Her online class is a joke. She is so unorganized and very SLOW at responding to students. Doesn't even really seem to know what she's doing. Very frustrating course. Would not recommend.
Rashmi is a wonderful teacher! I loved going to class, she made it so fun! You have 4 or 5 papers and she grades them so easy! This class is an easy A!! Take her if you want an A!!
Way easy class. All you got to do to get an A is turn your stuff in on time, which is like four papers. And as long as you have 5 paragraphs you get an A. Never gives quizzes, never took tests, however you do alot of busy work out of the book that you turn in at the end of class, but in groups.
She does not communicate with her students at all. She does not respond to emails, her grading system is f'd up she is an english teacher and yet noone seems to understand her sentences when she writes them. I will NEVER take a class with her again!!
She does communicate with her students. Assignments are changed frequently desire 2 learn is very unoriganized.
What a joke and a waste of money. If you want an easy "A" take any of her classes. However, if you plan on learning anything remotely useful, then take anyone else. Useless class. Although I am getting an "A", I didn't really have to do a darn thing.
She is a very nice and easy teacher she needs to be reminded a few times about assignments and such but would highly recommend her as a teacher she's very fair and awesome Not to mention Teacher of the Year for 2005
Super nice and would help a student with anything. Very energetic and fun!
Very bad teacher. She never gets back to students, slow on grading, and is never in her office to help you out. Bewear.
what a joke! she'll never reply to you. 0.01%helpful. i learned nothing. she's very slow on grading it takes her a month to grade essays, when next one is due she will give you previous essay back.no time to ask her a question.never in the office. what a joke. she makes almost no comments on you essay , just a grade(a month later).Be aware
Worst class I have taken yet. I have learned zip, nado, zero, zilch. I pay a lot of money to take classes at RCTC, but this teacher is never in her office and never replies to my emails or voicemails. When I do get my essay back (about a month later), all that is on it is a letter grade. No comments, no feedback, no nothing.
WOULDN'T RECOMMEND
easy to get a good grade in class - just let her know you care
I learned nothing. I didn't like her teaching style, and I'm pretty sure that she just didn't like my writing style. On top of all that, I could not understand most of what she said, because her accent is so very strong, and you get so little time to get accustomed to it before you need to understand it.
Eh. Ok.
Very helpful, nice lady!
the class was not hard, she mostly graded on your papers and discussions (i took it online) she never responded to my emails though.
I received higher grades in some of my other classes because of what I learned in her 0990 and 1117 classes. Great teacher!
She is the most entertain professor I've had the privelage of having class with. And she'll pencil you in for tea anytime. : ]
LEARNED NOTHING in this class. Take "The Art of Being Human" online if you want an easy A. She gave us 2 attempts on every quiz, and you got to see what you got wrong. So you could essentially go back and get 100% on every quiz. Discussions are a joke and the stretch activities are pointless, and force you to spend over $50 in a semester!DONT TAKE!
Professor Rashmi Roy, it has a pleasure to have been your student. You, always encouraging and always the motivator. Thank you for being so dedicated and for added positive growth toward my career. I hope all your future students recognize just how gifted you truly are.
Professor, I cannot begin to tell you the self-confidence I have gained from taking this course! Follow your dreams, seek and though shall find! This class has opened my eyes to many thingsI wish you all the best!
Took the online "Art of Being Human." Positive: gave every chance to do well, gives assignments that get you out to experience and enjoy the arts. Negative: Leaves very little feedback on assignments, and is hard to reach if you have questions. Overall, pretty easy course.
Hardly ever responds to emails or questions, and when she does, she doesn't answer them clearly. Basically just rephrases the question. Her class is fairly easy but if you really want to learn something, don't take it. Very frustrating when you want to know something but she will never answer!
Terrible instructor. If you take her classes online she doesn't communicate with you. She will not answer emails and if she does (which is rare) she will answer with a response leaves you with more questions. She doesn't grade in a timely manner either. I would never take a class of hers again & I do not recommend her to other students.
