SHE IS A VERY GOOD TEACHER. VERY FRIENDLY AND VERY HELPFUL. ALSO VERY EASY. YOU WILL SURE PASS THE CLASS. SHE IS VERY SEXY WHEN SHE WEAR A SKIRT. :)
Ms. Loubser teaches English. She helps her students everyday and has the papers graded in a respectuful amount of time. If English is not your strong pursuit, she helps you through it and will help you all semester. She is wonderful and you need to take her. you will learn a lot.
Very easy and nice teacher. has alot of busy work but isnt so bad. took her over the summer and she was very lenient on the grades and assignments. she helps you alot if u ask for it. got an A in the course, wouldnt mind takin her agian for another class. pretty hot and fun so it makes the class go by faster.

She is good, if you do well in English. But not so helpful if you struggle.
This teacher rocks plain and simple
I tried to avoid taking Comp II as long as I could, but I am so glad for Ms. Loubser. She is a great teacher and very understanding. I would recommend her to anyone who has to take Comp I & II. She's the best.
SHE IS EASY AS HELL AND SHE IS SOOOOO ****IN HOT
So Hot for starters.Sexiest legs EVER. Makes English so much fun. i dont mind taking her class over and over and over. Helps out a lot. Very nice.Grades in a timely manner. SHES THE BEST> MY WRITING SKILLS PROVE IT. PLUS THERS NEVER A BORING MOMENT . ALL YOU DO IS LOOK AT THAT CUTE FACE
Well once you get past her looks you realize that she has allot to offer! Well read and world traveler so she has allot to say, the class was never dull, in class discussion were great and so was the hottie next to me that kept me laughing all day. Loubser is great! get over the looks already and pay attention people!
SHE HELPS A LOT
She is a very nice teacher. Very understanding and will take time out to help you personally. There were no quizzes nor busy-works assigned which made the class so much more managable. I learned a lot and plan to take a class with her again. Very highly recommended for English haters such as myself.
She is a very hot, and educated teacher. She knows what she is doing so the students can become the best at their ability of writing.
There's a lot of reading involved and a bit of journal writing which occurs from time to time, but that's it. NO TESTS! She is an EXCELLENT professor - very helpful, entertaining, understanding, intelligent, sweet, stylish and totally beautiful world traveler [she frequently travels around Europe]. YOU SHOULD TAKE HER CLASS!!
She is very passionate about what she teaches. She has the will to help students out when need. Very clear on class agenda and class discussion. If your looking a English professor, than she is the one. I also would like to say she is VERY hot, but you must overcome her looks and pay attention to her intelligence. Email me if you have any questions
Professor very helpful, will work with the students, easy going
She is ok. She can be quite too honest. She loves to ask questions and wants lots of class participation. Alot of reading but shes nice. She quick some students out for not reading one time. Not too nice.
If you want easy, take her. If you want to learn, take someone else.
miss loubser is extremely helpfull and understanding with her classes. it is a joy to be in her class.loubser's love for lit. is evident and shines through to her students which helps for students that dont have a strong grasp on the subject.if you want to learn,take her class!!!!!!
I can't believe ya'll are sayin her class wuz hard, i guess u were just too lazy to work on ur paper. If u want to be independent and fluent in essay writing, u've got to take her and be serious with your work. U only write 6 papers and she guides u thru each one, and a presentation b4 the end of the semester. U also get easy 100s! take her!!!!!!!!
When you can't do well, it's easy to blame it on prejudice. soooooo funny
This class is great. Prof Loubser is a bit of a feminist but I'm not complaining. She's really understanding & always gives extensions on all our papers. She's always willing to help on anything you have trouble on. Just do the work on time & you're good. The only reason why anyone would get a bad grade in this class is because you're REALLY lazy!
She is great very helpfull I got an A
shes very nice and helpful BUT don't piss her off by coming into class w/o reading the assignment. she gives out alot of essays but their all really easy to do if you listen to the discussions in class.

Very helpful. She is very understanding and funny. I don't like english but I enjoyed the class.
Professor Loubser is a great teacher. She is probably the most patient professor I've ever encountered. She is very helpful and supportive of her students achievement. Also, she is pretty and has a body out of this world. WoW !!!
Great teacher a must take if you want a clear understanding in an English class and she is very pretty!!!
Great teacher, not hard at all if you do your work. Shes funny and very pretty. Loved her class.
Very feminist! She grades VERY HARD and if you do not have the same point of view she does, you will probably make a bad grade. Essays after essays in this class and readings after readings. Did not enjoy her class and she does not curve or anything. Do not take her, not worth the extra efforts for a almost failing grade.
She is very nice and pretty. Grades very hard I would not recommend to anyone to take with her. SHE IS TOUGH AND HARD
She is a great instructor. Very patient with students, considering so many did not do the assigned reading. She took the time to explain the assignment and gave you the opportunity to rewrite the first essay.
SHE IS REALLY HARD....NOT AN EASY "PASS" AT ALL ! you gotta work ur ass off for an A or...even a B!!! just like wat other said " cute doesn't cut it!"
