Very nice. Very easy grader. Gives plenty of time for the essays, and then lets you rewrite them if you don't like your score. Personally, I think it's too easy. It's supposed to be a college course.
Mr. Dixon-Kolar was an awesome teacher, I learned a lot from him! He is one of the nicest people you will ever meet and he wants to see you succeed in his class! He encourages us to come to him for help! Take his course you will not regret it!
d-k was a cool teacher, fun quirky, but all around a nice guy. take him if you want a cool teacher thats not too hard and is not a jerk!

Definately take this class! DK is a very nice guy who is willing to take the time to help anyone who needs it. He prepares the class very well for all the essays he requires you to do. They are not very long and very easy topics to write about. I probably missed almost half of the classes and still got on A.
He is an incredible professor who teaches with a clarity and intensity never seen. I want him againas my professor.
He is such a nice man. He gives assignments but is very lenient on due dates and lets you turn it in multiple times if you don't like your grade. He helps anyone out if you need it both academically and personally. Such a great professor
I recommend this professors to whom ever has a great deal of interest in the art and understanding of expressive writing.
Excellent teacher. Very nice guy and extremely helpful. He knows his stuff and teaches with immense clarity; very easy to understand. This class really helped improve my writing and find my personal writing style. Will take his next courses.
He is a great teacher. If u need help, he's there for u anytime. He will help you as much as u need for you to get an A. Very laid back, nice, and courteous. U dont have to go to his class often, just do all your essays and you will be fine. He helps you a lot. I recommend this teacher for eng 0492 and 1101.
He is the best. If you are looking for a understanding, helpful instructor...take his class. I took this class in my summer semester.
Very helpfull and easy to understand
DUUUDE! he was awesome..best teacher yet
Awesome teacher. Probably my favorite so far. Really gets into what he talks about.
best teacher I have ever had. He is open and very tolerant
I LOVE this teacher! He is absolutely awesome! He is so interesting and smart! I can't believe I was actually interested in an English class! He made it easy to learn and is SUPER DUPER nice!! He helps in ANY way that he can and never gets angry. He wants everyone to succeed, anyone that has anything bad to say about him is just a lazy moron.
Mr. Dixon-Kolar is awesome! He's super helpful and kept me interested all four hours and twenty minutes of my english class two days a week. Very passionate teacher, wants you to enjoy the class.
loved him! he really enjoys his classes, very helpful and useful class. Great teacher it's a must take class with him =]
Dr. D-K will go out of his way to make sure everyone understands. His priority was that everyone improved from where they were before. He can find good things in any paper. I liked that he gave specific outlines for assignments, but would allow students to be creative if they wanted. Isn't strict about deadlines, Gives feedback on each paper, A+!
EASY A!!! 5 papers at 750-1500 words, but gives you a chance to REDO them if you don't do well. VERY EASY. Midterm and final is exactly like study guide. Will go out of his way to help. I recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for an easy A. Attendance regularly is important but not mandatory.... kind of boring but lets you out early a lot.

Professor Dixon-Kolar is the best english teacher in COD. He's very helpful when ask for help after class. He's not mean at all. Just 5 essay, exams and few small quizzes. Easy class!
Mr.Dixon is a cool teacher. I RECOMMEND YOU TAKE HIM. LOOK NO FURTHER, HE IS HELPFULL AND MORE THAN WILLING TO HELP YOU IF YOU NEED DIRECTION. HE MAKES CLASS INTRESTING AND REALLY WANTS YOU TO PASS. QUIZZES ARE EASY IF YOU STUDY HIS GUIDE. NO SURPISES ON THE FINAL. TELLS YOU EXACTLY WHAT TO STUDY. PUT FORTH THE EFFORT AND YOU SURELY WILL GETAN A
Professor Dixon is awesome. He doesn't want anyone in class to fail. Even if you miss classes, you will still be on track, as long as you ask him for help. I took his class this summer, and it was so easy!
GREAT HELPER, HE WON'T LET YOU FAIL HIS CLASS. HE'S THERE TO GIVE EXTRA HELP IF NEEDED
Class sometimes talks about common senese stuff
easy grader and nice and helpfull
he is so helpful professor as well.....if you have willing to miss class because of some reason, you have to let him know ahead of time so that he can figure out the attendant...he gives a point for attendant in class, too.
Mr. DK is hands down the best professor I have ever had at C.O.D. He is very helpful. 5 papers, 5 tests, and attendance is your grade. I was nervous about taking an english class but Mr. DK made class very intresting and I'm actually starting to like english now.
He's a highly disorganized teacher. Our class was supposed to have 5 essays, 5 tests but we only really ended up doing 4.5 essays and 4 tests. The one essay was half finished. Yeah. I like him though! He is a good teacher.
