This teacher is not very clear on what he wants, I had a very hard time undestanding what he wanted us to do, I was not the only one in class to think that way, he is hard on grading, if is not exactly how he wants , too bad! he can be funny! and sometimes goes off the subject with some silly jokes that nobody gets it!

His jokes were often lame, but made the class somewhat entertaining. It took about 4-5 hours of homework a week. A lot of students complained about him, but I had no problem receiving an "A". The textbook was necessary for assignments. He does expect you to read from it, but if you don't you'll be alright.

I love English, however, this class was a waste of time. I didn't learn anything. Most of it is based off the 1010 class, so if you took 1010 somewhere else, you automatically have a handicap. He spent most of every class period going over the schedule of the class and not actually teaching anything. He is very unclear about what he expects.

Doesn’t teach us anything just dumps a lot of homework on us. Class is just him reading the assignment. Pointless to even show up. Could have done this on my own, unnecessary for there to be a teacher the way he set up this class. Not reachable. Learned nothing from him.

Completely unprofessional "professor". Uses emojis to give feedback on rough drafts of essays while putting you down and thinks common knowledge is a joke despite the information and terminology being used in various professional articles and on government websites. Gives unclear/vague feedback resulting in little to no points being given for work.

Mr. Cole was the worst professor I've ever had. At the end of a 16-week semester, there was still just one module published on Canvas (week 1). Received an A even though only 5 of the 18 assignments were graded at the end of the semester. Does NOT respond to emails or student concerns. Do NOT take his class for any reason.

The class was very boring. There were a lot of assignments due each week and he expects a lot of work. As long as you follow the instructions for each assignment, it is easy to pass the class. I never paid attention in class but was still able to do the assignments. He gets very distracted while teaching and didn't grade anything until the end.

I do not recommend professor Cole for people who want to learn. He is a slow grader, docs points for attendance, and will go off about something not related to the course. He speak in monotone which makes it hard to follow along. He is also a slow grader.

He grades so slowly considering that there are so many heavy assignments that are due every week. The workload is so easy to fall behind on because it's just so many writing assignments. He also takes forever to respond to emails. He talks so monotone and half the time his lectures aren't even relevant, which makes mandatory attendance annoying.

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS! The grading is extremely slow. He extended the final day of class because he hadn't finished grading the last paper, forcing us all to submit our final drafts without the opportunity to revise them for our ePortfolios. As a result, I failed that assignment.

Professor Cole is caring and his class is super easy the only downside is that he speaks in a monotone voice which will bore you out of your mind. The class work is easy just super long and boring. Sometimes he doesn't full explain projects and what is expected of you which is super confusing. Not a horrible class just really confusing and boring.

His lectures are so boring. He talks in a monotone voice that makes you want to fall asleep. He will read over the assignment on canvas for the first 10 mins of class and then will talk about the most random things not even related to class. He's a tough grader. There are lots of reading and writing assignments due every week. Not good at grading.

He is incredibly boring and 90% of class time is spent talking about things that have nothing to do with anything relating to our homework, which wouldn't be as bad if he wasn't so boring. But even worse than that is he takes so long to grade homework. Like two weeks on average, so you never have any idea what your actual grade is.

He marked points off of my draft with no explanation. I messaged why and he proceeded to give an indirect answer. All while being insincere and incredibly condescending. This interaction was not a one off experience either. Not a professor I would recommend if you want to enjoy the course.
