The difficulty I had was due to the fact that I took the accelerated course, but Mr. Henderson made every effort to help students succeed. He gives clear lectures and instruction, so we knew the criteria he was looking for in our work. He checked in with everyone individually to ensure we understood. He is very approachable and compassionate.
I took his summer class, it was his first time teaching ENGL 1302 and I believe it was also his first time teaching a summer course. He crammed a lot of work into each lecture. There was also a reading assignment every night due the next day. He gives clear instructions and criteria but is a tough grader. Participation is a grade!
He's a great dude, 2nd year, really pulls for the kids, all around great dude. He is very strict on deadlines, no extra credit, homework every day and very tough grader. I decided to drop him because of issues out of school. The deadlines killed me but it is very doable, particpating every day and being timely efficent, should be a B+/A+
Was a great teacher, truly cared about everyones success. Was very clear with directions. Would definitely take the class again
He is by far my favorite teacher. His assignments do have a strict policy and there is no extra credit but his work is very straightforward. He really helps you understand the concept of everything and doesn't make you feel left out or dumb for not understanding. Mr. Henderson is an amazing professor!
Mr. Hendy! Dude is great and teaches very clearly. Never leaves anyone behind and wants the best for his students. The class participation and nightly reading is kinda annoying but helps you in the long run. Amazing guy fr.
He is a very nice professor that is always willing to listen. Makes you feel like you know what you're talking about even if you have no clue.
Very friendly. Enjoyed the lectures and gave really great feedback for my work. He was also very flexible with times and submissions. Definitely recommended, especially if you are unsure about English.
Mr. Henderson is great! I really enjoyed this class! The workload isn't too tough and as long as you turn in your work you should pass. He's very understanding and helpful.
On a good day the class can fly by.
Overall he is a great profesor gives great feedback NO TEXTBOOK required!! but he read to write a lot and good luck
Mr. Henderson was an excellent teacher and a great professor to have my first semester of college. He was extremely helpful, timely, and provided wonderful feedback on all assignments. His classroom environment was calm and relaxed and his personality was always fun to be around.
Very easy to understand expectations. Work is directly in correlation to information in lessons.
He is willing to work with you if you try and make it to class as well. He is very helpful with essays. That might be a strong just because he gives specific clear instructions!
He's a very accommodating professor. he is willing to work with his students and cares about the outcome of their semester. he gives consistent feedback and is very clear about his expectations. Overall a very very good professor.
He is a great professor, he wants to pull the best out of your writing skills and enhance them.
great professor ,will teach you a lot about writing and he makes the class easy.
Supper easy class, Made his lectures really easy! There was 4 essays total all fairly easy and no final.
This is a very good professor he teaches well just make sure your essay is good, one thing is he might hold you back for a few extra minutes after class ends.
He is a really good teacher you will do worm ups as a grade it is a easy class.
Mr. Henderson is so nice, he is a good professor he gives back good feedback on what you need to improve on. Easy assignments, the lecture is easy to follow as well, just come to class do the assignments and you will pass. He also doesn't require the textbook, overall I would take this class again with Mr. Henderson if I could.
Mr. Henderson's expectations for essays are clear and his feedback really helps you improve on your writing skills. There are notebook checks, participation, four essays (including final) and a couple assignments. He cares about his students and is a very nice professor, one of the best I've taken so far. I would definitely recommend taking him!
Every class is beneficial information and missing classes can get you behind since the professor is able to into depth with the information in person it is recommended to not miss a class. Another good thing that helped me learn in his class was wanting us to participate in class so we can actually learn.
Hendy should change his name himdy because he is him. Professor Henderson's was pretty easy for the most part. For every essay he goes step by step on how write it and is not tough grader. Be thankful that you were graced with an easy-going professor.
Overall Great professor !
I do recommend taking Mr. Henderson as your comp 1 professor. Every class period is very beneficial not only to you but to your overall grade. His expectation are very clear and the feedback you receive is very helpful. Overall, Hes a really good professor and wants whats best for his students!
Gives proper and straight forward feedback, goes around the classroom and asks if any students need help and actualy explains. Highly recommend taking, there is no textbook.
