He would edit them and help us through creating a great paper which in turn helped me learn what a great paper really looked like and how to create it. I highly recommend his class for the process of creating a great paper!

Dr. Harshman was by far one of the best English professors Ive had. I am not gonna say English 101 is an easy class, no English class is an easy A especially a composition class. I made sure to do all my essays and turn them in, he is great because he revises what needs to be fixed and you turn it in. Just be sure to do your essays and revisions.

Throughout high school and my early college careers, no professor has taken more time to coach and help students become stronger writers. Most slap a grade on the top and don't clarify why you got that grade. He will be more than happy to sit one on one with you and review and coach you on your papers.

Professor Harshman genuinely cares about his students success. There's few professors that go the extra mile. The Eng102 class is incredibly simple, you do three papers and he helps you with revision, what you're missing and how to overcome your errors. If you want to learn how to write like a professional, take his class.

Prof. Harshman makes class fun and interactive; you can skip participating if you want, but class is much more fulfilling if you don't. He is passionate, funny, and clearly cares about both his subject and his students. The class is simple and requires 3 papers with revisions, no final exam, and no tests at all. Do the work, and you can't fail.
