It was a little intimidating having a new professor but he was really nice and caring. Inserts current events into discussion, a really good professor to have. You'll write a few papers (maybe 4?) and he'll grade them and give you feedback. Your final will be a portfolio of your final drafts of the papers. Nice class, would take again.

I'd wish Mr. Martin taught more than 1101. He cares about his students very much and the feedback you will receive on your essays will reflect how much he is devoted to your success. He's caring and sensitive, and will make the effort to help you in any situation outside the classroom. Hearing from him after the course was over made my week.

I wouldn't consider this class "easy." If you want an honorable grade than he'll make you work for it in your own comfortable way. You still have to do work. It would be what others disrespectfully say as "easy" if there weren't assignments. I would take this professor again. Really got more than what my money's worth with this guy.

He has a truly unique teaching environment,being understanding of student's needs(absences and flexible deadlines)while creating a comfortable class.He can tend to ramble on during class,re-stating things.He only gave 3 final assignments which didn't help to get a feel of his grading before then. It's definitely not an easy class though just unique

Martin is not just a professor but he is a friend that you can go up to for anything. He understands the feeling of what is like to be a student at this time. I wish I had him way sooner. Every thing is up to you. If you come in every day, participate, and do your assignments, I guarantee you this is not difficult weather you an export or not.

I took this class as a full time dual enrollment student and loved it. The class moved super slowly and was not stressful like my other classes. Prof Martin was very understanding, attendance and participation is encouraged, and the way his grading is set up it makes it very hard to fail his class. If you need help he is accessible in every way.

Professor Martin is the best literature prof.I've taken. The course work is just material in class, not much homework, two essays that are open to creativity, and participation matters and just paying attention. I wish students would respect him more. He's more about helping people grow than him feeling as if it's a job. Would recommend him 100%.

Super easy as long as you do the work and show up to class. Really understanding professor, by far my favorite English teacher. Had to write one narrative on anything that was like 800 words, one analysis about something similar to the narrative about 500 words, and one email arguing for your grade.

Mr. Martin is an amazing professor. He was very accommodating and very flexible with his assignments (I was allowed to turn in a video in place of an essay for one of my assignments) and just teaches a really fun class. Easy to talk to, easy lectures to listen to, I had a great time. I 100% recommend taking his class.

My experience with second level English with him was very unique. Class was cancelled about 90% of the time (cancelled more than actual classes). All we did for class was write our research paper and an email explaining our thoughts and feelings with the class. Super down to earth guy and really sweet and caring, I wish he didn't cancel class much.

Professor Martin is a great guy and great professor - he genuinely cares about you and your success, and explained things very well. Class was cancelled more often than not due to circumstances beyond his control. This skewed my experience with this class. I would not take this class again, but I would take him for another course.

All you have to do to get a good grade is participate in class. We had three papers and that was the entire grade and you could go to the professor for feedback. The papers were basically a completion grade if you showed up to class and participated a little bit. Honestly one of my favorite classes to date.

I usually struggle with ENGL classes, but this one was a breeze. I took it over the summer, and it hardly felt like I was taking a class at all. We had four reflections, with the option to skip one. The topics were really engaging, making the course enjoyable. Hands down, the best professor I've had!

Great professor! Very caring and wish students to success. Only 3 papers throughout the semester and a discussion post per week. Giving soft deadlines for essays. Easy A. Even though attendance is mandatory, he gives 3 absences for no reason required per semester. However, he talks a lot which makes the lecture boring.

He is such a sweetheart, a great professor to have your first year. He encourages participation, not required. You have 2-3 papers the entire year and he is very lenient about working with you if you miss any deadlines or anything, super lenient and easy-going to have. 100% would take again, 10/10 would recommend.