He is one of the best professors I have ever had. We have 4 essays in total including the final. For all of the essay except the final you can get up to 10 points back if you do the revisions. Even if you don't participate at all you still get points but it would be recommended to participate. He doesn't judge and is open.
Great teacher
This class is fairly easy. Come to class to get the participation grade and go over the materials. There are 4 essays but he breaks it down to when it's time to write the essay it just comes togehter. Mr. H is also very understanding so if you have an issue or are going through something just communicate with him. You also can revise essay
In total we had 4 essays for this course as well as one extra credit opportunity at the end of the semester. For the first 3 essays you have an opportunity for revisions which are simple. The feedback Mr.Henderson provides is helpful and detailed. He was my favorite teacher this semester.
Mr. Henderson gives a calm, relaxing, and positive environment in the classroom. He gives clear instructions and directions during lectures. The assignments may be quite difficult to work on, but he gave wonderful feedback on every assignment.
Mr. Henderson was an excellent professor and I would absolutely take him again. He class is very entertaining but requires you to be very involved in his lectures which is quite easy. He clearly explains his assignments and is always willing to help when you have questions. He was a great professor for my first semester.
he is a great teacher but he grades hard on the essays and he starts off with a hard lesson in the begging of the year
He is a great teacher, and always answers students' questions. It's just that he grades the essays a bit hard, but the class has extra credit.
He is greats teacher, straight forward feedback, calming, clear;y to explain. But he grades so hard on the essays and homework. But at least this class will help you understand and know how to writing the essay.
He is super understanding and considerate. highly recommend taking this class
Mr. Henderson is one of the greatest professors I have taken. He is really understanding and chill. The assignments he gives might be difficult but he'll give you really great feedbacks to improve your essays. He gives you time to work on your assignments if you turn it in late he will take off a couple points and it's better than nothing.
His powerpoints which he does his lectures on are accessible on canvas and are very good notes and lectures. His feedback on essays and help on assignments are thorough and easy to understand and follow upon.
The lectures are great and easy to understand. Taking notes is mandatory but definitely worth doing. Teacher is super awesome and gives great feedback on assignments. My only criticism is that he grades the homework assignments on a 1-10 grading scale, so really try to get 9's and 10's. Essays are graded on a 1-100 scale so that good.
Professor Henderson was extremely patient and helpful! Great for freshmen.
Very good and straight forward teacher.
Mr. Henderson is a great teacher that I would 1,000% take again. His attendance isn't mandatory, but he grades participation points, so it's important to be in class and talk. He gives great feedback on essays and homework so ask and email him whenever you have questions. I highly recommend him, please take him.
He's a very tough grader. However, he gives us really good feedback. Overall, he's a great teacher.
He is good at helping people understand what the essay is about. I learned a lot about how to explain and "tell more" about a topic.
Pretty good class, grading was a little hard and the essay took a while to be graded.
He is a great guy who doesn't give lots of homework. He tries his best to relate his topics to thing going on right now in today's world.
Mr Henderson is a teacher that actually caress about the wellbeing of his students, I really liked how he would check in with my progress on my assignments.
He's a great teacher.
Try your best but if you need any help he is always willing to. Check Canvas because there are resources on there that will help you whether it's example essays or PowerPoint with information.
It's lowkey hard but hes pretty good.
Very easy class compared to other english 1301 professors.
This professor is very good on feedback, but also picky when it comes to essays. All you have to do is pay attention to the lectures and be able to write your essays.
I would take this class again
Mr. Henderson has Attitude. He's good though, his essay planning and structures are very helpful, good feedback!.
Mr.Henderson is great at teaching and he is well-spoken. He grades slightly hard.
Mr.Henderson does a really good job of making his lectures easy to understand and accessible. His class is very essay-based. He also gives very direct feedback. He lets you know why you received the grade you got and what could've been done to improve it. So, overall a very great teacher, I can honestly say my writing has improved.
The essays themselves are not too difficult especially since he is very helpful in answering any questions or reviewing your essays. You can revise your essay for a better grade and he leaves very good feedback. Would recommend this professor and would take this class again.
bud says he's not a hard grader but he is ! he's a little sassy but he let's us out of class early so it's okay !
