class easy , one of my best possessor
Awesome Professor who helps you to pass the class.
An awesome teacher. Yes we do a lot of essays but it's not like he's giving us tests. He also explains what he wants from you and is very clear with instructions. He tends to talk about things relative to today's news. I can"t wait to take him again for English 2.
(I took about two months of his class online because COVID-19) He cares about his students, will be there if you need help with anything. You will really learn if you take his class, gives assignments almost every week, most of them are really easy.
What can I say? Professor Gage is the man. Do you have to show up to class, read some books or short stories and write some essays? Of course, its an English class, but he makes it fun and easy going. I would take any other classes he offered if my GI Bill allowed it. Heck, I may pay for one myself haha. Best part is that he cares, unlike most.
Dr. Gage is the man! I used to look forward to going to his class because it's always so exciting. I hate that Coronavirus ended our class on a short note, but Id take any other class that he offers. Hes passionate about teaching, and he still has his humanity. TAKE HIS CLASS!!!
I took professor Gage for ENC1101 and I had to take him again for ENC1102 because he was too good to not take again. He's very understanding. If I could take him for every class I would without thinking it twice.
Best professor, taking him again. You need to work to earn your grade.
A real gem! Dr Gage is the best professor at BC. If you really want to learn, just take him. He is so funny that you will want to come to class everyday. He explained everything in a clear way, give great directions for homework and give good feedbacks.
Professor Gage takes the time to explain the material to students in a way to ensure that students learn and understand the material, he also gives feedback to students letting them know where they went wrong and areas they can improve on, and be prepared to complete weekly assignments.
I LOVE Gage. He's so great. I took him for ENC1101 and ENC1102. What a king. I looked forward to his class every day. Assignments are super easy. MyLabsPlus will save your grade (It's super easy so do it.) You will write papers, but they are very very easy to do. He walks you through them. Your final is all of your papers in one!
Very easy going professor. VERY clear instructions. All assignments/paper is a build-up to your final paper, hence no final if you follow the easy steps. All you'll be doing is pasting all the papers together. Very passionate teacher. Genuinely cares about his students. Be on-time for class. His energy sure woke me up being the first class of day!
Professor Gage is amazing. You really learn from his classes. I will not say his class is easy, you have to work for your grade. He is very helpful. His assignments are interesting as well. I look forward to attending his classes. I would definitely take him in the future for 1102.
He is a very great teacher. He is an easy teach IF and only if you listen to his directions. His lectures are very good and love when a class talks. I would take his class hands-down for both ENC1101 and 1102. AMAZING TEACHER!!! You will not regret it!
I took Dr. Gage class for ENC1102. His class was very good, the assignments thought me a lot about the real world. Id definitely take his class again.
I took professor Gage for ENC 1101 and I can personally say he is one of the best English professors Broward College has to offer. 10/10 I recommend his class for anyone who is going to take ENC 1101.
Hi! This guy does not hand out grades but he gives specific instructions on everything you have to do. PLENTY of extra credit, put in effort and you'll easily pass. He's hilarious and really down to earth. If you need a sign to take Prof. Gage DO IT!!
The essays are easy if you pay attention to what he says
He's an extraordinary professor. The homework consists of writIng papers; plain and simple. He makes sure to explain every paper to the bone, with instructions and advice (in class) set to help you as much as possible. You usually have two weeks to write every paper. Overall a great teacher who's very flexible.
I absolutely loved his class. I was always happy to log into BB collab because sometimes all he does is just start conversations with the students. He is very laid back when it comes to assignments and is very thorough with directions for the assignments. Like literally cannot fail this class unless you just not turning assignments in.
BEST teacher ever! Prof Gage is one of the most caring, hard-working teachers out there! He really makes class fun, with assignment topics and just talking about random stuff. he gives 8 papers but one is the final and it's done in parts(paper5-8 is the final). take him if you want to have fun while also be in a great class. I am taking him again!
The workload is mainly essays being that it's an English class. He's very good at explaining exactly what he's looking for in the essays so that you get a good grade. if you are looking to improve your writing he is definitely the teacher to choose, I loved him and now my writing is even better than before.
Unfortunately I failed his class due to my own negligence but overall he is an excellent professor. He makes sure you understand what youre doing, when he gives feedback he makes sure hes clear about what needs to be fixed, and he also give extra credit for using the tutors. Overall very cool person and easy class.
He's the best! Wish I took him for 1102! He's understanding and funny, he'll extend your due date if you ask within reasonable timing. He's extremely helpful before and after papers! Very kind with grading and extra credit and is funny to boot. His material is really interesting! Definitely take his class! :)
Best prof ever!!!! Really caring and kind. Best prof I ever had.
