Cool Prof. Interesting & funny.
Great professor. He makes the class interested with good examples and discussions. His syllabus is super-clear and useful. Plus he is hot...
This is my first time in college, so believe me when I say TAKE THIS CLASS. I was amazed by how easy he made the class. 4 papers, any subject. This guy has jokes and wit for days!!! He came off a little awkward, but hey we warmed up to it. He loves his students and wants the best for everyone. No midterm & a sentence correction final. DO IT! lol
He is the best English teacher you could possibly take super easy, four essays the whole semester and the final are sentence corrections. He is funny and really cares about the students, Definitely take him if you can!!!!
Great professor! Definitely taking him for 1102!
He's a great professor. I always hated english and writing but he made it a very enjoyable experience. He's a very helpful and makes himself available for his student. Just follow the format for his essays and you'll get at least an A/B . I will be taking him for 1102
Really passionate about his job. Funny, and he is very helpful. He is strict about essay structure and citation rules, but when grading the essays, he is very lenient, and if an essay is incomplete, he'll let you make it up. The homework is very helpful. If you do the work, you'll succeed in his class.
Dr. Bennett makes class enjoyable. He is serious about learning the rules of writing, but wants you to pass and will help in doing so. Personally, I did not learn much from the course, but he definitely was beneficial to the students who were not naturals/not initially interested in language/grammar.
Very interesting and intelligent prof. Essays are about dif topics, film, music, govmt, biol,etc. He has good videos to make students think and talk about essay topics. He wants a definite essay format, but will let you revise if you don't do it right. Great prof & great class
He is very understanding, helpful, lenient, and humorous. He is very organized and teaches the material extremely well. there are 4 essays and 1 final on sentence structure. He gives answers to homework, so if you attend class, you can copy the homework from him.
EASY! 4 short papers and he gives you TONS of examples, he is not big on grammar just wants you to have a good paper, hw is easy not too much work. this class was a breeze and he was cool. lectures were helpful and interesting. take him!
He is a great professor , 4 papers all semester. Great personality, funny, soft spoken but still an overall great guy. He understands if you have an issue. Just keep communication with him and you wont fail. Loved his class his teaching was clear.It was always a joy to go to his class.Will be taking him for 1102!!
Couldn't ask for a better Professor. You will be happy you chose Dr. B.
OMG!! Take him do not hesitate.. he was a little weird at first. but he is such an understanding person. TAKE HIM! there might seem to be a lot of work but you have a long time to do it. just TAKE HIM! please.
Great teacher! I loved taking his class : )
He is amazing, flexible, and willing to answer any questions at anytime to the best of his ability. He's friendly, and a pretty funny. MUST TAKE!
Dr. Bennett is one of the best professors in Broward College; He is very willing to share his knowledge with those who want to expand their own. He is very flexible as long as you put in the effort in what you turn in. His classes fill up very fast so get him if you have the opportunity.
He is the best teacher ever. He has a great persanility. He explains a lot and he guide you thru each essay.
He is really nice and funny. He usually does all of the homework with us in class. Very helpful when we need some clarification on something and his class isn't boring at all. He's funny and has interesting stories.
Dr. Bennett is a great teacher. He cares about his students and is lenient on his students and their work. He does most of the HW with you in class and his class, as long as you do all the HW and put effort into your essay, will be easy to pass. I loved this class! He cares for his students and uplifts them, all while making you laugh! :)
TEACHER OF THE YEAR IF YOU ASK ME. LOVED HIS CLASS. VERY FUNNY TEACHER WHICH MAKES YOU WANT TO ATTEND CLASS. ESSAYS(TOTAL OF : 4) ARE 75% OF YOUR GRADE IF YOU DO GOOD ON 4 ESSAYS THEN YOU WILL DO GOOD IN THE CLASS.
AWESOME PROFESSOR!!! 4 ESSAYS AND A SET OF HOMEWORK DUE WHEN EACH ESSAY IS, WHICH MOST OF THE HOMEWORK IS DONE IN CLASS!ITS AN EASY CLASS BUT YOU HAVE TO PUT EFFORT IN YOUR ESSAYS BECAUSE THEY ARE WORTH 75% OF THE GRADE. JUST FOLLOW HIS FORMAT AND YOU'LL DO FINE. THE FINAL IS A BREEZE!! DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS PROFESSOR, I'M TAKING HIM FOR 1102!!