She is the best teacher, very knowledgeable and caring. She gave me the chance to revise papers. I received extra help in her office with my writing. Would highly recommend her class.
I took her summer class. Assignments were clear and concise. Groupwork was very helpful. She made me understand real writing. You are the best, Dr. Roy
Rashmi Roy rocks! I have taken three classes with Dr. Roy. She is an excellent communicator when it comes to class material and important concepts regarding English. She has motivated me to pursue higher education studies in English and I am thankful to her for believing in me and my potential. I would highly recommend others to take her class.
Coming from a different country, I was scared of English. But, Dr. Roy took the time to work with me on my writing - at least 3-4 days every week, she worked with me to improved my grammar and writing skills. She told me that with practice, I would become a better writer and I have become one. She is a great mentor and a friend.
She was an awesome teacher!!! She honestly wants you to do well, and puts the students needs in front of her own. I've taken two classes with her and in both classes she helped me with anything i needed.
Dr. Roy is a great teacher: a act as a positive role model an ability to work with students from diverse backgrounds and abilities interest in helping people learn enthusiasm about a subject strong interpersonal and organizational skills the ability to work unsupervised creativity, energy and patience digital learning tools and technologies
Dr. Roy is the reason I am i the college. She took extra time to help me with writing strategies. She was there every office hour greeting my questions. I would highly recommend her class to anyone. She is very quick in replying to my emails. Thanks you professor!
First of all, I want to say that I really enjoyed this course. I have learned so much more than I thought I would ever learn from reading these novels. More classes like this should be offered, you really learn a lot and this type of knowledge stays with you and benefits you significantly! I would highly recommend this class. Thank you, Dr Roy!
Dr. Roy is an excellent professor! I was in her office twice a week with my questions and papers with my small baby. I like her because she cares and respects her students. She is my hero and role model.
Dr. Roy is the best professor. Her class was very interesting and informative. I learned a lot about writing skills. She is very caring and humble. I would highly recommend her class. I will take the next class from Dr. Roy.
Took this as an online class over the summer and it was terrible. You had to figure out where everything was on your own and she was of no help being clear on what was expected. I asked for help with my papers and received no response ever just the same exact grade on everything.. Teachers should be around for questions if they have an online class
I took this class online.Dr. Roy often times gave very unclear directions to the papers. If you have questions you might as well not even bother emailing because she will not respond.Usually with an online class the professors top priority is to email students back because that is their form of communication, but that's not true for Dr. Roy.
Last semester, I took English 1118 with Dr. Roy. Dr. Roy is very passionate, well-structured and very professional. I was warmly welcomed during her office hours with great suggestions and areas of improvement to focus on. She is a good listener and knowledgeable professor. Her unique teaching methodology -would recommend her class to everyone.
The best teacher ever - always responding to my emails on time. Grades submitted next week on time which is rare. Specific grade highlights help me to improve next essay. Always listening and helping students. I will highly recommend her class to anyone. I have taken her hybrid, online and in-class -- excellent performance.
I would highly recommend Dr. Roy's class. I learned a lot about technical writing in her class. She was always available in her office. She his the first professor who graded papers in one day. Always gave chances to improve and learn.
Wow! The best teacher ever!! Taking her class changed my perspective of fiction, poetry and drama. She was always available via email and phone. I could reach her at home during weekends. I would highly recommend Dr. Rashmi Roy's class. She has so much respect for all her students.
Great Teachers: Kind and Show Respect, Experts, Have High Expectations, Provide a Warm Environment and Allow Their Students to Make Mistakes. I'm talking about a great teacher Dr. Rashmi Roy. She inspires her students, whether those students are formally enrolled in her class she taught or were simply those who crossed her paths. Lucky me!!
Dr. Roy is the best teacher I had in college. She challenged me to think critically in class. Very helpful with my papers and discussions. She was flexible and caring. I would like to take the next class this summer.
I enjoyed having Rashmi Roy as professor this year. I had her in the fall for Intro to College Writing and in the spring for English 1117. Not only did I learn a lot I also enjoyed going to her class and felt like you could talk to her about anything. She really helped me get back into the swing of college again.
