I really loved this class as a whole! It helped me more than I thought I would! Professor Watson's teaching style really helps students explore themselves as writers, and find what they are interested in. I would highly recommend his class to anyone who needs or enjoys writing in general. I had an absolutely positive experience! :)

This class was awesome! I really loved the entire class. It was easy to follow along; any questions were answered. It really helped me understand more about myself as well as writing. It was incredibly helpful due to me not knowing how to write an MLA formatted paper! Professor Watson was extremely precise and diligent to help when asked. :)

First time college student and I couldn't have asked for a better professor. Joshua Watson is a great instructor, he is caring and understanding, while also providing excellent guidance in the course. I honestly wish that I could have him as a future professor for other subjects. Thank you for helping me through my first semester, Professor Watson!

Professor Watson is my favorite Professor so far. He made this class fun by including some humor in his module instructions. He was also the most accessible Professor I have had yet. I could email him anytime, and although I didn't expect a response for a day or two, he always responded within minutes.

Professor Watson is a chill and caring professor. He is understanding when it comes to late work. However, taking the summer course is very hard and a lot of work. If you feel like you can handle that much, go for it. If not, take the regular 15 week course. All in all, I would take his class again!

Loved Professor Josh. Assignments always had a creative alternative if you didn't want to write, such as a comic strip or audio interview. Reading was easy and not super dense. Assignment variety was great and fun, not just five 20 page papers back to back. He was upfront with the late work policy, responsive, and a super funny guy. Recommend!