By far the greatest professor so far at central campus. He is super easy (that doesn't mean you can get away with anything)- you can turn assignments in late and he will still accept them. All of the essays (4) were on real life things that you can relate to. Definitely recommend him!
Dr. Bennett is one of the best professors I've had. He goes beyond the call of duty to ensure that each student succeed. I've learned so much from this professor. I will not agree that the class is a walk over, but Dr. Bennett equips us to master it. Once you are dedicated, it's an easy A.
Good Teacher. Easy A.
Dr. Bennett is one of the best teachers i have ever came across. He knows what he is doing and i am happy i took his class. GREAT JOB Dr Bennett i learned a lot. It was hard work, but worth it. I recommend his class take him everyone. Best of the Best!!
GREAT PROFESSOR, DO YOUR ESSAY AND YOU WILL GET AN A. HE EVEN TAKES LATE ESSAY'S FOR FULL CREDIT. HE DOES MOST OF THE HW IN CLASS AND HE IS VERY HELPFUL.
Dr. Bennett is an awesome teacher, and I highly recommend him. He will provide you with many ways to pass his class. If you fail, you didn't try. He is extremely nice, but will enforce rules, especially if someone is disrupting other students. He does a lot of homework assignments in class which is very helpful if you work and have kids. ??
I don't have a lot to say about Professor Bennett other than he is the best English teacher I have ever encountered. Not only is he a great professor, but he understands that his class is not our only priority. Only 4 rather easy essays and you have your grade. Amazing professor. Take him, do your work RIGHT, and you'll get an A.
HE MAKES ENGLISH SUPER FUN. HE'S THERE FOR YOU AND IF YOU ARE HAVING A HARD TIME WITH ANYTHING HE WILL TAKE THE TIME OUT TO EXPLAIN WHATEVER IT IS. I WILL DEFF BE TAKING HIM FOR ENC 1102. AMAZINGGGG XOXO- D
Awesometacular.
Amazing teacher! The homework is done in class together. Highly recommended teacher!
Hilarious, makes class a great environment, I took him tuesday nights and he never let us go late, usually 15 min early or so. Definetly taking him for eng comp ii, hes a good professor, really explains things well. I didnt miss a class so I knew what was going on, I couldnt imagine if I missed class, Id be lost.
Great prof. Smart with interesting discussions and videos. No textbk but online reading. I learned a lot. Dr. Bennett wants students to think and research abou subjects carefully and make their own minds up about them. Essays are about your opinions on dif topics like movies, music, current events and government, or medical topics. Best prof.
Essays are lengthy but you choose your own topic within specified criteria. I.e. movies, music, argument about govt, argument about something bio medical. I like his class vecause he is very detailed regarding his specifications he expects on his essays. He is clear, most homework is done in class so that you are assured of what he is looking for.
4 Essays, 1500 words each, Final is also an essay. He is very specific when explaining his expectations for a paper. All the homework assigned is to improve your writing skills and criteria use. Most of it is done in class, as a lesson so you understand the writing techniques precisely. Very good professor, had him for 101 and I def recommend him!
Easy A. Best prof. ever.
Awesome teacher !!!! The lectures might be boring at times but he's so sweet and able to help at any times! I loved him!
Dr. Bennett is excellent. Smart and interesting. A lot of video to add to class discussions. You pick your own topics for essays, so you get to write about what interests you most in areas of film, music, government/current events, and biology/science/medicine. This was the best class I took at BC
Great Prof !
Dr Bennett is cool and interesting class with some youtube videos. A lot of assignments but a lot are done in class or group. 4 essays but the homework helps the writing process and gives you ideas for essay outline. Essays are long but Dr Bennett is clear, so if you do the work and spend time thinking planning your essay you will do fine.
Best english class I have ever taken. He makes it so interesting so you don't dread having to write long papers.
Dr. Bennett is the professor I have ever had!! He is super funny. Going to class is not a chore, it is actually exciting!! There are 4 papers you have to write 1500 words each in MLA format. He is extremely fair if you make an effort! I will definitely take Dr. Bennett for ENC1102
This professor is beyond helpful. I attended his class after being out of high school for years. I graduated the class with an A! He's the best professor I have yet to see. Keep up the good work Mr. Bennett, other professors could learn from you.
Best professor! Very helpful, easy, and gives a lot of extra credit! You will need to the book to do some parts of the homework. His lectures are entertaining and worthwhile. I wish I took his ENC1101 class as well. I highly recommend!
Fantastic!