Prof. Roy is the best teacher ever. She did an excellent job of sparking my interest in a course that I wasn’t very interested in. She was also awesome at explaining things until he knew that I understood them. She was always willing to stay long after class to make sure all the students were understanding the materials. Dr. Roy, rocks!!
Dr. Roy is the best teacher I have ever had in college. If you take her class, you will learn a lot as well as have fun! Grades are posted on time. She is available in her office for help anytime.
The best structured course ever! I am taking Technical Comm. with Rashmi online. Assignments are clear and discussions are interactive. She is there to help us through the class. Rashmi respects students' viewpoints, and shows genuine interest in their thinking. I visited her in her office: very sober and cheerful professor. She made my day!
Dr. Roy is the most helpful teacher that I have ever had. She takes the time to explain things clearly and to make sure that everyone in the class, including myself, understands the material for our careers. I am looking forward to taking her ENGL 1118 class next semester. She is an inspirational teacher and her class lectures are memorable.
I am a veteran and was nervous about coming back to school but I am so thankful to have Dr. Roy as a professor. She is always there to give good feedback about how to improve your writing. Take it from someone who took her 1118 class - she;s always there for you as a teacher and I wouldn't have gotten through school without her help with writing.
I was a first time college student coming back from the workforce and nervous about school. Taking Dr. Roy's class was a lifesaver for me. She was always available to answer questions. She always gave good feedback on what I could do better and available during office hours. She's inspired me to become a teacher someday; would take her class again
I took 1117 English class with Prof. Roy last semester. It was such a great experience to get feedback from the professor on a daily basis. I was in her office twice a week with writing questions. She was very patient and helpful. I am a better writer now because of Rashmi. She is a perfect combination of passion, personality, and performance.
I am an international student and this was my first semester and first class here. Rashmi Roy's lectures were great on monfri mornings. lots of activities and journals. now, i feel prepared for further study. I am more confident thanks to her inspiration. She is dedicated to helping students like me. Her smile brightens up friday morning class!
As an African student, I always had trouble with my writing and grammar. After taking Prof. Roy's class, I am confident to say that overall, my English skills have improved. She is the best professor ever!
Prof Roy takes every experience as a learning experience: This is wonderful advice that she follows in her own life. Through her words and actions, she is a role model to everyone. Her supportive attitude constantly makes me push myself farther and continuously learn. Her compassion and dedication to my education has helped me find a career goal.
I took Prof. Roy's FYEX class. It was full of fun activity and inspiration. After taking her class, I am not scared to talk in class anymore. I have a schedule and know how to manage her time. I wish this class was a semester long.
I took Dr. Roy's online 1118 English class. The best professors treat students like people, not numbers; they go beyond their call of duty in terms of helping students and holding office hours; they not only know their material, but they also know how to teach it well. Dr. Roy has all these traits of the best.
The best literature course taught by Rashmi Roy on campus. She was flexible with my health situation and family issues. She graded papers on time with effective feedback. She is a gentle soul with a big smile. If you need help with writing, Rashmi's class is the best.
The best class ever! I know how to write effectively because of Dr. Roy. She was there for me twice a week in her office reading and giving feedback on my papers. I adore her patience and smile.
She is an understanding professor. She does a good job on updating students if there are any changes with class time or class assignments. The assignments for this class are straight forward. As long as you do the class discussions online and your essays you should pass this class. Looking forward to taking English 1118 with this professor!
I took her class this summer and it was amazing. She is very knowledgeable, kind and energetic! Best professor I've ever had
I am taking Dr. Roy's online English 1118 class this semester. Very interactive --she is inspires people to learn and that is a task many teachers don't possess, so I would just like to thank you for that. I can honestly say that you are my only teacher that takes into consideration the feelings and thoughts of your students. Thank you!
WOW you are so the best professor in the world! and I'm not just saying that, all teachers should take lessons from you! You have been so direct and honest in teaching us vital information about important writingissues that revolve around us in the world today. Thank you so much for such a wonderful and enriching class.
