Bob was compelling enough to make me contemplate minoring in English. He is passionate about literature, and will dare you to be too.

This is a writing-intensive course, with some challenging reading.

Bob is a really nice guy but I felt his assignments were very unclear and vague. Did not tell the class what he expected for the essays and basically left you on your own to write it. Lectures were very dry and boring. Would give very little feedback. When asked for clarity on assignments he confused me even more. Passionate professor.

Super Nice Guy. Engl103 had 2 papers (one was a research paper). A midterm, which was in essay format. The final was broken down into two sections; 8 short answer, and an essay. Not the toughest grader, but you still have to put in work to do well. Stay on top of the readings throughout the year because they will play a crucial role on the final.

Robert was a great professor, fair marker and very helpful. Essay criteria was very fair, and didnt expect much and gave lots of time to complete. Workload was light and easy, and was always available through email or office hours.

Professor Einarsson is the sweetest. You can tell he genuinely cares about his students' success and is incredibly knowledgeable in his own field. He adjusts deadlines based on workload, and will give us days off class to work on assignments; he even gave us a day off to relax! I really appreciate how down-to-earth and humble he is.

Cares for students and pushes back deadlines for assignments if the load is "too heavy", which it never is anyways, if you show up to class he tells you exactly what to do on every assignment, sent out regular email reminders on what we should be doing and was a very easy marker, take this prof if you can!!!

Robert was a great professor and is really passionate about the stuff that he teaches. He marks pretty fairly on all your assignments and gives good feedback as well. He does not use any notes or slideshows to teach so attendance is mandatory and prepare to write everything he says. Overall an amazing professor.

AMAZING! If you have strong writing skills and/or are a passionate/opinionated person, this class is the easiest class you will ever take. If you don't possess said traits, then you'll finish the semester having (hopefully) developed some strong writing skills! Peer reviewing was fun (surprisingly). I only went to half of the classes...

Amazing prof, super understanding guy, gives great feedback. One of the most enjoyable english courses I've ever had. Be ready to show up to class, as he assigns "freewrite journals" at the start of every class, based off a prompt he gives in class. You have to submit all of those journals at the end of the sem. Generous grader and super chill!

One of the best professors I've had this term, his workload isn't too heavy and if you show up to class you'd do great. 20% of your grade is freewriting on a topic he gives every class which isn't hard. One thing I would say is that he doesn't really email what he expects on assignments so you have to show up or ask someone in the class.

This man is the best! He has a sense of humor, patient with his student's questions, and is a fair grader. Assigns some readings, such as essays to read, but none of them are difficult- literally do your best to read them and be able to discuss the content (and if you had questions, just ask him and he will help you!) Meets lots too for questions!

I liked Robert, probably the best English prof, my only issue is how much we had to read, and the lectures consist of him talking about the stories, which is really useful, just unbearably boring. He marks easy, but again, there's just so.much.reading. That's my only issue, otherwise an amazing prof

Great guy honestly but every class was repetitive with overview of short stories we had to read the day before and notes is definitely mandatory from what he says about the short stories - so class is mandatory, only thing that was tough was the shakespearean unit of 3 stories and was not engaging at all

He's a very easy marker for his small biweekly assignments and a chill guy overall, but get ready to read AND listen. his lectures feel super long because it's all discussing the short stories he makes you read, though pay attention and take notes because you HAVE to reference all of them in his final which is completely written on paper

While I enjoyed his lectures, I have a hard time rating him high due to the fact that we didn't actually receive feedback. It was all peer-evaluation until he gave the final grades. You can view feedback at the end of the semester once everything is graded, when it doesn't really matter anymore. Readings were fine, assignments were light.

Dr. Einarsson is easily one of my favourite professors!! His reading materials were always fascinating, and his lectures were clear, detailed, and engaging. He's incredibly kind and genuinely passionate about teaching. The class is enjoyable and very manageable if you attend regularly and take good notes, as he highlights what's important.

Amazing prof, his assignments/exams were easy, it was all lecture stuff. Easy marker and made class engaging. Attendance wasn't mandatory but all of the stuff tested was from the lecture. He told you exactly what will be on the exams and did a "practise" with us. Would love to take him! Very sweet and has a few online (Async) days.