Very nice and easy. She only made you write 3 out of class essays, and the rest were in class. All you have to do is finish the assignments and you will do fine. And she even reviews your essays during the peer review. I guess some people just want an easy grade without having to do any of the work. Sad!
Prof. Loubser is what I expected for college level, fair and thorough. I learned plenty of things in her class, probably mostly because I was interested to begin with. If you are looking for an easy pass, pass on her class. If, however, you're actually wanting to learn about writing, I suggest her ENGL 1301 class. She makes it as fun as she can.
She is a pretty good prefessor. This class made writing essays very easy. She grades kind of hard though but there is always help available during peer reviews. she has good tips in writing. I SAY TAKE THE CLASS! you'll learn to write better!
An incredible teacher ,inspiration and a generally nice person.
She is a good teacher. Just do the assignments and she will help you all she can. Most teachers will not do peer reviews, but she will sit with you and help you with your essays. Very nice, just be respectful to her and you will get along great!
This is probably the best teacher I have ever had. You show up to class and do the work, you get the grade. She will motivate you till the very end to do your best...I proved to be her most valuable asset...
generally a nice person. She pushes you but I would expect no less from a college class. I wouldn't say she is easy, because she isn't, but then I wanted to learn how to write not just get a grade.
This is the worst teacher ever, I took her for a winter session and have already dropped. Teacher is very mean and disrespectful toward her students, if you want to learn I say take another teacher!
GREAT ENTHUSIASTIC TEACHER LOVED HER STYLE AND LOOKS
Really good teacher, took her for the winter mini session class, was challenging and intense i feel that it is all about how much work you put in, overall the class was educational and enjoyable, thanks mrs- Bryan
I like this class, seems hard but its all a matter of keeping up with your work, extremely helpfull, will guide you how to achieve a good paper, would recomend her,
compared to other 1302 classes she gives A LOT of assignments but they are not terrible. I believe we ended up with 12 papers in total. She has high expectations of her students and gives fair grades. If you're in college to be challenged, this is the right class. Over all, I appreciate her ability to push beyond the normal expectations.
Prof Loubser is not easy but you will definitely learn how to write properly. We wrote four essays, one research paper, and six journals. It is a lot of work but if you follow her instructions and outline, you will get a decent grade.
This class will make you want to enjoy writing. She cares about her students and helps them on their final grade, if she sees them working hard. Her class consists of 4 essays and journals (must read before class!). All in all, she's great.
This professor is very hard to get along with. She does not have compassion or understanding of students situation. Is extremely self-centered and to is very difficult to have a good grade. Is what she wants at all times. Is very hard in the classroom and does not help students to understand better.
Professor Loubser is a great instructor. She is not easy but she will tell you everything that you need to write a good paper. She even hands out outlines to help students with their writing. Overall, I took her over the summer session and I still enjoyed her class. I recommend her class to everyone.
she is not easy, but definately allows for an improvement. i made a c on my first paper, and she helped me and guided me, and i ended up with an a in the class. same with 1302. but you have to attend, participate, and want to learn from her.
1st SHES HOT and i know that everyone would agree. 2nd She makes us read 2 stories by the next day (10pgs)3rd she gives Journals, their fairly hard and one every week. 4th She grades real hard on the essays but its for our best so we can improved and lastly,just going to her class and looking at her cute face and dat cute smile makes u wanna learn
Great professor. She is very helpful, but you have to attend class because she gives quizzes and takes attendance. Her grades are not the easiest, but if you work hard you have nothing to worry about.
Great teacher!!!
Her class consist of 4 essays one is a research paper. Then 6 journals due at the end. As well as a few little quizzes here and there so read before class. One of the best teachers I have ever had. Of course I cant forget SHE IS SO HOTTTTT! gonna miss talking to her :)
Very strict on attendance but she missed some classes too.
Great teacher. She always worked with me. But I wanted to be a better writer. She is not easy, but I learned how to organize an essay and how to write a research paper. She missed class because she had the stomache flu and she made sure that we didn't suffer because of it. I think some people just like to complain!
very strict on attendance
She was awsome. Very clear about what she expects. I finally learned organization with my papers, if your a mama's boy and full of excuses don't take it only for dedicated mature students. The class will be a sucess if you apply yourself.
she is hard but extremely helpful. You actually can improve your writing skills a lot. She is great, always willing to help you with your papers.
very hard and unfair too strict
Professor Loubser is the best! It's simple. If you go to class(go early), pay attention, do all her assignments and follow her instructions to the letter, you'll be fine. She is friendly and extremely helpful. If she sees that you really want to learn, she will make out time to sit with you and help you understand.
always had A's in english i got a "c" and thats b/c i was very friendly.very opinionated and seems rude to some but if you want an easy class don't take her. you will learn though
I took her class over the Summer and it was well worth my time and effort. She is helpful and understanding of her students and if you put forth the effort and do what she says you will make a good grade. I followed all her outlines and guidelines for writing papers and made an A in the course. Just work hard and ask for clarification if you need.
This lady needs a reality check. She is one of the most obnoxious and arrogant people I have come across in a long time. She talks to people crazy and has no patience. I used to like writing but after taking her class, I dont ever want to write again.