He's amazing
He is chill but grading may be strict if you don't follow his strict criteria's. He won't let you fail on your daily work but don't BS it or else you're going to get a 7/10. Probably a 6/10. Just make sure to keep up with the work he gives you and make sure to follow his strict instructions. Don't be scared to ask stupid questions!
Prof Henderson was a great professor who taught me many things aboutliterary tools that I will use for now on with my essays.
He is a hard grader that gives excellent feedback
The class was fairly easy, however, sometimes the grading can be confusing. He can be very funny if he gets along with the class and you talk to him.
Very picky grader, make sure to be very thorough and intent on emphasizing how you have all of the requirements.
Professor Henderson does a great job of conveying the material and gives amazing feedback on the assignments. The notes are essy to understand and the essays are not difficult to write.
Professor He season does a great job of conveying the material and gives amazing feedback on the assignments. The notes are easy to understand and the essays are easy to write.
Professor Henderson does a great job of conveying the material and gives amazing feedback on the assignments. The notes are easy to understand and the essays are easy to write.
He is a pretty good teacher but you really have to pay attention to understand his class and also be careful on his essays because he is a tough grader.
Its consistent work and you have to stay on top of it. If you want to have tops grades you have to put a lot of effort and don't get behind.
He is a great teacher that makes the material in the class very easy to follow. He mainly teaches the whole class and allows you plenty of time do get your work done.
His feedback on essays are immaculate. They clearly define what he is looking for which you can use to improve your next essay. Absolute superb
The class was a little boring, but the feedback on the assignments was very helpful, and it was easy to get an A as long as you pay attention and do the homework.
As long as you use the notes, templates, and examples, and apply your critical thinking skills to this class then you should receive a successful outcome and good grade.
Be prepared to elaborate a lot.
The professor was great. His lectures were interesting and engaging. The quickwrites were not very short and required a lot of effort. The essays were not too difficult. It is very easy to pass the class, as long as you pay attention in class and participate in the lessons. He has a little bit attitude sometimes.
He is honestly a pretty chill and fun dude. His assignments were never too hard but, he was deadline heavy about assignments though. His lectures are pretty easy to follow and are never too complicated. He is also very good on feedback, most assignments he grades he will give he will tell you his opinions.
He is very interactive and wants his students to be successful.
The more you participate the better
Mr. Henderson was a good professor overall. There is roughly 3 essays throughout the semester, but he explains the expectations and guidelines very well. He gives good feedback and is helpful when it comes to needing help/explanations.
Prof. Henderson is a good teacher who goes into detail about the units that most teachers wouldn't.
I enjoyed this course a lot, but I would say you should be ready to read the material thoroughly and be ready for discussion in class. Take notes and actively participate in discussions so you can apply them to the daily quickwrites that are mandatory. Be sure to try the quickwrite because it will be useful in building future essays in this class.
He gave an adequate amount of extra credit, and his feedback was really good and timely on almost all of our assignments.
Participation is a grade but it helps. Lots of extra credit. Lectures are boring - boring bc they're over things we already know. Lots of reading outside of class & some may not be sense - so use online analysis. Rough drafts are due the next class but the outlines help. He is sassy & contradicting but he will help you if you have questions a lot.
The class wasn't bad but be prepared to talk. If you don't like to talk in front of the class you don't want to take this class. There wasn't a big work load but make sure you read the story assigned every class or you will struggle. Make sure to take notes because that is a grade and make sure you know how to elaborate on everything you say.
He is pretty laid back, just make sure you are on top of everything and that you don't fall behind. In the quick writes, always explain why you said something and make sure you are ready to talk because he has a participation grade based on how many times you speak your opinion about something he is discussing. Overall have fun in ENGL 1302!!
Although class gets boring at times, I loved how passionate he was about his coursework and how he answers his email quickly and consistently. There was a quick write due almost every class, and in class participation counts. He gave excellent feedback on all assignments & many extra credit opportunities!
There is a lot of talking involved and you're graded on your participation however this is very helpful for assignments. The participation allows to get different perspectives that could help you on your essays and forces you to understand the material. The class also isn't as boring as others because of this engagement.