I have never come across a professor such as you, someone who really shows passion for their students. I thank you as well for making things much easier for me as a student and for being extremely flexible. I could only wish for an entire university to be based on professors such as you. People such as yourself are people that others never forget.
You really were an incredible help during the entire semester and I owe much of my success to you. I will come in to see you as soon as I can! Each session was always informative and well organized, while your encouragement to all students was greatly appreciated. It is very obvious that you enjoy what you do. Would highly recommend Dr. R Roy.
Rashmi as a professor can be a little confusing at times, but just ask her questions and you will get your answer. She is a very sweet person and her class is not too hard. Don't bother trying to communicate with her through email because that's where she is most confusing. Go see her in her office. She is a lot clearer when you see her in person.
Dr. Roy is a great teacher. She is very helpful and always in her office. Grades are submitted on time with clear feedback. She saved my semester.

I took Dr Roy's English 1117 online. She was very helpful and encouraging. I will recommend everyone to take her class next semester. She was in her office hour whenever I needed help. Just follow the instructions and you will succeed. Dr. Roy - you are the best!
Very caring and nice. Don't ask her things over email as she is very confusing and either doesn't respond or says "look on D2L". The papers are very unclear as to what you write about sometimes. She is an easy grader, and there is little to no homework. Overall a good teacher and easy.
Dr. Roy is a great teacher: very humble, knowledgeable, punctual, reachable in office , email or phone. She understands our everyday problems in life and writing and reaches out to help anytime.

Dr. Roy had laid out instructions that were easy to follow except for the final research paper. I had emailed her a question in regards to the instructions and she told me to follow the guidelines- the part I had a question on. Overall she was an easy grader and organized except for the final.
I took Dr. Roy's English 1117 in class and was very pleased. She was there for me from the very first week of class. She was flexible with my personal situation and ready to help me with my missed assignments. It was a relaxed but learning atmosphere every class. I felt welcome and protected as she understood my problems. Take her 1117 class.
Very nice teacher. Is always willing to help when needed and gives good feedback on the assignments. Would highly recommend taking this class with Dr. Roy.

Rashmi Roy is a beautiful soul who has the ability to bring out the best in her students. I myself was an average writer at best, until I took Dr. Roy's class and was able to unlock inner writer.
I took Dr. Roy's class this summer. Very helpful and great class set-up. She always replied to my questions on time. Grades were submitted always on time. Take her class and you will learn good English.
Dr. Roy was okay. Online class so engagement was different. Wish she would create video lectures to help students understand the concepts and offer her spin on the concepts, remembered event, and argument essays. Relied too heavy on students reading the book to understand concept. Online discussion participation mandatory. Summer essay due weekly.
Dr. Roy is an academic legend and a shining star. I enjoyed her ENG 1117 online class this summer and find myself ready to take on the world. Dr. Roy has clearly demonstrated excellence in teaching, as evidenced by her consistently giving student feedback with a clear grading criteria. I would highly recommend her class to all students.
I was so scared first day of class. Prof. Roy helped me from day one till the end of the semester. Reach out to her - she is superb. English is my second language and she understood and worked with me in her office every week. I am going to take English 1118 this year again. She respected me and my questions with clear direction.
I am from Somalia who took Dr. Roy's English 1118 online class. Class was very structured with clear essay guidelines. Online discussions were very interactive. The best thing was that the Prof. was available outside the class to read my rough draft and answer all my questions. I could reach her via phone also. Great prof. - take her class.
I took 1109 Fall semester. Great class set-up with lots of extra resources for you to succeed. She was available online and cellphone. You will learn a lot assignments and discussions. I am ready for the job force because of this class. Prof. is knowledgeable, kind, flexible, and available to her students. I am going to take 1118 online next sem.
I took Dr. Roy's class 1117 last summer online. I had a family emergency and had to visit my country. She was flexible and ready to work with me till the last day of class. Assignments are very clear with enough time to finish them successfully. Take her online class in summer. You will love her teaching style and humbleness. She is the best!