Best Proffesor I've ever had class with, his class is not easy, but they are not hard. All you have to do is Pay Attention and FOLLOW DIRECTIONS! As long as you do that you will Def. Pass the Class.
Dr. Gage is an amazing English professor. Follow his directions, read the assignments, and turn in your work. Dr. Gage, gives you plenty of time in completing your assignments and labs. I would of never thought that my favorite subjects would of been this class. Will take him for ENC1102
He is a really good teacher, I took the class from 6 pm until 9 pm it's hard to pay attention but he makes the class really entertained. He talks a lot!! But he is really funny, he also explains very well all the essays and assignments. Easy A!
Professor Gage was the same cool and chill teacher from ENC1101. No different from ENC1101 in terms of difficulty, but this time around you have more papers of the professor's creatives and unique choice. He'll make you write about relevant topics such as: cancel culture and systemic racism. Writing may sound dull, but he makes it extremely easy.
Had him for 1101 and 1102 this man is truly a BLESSING He is always understanding and makes this class so easy to interact Hes super approachable BC give this man a raise Overall 3 essays 3 papers and gives extra credit impossible to fail if you put the work in please take him he makes you open your eyes in the world
Dr Gage is a top tier professor. He is among the most articulate and detailed professors I have ever seen, in the way he so clearly outlines his directions and expectations for his assignments. Easy A if you follow his directions. His classes are easy going, and he offers quite a bit of extra credit. Take him for English, you won't regret it.
How can you not like prof Chris, best prof in Broward hands down. Took him for 2 classes both of them were amazing.
Where do I begin! Professor Gage was a lovely choice, you won't regret taking his class. 5 response papers, all are very interesting and engaging. Very easy grader, lecture heavy but it's fun time, very laid back, and an overall awesome person. Papers are a good length and not hard at all. Easy to access through email. Take him!
Man, I loved this professor. His energy is contagious, he explains precisely what he wants from each assignment, and he's extremely laid back. I only took him for LIT2000, but I would have loved to have taken him for ENC too! Take his class. You won't regret it.
10/10 I would highly recommend this teacher. His only fault in my opinion is that he may get off topic and talk a bit, but if that doesn't bother you you're in luck! Theres an essay every two weeks and i didn't find it too hard. Every piece of instruction is in the assignments and there are student examples for every essay. Best teacher i've had!
Professor Chris is a fun, energetic, and kind teacher. Super easy going and the assignments are easy. He give you a template for each paper you are going to write which makes things SUPER easy! I would take him again 100%
Professor Chris is an easy going and fun teacher. I had him at 8:00 am and he would put me in a good mood to start off the day with a funny joke or story he had to tell. He is very kind and makes the designs the assignments in a way where you can easily get an A if you put the effort. TAKE HIS CLASS!
Great professor
The best professor I've ever had, made waking up at 7 am worth it. Very understanding when it comes to late work. Highly Recommend him.
Amazing, funny professor. There are only like 5 papers but they're due like two weeks apart with a high word count so it's kind of stressful but it's not impossible. The reading and analysis are advanced so if you love reading and insightful convos this is perfect for you. No petty homework and no petty tests
Take him for ENC1102 or LIT2000. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT! He is the most understandable professor and assigns work that is most relatable in the real world such as cancel culture. Also, he gives out extra credit so it will really help you in the end. TAKE HIM!
Honestly Best Professors hands down, word to hes mad funny, Easy to understand and reasonable. Always gives extensions when you ask ahead of time . Hes really considerate as long as you communicate. Sarcastic and relateable, never a boring lecture. Taking him for 1102 this spring semester if k could rate him 1000/10 i would
I loved him as a professor. He was nice to talk to but you will have a ton of work to do. Those essays almost ate me up alive. He doesnt grade to strict and he gives you really good feedback and suggestions on how to improve your work.
In my opinion, he is the best professor I have ever had. He gives you templates that if you follow them you will get straight A. I would highly recommend this professor ������
Probably one of the best Broward College English Professors! His papers and grading criteria is very clear.
This class was the most interesting class Ive ever taken. Dr. Gage doesnt make you write based off of boring textbook literature. He makes you write about real world topics, gives you the freedom to express your opinion, and helps educate and open the minds of everyone to help us become aware of the world around us. Take this class!!
He is a very cool and interesting person. He made English interesting and easy to write. I would suggest him if you're looking for an easy A professor for an English course.
I could write an entire essay about how amazing this professor is. If you have the opportunity to take him DO IT. He is the KINDEST person out there. He is funny and very open minded. His assignments are so clear and very simple. I often times enjoyed the assignments and kind of wish I had more. By FAR the best teacher at Broward.
Bit crazy, but probably the best class I will ever take. The professor makes great conversation and cares a lot about the students and sets them up for success, as long as you read the directions and try to get everything done on time no doubt you will do well in this class. Wish I appreciated the class time more.