Overall okay class.Participation matters.I personally find it difficult to speak in public spaces so this was a little bit of a struggle but if you don't participate you don't get the credits needed so definetly get ready to speak in class.His grading system is a little bit questionable at times but overall okay.
gives great feedback, don't bs essays, or QW's make sure you try. you get a discussion grade but its really not bad at all don't worry. make sure u actually the notes in class, extra credit is available, he is chill overall. I'd take him again, talks a little much but he is a engl prof so..
This was a great class. It was super fun. The material wasn't hard. Great feedback was provided
As long as you follow the rubric, you're going to make an A on each of your essays. Plus, he gives out so much extra credit that you're bound to get a good grade. I would recommend John Wayne Henderson II.
I love John Wayne Henderson. He is so cool and I love his Hawaiian shirts and hats. He is so funny sometimes and I really appreciate the grades he gives me on my essays. I appreciate all his comments that he leaves. He is stingy sometimes.
Amazing
Professor Henderson is not a very strict teacher. His work if very clear and very understandable and if you have any problems, just ask! Very lecture heavy, but incites thought-provoking answers and good discussions. Also, make sure to talk to get discussion points!
The class was very easy to pass as long as you did all your work and followed the rubric. The daily hw assignments were very easy, the presentation was fun and we got treats, discussion and participation is a mandatory grade. This class was very entertaining and we got a lot of treats but sometimes his talking gets a little boring.
you have to participate in order to be successful in this class. he is really nice and honestly does care about his students.
Mr Henderson's class is pretty straightforward. You can expect the same assignments just with different stories. The essays are pretty straightforward as well and his feedbacks are helpful. You will be successful if you follow the rubrics and communicate with him.
Henderson focuses on presentations and the student's thoughts on the writings. He promotes his students to be truthful in their writing. There are reading journals due at the start of every class, but they are very easy and can be very informal.
He's a fine teacher and has a lot of grades. He can be a picky grader and extra credit aren't worth that many points. He's kind of sassy too.
Professor Henderson is a great educator! The class criteria are extremely clear, and he gives amazing feedback on your assignments. He gives opportunities for extra credit. There are no tests which is probably my favorite thing. Class discussions are really fun and are structured to get your brain thinking. Lots of reading, but as to be expected.
Professor Henderson's class is very self explanatory and the assignments themselves are very simple yet repetitive. He is great at giving feedback and answering any questions you might have. The use of presentations over every story allow for a lot of discussion that will help you form a deep understanding of each story.
You read a lot but only have 2 essays, he gives good feedback
Professor Henderson takes participation seriously, 2 essays weigh 50% of your grade. He can teach and you have to put effort in your work. He provides feedback and extra credit. Other than that, he's kinda sassy but a fun teacher to talk to.
He was okay.
Professor Henderson is a overall good professor, I just didn't really like the way he graded but some of the reasons my grade was low are because I would sometimes turn them in late or sometimes wouldn't know what the quick writes were about because I had missed class. I would recommend him but I personally wouldn't take him again.
I really enjoyed having Prof. Henderson as my teacher and mentor. He provided amazing and organized lesson presentations. He'd go into depth over each topic with world-relating examples that helped. I'd recommend him! Even though his grading is a tiny bit strict, it's for good reason. He gives quality feedback with reasonable explanations each time
Very understanding. All notes are in Canvas. We read from the textbook there's usually an audio of it somewhere. Its a bit of reading for a writing class. We write over the book we read. And he gives extra credit
I can see how some people like him but I personally would not take his class again. His attitude can sometimes be rude towards students for no reason .
Mr Henderson demands your best work on assignments, but he is very laid-back and easy to work with. Class participation is a grade, but it is pretty easy to get those points; you just have to be willing to share your thoughts. You won't fail from not being a good enough writer, only if you don't do your work.
There is a participation grade, but if you really understand the content, points are easy to get. There are no tests/quizzes so that's a plus.
