VERY HELPFUL AND VERY NICE AND FUNNY
She's a great professor. Very helpful and gives every opportunity to succeed. Make classes enjoyable.
Professor Maxwell has truly been a blessing for me. I like her style and compassion for helping students. Please use her every chance you get.
Prof Maxwell was the best english teacher i have ever had. Her classes were very fun and intresting. She a very outgoing person and will always be there to help. Dont doubt yourself with her you will do great if you do all the work... Remember she makes the class a fun place to be. Love her I would take her class again in heart beat.
makes class intresting, but what most fasinates me, pardon for saying, is her behind. she has a beautiful behind. especially when she walks around writtting on the baord and it jumps around <3 hotness
Professor Maxwell is the best English teacher she is soooo helpful she always has a big smile on her face and does not mind if she has to explain things over again, she is so down to earth and understanding, she makes class fun she's looks so young it's like having one of your friends teaching your class! she's great
Prof. Maxwell is one of the coolest professors in Union County College. She gives a nice quantity of work, but it is easy to get an A in her class if you keep up with the work.
Good Professor! grades good. good all around person. I suggest that anyone takes her.
She is a very nice person and i like her a lot i would take her class in a heart beat if i ever go back to school.
I LOVED HER WHEN I HAD HER! it was an easy class! i loved it. i had her several time when i didnt care about classes and i still did ok, except for once !! but it was my mistake... she is a good professor and a person. Maxwell, I will definately enjoy myself in HUNTER!
Took this class during the summer. Big Mistake Professor was ill prepared, changed our scheduled projects numerous times, and went missing in action without advising students. Had to beg for final grades at the end. (Yikes) Not what I expected or paid for!!!!
i had her in summer 1 and she was a train wreck - but i've heard she's like that all the time. unprepared, flakey, and toally unavailable. thanks for nothing.
By far the worst professor I've ever had.Taking her online this semester and she dissapears all the time. Never logs in,it's currently been over 3 weeks! Gives paper topics the day before, never replies to e-mails, voicemail is full! The whole class is beyond themselves. Stay far away from this one. There's something strange going on with her!
This professor is horrible! Currently taking her for Eng Comp I online and she's MIA! It's so bad that her secretary had to log on to print out her papers. It's Nov and she hasn't graded anything!! I will never take this professor again!
WORSE PROFESSOR I EVERY HAD. LEAVES YOU OUT THERE TO FEND FOR YOURSELF. YOU CALL OR E-MAIL HER AND SHE NEVER GETS BACK TO YOU. i STARTED CALLING HER IN SEPTEMBER AND I AM STILL WAITING FOR HER TO GET BACK TO ME. I FINALLY HAD TO WITHDRAW FROM HER CLASS BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNEW WHAT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE TURN IN OR WHAT WORK IS EXPECTED. STAY AWAY FROM HE
Very good teacher, and very easy class. If you cannot pass you didn't go to class.
More like, SHE didn't come to class. Worst professor ever! Inconsiderate, didn't even receive one grade the entire semeseter. Impossible to get in touch with and doens't care about her students.
Professor Maxwell will make you pass!!! Even if you don't want to pass..you will pass this class!!! All you do is have bangin class discussion and type a paper on it....How easy can you get??!!! I recommend her to any and everybody

Who ever wrote these things about Professor Maxwell are dead wrong because she's an easy professor and does care about her students needs and most of her classes are right next to her office and most of the time she's in it so if you guys couldn't get in contact with her it's because you were in the commons hanging out. Easy A great professor.
I had Prof Maxwell for an online class. She was very unprepared, unorganized, & unreachable. Her voicemail is always full, she was never in her office, and didnt answer her emails. She doesnt grade your papers on time or turn in grades on time. Her secretary ended up having to communicate to us for her. I do not recommend her.
this professor is very nice down to earth. do your work and she'll pass u. She also takes time to help u out when u don't understand something.
i thought that professor maxwell was awesome! she is always very helpful...and i thought she was great =]
She is a very nice teacher. I learned how to write papers. she gives alot of worked but you really learn. She does count your attendence. she hands back papers late, but she gives you a chance to correct them and hand them back in to get a higher grade on you paper. I got a B plus in her class. make sure you take notes to help you do your papers.
GOD BLESS YOU PROF. KEEP THE GOOD WORK UP. PLS TAKE HER CLASS AND YOU WILL NEVER REGRET IT. WHEN IT COMES TO TEACHING, SHE IS NO. 1
Best English professor.... i bet that most of all the bad comments here are of students that did not even come to class or are straight up lazy Great professor!!
She's helpful n make sure that u understand the basics
Great Woman!I had her my first semester, shes extremely helpful and informative: if you listen. Good class discussions and a slew of easy work. Just come to class, participate, and do the work she assigns (easy, not much.) Great personality and very sweet. If you want to learn, you will.
she is down to earth
awesome teacher, helped me gain my writing skills back. down to earth, laid back and cool.