He makes it a really easy class. He gives a lot of detailed instructions, so there is no way you'll get lost. He provides a lot of samples and even offers templates from other essays with similar topics. I would take his class again.
BEST PROFESSOR I have ever had. He was so sweet to everyone and interacted with us on zoom and spend the time to actually talk to us. The workload was really easy and made it easy for everyone to understand. I wish I could take this class over again with him. You will NOT regret taking his class I promise you.
Professor Gage was a really good professor. He likes to talk to a lot and can get quite enthusiastic during the lectures, which compensates for how long the class felt like. You supposedly have 1 paper due every week but he often makes changes to the deadlines. He gives a lot of extra credit opportunities as papers. There is no final nor midterm.
Words can't describe how amazing this professor is. Made me happy to want to learn and do assignments. Would definitely do it again.
The best ENC1102 professor you can ever take, but be prepared to do work. He is enthusiastic about his lectures and creating engaging topics for his students. He is very funny, and you know he is very passionate about what he teaches. Do not hesitate to take him; talk to him if you ever need extra time on papers or can't attend class.
Great professor and an easy class.
great professor, essay instructions are super clear very hard to fail as long as you follow his specific instructions.
Excellent professor 10/10. Provides feedback, offers help, is easy to contact, and responds quickly. A fun teacher that makes ENC1101 fun and interesting. He provides great information and learning skills that will help you become a better writer. Fair on grading and I can assure you will be happy taking his class.
Professor Gage is amazing. He is great at explaining how to complete an assignment. straightforward and not to much heavy load work. He gives many EC opportunities. I have not completed the course yet I am almost done though and I have a B I'm sure that's my final grade. If you don't pass with at least a B or higher that's on you. He is THE BEST.
Had to come back and give Dr.Gage another rating. Please select him as your prof. I guarantee you will pass. If you don't that's 100% on you. So many opportunities it's almost impossible to fail. Straightforward assignments.
Dr. Gage is the best English Prof. at Broward College. If you need to take ANY English or Literature based course, and he's the one teaching it, you need to run and get a seat with him as fast as you can. It doesn't get any better than Dr. Gage.
Dr. Gage was an all around amazing professor, He was very lenient with his assignments, very understanding if you were busy outside of college, and was very engaging during the class, not one lecture was boring, even on the long days! He actually cared about his students and was very interactive with every single student, amazing professor!
He is a great professor i've taken him over the summer and he gave us clear instructions and lets you ask questions until you get it and he respects you and is interactive in a nonboring way during class i recommend taking his class I'm taking his enc1102 for the fall for him
I loved taking ENC1101 and ENC1102 with Professor Gage. His class was very entertaining and the papers we turned in were relatively easy, if you follow his rubric. When you submit papers he gives you feedback on where you need improvement which is really helpful.
This would be the best teacher you can take for ENC1101 he literally has amazing lectures and always finds a way to make you laugh during them
Professor Gage is by far the best English professor I've had so far. He's hilarious and he gives great insight and information so students are able to succeed. His papers are designed so students are able to confidently write a research paper for whatever field they may be going into. I definitely recommend Professor Gage!
Professor Chris is one of the best professors I ever had...
Professor Gage is great, he makes the class engaging and does his best to help everyone pass. The movies he assigns are all horror, though he has said he will assign different movies to any students who can't watch them. Attendance is worth 25%, so go to class. There are four papers (around 750 words) worth 15%. The final is a resume.
Prof. Gage really cares about his students succeeding and will go out of his way to make sure you don't fail the class. This being a writing class you will have to do 4 essays, but Prof. Gage will make sure you have all the information. He loves to talk and joke with students but don't abuse that kindness. Pay attention to the lectures.
Great professor, made ENC very easy and helpful with assignments. Keep them very interesting and very understanding when it comes to not being able to make it to class. Easy A as long as you do the essays assigned.
Amazing professor honestly, he really cared a lot. He was patient and kind, always took time to help you if you didn't understand. Also gave great feedback that I really appreciated. Lectures was also great and not boring, would have taken him for ENC1102 but he was full sadly.
Chris is an amazing professor and he loves to interact and converse. He puts his heart in his work and it shows. We would run out of time from deep discussions and convos, but if you love LIT OR ENG, you'll get lost in it too. Would take again. Could have gotten an A easy but I slacked off and still did great. Go for it.
AMAZING PROFESSOR. I love him!!! Highly unlikely you'll fail.
Great professor took him for enc1102 and literature. His lectures are great, he choses very interesting topics for his papers. If you turn in your work on time and show that you care you will pass. Take his class!!!