She was pretty hard compared to the other teachers I had. But overall I learned a great deal. You have to be serious about learning if you want to do good in her class. She's strict but its for your own good. Don't take her if you're not mature enough to learn.
THE FIRST CLASS I WITHDREW FROM, SHE THINKS SHES PERFECT, I PASSED ENGLISH 4 WITH A 94 AVERAGE AND SHE GAVE ME A 0 ON MY FISRT ESSAY, DONT TAKE HER
Professor Loubser's class is no walk in the park. She grades hard, but it helps students learn. She is a very fun teacher to be around and is constantly making the class laugh. The atmosphere does change quite rapidly if you aren't on her good side. However, if you do the work and participate in class, she will be more than willing to help you. A++
She is def. not an easy teacher and will kick you out of her class if you miss more than 4 days. Though I did miss more than 4 days but I had a docs note so she didnt kick me out of her class. She does grade reallyyy hard and expects alot from her students SO DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN EASY TEACHER!
Really good teacher. She really helped me develop as a writer. Based on some of these reviews, I would not have picked her, but I am glad I did. She does not grade hard as long as you follow the outline and ask for help, you will get a good grade. I showed up, missed more than 4 days and still made an A. I recommend her.
I do not exaggerate when i say this lady has personal problems. She is very insightful when it comes to literature, however it does not make up for her teaching/grading/assignment policys, stricter than bootcamp. She is overall a terrible teacher with no sympathy to those who struggle in her class. DO NOT TAKE THIS LADY, SHE WILL RUIN YOUR GPA.
Horrible teacher , PLZ dont take her !!! She acts like shes is teacher at Harvard or yale . She has no mercy . HORRIBLE if you want to save your GPA dont take her
PLZ.Dont take her , she acts like she is perfect and she will give you a zero for your paper. ONCE AGAN PLEASE DONT TAKE THIS INSANE LADY !!!!
Professor Loubser is by far the hardest professor I have ever had. However, I can honestly say that I lerned so much about writing because of her. I love how structured her class is, it makes it so much easier to follow. Her outlines may seem a bit overwhelming, but trust me when I say its only for your benefit as a student.
Professor Loubser is a great teacher. I learned a lot in her class and I made a good grade. The only thing that made her class hard to get through is her attitude about every one else. She seems to think she is perfect and it can get annoying. She also misuses big words sometimes which is funny because she did criticize some students for that.
This professor is a bit difficult. SHe is willing to help you out though... before or after class. She grades very hard on essays. She just wants you to be able to write correctly. But she gives you chances by re-writes. I recommend taking her if you want to learn how to write. But don't take her if you are lazy.
She's very very very strict and it shows on her grading! I understand that English is a hard subject especially writing but she does expect too much from her students. I wouldn't take her again.
she really nice but firm and shes hot so its all good the papers you write time goes by quick so don't waste time.
I took her for English 1 & 2...I didnt learn anything in high school, especially not how to write good papers. If it wasn't for her, I would have suffered through college not knowing how to write papers, and would have a difficult time getting into grad school. If you want to learn real stuff take her! Shes very helpful
Hard teacher, but she explains the content really well. I would take her again (b/c she is hot) next year if I got the chance.
Her class was really hard, but it helped me write better papers. Plus, she is a very hot teacher.
I left the first day wanting to drop this class. I am so glad that I did not. One of the best professors I have ever had. Get ready to learn and follow directions. The best part is that she loves her job. That is hard to find in teachers these days.
Love this professor, she is straight forward and is strict but she is so helpful! she taught me how to write amazing papers! She expects you to be in class, participate, and expects you to be on time! Love her though, TAKE her if you want to learn how to write amazing papers!
Ms. Loubser is strict and expects you to be on time to class but she is very helpful and a great professor. I love her class and will be taking her again for English 1302.
She was very demanding perfectionist and all of the above. Over all she grades hard but she is very knowledgable so expect to learn a lot and work very hard. Dont take her if you don't have a lot of time to invest
She is a really hard professor. She has high expectation. However, you will learn a lot from her class if you really want to learn. She explains everything clearly at the beginning. You should read the assignment paper over and over again to meet her requirements. She is willing to help you but you have to make appointment.
Very strict teacher. If you slack off YOU WILL FAIL! In the beggining of the semester I hated this class but towards the end, I was very grateful for this teacher/class. She is a good teacher but this class is no free ride, you must be willing to put in work.
Great teacher! She explained everything very well. she was a bit hard, but her being a great teacher made up for that part. I did not like the look she gave that kinda made me feel stupid and/or crazy everytime i got something wrong. All she wants is for you to try your best, follow the rules, and participate.
Super easy. Take it if you want to fail.
She is a really great professor. You can not slack off in her class, if you do, you are going to fail! She explains her assignments clearly and posts them online. During writing workshops you can ask her questions about writing but another time you need an appointment. All in all, I really enjoyed this class!
She is very strict and has high expectations but she is fair. U must attend class or u will fail. I took her for english 1301 and 1302. I received a B in 1301 and an A in 1302. She is a great professor and is willing to help. I would highly recommend her if you are willing to learn.