Had Prof. Maxwell in my first semester. Great teacher & down to earth. Very friendly and helpful. Make sure you come to class and participate! She gives many chances to make up missed/late work.
I HAD PROF. MAXWELL FOR ENGLISH 089,SPRING 2010 AND I MUST SAY SHE IS THE BEST ENGLISH PROFESSOR AT UCC. SHE HAS A VERY GOOD AND AN EFFECTIVE STYLE OF TEACHING. I LEARNED SO MUCH MATERIAL FROM HER CLASS STARTING FROM ANALYZING, DISSECTING ARTICLES OR STORIES AND WRITING PAPERS. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMEND PROF.MAXWELL FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO LEARN.
Prof Maxwell, Was a treat! I would highly recommend taking her even if its on a Friday Night, I looked forward to go to her class she kept things real and allowed individuals to express themselves- Everyone should take Prof Maxwell at least once!
I had prof. Maxwell spring 2010 and she was awsome. I was hoping to get her this year again but I Couldnt. but if I could I would def take her class again... she helped u out alot. if u have to take a writting course she would be one of my choices
she is amazing, very easy going & really cares. she make sure you understand & if you dont she has no problem helping you out. i also had her for my ENG 088 class & i wish i could have her again next semester.
Beautiful professor inside and out :)Don't bring anything with ice or ice-cream to class; her hotness will melt it all away. Extremely fair and helpful. Challenging class, loved it.
Don't get me wrong Maxwell is a wonderful person but when i was in her class i felt she had too much on her plate. She hardly gave papers back on time i didnt get the chance to see my last paper or grade I was left in the dark. Maxwell is a great woman but she has too much going on juggling too many classes. i wish i had gotten my paper =/
Professor Maxwell is very helpful; I took her eng 101 and she was fabulous! I enjoyed coming to her class, and yes, she is very challenging but extreamly helpful you will learn a lot from her she is well informed LOVE HER I would recomend you take her class if you are interested in learning:-)
Proff. Maxwell was the best professor I ever had! She is so funny and I loved going to her class. I would deff. recommend her to everyone!
Amazing professor super nice and helpful I would take her again if I could. Great professor!!!!
OMG I wish I could take her over and over again! She makes it fun, easy, there's actually nothing negative you can say about her class. Maxwell is very funny & an awesome person! :)
For 101 you do not even need a textbook (for winter at least). Most open-minded professor I have met. Very Clear as to what she looks for in her papers. She allows the students to share their opinions and welcomes any topic. She is a must take professor.
Maxwell was honestly my fave teacher last semester. whenever there was a problem that i needed help with she was always there with welcoming arms. she never turned down helping others.
I loved having her as my professor she is fun and easy she doesn't give a lot of quizzes out which is really great she does give out assignments and essays tho but overall they r really really essay and fun I would totally have her forever and ever! She is really great she is also really really sweet and kind she is the warmest person ever!
Prof. Maxwell is OUTSTANDING without a doubt. Even tho she gives essays and papers to do they're all easy because she grades her students based on their efforts. There is NO OTHER ENG PROF like her. She is truely 1 of a kind. She is willing to help with any & everything. If she doesn't know it. She'll find some1 that does.She is literally there 4U.
Love Prof. Maxwell! She's definitely a kool teacher! Keeps things interesting and open minded! She grades very fairly and willing to help!
One of the best professors, here at UCC really helpful and enjoy helping her students out.
when I went into her class the first thing I said she is the one she is very helpful and care about her student the work is easy read and study you will pass very funny and out spoken I just start taken her this fall. all I can say is take her you will not regret it.
Prof Maxwell is awesome. I will definitely take her again next fall. she is really an amazing teacher. very helpful easy class as soon you do all the works. A+
I had Professor Maxwell for an online Eng102 class in the fall of 2013. Unfortunately this was the worst class I've had. She took too long to grade papers and then needed to push back our schedule and eventually had to cancel our final 10 page paper(no complaints there though lol) just days before it was due.
LOVE HER VERY HELPFUL AND FAIR!
One of the best English professors I ever had. She is awesome, keeps her students interested, and the work is not hard at all. Love her!
Pretty good English professor, the only bad thing I can say about her is she used racial undertones too often as subjects for papers.
I took Professor Maxwell in the winter session. I loved her and her class. We had 4 essays to do (one essay on each book). It was good, just a lot of reading, but doing the papers was not that bad at all. She gives you a chance to revise your paper for more points. Would recommend her for ENG 102. She's a very sweet lady and great teacher!
Great Professor. I had her during Summer Session 2, she stayed after class to help students that cared about their grades. However you have to stay on top of her, she is juggling a lot at one time. She preps you for the 4 essays you will have to do and gives very good notes. She does care about her students take her class seriously.