Professor Henderson's class is engaging, with clear expectations and valuable feedback. While somewhat strict on grading, the material is approachable with dedication. The textbook and class discussions deepen understanding. unstuck AI was a helpful study tool alongside the free course materials.
was super kind and helpful. had clear grading expectations and left very helpful feedback on all essays and assignments. he was also super considerate
Very nice a
He talks a lot
Mr. Henderson was very clear about what he wanted in our essays, which made it easy to follow the rubric and know what you're getting grading on. The class was interactive and not boring, which I enjoyed. Participation is very important and you are graded on whether you participate in class.
He is very compassionate! Gives great feedback and just an overall amazing professor!
You usually have a small reading before each class and have to do a reading journal. Doing these are very helpful. His lectures during class are very helpful in understanding the assignment/notes. You don't have a lot of major grades, the homework was very easy.
Great professor, very easy going and friendly. Not hard to get a good grade.
Very good professor and make our assignment expectations very clear, we do have homework every day and majority of reading and assignments are done outside of class and class is used for lecture. Essays are pretty and easy to get good grades and there's good support if your confused, you can also earn 10 points on each essay.
He is a great professor, very informational and nice. He works with a tough Schedule and is understanding. Overall a good teacher and I enjoyed his class.
He does discussion points, which causes the whole class to be more engaged and collaborate our ideas openly. There were no tests, we just did daily reading journals, which was fairly easy. Overall it was not a very difficult class, you just have to read the rubrics he posts and follow them and you'll get a good grade.
The lectures can be pretty boring and he won't be very clear in what he expects out of your essays but he is very easy to work with and lenient when it comes to assignments. Overall the class was pretty easy to pass you just have to try and he'll pretty much give you a passing grade. I would recommend him to other students.
He is a good professor and is good at giving feedback about the essays. Sometimes can get a little confusing but he will figure it out.
He helps a lot with essays and other assignments. If you ask for help he definitely helps very good and gives you a lot of information.
Decently easy class, just make sure to participate in class debates/readings to get your discussion points up. Overall he's a good professor and I enjoyed taking his course.
I like how he did essays in this class. They all had a pattern when it came to writing all of them which made it pretty easy. He also gives feedback on basically all assignments and they were all easy to understand as well. He's a cool guy. :)
He's chill the class isn't too hard but gets boring
As long as you listen and do what you're told the class is very easy and the teacher is very kind.
Classwork is doable, the professor is understanding and has good lectures. Discussions were cool, class was good.
John Henderson was very friendly and understanding when students had questions. When he was grading essays he took the time, to thoroughly respond to each person. I would 100% recommend this teacher.
He does have work to do every class so it is easy to fall behind on his "notebooks" but the work is fairly simple and straight forward.
Mr. Henderson is a very open professor, and it's clear he's passionate about teaching his students English. He cares a lot and is always willing to answer questions and offer help. I would recommend taking this class.
When students first step foot into his room, he made it clear he will be a fun, but has high expectations. I enjoyed these high expectations for students because it help students, like me, strive to reach those expectations on essays and class participation. I would take his class again and found him very fair and welcoming. Enjoy his class!
This professor will help you understand how to write the essay properly, and will give you a chance to change grade after you got your essay grade. He explains everything you need in class, so if you have a chance to attend, please do. Also, you will need to read textbook stories, but thay are easy to read and most of them pretty interesting.
Teaching style, lecture and discussion is heavy so the textbook readings are important. He is sassy but it makes the class interesting along with the discussion. Gives actual feedback on essays and assignments. Would take again, good class and its not hard.
Taking this class was fun and has made me come out of my comfort zone. If you are someone who is shy and doesn't really like to talk in class, be prepared to talk in this class unless you want no discussion points. But don't be afraid to talk because you can only get better. If I could, I would rate this class a 7/5 because it was that good.
He was a pretty good professor and had a lot of knowledge about the topics. Everything we learned about when into detail and so we ended up learning a lot. The only thing is that you have to turn in your work because it's a big part of the grading. He won't let you turn in anything late without taking points off, but he is still fair about it.
Professor Henderson's class is very interactive! The more you are outspoken in his class, the more you will see his goofy personality. His class consists of 3 major essays, and everything else consists of daily assignments and reading journals.
he will glaze on you
He is such a helpful professor! This class has taught me so much and allowed me to truly write better. I would take this class again and be ready for open discussions.
hes cool, very fun and funny
Sendy Hendy is pretty funny, really chill, and loves to yap. best English class yet even tho the readings are boring.