Best Professor ever!!!! Very helpful, very good feedback, lots of extra credit. I enjoyed writing 4 papers and having an easy final exam. Book is needed, fun lectures, little to no homework, funny videos in class highly recommend him. I wish more professors were like him.
A blessing for any college student.
Funny professor, even though my class was three hours it wasn't boring you do learn and of course there are papers to write they aren't to difficult.
Such an awesome professor who knows what he's doing. You turn in all of your assignments at once, and the homework is super easy. Just do good on your essays and that's what really matters. He's very willing to help with anything.
Of all the enc1101 classes out there, dr. Bennett is the best. He's super easy and does most of the homework in class, actually all we do is hw in class. He gives you 4 essays to write, but there all pretty easy, and that's coming from a high school dual enrollment kid who has a C in English right now:/ lol. Also lets you leave early sometimes.
Dr. Bennett is a great teacher! The class has lots of work and essays but he is super clear. Also he goes over most of the homework in class which helps you write your essays. He is strict about mla formatting so you have to follow the rules but he put a guide on d2l so if you use the guide, you can do it right. I also like the videos he uses
Best Professor I have had. Sylabus is long but he has everything in it, so you know exactly what to do for a good grade. He answers all your questions, even by email and he gives a lot of extra credit on assignments! I tried to get in to his 1102 class as well, but it was already full. So I am keeping my fingers crossed I can get in later
If you feel your writing skills suck, you will come out of that class writing and loving English and Grammar. He is the best English Professor at BC.
Dr Bennett's class had a lot of intersting topics. Like he said, writing, language &critcal thinking are keys to understanding the world. He uses the Internet and videos to focus on topics and practice researching everything. The best and most useful class I have had at BC. Students r lucky if they get in his class!
Excellent professor. Intelligent. Very clear. Understands that we have responsibilities outside of class. There is a lot of assignments and 4 long essays but the course is very manageable and I learned a lot about how to set up my essays
I love Dr Bennet's class. He is nice and clear and funny. Essays take a while to write so you have to pay attention to the format and do mla correctly. Class isn't overly hard or overly easy, just right!
Mr. Bennett's class is really good. He explains everything. And he gives you extra chances to succeed if your essay is all messed up. Some kids are immature and try to disrupt class but he keeps everything on track and he's very fair. I like that he goes over all the homework to get you ready for each of the essays. Plus the Final Exam is short!
He is a great prof who explains lessons well and give extra credit too. There is a lot of homework but it helps to understand how to write the papers. You can see he works really hard to make sure a good class. He likes your papers to be logical plus have good grammar but he lets you have your own ideas on everythin. I learned a lot in his classes
My favorite class! I enjoyed going to Professor Bennett's class. The syllabus covers everything you need to know so you are always caught up. Go to class and get the assignments done during class and it's a breeze. He is always willing to help improve your grade if you are willing to put forth slight effort.
He is a great professor because he is flexible and the class is interesting. Also a LOT of xtra credit on homework sets is possible. There are very diiferent kinds of topics such as movie, album, biological, aNd government. It is important to go to class since he talks about all the topics and assignments so then most of the work is for the essays
My favorite professor!
Professor Bennett is the best!!! I took 1101 whole semester and is a very easy class. 4 essays and homework sets. Do the homework in class and you will be good to go. He offers to help you or give more time for the essays. Take him!!!!
so easy!! does all the homework in class, and if you need extra time for the essays (even though he gives you four weeks) he's very flexible.
This was my first class at BC, I was very happy to have such a good class with a great teacher. I didn't expect to have such the wide range of topics in English class, like film or biological, but I was glad because they were interestng and useful for my major which is Nursing. The class is focus on critical thinking to give your opinions in essays
This teacher was amazing, though sometimes can be boring. done this class for dual enrollment for my high school, and felt that I was terrible at writing. follow along with his homework and it makes it much easier. LOOK NO MORE AND TAKE THIS CLASS. there were 4 essays, but simple and easy if following rubric. show up in class better grade
Professor Bennett is extremely kind and understanding. This isn't a blow off class, but most assignments are done in class, so be sure to attend. There are 4 essays, he lets you pick the topic, and even offers extra guidance, if you need it. He is very good at responding to emails. I would definitely recommend this class, amazing professor.
He is the best teacher ever . Take him .
Dr. Bennett is a great professor. He is very understanding. If you pay attention and participant you will get a good grade. Extra credit is given to help boost your grade.