Very very easy class. You write a few papers but theyre all pretty easy. He's a really nice guy, kinda boring but is always willing to help you and gives alot of reminders. Also he lets you revise all papers for a better grade. Also, a pretty easy grader. Class is boring but I passed with like a 99%
Great man! Very compassionate and understanding! Goes out of his way to work with you!!!
Great professor! Eng is not my interest list. But his clarity and his guideline helped me lot. I was not expecting an A in this class. In addison, it was summer class for 4 week and v have to write 5 essay and 1 test on MLA rule, and against my interest, I made A. u will not get other professor as much helpful as him.close ur eyes, and enroll 4 him
HE'S AMAZING!!! so helpful and nice, i had a great time in his class! great great professor! TAKE HIMMM
DK is the best english teacher i have EVER had!!! I hate english but he made is simpl and fun. he knows so much about different ways to write and he allows you to have your own style. I will be taking every english class i need with him... TAKE HIM!!!
AWESOME TEACHER! Goes out of his way to help you. I took the 5-week summer class. I would recommend him for any class and any one. He lets you be your own writer and he is very understanding and compassionate. Very clear with what he wants from you, almost impossible not to get an A in his class! I got a 99! Great teacher.
Little bit boring lectures but He is the best teacher ever. I would say easy A. TAKE HIM
his lectures are kind of long but as long as your turn in all of your work it should be an easy a! and if u need extra time hes willing to give it to you as long as you show up to class.
I really recommend this professor! He's so nice and really cares about helping students. I was very ill and missed quite a few classes and when I returned he was very helpful with getting me caught up. Was understanding when I needed extra time. I was surprised to have gotten a B, I know I would've gotten an A if I weren't sick. Easy final exam!
Professor Dk is very helpful guy. There is 5 essays and attendance points. No test, no quizzes or FINAL!!! He is willing to help students and revise a paper:) very nice guy EASY A !!!
MR.DK is a really nice teacher and always willing to help.class is supper easy..There's no way you will fail this class.....highly recommended!!
DK is the best teacher at COD, hands down. The most helpful, most patient, & kindest man you could imagine. Will go out of his way to help & answer any question you could have. I had the best experience in his class, amazing teacher!!
I took English 1 the summer before I went to college. I was nervous at first, but Professor Dixon made English seem fun and easy! He is extremely helpful and nice.
Unclear at times but overall a quality teacher!
Mr. DK is a great and helpful teacher. He is willing to help all of his students one on one and allows for revisions. I highly recommend taking him - especially straight out of high school. He is the BEST!
He's one of the most caring teachers I've ever had. He's so helpful if you go to him with questions. He is kind of boring and slow at teaching but all you have to do is follow the directions for each project and it's an easy A. Definitely recommend him!
He is very approachable with a nice attitude. He cares a lot about his students. He is very fair on his grading. He will also do his best to help you out!! No textbook required for English 0492.
professor dk is awesome. He was always willing to help his students so they get the grade they deserve. Gives plenty of time for the essays and gives examples so its easier for the students. really cares about his class.. attendance is mandatory. His lectures can get boring but definitely an easy A!
I've taken D-K the past two semesters. He's one of the best professors i have ever had. Very caring,genuine, and always there to help you out. Don't be afraid to ask for help, he wants you to pass.!!! I wanted to take him for English 1102, but unfortunately, due to my work schedule i cant. Gave good recommendations on who i should take next.
He made this class so easy and understanding. He makes sure each and every student is in the same path. Definitely would recommend him!
He is one of the best professors at COD. he is very nice and patient, gives enough time to complete your assignment and gives good feedback so you can redo your paper and get a better grade, very interesting lectures. a lot of extra credits. it's really an easy A.
I was a bad writer in high school. I had just about given up on being a proper writer but Mr. DK showed me the ropes and made me fall in love with a subject I had serious contempt for. He's very patient, respectful, and caring, but also honest about what you need to do to improve. If you want to be a better writer, Mr. DK is your guy.
THE BEST professor!! Honestly one of the greatest professor's I've had here at COD and in general education. He is so caring towards his students and really wants them to succeed. His writing assignments are very pleasant and fun to do and I would HIGHLY recommend taking his class!
Dk is amazing, I've never was a good writer until I met Mr. DK he cares for his students, as long as you do want you got to do he will help you and actually go out his way to pass.
BEST TEACHER I'VE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE! Long live Dixon!
The class may be slightly dull but, he really does care about the student. He will tell you exactly how to fix your paper to make it stronger if you ask. He's very nice and he gives you the tests to do before the actual test day. He explains everything so there is not a small chance someone can fail this course.