Class is fairly easy if you stay on top of due dates. Nothing too crazy but the class definitely requires effort. Very cool guy as well.
Great professor, he taught me a lot about examining readings and how to relate them to the modern world.
He is very helpful and if you talk in class you will be fine. There is a lot of reading but the homework is pretty easy and up to your interpretation. He is very willing to help you understand.
I would say yes, he is a tough grader, but he gives good feedback on all the assignements in a timely manner. I liked the class discussions because everyone has to participate, but I wish there was more assignements beyond discussion questions.
He does have a lot of assignments but there pretty easy and your grade is pretty straightforward. He gives good comments on your past assignments to better improve your future assignments.
This professor assigned A LOT of work. Reading every day after class, just to get lectured every day in class. There was not much learning for me, due to always being busy reading and filling out pointless "Reading Journals." On top of that, we would get essays, projects, and other assignments that did not help me better understand the material.
He's pretty chill and will provide feedback and let you revise the essays. His lectures are also pretty fun, but it's a lot of reading so just be prepared.
He's a chill guy but I personally didn't like the way the class was graded. Some of the grades were based off class participation and I don't always want to share my thoughts out loud so it hurt my grade. Also lots of homework be prepared to do a reading journal every night and do lots of writing every day in class.
Mr. Henderson teaches some boring classes but he makes them fun, and easier to understand. The way the class is set up you just have to read something before class and do a quick assignment about it so that you're not overwhelmed but you can also understand the reading. The lectures aren't boring and he gets the whole class involved. Great class!!!
His class is easy as long as you get the work done. He's pretty chill too.
Overall chill and very easy going.
John Henderson is very clear. He makes the class fun. He is very open about feedback on assignments and any question you may have.
Professor Henderson is a great teacher. He makes sure you understand the topic and wants you to talk back. He is very strict on grading but does give you feedback to know what you missed.
I think he was a good professor and I learned a lot in this course, however if you have a closed, pessimistic mindset then you won't get anything out of it- I didn't have a problem with this. Sometimes he would grade stuff and it would seem iffy but if you ask about it, he'll help you understand. The essays were pretty chill and easy to correct.
Attendance is technically mandatory, but I would say that if you miss a class, it isn't the end of the world. He grades discussion points, so be sure to be ready to give your thoughts and answer questions. He is very personable and likes to relate to the students, but makes sure to keep things appropriate. Great professor!
It felt very frustrating because we would look over essay outlines and I would feel confident in his feedback and would recieve one of the lowest scores in my class after he just said I was right on track. I would even implement his comments on my last essays into the latest ones and I felt like he didn't actually teach me how to get better.
He's a pretty cool teacher. He can be funny at times when he's not teaching us about the topics.
Mr. Henderson is a very patient and understanding person, his teaching style is not difficult, he has a easy to follow format, and the practices that he gives actually help. Overall he is a great professor.
Mr. Henderson is pretty chill. When we do assignments in class with partners, we go over it to understand what we did. He's really good at responding to emails and questions and is available after-hours as well.
He's a good professor but the only thing I would complain about is the required discussion points.
He is a super cool guy and his class is easy and fun. Just make sure to participate in the questions he asks which are all fairly easy and you will get a free grade for the discussion.
Mr.Henderson is a kind person. But I feel like sometimes I don't understand the point he is trying to get across, and that makes it difficult to do the best that I can in his class. Also he does tend to over talk which most times makes everything very confusing. But he is a nice person and he still tries to help us understand it.
He's great overall. Great and hands on lectures, clear grading criteria, funny and accessible. Very understanding and willing to help you work through problems. 100% would take his class again.
HIs teaching in super in depth and he is well managed with his lesson plans, he aight overall
He da goat but is lowkey a hard essay grader if you don't know what he is looking for.
Great Guy and gives good feedback on what you did wrong or might need to fix. Overall enjoyed the class.
The lectures were not boring and I actually enjoyed his class. The course was structured well and you knew what you have to do each day. The deadlines are reasonable and manageable. He grades essays kind of difficult, but you are given thorough feedback. You can always ask for suggestions on your rough draft to do better for the final essay.