Professor Bennett makes his best effort to make all classes interesting, and thought provoking.4 essays, and assignments in between. Interesting and well varied topics in all of his assignments. He even put me on to the song Ever so clear by Bush wick Bill while doing the Music assignments. That song high key goes hard. Extremely understanding A+
This is the best college class I have taken. Dr. Bennett has us think about dif topics which are very interesting, like biomedical,movies, govmt and music. He is very open to diff opinions and just wants you to have a thorough paper which is logical structure and detailed. Great class. Class gets real involved in discussions and presentations
Dr. Bennett taught me a lot about writing essays. The Class writes a lot of essay types, like research, arguments,comparison. There are interesting homeworx based on video and also an online lab grammar review that all the 1101 classes use. I got my lab done way early so it was low-stress . Dt. Bennett is super organized + interesting + funny!
He's the Best! A lot of work but it pays off cause you get better and get chances for a better grade
He's so easy. I took him for 1101 and 1102... His papers are easy, he grades them based off just making sure you follow his rubric. He's a bit boring in class sometimes, but the topics discussed are interesting and thoughtprovoking. TAKE HIM. EASY A. Homework is easy, and gives TONS of extra credit. TAKE HIM.
Dr. Bennett is a great professor!! I took him for ENC1101, he gives great feedback. His work is easy. Take him!
Amazing professor! Took him for ENC 1101 and 1102. He is pretty easy and allows you to pick your topic for his essays. He gives a lot of extra credit which is very helpful and does a lot of the assignments in class. He can get a little boring but it really helps to go to class so you can get a better understanding of what he wants for the essays
My favorite prof ever! He really goes out on a limb to help students. Great class and interestin
There is a lot of little assignments to do but if you attend the class he discusses it and gives you the answers. No major tests except final (essay). I wrote all 4 required essays but didnt complete 75% of the assignments and I passed with an A. No textbook or reading required. Fun discussion and very interactive. Lots of participation points!!!!!
Best English teacher i ever had. All of the assignments he requires are laid out in the syllabus. If you put fourth the effort you will pass.
Professor Bennett is the most caring, respectable teacher I've had. His lectures are entertaining and he is very understanding. As long as you put in effort and do the homework, there is no reason why you shouldn't pass with an A. Definitely recommend taking his class. You won't regret it.
HES THE BEST PROFESSOR I JUST TOOK HIM 4 essays, one due at the end of each month along with homework assignments that are done in class super easy just don't procrastinate !!!!! He really cares about his students his final 20 question 5% of your total grade not hard at all just do your work and you will pass.
Best and most interesting class i have taken so far. Class discusses ideas and assignments so it is a good use of class time plus almost everyone talks so there are different points of view. Dr Bennet respects everyones ideas. A lot of videos are the basis of assignments with a few textbook essays to read. Excellent class and Professor
best class ever. such a great professor. easiest class you can take, literally show up and theres no way you wont do well. only kids who dropped his class or didnt do well were students who literally didnt do anything. strongly recommend
I'm an international student, and I was so scared when I start my classes. It turned out that Dr. Bennet is an amazing teacher, and very careful with all students. You'll have extra points every time that you participate in class. There are many assignments, but most of them are done in class with his help. It makes easy for each essay. He is great
Excellent Professor. Lots of good discussions and videos help to plan papers and show examples of types to write. Sylabus is long but super clear and helpful. Dr Bennett knows a lot about different topics so helps to plan your paper if u need help. Class writes about film, bio- medical. goverment and music. Great Class!!
Professor Bennet is, without a doubt, one of the best teachers ever! He is extremely caring and understanding of every single one of his students. His lectures are very interesting!You write 4 essays overall (5 pages each) but he gives you plenty of time & they are open-subject :) I took him for 1101 & 1102 , it was the best decision ever! TAKE HIM
Dr. Bennett is a great professor. He is very detailed about what he wants from his students. His lectures are very interesting and relatable to almost everyone. He genuinely cares about everyones thoughts and opinions on topics discussed in class. I guarantee you will enjoy the time spent in his class just as much as I did. HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!
Just finished ENC1102 summer session with Dr. Bennett and as usual it was great! I took him for ENC1101 and that was a breeze. Taking him during the summer was only tricky because the 4 essays were due every week. Regardless, still an amazing professor and awesome class. The final was a in-class essay. TAKE HIM!