The worst professor ever! And always late!
Prof. Maxwell is the very best professor that I ever had. She is very knowledgeable within the field of the english language. I went from writing zero essays to seven pages in MLA format by the end of the semester. So if you want to gain some valuable skills in the english language this is the professor for you. Reading handouts,no book required.
OMG!!!! She is one of the best teachers at Union County College that you will ever experience. She gives great feedback and she is very knowledgeable. She was very helpful and always gave assistance when it was needed. There are a few readings and papers BUT I assure you, they will only make you better as a writer. She is very cool (MIGHT I ADD)!!!
Very clear dispensation of course. No nonsense type of person. Must do homework.
I Love Maxwell great professor!!
Very inspiring lady! She taught me writing techniques that I had no experience with before hand. She is funny and her class is very entertaining. She allows students to be themselves. She is not annoyed by electronic devices. Ms. Maxwell is very easy to relate to and let's you revise everything! Hand in your assignments on time.
She is a great professor learned a lot from her
Professor Maxwell is a great teacher and person. She takes the time to help you out and she is extremely fair. She is clear and straight to the point. Does give homework but with enough time to complete it. Very respectful. I would highly recommend her.
Loved her class... She was one of my top five for sure..
Prof. Maxwell is an amazing teacher and understanding human. She is very detailed and explains with the intent for you to understand. Yes she does take forever to grade but it's for her to help you understand your mistakes and how you can fix them. She does give homework but does not overload you with work.
MOST AMAZING BEST INTELLIGENT TEACHER I'VE HAD. IS ADORED BY EVERYONE
Professor Maxwell is one of the best professors I have had the pleasure of meeting. I had her in my previous English class. She has patience to explain what you need help in. She is clear cut and works with you. Extremely fair and helps you prepare for any quizzed or exams. If you don't pass, it's on you. HIGHLY RECOMMEND her.
THE BEST ONE EVER !!!
Professor Maxwell is probably one of the best Professor I meet so far. She's really cares for her students and funny. Her class was really easy and fun. It never felt like a drag to go to her class. She does take a bit to grade essays but its understandable.
Loved her and all she had to offer. Read the books and participate and i swear you'll pass with flying colors. Try not to get lazy with the work because it could bite you in the butt in the end.
The best!
The professor i've ever had in my life. Her class is extremely fun and very inspirational. Love her so much!
Professor Maxwell is a tough grader when it comes to her papers, but she also gives GREAT feedback by letting you know what and how you need to correct what you did wrong, she allows you time to re-submit and she provides the books in copy forms that you need for her class so you don't have to spend money!!! She is an AWESOME professor!!
she has such positive energy , she always polite and respectful time flies in her class she just makes it easy and fun to learn, she care more of what you learn and your success
Amazing professor! Makes the material interesting and encourages the sharing of opinions in class. If you need help with your work, she will be more than happy to help you. She's also very caring and understanding towards her students.
Does not constantly make you read, watching videos is important too, especially TEDTalks.
She is a very great professor and a very laid back professor. She provides all of the books in a PDF and she makes the class very interesting and fun for you. Also, we always have class discussions and get ready to take lots of notes and having to talk. Other than that, we have discussions essays and essays that are very easy to do.
Took her for eng102 of spring 2019. Hands down the BEST professor ever!!!! I wish I could take her for all my classes. You have to be extremely lazy to fail her classes because you have chances to resubmit papers and shes always willing to help. Such a genuine person, she treats everyone with respect and her class was enjoyable!
Great teacher.
I had a great semester. Even though class was remote live, Professor Joyce Maxwell made class very interested and made it a fun. I was so glad I chose you this semester. Keep up the good work. If anyone is taking English 102 I recommend you to take her.
Would definitely have her again. My course was online and she still managed to be so nice through emails and canvas messages. Delayed on grading assignments, but it only really bothered me because I like to have extra time to do redo my work to get a better grade if needed.
She is the nicest most sweetest teacher Ive ever had. Extremely understanding of any difficulties you might have and is so helpful when it comes to assignments that youre having trouble with. I recommend her to anyone that I can and would definitely retake her class.
does not reply to student's emails.
Professor Maxwell is a teacher who made me fall in love with English again. She is extremely flexible in helping students and would often go out of her way to make meetings with those who needed help. She is super laid back, understanding, and genuinely cares about her students and the subject(s) she is teaching. I would take her ever year.
Dr. Maxwell was great! She's a fair grader and as long as you participate, its nearly impossible to fail!
Very useful and very understanding and work around due dates with us as well. Very considerate and plenty of time to do the assignments which aren't difficult
Very nice and does fun lectures. Makes participating in class fun. Lenient on grading and deadlines. Overall great professor:
