I took this professor for ENC1101 and she was not helpful at all and not very clear at explaining things. You can easily pass ENC1101 by writting great essays but if you really want to learn what she's teaching I suggest you try another professor!

Make sure you attend every single class. If you happen to miss, make sure you ask her if you have any work to make up. There is plenty of writing, class discussions, and maybe 1 or 2 class presentations. You can forget passing the literature test in the middle of the term, its impossible to even get a D.

She's very nice and sweet! She really does care about your grade and will pull you aside to discuss it with you. In total, there's 6 essays you have to do. You write an essay one week and the next you take a test on grammar and that's how it is the whole semester. No final or midterm.

If you want an easy A then this class won't do. However, if you want a challenging course that will improve your writing then go for her. I learned a shton in this class regarding writing. I just had to put time to study the work and a good a amount of hours doing her papers. It's worth it, though. I'd definitely take her again.

This teacher is definetly unacceptable. The amount of homework she gives out is way too much! She has to understand that kids have jobs,house problems, and health problems as well. I am so stressed in this moment of my life and its mostly because of this teacher. I strongly reccomend not to take her class. You will be stressed all the time.

Nice lady but way too much homework. You NEED the book. Will lower your grade after 3 absences, 3 tardies count as one absence. 2 tests, must memorize every single story/poem read in class. Boring class. Not that hard but wouldn't take her again.

I understand that reading is mandatory, its an English class! However things get out of hand when she EXPECTS you to remember certain lines/quotes from each passage. Neither is there any type of study guide to help you prepare for the 50+ passages. Never thought that memorizing will play a role in my English class.

Don't take this class. 6 essays doesnt seem like a lot but before we even finished the first essay the final draft is due for the second essay, no time to talk to her about how to correct rough draft because she only gives one day in between the day she assigns and the day it is due.

She assigns a lot of homework, but the hw is useful. I took her for enc1101 and enc1102, for enc1102 you have to step up your game for the essays although she allows revisions for better grade. A long as you do hw and do the revisions you should be fine. The tests for enc1102 she allows you to use hw but not for enc1102 the tests are challenging 2

Professor Gray is an absolute gem. I would take her class again in a heartbeat. I took her class during my freshman year and now I am a junior. I still think about how much fun I had in this class. Literally she is one of those professors that inspire you to write and express your creativity. She is awesome. Highly recommend!

Took her class and she states everything very clearly on the syllabus. The textbook she requires we use for a couple of homeworks but not a whole lot. We do seven essay but enough time in-between where it isn't a whole lot. She also gives you a week to revise them and turn them in again for a better grade. All in all it's a chill class

I've always been good at English. There is one midterm, one final, and one research paper but a lot of homework. If you're willing to put in the work and you like English take her. But the main thing is that she's really understanding if you're having a hard time just talk to her. She doesn't use Canvas and does private meetings with you instead.

Professor Gray was a good professor. She allows you to do revisions on your essays, but this class is VERY homework heavy. She assigns homework every class. There is one midterm and one final exam based on all of the stories we've gone over, and they are not easy. If you do not mind putting in the work, then this professor is for you.

Professor Gray's ENC1102 is a challenging course with heavy homework, but she is understanding and allows revisions. To succeed, put in the work and utilize resources like Unstuckstudy alongside the textbook. The tests are tough, but manageable with diligent preparation.