I liked the videos and discussions Kept class always interestng Very understandng about students schedules at work Sylabus is totallyclear so u know what to do My fav prof ever!
T H E B E S T!!! Very easy class. Easy as in easy work but lots of work. there are 4 main essays and you turn in assignments with each essay. most assignments are done in class with him. gives break between long classes and also lets us out early. had him for 6:30-9 and i do not regret it!! WILL be taking him for ENC1102.
BC is fortunate to have this man in their repertoire! Dr. Bennett's teachings have impacted my life more than anyone in recent memory. He has a unique, intellectually complex, sense of humor that sneaks up behind and bites you before even realizing why youre laughing. If you seek meaningful communicative enlightenment look no further.
Very easy and rewarding
This was my 3rd and final time taking this course. Thought it would be hard but it was BEYOND SUPER EASY! Just do the work and essays are simple you pick any Topic you want. And you get extra credit with anything you do like give feedback or read or having good ideas on the subject. Taking him for enc 1102. BEST EASY GOING TEACHER EVER!
Good professor . A lot of homework but he goes over most of it in class and it helps with essay types. He likes people to participate and you get extra credit. He does not like it if students are immature and disrupt the class by private talking. Essays are open topic. I like the way he teaches. He's funny and some hw is based on videos
OMG the best English professor you can take at BC. I ended with a 99 overall in his class. Very easy work. Lots of extra credit. You get extra credit for participating, reading, detailed work and even showing up to class when you weren't suppose to lol. 4 essays open topic, a few textbook assignments (very easy), he does assignments in class 2 help
Very kind professor and will do whatever it takes to help you! A little hard if English is your second language, but this professor will help and will give you learning tools! 4 papers due plus online homework--a lot of it! It's not a very hard course, but the homework is very time consuming. Be careful if you work full time and take other classes.
Really the Best Profesor! Current events and different topix. Class discusses alot of intersting ideas. 4 long essays but Prof is very open to students ideas + lots of xtra credt points for higher grade. Highly Recomended!
Great Professor. Super organized and super clear. he makes an interesting class for the students. I Like the videos and extra credit!
Best professor I've ever had, hands down. Very understanding, flexible, and caring. I really didn't think I would pass this class, as I struggle so much with writing, but professor Bennet really just wants to help in any way he can.
Dr. Bennett is amazing! I took him for enc 1101 &1102 and it was a breeze. He is very clear for what he is looking for in his essays and gives TONS of extra credit! 4 essays, you get to pick the topics, you also do most of the HW in class, and he is pretty funny as well. Take his class you will not regret it!!
I had this teacher as my first ever college class and I dont regret it. He is super nice and cares about whether or not you pass. He does half of the homework assignments in class, and always lets you out early. He only makes you 4 essays and give good feedback, also gives lots of extra credit
Smartest Prof I had so far bcause he knows about so many different topix. He helps give ideas for the biomedical essay or gov essay or film or whatever. Class has great discussions + good use of video assignmts
I chose dr. Bennett because of his high ratings and plus my friends took him before and said he is a great teacher and very fair and clear. It is true because his guide in the syllabus is crystal clear Plus he goes over the forms for the papers and plus a lot of the assignments help you write the papers. Great teacher and makes a great class
OMG best prof ever! Super clear. super nice. super interesting class. He helped me to make my essays better plus he was understanding about late work after my accident. I like that we got to pick our topix for the essays and assignments. Take him if u can get in
Dr. Bennet's class was very good. He had a lot of assignments, but he did most of them with the class as a group so you could discuss about the topics and the essay types. He also gave a lot of extra credit for participation so everybody liked to discuss things so there were many different opinions which I liked, cause that helped with the essays
This professor, is amazing, I had problems with being added into the class, and again with d2l, he was very understanding and allowed me to get an incomplete to be able to turn in all my assignments properly and be given a fair chance at getting an A. Participate in class, he likes when you voice your opinion and gives you extra point, which add up
BEST ENC PROFESSOR HANDS DOWN!!! If you do not take him you're absolutely insane! I'm the worst at English, the worst at papers... He helps you, he understands, he cares. Took him for summer so the class was a bit stressful with over 20 assignments due every week along with a paper every week HOWEVER still the best, gives extra time! TAKE HIM NOW!
Dr. Bennett is the best professor I've had in all 4 years of college! He is so nice and caring and really loves what he teaches. The lectures can be long but he makes them pass quickly! There's a lot of assignments but he gives great feedback. He is genuinely such an amazing person, consider yourself lucky if you get the chance to take his class!