I took this professor in Spring of 2011. She was excellent. She really taught me how to structure an essay and how to actually write it. She is a bit strict, but if you do the work, it shouldn't be too difficult to pass. She loves PARTICIPATION so read the text and participate in class discussions
Lady is strict but very helpful. I received a B. You will pass if you work hard if not you will fail. Guys take her shes hot.
Save your money and your Gpa It doesnt matter how hard you work in her class if she does not like you she will fail you. I recieved a B...but the class shrunk from 16 students to 6 students due to drops from poor grades..
Probably the best professor I have ever had. She is very passionate and strives to bring out the best in her students. I really enjoyed taking her class. She can be a little mean, but don't take it personally. Do not take her class if you are lazy... and dumb.
Awesome professor. Extremely helpful and kept class super interesting.
She is hard! I read the comments before signing up and thought I would be alright since I do my homework, but this class was super challenging. Expect to work 3-4 hours outside of class for every hour you spend in it. She will help you where needed when you are a dedicated & hardworking student. If you're not, don't bother, find a different teacher
It s not worth the challenge. She is very hard and will give you a zero on your paper.
Do not get distracted by reading any negative reviews. Like anything in life, read all directions, follow instructions, and do the work. A good grade is given for great work, bottom line. It's that simple! I learned a lot and got an A. Thanks, Professor Loubser!
Be prepared to write a 300 word essay for homework every night over the readings. This professor was extremely hard.....
Extremely difficult! I understand that some courses are challenging but this professor takes it to another level. Her deadlines are BRUTAL. We were expected to turn in a perfect 300+ word paper weekly. I'm lucky I escaped with a C. You've been warned.
Just do not be lazy. Be willing to sacrifice sleep and you'll walk out with an A.
Worst teacher ever! very difficult, and had to write an essay every single day. Her emails are pages long. She explains everything very thoroughlt but she is very boring and her deadlines are brutal. Do not take her unless you love writing and you understand and know what you are doing!
Very difficult. So much work, and have to put a lot of thinking and time on it.
Took this class at UHV online. She is great, easy class if you can keep up with the work. Make sure you follow her requirements listed in the syllabus. She gives great feedback, it will just take her two months to do so. You won't really know your grade until the last few days of class. FYI make sure to complete all discussion board questions!!
Best English professor I've ever had. Her assignments are tough but if you follow everything she teaches during her lectures, you should be able to make a solid grade. She is very helpful so you should seek out her during her office hours whenever you need help on your essay. Online discussions are easy and so are the online MyCompLab assignments.
Pretty scary on the first day, but if you do the work she'll help you out. Not a hard teacher if you're willing to participate. Extremely consistent and reliable.
I really have learned a lot from Professor Loubser, she is very clear and has her own way to teach. RECOMMENDED!!
She is engaging and makes English an interesting class. She can be very brusque and condescending when explaining deadlines and criteria. She's cynical enough to talk to everyone as if they won't follow instructions or do the work and it can be irritating at times. In a freshman class, you arent likely to get good group project members.
Professor Loubser is indeed the epitome of a college professor. She makes you work for your grade, which is not necessarily a bad thing. Her outlines and work are straight to the point, and she helps a lot throughout the semester. Professor Loubser can come off as intimidating, but she truly cares about her students, which is very rare these days.
Do not take this class unless you are ready to earn your grade. She is very intimidating, but also a very good teacher. She is very clear about what she wants, and if you do everything she says getting a good grade should not be hard.
Her class is like you were taking 4 classes in one. Assigns workloads of work, and it has to be done a certain way and how she wants it, if not you automatically get a zero for the assignment. its her way or the highway.
It's definitely a challenge. If you're a person like me that dislikes English, is hoping for an easy A, & procrastinates, this is not the teacher for you. In a weird way I really appreciate her and the fact that I didn't drop her class. I got rid of a lot of bad habits trying to pass this class. She will notice hard efforts and rewards that.
Very Very intelligent woman. She is very inspirational and nice if you pay attention to what she says. She is a hard grader, but it's only to make you a better writer. It's college, it's what you should expect. Turn in assignments on time and don't be late or miss class, and you should be okay. I finished with an A!
If you have passion for reading and writing this is the class for you. You won't get by for half-doing your work trust me. The key to this class is: DONT PROCRASTINATE! If you need help ask and she will attend you. She a very tough grader and will dissect your essay like a frog. If you put in the effort you'll pass. If not, don't even try it. Lol
If you expect a easy B, do not take her. She is the hardest teacher I have ever encountered at HCC.
I've taken Professor Loubser for the past two semesters for ENGL 1301 and 1302, and let me just say, I did not regret it. At first, she comes off as intimidating, and seems like the epitome of a college professor, but once you talk to her, she's really the sweetest person every. Take the class, work for your grade, and talk to her. Simple.
It was super scare at the first class. She has very high demand. However, just take good note in class. On your essay, reword what she said in class and you will be good. I though I will get D in this class after I received my 1st essay grade. Then i make an appointment to talk w her, all of my essay then improved. I ends up w an A.