I believe Mr. Henderson is a really great teacher. He is very good at teaching and he remembers his slideshows down to a tee which I believe makes it an interactive class instead of him just reading off of a computer. I think his grading is good and I can tell he takes time to carefully read each persons work and give good feedback. We love Hendy!
He gives good detailed feedback on assignments and essays. Also pretty funny and gives good lectures.
He is great one of the best professors I have has and he makes us get involved which I Love
Overall a great professor! Taught how to format essays very well. There were a few instances he would contradict himself telling me to fix something on a rough draft, then marking off on the final essay where the fix was made. He low-key sounds like MatPat when he talks and my only complaint is he never says "that's just a theory".
The class was good, and I learned a lot
Really helpful in feedback and is very engaging I never felt drowned in work or bored In his class. He also goes into depth on each essay and gives out assignments that help you understand the essay better. He is also pretty funny.
Mr. Henderson is a very good english professor. He doesn't give large amounts of homework and gives enough time to complete the assignments. He's a very relaxed guy but still lectures each class and actually teaches the class.
I want everyone to know that this professor is very down to earth and relates to each student while being a teacher and give good credit.
Overall a super engaging class with easy to digest material. It's important to be in class to get discussion points for your grade at the end of a unit. Super understanding and really easy to communicate with. A class I would definitely take again!
Overall amazing professor who understands his students, gives good feedback, and teaches at a level so that anyone can easily understand him like with real world examples and his own knowledge he puts to use in order for us to relate to the lectures.
He is a hard grader, but gives you credit for the effort you put in. There is little to no busy work in this class. Every assignment feels intentional and purposeful, which makes learning easy without being overwhelming. Overall one of the best English teachers I've had, and I would take his class again. He's also a chill guy.
He was overall a excellent professor for the students. He was very easy to understand when lecturing and engaging with the class. He graded a little harshly but it wasn't bad at all. He has a lot of witty humor and I feel there was a genuine care about his students.
Very good explanation of lectures and gives amazing feedback.
Mr. Henderson was really helpful when it came to essays. He always answered any questions needed and gave a clear reasoning. Always used outside examples during lectures and it helped me understand when needed. I would for sure take his class again!
The professor was very professional and good at conveying the information that we needed clearly and efficiently. He always seemed to grade fairly and was not super difficult but also was not just giving points out for lousy work.
Mr. Henderson was one of the best TCC professors I've had! While he is a tough grader, Mr. Henderson gives clear feedback to help you improve your essays. He always allows you to correct essays for up to 10 points. If you don't do well on your essays you receive in class discussion points and completion notebooks grades.
You have 4 essays and that's the bulk of your grade. There are minor assignments like discussing points and notebook checks that boost your grade. He is a tough grader for essays but I haven't got below a 89 for any of them. It's not a hard class but also not a free class either.
The professor was a very put together professional teacher who brought his best work every day. He was a very effective professor and I learned a lot in this class. I definitely would take this class again.
Me Henderson was an amazing Professor. He gives little to no homework and gives extra credit on some assignments. He can be a tough grader but if you pay attention in class you shouldn't get a low grade. I would 100% take this class again.
Mr. Henderson is a very good professor if you're looking to take a class. He gives us clear instructions for assignments and helps when you do not understand something. He is also very understanding when it comes to being busy and forgetting to submit an assignment. I would take this class again.
He is very well spoken and very easy to understand. He gives extra credit and just make sure you participate and do your work.
He was good I guess
Mr. Henderson is a good professor! His workload isn't a lot unless you make it a lot. The essay days are the best because basically they're free days. He is also very understanding! I'd rather have his course for both 1301 and 1302 because I at least know how he is and his tendencies.
He is a good professor but course is very essay heavy and he never gives 100s.
John Henderson deserves his flowers. A professor of true passion, wanting the best for his students in terms of understanding course material. Always speaking positively when giving you feedback. Never wanting you to feel wrong or like you don't understand. I enjoyed having him, the learning atmosphere was one of great qualities.
