This class is EXTREMELY easy compared to the same English 111 class I took last semester. No grammar lessons. You're suppose to have the Little Seagull Handbook but I didn't and I did fine. There is 2 fairly simple essays throughout the semester and then a final argumentative research paper. All info you need is on her Blackboard page.

One of the best English teachers I have ever had. She makes English class interesting & easy. Her essay topics are mostly chosen by the students so you can write about something that interests you & she doesn't make you read much. She lets you out of class early sometimes & is really nice and understanding. Accepts late final work.

Professor Reynolds is awesome. I took her class for Eng 111 & 112 and got an A for both. She gives you 5 points extra credit if you use a tutoring service and there are 3 papers in total. I took the 9 weeks course and it was fine. I didn't buy the textbook so I don't think it's necessary. Otherwise, she is great and an easy grader.

I didnt have Ms Reynolds for a long time but for the short time that she was my professor, I liked her a lot! I even failed her class as I work full time & had undiagnosed ADHD so it was just impossible for me to juggle both. With time & effort you CAN pass. Her class was easy + thought provoking. I refuse to retake this class w/ another professor