Heavy loaded class, but if you do the work you'll be fine! Nice guy but the class itself can be a little stressful
The best teacher ive ever taken! There are homework that are lengthy but he gives out so much extra credit! Homework assignments are easy and you can redo essays, hes super understanding and gives great advice for assignments. Also funny and entertaining and homework is done in class.
Pf. Bennett was amazing. He is 100% dedicated & passionate about his job & his students. He goes above and beyond to help them receiving a good grade. There is incontestably a lot of homework but he makes it interesting & fun with various subjects. He is very (too) kind & very patient. Do the work & you will have a good grade.
hands down the best professor ever. He genuinely cares about his students and wants them to succeed. Gives out a ton of extra credit to make sure you can go up a letter grade if necessary. Awesome guy, highly recommend
Professor Bennett was my favorite professor in the Fall. He is extremely kind and genuinely cares about his students. There is a lot of work but they are not hard assignments and you do most of them in class. There are four essays and you can redo them if necessary. If you do not take him you are missing out!
I took at all the EAP classes at BC, and I have never learned so much. Professor Bennet is very knowledgeable, he explains very well the material and provides lots of extra points. I would 100% taken him again!
Great professor with superclear sylabus, superdetail too. it is long like a textbook with sample essays but it is free! So he saves us a lot of $$. Lecutures are good and we study the paper forms online and talk about them and sometimes watch videos about our formats. if there are questions we can ask or email. He cares. Great prof!
GREAT Professor if you dont take him theres something wrong with you. Best teacher at Broward hands down!!!!
Professor Bennett is such a great soul, i enjoy him as my professor
Take him ! Professor Bennett is amazing and really takes time to help his students. There are 4 essays and each essay comes with a set of assignments which are all super easy plus he gives a lot of time to complete them.
BEST TEACHER I HAVE EVER TAKEN. -Fabrizio
This professor is by far, the best I have ever witnessed in college. Please do the world a favor and take this caring, respected, and amazing professor. I take a passion for English, this professor will open opportunities for you to go beyond succeeding. This professor is absolutely extremely professional and grades essays with amazing feedback.
He was so great and genuinely just wants everyone to pass. He is looking out for his students and although his classes are very long he just goes over his homework for the essays. Would definitely take him again and k recommend him for everyone doing English
It's a writing class so expect to write essays. BUT, he gives you EVERYTHING you need - everything in his syllabus, from examples to outlines, etc. You can tell he has a passion for the subject and it shows. He gives extra credit for participation. As long as you don't procrastinate, you will easily get an A. He will help you if you ask.
Professor Bennett is excellent. I took him for ENC1101 in person and ENC1102 online. He assigns four papers throughout the course, which each requires 1400-1500 words minimum. He also gives breaks in class and ends class early. Don't procrastinate, and it should be an easy A. Take his class.
Great guy. Gives lots of help and explanations. Lots and lots of work. No joke lots of things but he gives u time to. Very understanding. Will give u extra time if u need it. Lots of extra credit.
Great teacher, good grading system just write the 4 papers and you are golden
He is a great teacher very understanding and he was an awesome teacher I 10/10 recommend him for English 1&2
Gave so much work this was 2016 so much unnecessary work
Great professor, Really knows about writing and he teaches it well to make a process system for a good essay. The homework builds the essays and there are a lot of useful guides in his syllabus. He likes u to partipate a lot and that makes class interesting
Best Prof ever, because we write about different topics that relate to our interests,He has a lot of sample essays that he gives us for examples, and also uses a lot of videos, which make the class very interesting because people have different opinions.He has a system for writing essays that works great if u do the assignments. Highly recommended!
Dr. Bennett is Fantastic! He made class interesting & very doable even though there was a lot of reading (It's a Lit class after all.) There are four homework sets and a final but you have tons of time to finish everything. He has videos for the plays, so you watch them for real. Also videos for some stories and poems. He gives extra credit too!
4 papers of 1500 words each with extra homework with each paper. And the final is a 500-700 words paper with a specific topic. His syllabus is probably the most detail and extensive one that I ever seen and is simple to understand. I would definitely recommend him to anyone.
Professor Bennett was by far the best professor I have ever had. Truly such a pleasure to interact with and is very fair but challenging at the same time with his grading and criteria. There is no way you will find a better professor and I wish he taught every subject. I've never been a good student but professor bennett made me want to be.
