I took Dr. Smith for English Comp I. I really liked his class. He's an adjunct professor but if you see his name on the schedule for any English course, sign up quick! He's very knowledgable and is very helpful. I got an easy A.
This class is very easy if you pay attention, and do the assignments. If you fall behind, he will be lenient, and help you catch up. make sure to attend class.
It was easy
Very prompt.
He kept the class awake and focused. I liked how we could participate and have little class discussions so everyone could give an opinion.
He is an outgoing prof. caring, respectful and makes you work for your grade. If you put in the work, you will pass with a good grade A or B
Mr. Smith is an outstanding teacher. Very reasonable and understanding. You will absolutely love him. He is very inspirational. Take this class!
Dr. Ramone Smith is a amazing teacher; he works with us one on one and he explains all the work thoroughly to where the point we understand.
Mr. Smith is a very good Professor. He is strict and to the point but is very understanding as a Professor. His class is very interesting and he make you want to learn and do your homework even though it can be a lot.
Great instructor, clear instruction and very passionate towards students. Attendance mandatory. Gives extra credit. I would highly recommend this professor.
Professor Smith is an outstanding teacher, he makes learning fun and there is never a dull moment in his class, he's straight forward and understanding. Do your work, and pay attention, you will succeed in his class.
Dr. Ramone is "REAL" as they come "meaning straight forward". He is direct and fourth coming and leave no surprises. Attendance is key and participation is key. Now, you will have pop quizzes so, read exactly what he advises you to read and you will be okay. You make your own grade, he does not give you, your grade, easy A if inclined to learn.
I believe Dr. Smith is a fine teacher, but I see that the computer illiterate adult students hold him back from progressing the course at the pace he would like. Pretty much a "gimme" class. If you know how to write a basic essay, you'll be fine. A middle school student could pass without exertion.
Mr. Ramone Smith is a great professor who gets straight down to business and is really big on punctuality and attendance.
GREAT JOB
no wrong
h explains what he requires in a paper. he is good to give a good lecture and finds ways for the whole class to understand the topic. he's funny.
he is good to give lectures and he will wait until every one in the class understands the topic. he is funny and he cares for his student. he tells his students what should be required in his papers. so the students can have a heads up.
He is a solid teacher who knows what he is talking about. He keeps things interesting and gets us invested in the criteria that we are in.

this class has a fair amount of writing and studying but over all the class is pretty easy. the class was a great and I enjoyed it.
When I first came into his class I did not know what to expect of him. As the classes went by grew to love him. He is one of the best professor that I have taken.

The Professor assign you assignment and make you research on your own this way you can get a better understand of what you are doing.
This professor is very down to earth, while still able to maintain the professionalism of a collegiate school. Truly, I am glad to have a professor that makes learning something that many can enjoy and still grasp the materials and the degree of difficulty it takes to build skills for later on. # I highly recommend this professor to any student!!
Mr. Ramone is an amazing teacher who will help you in class, break it down to you and make sure you understand what is going on. He is truly dedicated to his students and teaches us to apply ourselves. Thanks!

He was serious about the work but also had a good and unique personality.
Prof. Smith is a great teacher. Such a great personality to have in front of you. There are good class discussions and we always learn something to carry on with you through life
Dr. Smith is a great teacher for my first college experience and I would like to take him again. He gives papers, but all professors do he has good discussion, will make you laugh. If you skip trust me you will have a mean problem with him.
His class is very easy yet difficult if you do not follow directions.
You have to listen to everything that is given to you in class or otherwise you won't get everything you need to pass.
Nice person
Mr. Smith is great teacher of his personality. He can easily relate to his class and gives good out of class feedback.
He is a good professor, very informative and intelligent and well informed of the world. Really enthusiastic and passionate about his work and profession. Really good and glad I got this class.