I thoroughly enjoyed Mr. Henderson's class he was very helpful when assisting me on my assignments. He most specifically assisted me the most when I was writing my essay's by giving me very good feedback on how to improve my writing and as the course went on I would say that my writing did change for the better due to his help.
Mr. Henderson is a great and funny professor, I just believe that he's a really tough grader and it's kind of difficult to make an A in this class. my advice is to turn in assignments in time and double check if your assignment have complete every criteria in the Rubric.
he is a great and gets sendy
This guy is really good. While attendance is not mandatory or affects your grade, it is very helpful to be in class because there are lots of lectures.
Professor Henderson was a really great teacher. For British Literature, he would breakdown and give background information about the literature and truly help us understand the idea it was trying to get across. His essay's are a little difficult, his rubric was very specific but after the fist one it was really easy to keep the flow of the essay.
Professor Sendy Hendy is amazing. His passion for Brit Lit is contagious, making texts engaging. He makes a supportive classroom where every student feels comfortable sharing ideas. His dedication to students' success really lights the room. Great class.
He was very understanding when we couldn't be in class. He was also very respectful and I felt as though I was abel to breath in that class and he was very fun to learn with. He was always respectful and was really enjoyable to have a class with.
Mr. Henderson doesn't grade based on attendance, but you must be in class to get discussion points. He gives direct, clear rubrics for essays and allows 10 points back for revisions. He is super understanding and caring for all his students, and wish I could take him again!
He is a good professor, though he does give feedback that comes off very contradictory once you correct what he is asking for. Its hard to understand the writing that he prefers from his students.
Professor Sendy Hendy is great and he made the material easy to learn. He was quite funny and he compared our topics to real life and he gave pdfs of our readings to make them easy to access.
He is very passionate about his job and he loves what he does!
He is an amazing professor who enjoys what he does, he is fair in grading as long as you read and turn in your work on time, he makes everything very accessible and overall definitely my favorite teacher this year.
He is a good professor and can make Brit Lit fun he gives good feedback and wants us to succeed. He does actually read everything you wright so you have to be meaningful. He is a very kind and fun professor.
John Henderson deserves his flowers. A professor wanting the best for his students in terms of understanding course material. Always speaking honestly when giving you feedback. I enjoyed having him, the learning atmosphere was very fun and engaging.
Mr. Henderson was very easy to engage with. He helped us understand the text in a literal sense as well as what it would say connecting to its time period.
The class is pretty chill, it's a heavily discussion based class. As long you do your reading journals and show up to class, you'll make a good grade in the class.
Professor Henderson inspires growth by pushing students to think boldly and believe in their own potential. His passion for learning creates an atmosphere where challenges feel like opportunities. He leaves everyone feeling capable, motivated, and ready to aim higher. Great Class.
Very good professor on a 1-10 work load I'd give it an 8 however its not extremely difficult to do or anything. The work you do is very cool sometimes and the books are pretty interesting I thought I wouldn't like some of them and ended up enjoying them a lot.
Mr. Henderson is a knowledgeable professor, he does grade tough so make sure your assignments meet the rubrics criteria. There are reading journals over the novel we are reading every class period, the reading journals are homework due before each class period. The major grades are essays and are all explained well. Be ready to talk a lot in class!
From the moment he walks into the room, the atmosphere shifts. Time seems to fly by and our minds become enlightened. He is a very good professor, and his lectures are actually entertaining. All you have to do to pass is to read short passages assigned every few days. Your life will become divided into two parts: Pre Henderson, and Post Henderson.
I really enjoyed this class as someone that doesn't like English classes. He teaches the class very well and your expectations are clear. You don't need your textbook because he leaves links to all the stories. Brit Lit 1 has 3 essays and a group presentation besides those 4 things, class is all about reading the story and discussing it in class.
This professor is great he is very understanding and wants you to succeed he is a tougher grader and participation matters a lot in his class! overall he is a great Brit Lit teacher and I would take it again if I had to.
Mr.Henderson is a funny, engaging, and understanding professor. We mainly did reading journals everyday and after discussed them with the class. He is one of the harder graders so I would make sure to look over all your assignments and make sure it meets the requirements and participation matters so be ready to talk a lot in class.