W teacher W learning W class. TAKE THIS PROFESSOR IF YOU WANT A FREE A, BRO IS SENSATIONAL. -keep calm brehs
Hes nice. I recommend taking the class online because he reads everything off of the PDF, so stay home. There are 5 papers to write with a minimum of 1500 words. You get extra credit just by coming to class. You have ample time to work on the papers but for me, it was a lot. The final exam was alright consisting of 600 words minimum. No textbook.
Dr. Bennett is XLNT! He teaches u the fullstep essay process to write an outline first then essays are easy to write.He uses lots of videos in class to teach thinking about essay types + some videos are funny and interesting like about a pet puma or jetpaks or shoukd we get rid of pennies? Every essay has a superclear rubic.Fabulous Professor!!!
I recommend Dr. Bennett to anyone needing to take ENC1102. He gives good feedback on papers and allows you to correct your paper for a better grade. The class consists of 4 papers, homework assignments and a final paper. It's a English class prepared to write. But it is not a hard class just do the work.
There's only 4 papers w/ assignments sets (2 informational, 2 argumentative) + the final essay. Everything is provided in the syllabus and you work on the assignments at ur own pace. Lots of extra credit. If you do really well on the assignments he'll give extra points (I got 150% on a set)
Mr. Raphael is one of the best professors I've ever had since I've been to BC. He is really passionate about writing and wants to inspire other students to write about what their passionate about and just shoot for it. Would recommend him to anyone needing to get a good grade!
Dr.Bennett is a phenomenal professor, who really cares about his students, and gives hope for the best possible outcome on a student's journey. He gives detailed feedback and allows the student to go back and fix the work. He wrote his own textbook, and the work coincides with the essays, giving you lots of time to manage on your own.
Dr.Bennett is quite flexible as a teacher he will work with you and gives feed back to help you get the best possible grade
Super sweet and caring professor. Class consists of 4 essays, 4 assignment sets, and final exam essay. Everything is clearly outlined and very easy to follow. He gives you 4 example essays for each prompt and gives answers to assignments in class. It's very easy to get an A because he gives sooo much EC, I got a 170 on an assignment. Take him!!!!!!
Professor Bennett was an amazing professor for online class. At first, his material look confusing, but once you get the hang of it, you notice it's not bad. There's 4 essays with complimentary assignments which help you create said essay. He gives a lot of extra credit, and even though there is a lot of work, that's expected from an English class.
Everything was clearly explained and he gave a lot of extra credit helping the overall grade.
One of the best prof ever... Take him''.
This class was so much easier than AP English Composition. After four months in this class, I learned way more than I learned in one year of AP English Composition. The work is very easy and helps set up the essays we have to write. It is very easy to earn lots of extra credit on the assignments. This class is highly recommended.
Dr. Bennett is a kind instructor who swiftly responds to emails and consistently provides feedback on all tasks, including the extra credit. I had to acclimate myself to completing all the assignments, extra credit, and essays on a single word document. Very easy going.
Professor Raphael Bennett is truly one of the best professors I have ever taken. He gives many opportunities for extra credit, his grading is straightforward, he replies to emails quickly, very understanding if you have to submit an assignment late or miss a class. Overall would take again :)
Redundant information within a 1 word document that includes the materials and assignments for the class. Anxiety kicked in just trying to understand the 124 page word document. He provides a video and willing to meet to review but if clear content was provided neither would be necessary. He's aware of how overwhelming it is but okay with content.
Excellent Professor!
Very Good Professor, with a process for essays step by step. This also helped me later since a lot of papers in my university classes were long and some kids didn't know how, but i used the steps from Dr. Bennett's class and they work great! Also topics in Bennetts class were interesting!
He is the BEST! I took fully online so didnt even meet him but I love him! he was sooo helpful! He answered my emails within 10 minutes, and helped me choose essay topics and even found me research for the essay! Everything is super clear and detailed I hate English but genuinely enjoyed his work! And grades fair! Taking him again! Best prof
Absolute PHENOMENAL professor! Dr. Bennett is truly caring and wants to help students succeed. Willing to help anytime with any questions or concerns. Replies to emails quickly and gives awesome feedback on essays. His class is informative and easy to learn if you read the guides/material he has written! Overall, 10/10 professor! Take him!!!
There are four papers and an average of twenty assignment sets for each paper. The assignment sets are a lot of work and require time and dedication, but they build your papers. Dr. Bennett is a wonderful and kind professor who teaches his subjects in a manner where you understand the materials. He wants to see his students succeed.