She is nice, very helpful, and clear. work hard and you will be alright Good personality
She is nice and appreciates the hard work... be ready to read and work, but I am so sure that she will see and grade you on that.. Nice lady with good personality. She sounds hard but she is not... Helpful and Great Leader... * Read and make sure you do not ask stupid questions* Keyword: Read, work, respect , and show efforts Success
I took her for 1301 and 1302. I received a C in 1301 and had to drop 1302. She is very stern about how she wants her assignments completed and she is a hard grader. She also takes forever to grade assignments. She assigns many readings. I personally DO NOT recommend her.
RUN IF YOU CAN!!!! DO not take this professor theres a list of the best ENGLISH -LENIENT, CARING, prof. at HCC Brandon Hernsberger Laurel Lacroix Joe Mcdade Sabrena Belz Robert Lunday Selena Flowers Those are the top suggestions. and several others... No offense to Loubster.
Shes a really great teacher, the only way you wont pass is if you dont follow directions. its literally highschool work and impossible to fail. she looks intimidating and honestly couldnt care less about ur life however, she gives an outline for how she wants her essay and if u follow it the least u can get is an 80
Do-not-take-her. She'll make you do a thousand assignments. If you want a great English teacher for Composition I and II, I'd recommend you to take Mr. R Marshall. He's amazing. I dropped her 1302 class last semester and decided to take a chance with Mr. Marshall this semester. Honestly, it is the best decision I've ever made in my life.
she's one of the knowledgable and amazing professor. she might seem intimidating during first few classes as she wants us to follow the directions. she gives an outline for every essay and aims her student to follow it to make a good grade. she'll go beyond her ways to help you out to write a good essay. Tbh you'll learn a lot from her.
Comes off intimidating the first couple classes, but wants you to succeed in the class. As long as you are willing to work for it and take her class seriously you'll do just fine. She has clear instructions, hands out outlines for you to follow and gives you very detailed feedback from each essay to help you improve. You'll learn a lot!!
She is not an easy professor, she is tough, however, if you put effort in her class, you will definitely learn something. As a foreign student, i would say the class is way too hard for me, it takes me huge amount of time to complete her assignment. In short, easy A? No. Learning outcome? Yes. Take her if you are willing to spend time on it.
Very tough. Its the hardest class I have ever taken. She seems to be nice and like wants to help you but if you try to ask her again for confirmation she will be pissed off and asked you whether you paid attention in class. It is just so much stress. I know her good intention but that was too much. I personally do not recommend her.
Hard, tough, difficult. Don't try yourself, it's not worth it.
never take her class if you don't have good writing skill. The lecture is super heavy. 3 analysis essay, 1 research paper with 10 page, homework online and presentation.
She may be intimidating at first but she is one of the best professors I had in all my college years. She is wise and knows her grammar and literature very well. She's strict only because she wants her students to be great writers by the end of the semester. She is passionate about this course. She will guide you EVERY STEP OF THE WAY,so no worries
When I first encountered this professor, ngl, I was scared of her. But, she helped me with my essay and gave me great feedback on what I should and shouldn't add into my essay. She is a really tough grader and wants everything to be exactly as she wants it. You have to make outlines and essays, there are no tests. Overall she's not entirely bad. :)
I took her for English 1302 and let me say that she is the best English professor i have ever had. She really cares about her students and wishes for them to succeed in life as well in the class. She is willing to help.
Professor Loubser was very intimidating at first. As you get to know her you'll understand her. She gives very great feedback. Professor Loubser is a great professor and expects nothing short of effort and hard work. There are 3 essays including outlines for each of them. You have no time for procrastination. Make her class your top priority!
Extremely intimidating. The first week of class I contemplated dropping her, but if you're a student that values a true learning experience you'll realize her cause. Grades aren't given, they're earned. Time is sensitive in this class. You'll write at least 10K words in this class. You will learn in this class, or you'll cry. The choice is yours.
Professor Loubser is very intimidating. However, if you ask for help and for feedback about your assignments she is very nice. If you don't want to learn, become a better writer, or deal with a huge amount of stress do not take her.
Don't take her unless you're great at English. I've taken her twice and thank God I'm an English major cause she's a very difficult professor. The most important thing to know about her is that she does not care about your opinion. Not one bit. For essays, you need to write them from her perspective and what she thinks of the novels.
Professor Loubser is definitely not an easy A, but if you are focused, willing to put time into your papers, and don't stray away from key points in her lectures you learn ALOT from her. She is also intimidating and high maintenanced so do not miss deadlines.
Do not take her if you are not ready for a hundred assignments. Three essays ( 2 research paper), online hw, and oral presentation. Very stress
Our honors English class was a very tough one. One thing for sure that i got out of that class was how to actually write a paper. The class was very intense and reading was important. 3 papers and one final paper. Online homework and 3 presentations. Take the professor if you are really up for the task. Otherwise you shall be wasting your time. GL.