Take Dr. Roy's 1117 class - she is the very caring and problem solver. I was having family problems and she understood my situation and gave me extra time to submit. It made a difference to my self-esteem and I could finish the class with good grade. I never thought I will get such great help. She is a life-changer. Thanks, Dr. Roy
I hate reading and writing papers, took her online 1118 class. I'm doing very well and thankfully I took her as a teacher. Highly recommend
Greatly outlined online class. There are three units of discussions usually with three discussions each within. They're four papers throughout the semester which are not too bad if you do your reading. The material ranges from poetry to plays to short stories. I wish I could've received specific feedback on my papers so I knew what to improve on.
Took her English 1117 class Spring 2018 in class - excellent prof. She was very energetic in class, Knows her subject and students. Her one on one helping attitude is very rare in professors. I am from Africa with English my second language. She created an outline especially for me how to be successful-great feedback and welcoming nature.
Took Dr. Roy 1117 this summer. Very flexible and caring. I had family emergency -she was always available on phone and text. I could pass the class only with her help. Take her class. Talk to her. Meet her.
She is a very poor communicator. Takes a very long time to receive grades back. I send her emails with questions and she gives you one word responses and that doesn't even answer my question. Very frustrating.
Summer 2018 English 1118 class was a great learning experience. She was prompt in replying to my emails and phonecall. Texting to prof was a real fun. Very knowledgeable and great resources posted in class. I would highly recommend this class. Reach out to her. Make sure to use rctc email to reach her. Thanks prof!
Feedback was posted every week with clear grading criteria. Great professor who can reached anytime. Leave message and she will be back very soon. Class was very clear and concise. You have to work to earn a good grade. Great prof.!!
Take her class - great professor.
I was in Dr. Roy's English 1118 class. It was a great experience with good feedback. Discussions were very engaging. I would recommend this class. Make sure to reach out to her.

Dr. Roy is incredibly understanding and compassionate. She genuinely wants you to pass her class. The readings are short and comprehensible. She will go out of her way to make sure you're passing her class.
Took her call last semester. I am from Sudan with so many problems with English language. Dr. Roy was very helpful and patient with my writing. She helped me throughout the semester to be successful. I was losing my hope and she motivated me to finish essays and readings. Take her class. You will get help.
love rashmi roy! generally cares about her students and if you need help shes always willing to do what she can. deff would take her again.
Dr. Roy is the best prof on campus - knowledgeable, global, cares about students with ESL, flexible, in her office to help. Take her class.
There is only one professor on campus who really cares about diversity. Dr. Roy you are a champion of diversity. I took English 1117, first semester, from Somalia, lost and confused about everything. She was patient and encouraging not only in class but in her office, made sure that I learned how to write professionally. I could text her. Take her
Take Dr. Roy's English 1109. Excellent prof, very helpful, caring, sweet and flexible. She created a special plan for me and I could finish the class with so many personal problems. She is ready to help if your tell her. Highly recommend English 1109 online by Dr. Roy
Most caring prof. on campus. Take her class.
Great professor who will help you learn good writing. Take her class. I am from Somalia too 1117 and going to take 1118 next semester. Very helpful and sweet.
Dr. Roy provides instructive feedback that challenges and inspires students while providing specific suggestions to improve the quality of their work and thinking. Took her 1117 class as physically challenged student - consistently fosters critical thinking through challenging students to elaborate on their thoughts. Highly recommend her classes.
Lectures are not structured at all. Most days we're only in class for 20 minutes before she runs out of things to talk about, and most of what she talks about are quotes you found interesting in that day's reading assignment. She was gone a lot, either sick or to have optional meetings with students. Papers were easy. Overall nice lady though
Amazing lectures! She is the best professor on campus. Take her class.
Best professor ever. Coming from Vietnam my English was not well-structured. Dr. Roy worked with me and now I can easily write an essay. She made sure that I learnt new words to build up my vocabulary. If English is your second language, take her class and learn about the writing process.