Mr Smith was a great professor.
He's a great Teacher he made English worth taking. I would take it again if I had to
Dr. Smith is a phenomenal professor. Even on a Saturday morning, he comes in ready to get started. I had a few family problems to happen, and he was very flexible. i still had to do my work, but he made accommodations.
My Professor was one of my best professors because he is a very understanding and genuine man
This was a wonderful learning experience this semester. He's absolutely a great professor to learn from. I would totally recommend other students to take his course. The course was fun along with the plus of enhancing my writing skills for the future. I just want to give a special thanks for making my writing experience enjoyable!!!!
The level of difficulty for this class is pretty much all on yourself, if you show up in class, listen, do the work, and participate then you will pass the class, but if you think that the pro. Smith will baby you for not showing, think again. He makes it clear that he will fail you if you miss 2 class periods,so it is crucial that you show up.
I really like the way my Professor teach. He gives a clear understanding on what he's expecting from us.
Professor Smith is the best person in the world. You can hear the passion for teaching in his voice, when he gives lectures or lifelong lessons. I wish I had the honor of having him as my Professor, every class, subject, and semester. And if he cares about my education, Im sure he would care just as much for the upcoming scholars or students.
Mr Smith is an excellent instructor this is my second time taking his class and although he is no walk in the park he is very understanding and patient with communication. I would recommend him!
Awesome teacher.

HE IS A GREAT TEACHER MOST DEFINITELY WILL TAKE HIM AGAIN
Interesting class
I was apprehensive at first and might i say intimidated by this class. I have to admit that he gave way more time than he had to on turning in assignments. He is there for you if you need him. Relaxed class.
HE IS AN AMAZING TEACHER
Dr. Smith is great instructor and very informative in any topic. You will remember anything he tells you, because his lectures and commentary start very intriguing class discussions.

Dr. Ramon Smith was by far the BEST professor Ive had this semester! Dr. Smith is straight to the point and lets ALL students know from the very first day of class what is expected from them and he also lays out the outcome of what happens if you dont follow his easy and simple to do instructions. I hate that the semester has ended, we love you
Great professor
Professor Smith gives good feedback and amazing lectures.
He was Great!!! One of the best!!!!!
Dr. Ramone is very caring and can be a difficult teacher; however, he can be helpful when having issues and very understanding.
He is a great teacher. He is honest and helpful.
Love this Professor, he seems tough but he's not! Hard on the outside, soft on the inside. Hilarious! Come to class and try your best, you'll be fine. I had anxiety over this course, because I haven't been in school in year, I chose the best professor. I would definitely recommend him.
He's a great professor just do his work.