This lady is condescending and ridiculous. She loves boring Gothic literature. She will give you a zero or put you out of class if you don't do things exactly her way. Which is not very encouraging . She does know her stuff though and she will help you. Take her if you want to have high blood pressure and write 100 page papers on boring content
Withdraw immediately if u take this class for mistake
She makes you write research papers on short stories and novellas. She doesn't have tests so you a grade on your essay. She will help you to an extent. If you deiced to take her class GOOD LUCK! Had to drop a class cause her's was taking up to much time and focus of my other ones. She will make it seem like hers is the only you're taking.
Worst professor ever.
She is very rough around the edges. If you are an English major or want to improve your writing and critical reading skills i advise taking this class. She has HIGH expectations and WILL NOT CURVE any grades. We had 3 papers of increasing difficulty and a final essay covering the 3 stories we read. Hardest class I've ever taken.
Run for your life. I warned you!
I'M WARNING YOU RIGHT NOW, JUST DON'T!
Don't take this class. Don't take this class. Don't take this class. I can't say it enough. Don't take this class. I am an English major and I hated this class. Way too stressful and tedious.
If you're not a hardworking student, this class isn't for you. Otherwise, she's an amazing professor and will truly make you a better writer if you commit. She forces you to read beyond the text of novel, discovering the implied meaning, not simply the plot of the story. As a result, I have a newfound appreciation for literature.
Her class is so stressful. She makes you feel bad about yourself and your life. Study proves that you can learn better when you like the subject and enjoy it. However, she has opposite method. So if you have enough pressure in your life and need to enjoy more of your time, DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS.
If you are not ready to read and be graded very hard for your essays, then this is not the class for you. She is not a mean teacher nor a rude person, however she is very particular in how she wants things. She has the best intent for her students and wants to make sure you pass. I say take her because she going to teach you how to be a writer.
Mr. Loubser makes the learning clear and is easily approachable on any questions needed to be asked but she doesn't like slackers and she a really really tough grader. Before you take this class be prepared for work unless do not pick her.
If you have English as secondary language be aware you have to work double . She expects from us to write a pretigious essay without any errors . I feels like I am not ready for English 1302 even I did great in 1301.
Just don't think about taking her class even if it was your last option.
Awful professor for freshmen level courses. She will be the professor that overloads you with a ridiculous amount of work, which is unnecessary for a freshmen English course. Ive taken ethics, a sophomore level class that required half as much work as she requires.
So many papers, and no feedback from teacher, she grades very hard and doesn't give details as to why so you can correct for the next time.
Real tough work but your skills would certainly develop. Amazing class for me. You get really frustrated sometimes tho. ALOT of work.
The materials for the assignments are tough and be prepared to write a lot. However, if you follow her recommendations, you will benefit eventually.
Going into the class, you should already be aware of the basics of English pertaining to writing and constructing essays in a sufficient manner. Professor Loubser requires and expects the same level of competence from all her students no matter what age or background. She does not tolerate laziness and expects the best out of all her students.
Stay away! A friendly advice from a victim.
Professor Loubser is the first teacher I met who is willing to read my essay before I submit the assignment. She will go over the whole essay and tell you which part you should do some change. HOWEVER,I would not say this class is an easy A class, but it really a good class. I highly recommend the students who expect to learn things take her class.
took her for ENGL 3430 at UHV this spring 2020 semester. Her class is well structured and gives you examples of how she wants your assignments to look. Did not consider her hard 5 or 6 assignments and discussions due every friday. one big research paper 12 page minimum but it is related to your career. Choose her
Professor Loubser is the best professor I've had at HCC so far. She is not an easy professor, but you learn a lot about English and how to write clear, detailed papers. Don't take this class if you're not willing to work hard, because she has high expectations, but she is fair. She is great at explaining concepts and grading papers clearly.
If English is not your first language I dont recommend this class unless your English is good. If you take this class theres 3 essays and a final essay which count for most of the grade and some participation things that dont count a lot but still count. My experience in person was ok and online was better because we had been in person helped.
You can make an A but it is quite a bit of work. It is doable but you need time to do this class if you want to make an A. If you know basic English then you can take her and put in the work to get an A. Theres 4 essays and one group presentation and some participation assignments that are easy because you just have to do them or participate.
She is a though grader i do not recommend if english is not your first language. She also has 4 pretty longggggg essays.
She thinks she is teaching a Harvard class. This is community college. I had her when the pandemic started, she did not care about our success. She deleted emails that were sent to students about how we were "non-existent" to her and to not contact her, then insisted we reach out for help by the end of the semester. Take someone who actually cares.
That is my first time ever writing a review for any professor, but Professor Loubser is worth it! Never I had such an amazing teacher who actually knows what she is talking about. Once one student told me that after Professor Loubser, I will get an easy A in other English courses. That is 100% true! Hard work in class will succeed in the future!
Her class is hard but I become a much better writer after taking her class.
Essays got longer. Had a 10 page essay due, I passed with a C. She was a tough grader and I would not take her again. Run away
This teacher acts as if she is a professor to Harvard students. 5 page, 6 page, 8 page essays TO HER LIKING. She has no empathy for no one, I tested positive for Covid and got pnuemonia from it, she suggested I drop her class because she knew I wasnt going to pass. She doesnt care about any of your personal issues at all.