Take Dr. Roy's class. You will learn critical thinking skills and essay writing. I am first generation student taking English class. She was very helpful throughout the semester. She gave great feedback on all my papers. Ask for help and you will get in her course. Thanks Dr. Roy!
Since the COVID pandemic situation, Dr. Roy was very helpful with class work and being accessible. This is a tough time for many students and she made sure that we all got the help we needed. I could contact her anytime for feedback on my assignments. Definitely recommend all her classes!
Prof. Roy focuses on collaborative learning and effective teams. I took her class last semester - would like to take her class again. Very helpful and reachable. She was there everyday of class with well-planned lectures. Group work was amazing. Feedback was fast and chance of improvement. Take her class you you believe in diversity.
Took English 1117 with Dr. Roy. It was a great semester with lots of readings. She is the best professor ever who handled classes during COVID 19 pandemic by being accessible via zoom, phone and texts. She cares about students and make them learn. Take her class.
Dr. Rashmi Roy is an amazing professor. She cares so much about her students and she does everything she can to help us out. She gives amazing feedback and is always there for you. You write four papers in her class and have a total of 7 discussions in her class. If you take her for English you will NOT regret it!
Dr. Roy was the coolest teacher I had at RCTC. I loved her way of teaching and her feedback was always super helpful for me. The only thing I didn't appreciate was the amount of group work, but that was because my group was a pair. (And for doing group work they weren't very helpful.) I suggest Dr. Roy all the way.
Dr. Roy's class was one of my favorite classes throughout the whole semester. She is so sweet and is always open to questions and ideas. There were lots of short readings in class. To go with the readings you have discussions with your peers about the themes and topics in the reading. Only four essays throughout the semester. Overall an easy A :)
Got switched with 8 weeks left in the class
I am from Cambodia, taking Dr. Roy's class was very refreshing - has passion for the subject, teaching, and learning. She is an excellent communicator who encourage students to own lifelong learning. It was fun to read Othello with the prof. She understands the importance of diversity and being an immigrant. A great coach - thanks, prof. Roy!
Champion of diversity - actively involved in diversity, equity, and inclusion activities for Somali and other ethnic groups, demonstrates leadership through positive interaction with persons of diverse identities and backgrounds, lifeline for all immigrants on campus. Students wait for years to take Dr. Roy's class. Not only a prof but a mentor
Took 1117 from Dr. Roy - very caring and approachable. English is my second language as I am from Saudi Arabia. Prof. was there for me through zoom conferences and phone. She looked at my essays and gave good feedback. The best and smartest prof on campus. Very well regarded!
Dr. Roy's enthusiasm and real-world examples made a very technical subject relevant and entertaining. helped me look for deeper meaning into English. She was also instrumental in convincing me to study abroad for a summer. I had a fantastic experience that I will never forget. I can never repay her for all the experiences she made possible.
One of my favorite professors. Really motivating when I had issues with the material. She spent extra time in her office hours to help me and read my papers and give me effective feedback. Thanks Dr. Roy!
Dr. Roy is a walking angel on earth. Very charismatic, intelligent and sober. Professor was very well organized in her online class. My professor was very quick to work with and get back to students that were in need of help. It was nice to call her to discuss literature assignments. She is a gem!!
Prof. Roy - Caring - genuinely care about students at all levels. Take an interest in the students. Understand the changing generations. Listen to students, Respect students Advise and Mentor making a personal connection with students, rapport Approachable, Patient Encourage students to own lifelong learning.

It was fun to learn Othello and poems in Dr. Roy's class. She encourages discussion and promotes active learning strategies in the discussion area. We had to reply to two students with constructive criticism -persistently monitors students progress toward achieving learning goals through discussions in class, out-of-class assignments, and other.
Dr. Roy has a love of teaching or passion for the work, which includes commitment to students success. Responses often referred to loving the subject matter or simply being dedicated to the work. She is able to engage and motivate students to learn - understands the pace and capacity of the student. Thank you my professor.