Professor DK was an amazing professor for English 1101. He is very caring and patient with students and is always willing to meet with you outside of class. We had 4 tests however, he was an easy grader and we also had 4 papers to write plus a portfolio project at the end of class.
Professor D-K is awesome! He is very kind and will help you become a better writer. If you are worried about your writing, like I initially was D-K will change that. He gives extra credit for getting help with the Learning Commons, and will allow you to rewrite papers for full credit.
I took him for English 1101. He is a very good professor that gives you good feedback. We did 4 essays and 1 final exam essay that was easy. Definitely recommend this professor, you wont regret.
He is super supportive and helpful. The book is needed like 2 times over the semester, save the money and use the book at the library. He only took attendance like 7 times over the whole semester. Awe had 5 papers over the semester, he said it depends on how long each takes by the whole class and 3 tests. He is extremely understanding also.
Super nice guy! Highly recommend. He works with you whenever you need help. Accessible outside of class or even through email, and gets back to you quickly Via email. If you do the work that he asks, you will pass! Take him, you will not regret it! I wish he was teaching 1102!
3 words: BEST PROFESSOR EVER! Take him, you won't regret it
DK was amazing! One of the best teachers Ive ever had. His class was always something to look forward to and I never had to worry about not doing well. He was always there and helped you no matter how much you needed him. If you take this class there is no one more qualified!
THE BEST. He is caring, friendly and helpful teacher. Always responds to email.
He is extremely helpful and doesnt let you give up. He is the best teacher I have ever had overall. Id recommend just going to the library for the book since you dont use it much. If you dont like English he makes it a lot better and less boring.
So nice. He understand life happens and wont let you down.
I took this class in Summer (2019). As someone who dreads writing lots of papers, Prof. DK made this class very easy. He is an easy grader and gives good feedback. He even posts essays written by his former students as examples of his assigned essays. Whenever I needed help on my essays, he would be willing to help. I highly recommend Prof. DK!
Professor D-K has been my favorite Professor at COD. With everything being online because of covid, Professor D-K does a damn good job. He is always responding to emails which is super great because most professor don't respond until a day later but D-K responds quickly. I recommend this class with this professor to anyone. I'd take it again.
Great teacher and easy grader. Recommend!
D-K is by far one of my FAVORITE professors at COD. He wants you to succeed and will work with you. He is very understanding that life happens and provides plenty of examples when it comes to the papers he wants you to write. He is also very good at responding to emails and is all around a very caring person.
Mr. D-K is an excellent professor. He has low expectations for his students and as long as you do the work, you should do well. He usually took late assignments with no penalty.
I have never met so nice and caring professor! Professor Dixon-Kolar is a real pedagogue, he helps you to understand all of the assignments well and he will give you another chance to re-submit your work.
The class is all about writing, so you would expect a lot of paper works especially for essays. Prof D-K is a very considerate professor, he wanted everyone in class to succeed. He is very thorough in grading and giving feedback. Do all of the assigned works, and you will be fine the whole semester.
Mr. Dixon-Kolar was a very resourceful teacher who really made my experience in English 1101 not too complex. Whenever I had questions, he had just the right answers and was always willing to lend a hand. While he does have class expectations that should be met, his grading will certainly match with the effort you put in towards the assignments.
D-K was a great professor for an online course. He laid out all of the projects with great detail and provided explanation videos to refer to if necessary. He was always available to answer questions (quick replies with email) and as long as you actually put effort to do the assignment as he presented it you will get an A. He's an easy grader.
His pretty good at teaching and nice. He also a pretty good grader and not that strict!
Professor Dixon-Kolar is by far the best professor I have ever had. I took his English 1101 class in spring 2020 and am just writing this now. I have never encountered a professor that I have respected and felt cared for more than P. Dixon-Kolar. He is the best professor I have had in my 3 years of COD. TAKE HIS CLASS.
I've taken him in a lower class then took him in English 1101, he is a great professor, he is willing to help his students and he cares. I definitely recommend him to whoever wants to have a good professor. You wont regret taking him. Also, he knows how to talk to his students.
I just finished the 5-week summer class, which is fast, but professor DK is really patient and he is the most gentle man I have ever seen. This class is helpful for your writing skills.
Prof. DK is the best English teacher I have ever had. He is very patient and makes sure everyone understands the topics. There are five main essays that weigh more, some busy work throughout the week. He is a great professor for shy and outgoing people, and never did too much calling on students. Worked in groups only a couple of times. Recommend!
Professor Dixon-Kolar was amazing. He was extremely caring and made sure to answer any questions people had to the best of his ability. He gave us plenty of in-class time for essays and other work. Very accessible outside of class and gave extra credit. He is also very patient and worked really well with students whose first language is not english
Very very warm and great at his craft amazing professor and good writer
Choose him, absolute great teacher, you won't regret