Whenever you submit something go check if u got everything cause she will give u an F for not having it her way exactly like this is community college not no four year university at harvard or something
Honestly, this class was the most difficult one I have ever had. Apart from that, she will make you write some longggggg essays the way she wants them. If you do not meet her expectations you will fail. I dont usually rate professors but I had to let people know STAY AWAY.
Shes awful. Her class is excessively hard for no reason. This is HCC not Yale. Her assignments are unclear. She gives way too much, super hard assignments, very little help, not enough time to do the work, grades very hard, and doesnt curve. This class is the only B Ive gotten, and I worked 4 times as hard as any other class. Do NOT take her. RUN!!
you feel a bit of anxiety when you first take her class, but after doing the work it becomes easier.
A very useless Teacher
The best Professor to help your writing. She helped me write better essays and gave constructive criticism. I would recommend her to anyone in college looking for An amazing English professor. She grades hard, but its worth it.
She's really smart. I'd be lying if I said you probably wouldn't benefit from this class. However, she's pretentious and overall bad at translating her intellect into something students can digest. One of the saddest traits in an educator. Assignments are excessive. Only take this class if you already have a strong background in English, and time.
Dont take her she is to difficult and make the class hard . Guys dont take this class
She is extremely smart, she puts in 300% every day so her students can be better writers. I'm so grateful and thankful to her. I really wrote such amazing essays in her class, I still can't believe myself to this day. Take her you will probably cry/have panic attacks but the end result is so worth it.
This professor does not explain much but she wants you to give a better explanation of your work. There are no rubrics used to grade the many pages written on required essays. Do not take unless you are a glutton for punishment.
She grades difficult. Mandatory 4 pages, 7-8 paragraphs, if not met, it was a 0.
This is worst professor to have. She takes 2 weeks just to grade one assignment so that you don't have time to withdraw. If anybody has extra money and wants to waste it. Take is garbage.
This was a very difficult class but if you pay attention and follow directions you will do well. Be prepared to read and do a lot of writing
right off bat she already gave us a very difficult assignment, very bad at explaining homework, talks alot about nothing, if your major is english you will probably find this class challenging already but for everyone else RUN!!
Professor Loubser's English 1302 course is no walk in the park. Her criteria for grading papers was of a very high standard.
Informed Professor about family emergency, was told I needed to become serious about her class. All I need to say.
She does answer her emails quickly, but I wouldn't recommend her since she's a tough grader she takes her class very seriously
If you're taking this for a credit look elsewhere, but if you want to take a class likely harder than those within your major then look no further. The supplementary readings are pretentious and there are a lot of criteria for each essay that gets more complex and numerous as the class goes on. She's a hard but fair grader and gives great feedback.
All glory to God! Few tips I used to pass: - Pray - Use plot summaries - Understand files in modules before writing - Ask the Professor lots of questions for clarification - Send thesis & topic sentences to Professor (to see if you're on the right track) - hcc tutors - Use essay feedbacks to improve on upcoming essays You got this! Best of luck!
She's great if you put in the work and effort for your grade. This is NOT an easy A class. Double check all your essays and make sure you follow ALL her guidelines. Apart from that, this class did improve my essays. And once you get to know her, she's a nice person.
I don't know why I see good reviews about this woman. Don't submit detailed outline before the essay a 0. If English is your second language DON'T MAKE A MISTAKE OF ENROLLING IN HER CLASS!! Even if she is the last professor, don't take her. She said she has pleasure failing students. This class will drain you, especially if you have plenty classes.
If you want to waste money take her class as a second english speaker. Don't take this horrible professor's class plsssss forget the good reviews. It is not what it is.
Terrible don't take her class LITERALLY RUNNN don't waste your money trust me I thought she was gonna be alright ABSOLUTELY terrible DOOO NOT TAKE HER CLASS SHES ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE
Prof Loubser was very kind and helpful as long as you made an effort and showed that you wanted to do well. The books we were given were fun to read, although we had to discuss with the class what we read, which may be difficult for students with anxiety. Maybe only take her class if you actually care about books/want to improve your writing skills
Whatever you do not take this class under any circumstances she is by far the worst professor I've ever taken in English 1302.
The semester's start can be intimidating, but hard work can lead to an A in this challenging yet informative English class. If you're not ready to put in effort, consider not enrolling to avoid failure. Use tutors and meet with her for essay reviews and alignment checks.
Don't take this class
horrible professor
Don't take this class under any conditions
If you even make one small mistake you get a zero on the essay. Even then, if you turn in an assignment late because you forgot to turn it in, forget about it you will get a zero. If you are taking this course make sure to check if you made any mistakes cause if you don't then you fail this course.
I had to read a 400-page book in 1 week, search for secondary sources that took me 5 days to find, look for primary sources that took 4 days to see and organize them correctly while being very behind in the writing process. I wrote my English Essay in 14 hours PLEASE stay away from this teacher I used to love reading and writing but not anymore.
Do yourself a favor and do not take this class. Her canvas is a mess, 10 different files for 1 assignment, her instructions are not clear and she gives you a 0 if you don't meet ONE of the minimum requirement for the assignment.