At first I was intimidated by how the class was set up, however with time and getting use the class, it was actually very interesting and fun, there are 4 essays and 1 final, with those 4 essays theres maximum 20 easy assignments to do, the professor replies to emails on time and gives good help and feedback.
There were assignments due once a month, and while they were long, it was extremely easy and he was very fair when grading the essay, as well his expectations were made very clear. Definitely take him!!
This has been my best experience. I didn't submit the first assignment and I still passed the class. The amount of time he gives to submit late work is reasonable and he is very understanding. He answers emails really fast and he also grades faster than other teachers I've experienced. I highly recommend this teacher.
Best professor I've had at BC. Took ENC1101 and ENC1102. Would take LIT2000 with him if BC put him on the course list. Gives great feedback, ends class early, gives a 30 minute break, always there to help, gives extensions, very kind and wants the student to succeed. I'll miss having his class this semester, but take his class he's AWESOME.
Dr. Bennett runs an engaging class with clear expectations. The workload is manageable, and he provides helpful feedback to improve your writing. Unstuck AI was a game-changer for me - it made essay prepping a breeze. Highly recommend this class!
4 essays, 1 final. You get basically a month to finish each respective essay. Each essay comes with 20 assignments, but the assignments are quite easy and if you get a bad score on your essay the first time, you get a chance to reupload it for a better grade. If you like structure and set outlines for each essay, you'll love this class.
This is my second time taking a class with this professor and it was great again. Easy assignments that guide you in writing your essay. Lotso of extra credit on your assignments as well. Highly recommend this class.
He is an excellent teacher. I took ENC1101 with him and am currently taking ENC1102. He is kind, supportive, and truly wants his students to succeed. His passion for teaching is evident. While the workload can be a lot, the assignments are straightforward. He is also generous with extra credit opportunities. I would take him again
Professor Bennett is good overall. His discussions has some dryness with corky humor to them at times. 4 essays sets & a final. No quizzes or midterms. Thankfully he holds lots of extra credit opportunities He makes building an essay easy and give plenty of templates to assist. I recommend ONLY if you wouldn't mind doing a little work.
If you want to spend almost four hours covering MLA formatting, take his class. Long lectures. Redundant. Wordy textbook and irrelevant assignments, just reading through the textbook overwhelmed me. Every 5 seconds, he'd say, "The computer is trying to control you." Kind, amicable professor, but I couldn't stand how tedious it all was.
Great Prof! Has long but interesting homework sets. Lots of video assignments to comment on relate to essay type and to current events so good for different careers and majors. Also Helps process of writing, so u are not stuck and go in steps. Nice guy
Professor Bennett was absolutely amazing! If you put in the work there's no way you can fail, there's no way you can get anything less than a A! He was so nice, caring and patient with me. I took the course online and the workload was heavy BUT you have a month to complete it! 10/10 I would recommend
I am bad at writing essays, but this professor is amazing and his structured curriculum made it easy. You have 4 essays due (one a month) and the final exam essay. TAKE HIS CLASS! If you do the work (dont leave it till last minute), you will get an A. I loved how we could pick topics we wanted to write about, his assignments help form the essays.
He gives you a month to do everything, but loads the class with endless essays. The questions you have to paste on top? Completely pointless. Does give feedback that helps, just busy work. Only good thing is no discussion posts. Overall he's pretty cool teacher not bad.
Interesting class and useful . Lot of assignments in sets but they build your essays which is good if you're not the greatest writer to begin with. You get to choose your topics or he gives you choices plus video assignments which are interesting too. Clear outlines and models to follow. Great professor overall.
Dr. Bennett makes the class so simple that you should get nothing but an A. He structures the HW assignments the same way you should write your essay, plus how well you do on the HW assignments, he gives you EC. He even goes over some of the assignments in class for you to do together. Take this professor and I promise you'll end up a better writer
Course was very well planned out. Many examples with step by step guides to write your essay. If you do the assignments you have a good essay already planned. Interesting assignments on different topics, plus some video based assignments , plus you can always choose your own topic. Great course!
Truly one of the best professors I've ever had. He gives you over a month for his assignments, gives great feedback, gives room for creativty, NO DISCUSSION POSTS thank gosh. If needed he'll give extra time very nice about it. But just to warn you, theres a reason it takes a month to do his work so dont leave it till the last minute.