Prof Gage is one of the funniest teachers I've had so far. You can tell he is very passionate about what he teaches, and there are never dull moments in his class. There are 4 main papers you'll write; each has very clear criteria for what's expected.
entertaining lecturer, class focuses a lot on anti-ai work. will give good feedback on your writing and will answer questions during lecture. very high energy. talk to him in person if you need help though, it gets to him quicker. attendance is sort of mandatory, sometimes he checks sometimes not, no textbook work but one novel for the class.
prof. gage was one of the best professors ive had in college by far, his class is easy and engaging. he is extremely dedicated to his job and gives amazing feedback, he also motivates you to do better and helps you outside of class. just make sure to READ his instructions very well because it is easy to lose points. 10/10!
Lessons was really in-depth, loved that I learned without needing a textbook!! Chris was very funny, made every class a breeze, we had 4 papers and the final research paper. I will be taking him again for ENC1102 :)
One of the best professors I've ever had. He cares more about what you learn.
You truly want to take this professor. I took him for my ENC1101 and I was SUPER happy when I saw the last seat open for his ENC1102 course. His classes, you'll definitely leave with a smile! So, if you ever come in feeling down, just know he's waiting to cheer us all up! :)
I took his class a few years ago, and I felt compelled to write a review because of how much I genuinely enjoyed it. He's easily one of the best professors I've ever had. I never really liked English as a subject, but his class completely changed that for me.
I would definitely take his class again! He's not only encouraging and supportive, but also really funny. His conversations make the class enjoyable, and as long as you avoid cheating and turn in your assignments on time, you'll do great!
Extremely easy class. To be honest, you don't really have to attend his lectures to understand what the write in the essays. There are 5 papers throughout the semester. The literature we read were not indiscernible or hard to analyze. He makes the class interesting and fun. His biggest pet peeve is students using AI to write their papers, so don't!
he is such a nice and sweet professor and he will give you second changes when doing the assignments he is very laid backhand his class has no test.
Super great professor! So energetic and his class is super easy to pass. One tip is that he hatessss AI so don't even try to use it. You'll easily pass the class if you just do your own work
very nice and not a tough grader at all
If you want a class where you don't actually learn anything he's the perfect prof for you. ALL he did was talk about how much he hates AI and how big tech is gonna kill us all. We once spent an entire class scrolling through reddit. He's an easy prof though and an easy grader so if that doesn't matter than he's fine.
Professor Gage is so funny, and helps you with your papers. All he wish is for students to write their own paper instead of using ChatGPT, he hates AI btw. Attendance is mandatory, it's literally a whole grade in your grade book so if you are not a morning person, try to make it on time or change professor. Otherwise, he is a very chill professor!
One professor I would take again is Professor Gage. incredibly relatable and passionate about his work. I gained a great deal of knowledge regarding writing an easy. He is incredibly humorous and takes the time to read your work without making you feel incompetent or dismissed. I'm happy to have found a professor with his level of passion!
Best English professor!! He made class fun and he's very funny. He does not like AI at all. He honestly cares about students to succeed and does not want ai to consume us but to use our creative and inspiration to our best capability. He's always there if any help needed and attendance is mandatory.
My favorite professor ever! Every assignment and lecture are genuinely interesting and so fun to learn about and complete! I enjoyed every topic we discussed and all the readings we had! If you love scifi, you would love his lit2000 class. Hes very laidback and knows what hes talking about! I got a 99 or 100 on every paper! There are 10 papers due
Sweetest professor ever!! He is so passionate and cares so much about his students I wish he taught more classes
I loveddd him he's so sweet and understanding as long as you communicate with him ! I'm not even a writer bc I get bored very easily but he made the class less boring than your average English class. He gives entertaining topics for you to write on and also will take the time to help with outlines or anything you need help with. He's amazing
Great professor! 3-4 Essays are needed for this course and they were very simple and straightfoward. Would take him again!
Professor Gage is an amazing teacher who makes college life a breeze, he accepts late work even if its a month late. He's understanding and is always willing to help, even when class is done. I urgently recommend for you to take his class but be quick, they always fill up fast. Even I cant get him again.
Amazing professor, I would recommend. He's very passionate and actually cares about his students. He's very understanding does not give many assignments just 4 papers never over 1000 words. He is so against AI, dont even try using it I'm sure he will notice. As long as you try and don't use any AI you will pass the class with an A
Take his class! He is very honest when it comes to feedback. He is a professor whom you could reach out to if you ever were to have a question about anything! I recommend taking his class 111%. Don't use AI. He really doesn't want his students using AI to do the work. But if it's to help improve the paper, that's not an issue.
i took him for ENC1102 as well. he is the best english professor! course work is pretty straight forward, clear and easy to learn and complete even for those who's strong suit isn't literature. only 4 essays and an attendance/participation grade. very understanding and easy to reach outside of class. don't use AI, he will know and he hates it.