Take her if you want a C or if you're willing to retake the course. If you don't meet ONE of her minimum requirements, she will give you a zero. Take this advice from a 4.2 GPA student.
Tough class, but Unstuck ai helped with study prep. Professor has strict policies - one mistake and it's a zero. Avoid unless you're willing to put in serious effort.
Professor Loubser is a tough grader. However, she does make you improve your writing. She gives you an outline on how you should write things as a guide. I would say her Canvas is disorganized. Other than that, she's always open to help and answer emails, she also leaves comments on assignments to help improve.
Please don't take her class. The canvas is a mess, and she is a very tough grader. There are three essays, with 10 files of requirements for each one.
Her canvas is a mess. too many requirements in different files. if you miss one of them u can get a zero. my grade is F now and I still have an essay. please don't take her class (a piece of advice from a 4.0 GPA student). if you want a professor with detailed feedback you can take her.
I would not suggest taking this professor if you are able to avoid taking her class please do. Her canvas is extremely disorganized. She gives feedback which is great but the feedback is always the same comments. Her instructions are very short on discussion boards which is difficult trying to figure out what she wants in the assignment.
Don't take her class
In my college career I have never adored a professor as much as Professor Loubser. Her course is difficult but you will grow as a reader and writer. She is so passionate and incredibly knowledgable. There are 3 essays throughout the semester, however she is very willing to help. She is truly admirable. Take her if you're willing to put in the work.
This is the worse class I have ever done in my life, she does assingments with the wrong due date, and if you submit late you will get a 0, you have to pay attention on the due dates because she puts wrong and she posts the assingments 2 DAYS BEFORE THE DUE DATE, worst teacher ever, DONT TAKE HER YOU WILL FAIL!! I HATED THIS PROFESSOR, SO BADDDDDDD
Assignments have the wrong due dates. Instructions separated across 4 files, miss one thing = F. Replied to one of my emails complaining that I didn't "address her" first. Extremely tough grader. Almost no one was participating due to how confusing the instructions were. STRICT instruction to follow for every few sentences of your essay. SKIP!
I loved taking her classes. Her Canvas was organized and easy to navigate. Only 3 assignments and she gives over a month to work on each of them. She LITERALLY hands it all to you, you just have to follow her rubric. She purposefully makes herself appear intimidating, but she warms up. Tough grader, but if you follow her requirements, you'll pass.
I don't say this lightly Please, do not take this professor. If I could go back in time, I would do anything to avoid this class. No matter how hard you work, no matter how carefully you follow instructions, she will still find a way to fail you or give you a zero. For the sake of your hard-earned money and your peace of mind, stay away.
Very harsh grader. She gives 50s or even 0s for small mistakes on essays, and since there are only 3 major essays, one bad grade can make you fail. Other assignments don't help your grade much. She's not very understanding. You have to write 10-page essays on old stories that no one cares about. This class is stressful and not worth it!
Professor Gu illo tine is an extremely harsh grader, avoid for a fair shot. Full essays with citations & outlines still gets 0s for small mistakes, make sure to read 86 pages of instructions. Lied a few times but I have screenshots. Communication poor, & asking questions gets you vague responses or no help. Path etic educator.
This is the most extreme teacher I have ever had. What do you mean I have to look at three separate modules for every task in a single assignment? Drop right away after I saw them task lol
The teacher is great. I can guarantee the people that are hating on her didn't follow instructions.She gave precise instruction on what to do, what to avoid and her essays were easy, she told us on what to write in which paragraph, even gave topic sentences. U only have to find quotes & write your thoughts. Btw I got 95.2 in her class.
I've always been a top student when it comes to English. Writing, analyzing, and understanding literature have never been an issue for me I've consistently done well in all my past English courses. But this class was completely different. Despite putting in effort, I received an F.
This course entails three substantive essays and exhaustive guidelines. I endured many late nights to meet its rigor. Professor Loubser was accessible and offered incisive, formative critique. However, if one seeks facile credit, this is unequivocally not the course.
Do not take this professor i ignored this and learnt the hard way she is the worst professor i have ever seen.
Prof. is not objective. Is very difficult but very knowledgeable. B prepared to put your best foot forward.
Do not take this professor if you are looking for an easy class. I made this mistake. If you want to improve your writing, this might be the class for you.
Do NOT take this professor. If you make even 1 mistake, you will fail. The grading criteria was clear, but impossible to complete. This lady probably expects you to be a robot or something if you want to pass. Please, don't take her, this is a warning to future students. If you do take her, do so in person, it'll probably be easier that way.
she is a piece of dog "thing" honestly. The worst freaking professor I HAVE EVER HAD OH MY GOD. I GOT A A* ON MY O LEVEL ENGLISH LANGUAGE EXAM BUT PROLLY WILL FAIL BC OF THIS MOTHERFATHER PIECE OF DOG CRAP. She will stretch an assignment and ask for the MOST useless things on top. Like why do I need to do this when IM ALREADY DOING EVERYTHING ELSE
Take her if you want to end yourself or going through depression bc she sure will make you wanna end it all lol. Shouldve listened to my peers and dropped her sooner. Worst professor ever