Wonderful Professor,

Very respected instructor.
The semester was great! Thank you for being REAL!
Hell answer questions as long as you ask them.
one thing i can say, its challenging but he will help you every chance you need him
Prof. Smith gave me the confidence and knowledge I needed. I have a hard time with comprehending and he made it so easy. I love the way he uses real examples to help us get a better understanding. By far Prof. Smith it the best teacher and has a passion for teaching.
This is the one professor that brings out the best in you. I've enjoyed all the class lectures and I've learned a great deal. Yes! He is hard on us because HE BELIEVES IN US!! Any student who takes his class will leave with a huge smile and their head held high...
I have had the opportunity of taking Dr. Smith twice. If he was teaching I was enrolling. He doesnt require much but when he gives you an assignment he requires you to follow the instructions from top to bottom. He will work with you but do not come with the foolishness. He is hilarious and he requires class participation.
Professor Ramone Smith is a great teacher, and he's straight to the point. He explains the work so that it is understood. Professor Smith wants his students to be successful. Pay attention you will learn a lot
Dr. Smith was very helpful throughout the entire semester and was always willing to assist in every way possible. GREAT PROFESSOR!!!!
He is a great teacher who is committed to his students success.
Mr. Smith is very laid back. If you are present in class and you are on task all your assignments are turned in and communication wise is great. There is absolutely no reason why anyone can pass his class. I will take his class again in the Fall.
Dr. Smith set the tone of the class from Day 1 and made it clear that caring about your work and effort would go a long way, even if it wasn't perfectly executed. He sees the best in his students and pushes them to do their best in an encouraging way.
Phenomial professor
I enjoyed taking Dr. Smith's class. He told you what to he expected upfront. You can ask all the questions you want and you can contact him whenever you have questions. He is also very funny.
Great Professor! Gives you a chance to earn what you deserve.
It was interesting watching what he was able to pull out of my mind. Very much a person that makes you expand your thoughts .... loved that ��
Dr. Smith is a great teacher, he does what he can to help his students to succeed.
BEST PROFESSOR EVER!!
"Dr. Smith is an amazing professor. He truly cares for his students and their success. ONE of the BEST professors at STCC. He goes well beyond what he needs to so he can help his students. If you want to get a good FOUNDATION for writing I would take his class." "BEST PROFESSOR YOU WILL FIND AT SOUTHWEST TENNESSEE COMMUNITY COLLEGE!!!
The class challenges you and makes you think beyond. The professor(s) made you feel good about passing the course and was consistent and doing that. You will laugh often:) Although we were given reassurance, we were left in the dark about grades. Giving all students same midterm grade may not v been best idea. We have to see clearly where we are.
He can be very lenient if he feels like you're trying hard. He's a very funny and kind person, and he keeps in contact frequently with his students. 9/10 would recommend.
Professor Smith is an awesome instructor! When I began this class, I did not know what to expect because I was stressing over the notion of needing this class for graduation. However, I am so glad that I took this class because I have learned a great deal and would indeed take this class again!!! Professor Smith is the MAN!!!!
Prof. Smith helped me through out the entire semester. The man knows his work. Also, i would like to thank Andre Appleberry because when Prof. Smith hands were full, he had no problem with jumping in to help.
Mr. Smith is one of the most coolest teachers Ive ever had. He loves for everyone to participate on our team videos and give our opinion on assignments that we had.
I had Professor Smith on TEAMS since we were dealing with Covid-19. It was challenging for many of us. However, Professor Smith was very encouraging and supportive. He does require class participation. If you pretty much followed the syllabus you were going to pass. Professor Smith also gave opportunity for extra credit. I would take again!
Mr. Smith was a great teacher, although it was virtual he made the class interesting and fun to attend . He means what he say, but if you do the work you should get a good grade .
To Be Honest Im Not A Online Student, I Like To Get Hands On Learning As Well As Face To Face Teaching But Professor Smith Made It Smoother Than What I Really Expected. It Was Hard Work Trying To Maintain Each Class, With Tons Of Work From Each Teacher But He Made Sure He Was Available And If Not Right Then He Made Sure It Was Others To Help.
A nice professor that tries his best to make the students pass the class. Attendance is required, he provides extra credit, and there's an attendance/ participation grade.
He's a very tough professor in my opinion ,but the best to go for English . Mr.Smith actually wants to see his students succeed and reach their full potential he shows that by being hard on students and showing love .
This professor comes off as hard but as long as you do the work and participate in class then you will make an good grade in here.
This professor will not sugarcoat anything
This professors comes off as a hard person but he is just trying to make you better at what yall are doing.
get ready to learn how to write an essay because the way high school shows it is different than college.
He's a great professor. He gives great feedback to help improve your writing skills.
Mr. Smith is an amazing professor, although he may seem tough at first, he is understanding and wants to see all of his students succeed in school not only that but in life as well.
Overall, I enjoyed Mr. Smith class.
Great teacher and really pushes for success
Mr. Smith-Johnson is a really good teacher at the beginning you might it a bit difficult but it important to struggle in the beginning in order to learn and always ask question even thou they seem dumb but it still important. Try forming a connection with Mr. Smith-Johnson it can be as simple as an email it important.
This is the definition of tough love. Don't come in here on bs, because he'll smell it from a mile away. Love his style of grading and is naturally funny. Will forsure take what he taught me and use it to my advantage in college
Make sure to follow instructions, he is very clear and direct, so make sure to double check everything.
This professor is very forward when it comes to the work. Gives amazing lectures, and want's all students to participate in class. Be aware he doesn't always give second chances and will give the grade right on the spot. But in general this professor is good for students getting a good field on what college is like.
I had a great experience with my reading professor's. He gets right to the point and gets you prepared for real college.
This professor can be funny when he wants to but he always reminds students to do and submit there work on time and there is a certain way he wants his paper
what I want yall to know about ramone smith is that u cant miss not one assignment in his class and make sure u are prepared. He tough on us make sure we all on points he a very good English teacher I will want him to be my English teacher again.
He was one of the best professor I ever had. He put me on the right path to be a better writer and reader.
This professor is great at teaching and giving a student an understanding of an materials that he teaches. Overall a great teacher
Make sure to complete classwork and homework grades. If the formatting of your paper is incorrect, you will receive a zero. The professor is very passive aggressive when it comes towards class participation but mainly focuses on the students understating of being detailed oriented when writing essays. The professor uses derogatory language.
Professor Smith is tough but fair. Stay on top of assignments and don't skip class. Using Unstuck AI alongside the textbook helped me ace the course.
