Kim makes learning fun. (Doesn't that sounds cliche?) Seriously, she jokes around, but always has a point. The class is very informative for anyone who will have to write something sometime. A great teacher because she isn't too far off from our ages and can relate to us. Which makes her teaching work better with us.

Definitely entertaining. She does not give extra assignments that are not necessary. She uses real world applications so the information can be more easily understood. She is keeps the class engaged so her points are thoroughly demonstrated and she is very honest. Her feedback is helpful.

Professor Owens is a great professor. I was concerned at the beginning of the class, since she is more liberal, and I am more conservative. This concern was baseless as she is one of the most fair and reasonable professors I have met. She turned out to be a fantastic English teacher, the textbook was cheap($7), and I would highly recommend her.

Best professor at Mott hands down. Best sense of humor. Accessible outside of class. Very helpful when giving feedback. Clear rubrics on every assignment. The book is cheap.

No final if your class does shows up, participates, and works hard. Told us to return our textbooks if we already got them. Makes lectures entertaining, and only says what needs to be said. Answers all questions. If you turn papers in on time you can revise them after she has given feedback. PAY ATTENTION, quizzes are talked about during lectures

Professor Owens is a nice person and knows her stuff. But, she was bad at grading papers/assignments in a timely. It's the last week of the semester and my mid-term, second paper and a few other assignments from February/March are still not graded. Very frustrating for trying to gauge what your final grade will be with so many things not graded.

Lots of homework throughout the course with videos that seem to drag on. All examples that she uses are political based and should not be. I think it is very inappropriate of her to add how she feels politically into her course work. I will be sending a formal complaint to the school.

She provides weekly video lectures that help you understand what is expected of you each week. The course was well structered and all assignments built up to the final essay at the end of the semester.

Professor Owens makes ENG101 as easy and simple as possible, making this class a breeze. However with the quizzes, even getting 1/4 questions wrong will tank your grade. Professor Owens provides so many good resources for learning and makes it very easy to learn the material. Reading can sometimes get heavy but it really isn't a big deal.

Enjoyed the class until the last 2 weeks. Throughout the class, you receive a paper a week, and it's pretty simple. However, the final proposal will be your worst enemy. She graded it so harshly, gave no help. I got a 100% on the exam; however, just because of this paper, I no longer have a 4.0, and I'm finding a new 102 teacher.
