Took us for walks around campus. Most classes spent on grass outside St.Johns!

spent classes outside so he could smoke a lot

Great professor! Funny, interesting and his lectures are actually entertaining. Laid back and super approachable.

Super nice and very helpful. The only class i never wanted to skip.

Took it through Campus MB. Very concise, sharp, and witty. A bit of a monotone, but who could sleep through a Paradise Lost lecture anyway?

Marks kind of hard... but if you're good at it then I guess you'll get A's.

A good prof, lots of humour, lots of variety in his classes.

Made the class interesting and fun. Don't think he marks too hard. Great Prof!

great prof. very funny and easy to talk to. he also takes the time to know your name, which is very refreshing. didn't think his marking was terribly hard, i somehow got an A in his course. he let's you do rewrites, which is awesome, considering im a science student

Very approachable and friendly prof with decent lect. He even knows students by name which is great. His essays are marked really tough but he allows re-writes, so its hard to complain. Very fair exam, if you read and understood novels. Put in the effort and do the re-writes and you'll get B+ or A.

Try and you'll do good.

Mr Campbell is a very good prof. I enjoy his class cause really all you do is discuss and hes actually a pretty funny guy. He is easily approachable but make sure your grammer is correct on your essays or you'll get docked. Really good proffessor and dont listen to the negative posts... its ****

good proff. thinks all students should be average because guess what? you're essays suck! you should read them after the course is over and you will see. You are average until you finish the course then you are slightly above average... slightly. very funny guy and easy to talk to.

Good prof, quoted the Simpsons. Kind of a hard marker, but my essays improved and I got an A. Very nice, very funny, knows his english.

Read the novels he assigns, because he'll kick you out of his class if you don't.

Cares a lot. Awesome stories, allows you to do rewrites on work thats done during the year. Tough marker.

Awesome prof, would take his class again in a second, If you want to read good material, and learn about it in every way this class is for you, non-english majors beware, reading is a must.

I am a science student but his 20th century literature class was my favorite - really nice guy who is willing to help you learn and get a good mark

Excellent prof!! Approachable, funny and smart. Makes class fly by!

Lit and the City. He's a really good prof, very approachable, funny guy, he does make time fly. His assignments could do with more specific instructions, and the readings are VERY necessary. Do NOT get behind, it's impossible to catch up.

Humorous, loves the subject, very into teaching.

Really great prof. Try to keep up with readings- if you fall behind it is pretty much impossible to catch up. You can do really well in his class if you make yourself known and go and ask for help.

He's hilarious, and obviously interested in his subject. He provides really good feedback on essays, but doesn't seem to want to hear anyone's opinions. I got the phrase "You entirely missed the point" a couple times, even though I got As on all my assignments. He wants you to argue HIS point, not your own.

Very hard but very interesting

Excellent professor, would recommend to anyone.

ugh try to avoid this guy at if at all possible. He likes to choose fav.'s early and that helps with a large portion of your grade. If you dont show up to 3 classes u get 0/10% attendance. Really biased, and marks extremely hard. Gives re-writes once a sem, but your mark will go up a max of 3-5%... try to get someone else

overall he was a good teacher, i liked his class. he had a lot of interesting info to teach, but he called on people at random so it sucks if you dont know the answer. i would reccommend him, just go to class and you will learn a lot.

Very good teacher, but the class is a lot of work. Has very interesting stories.

Great prof, talks to you as if you're his friend and remembers everyone's name in the class; very flexible during lectures and just speaks. He kept me interested most of the time; good luck getting an A+, but hey, its first year english right?

Roy is a good prof. His lectures can get a bit long because he just stands in front of class and talks the whole class 99% of classes but most of the things he has to say are interesting and he is pretty funny. IMPORTANT THOUGH : this class WILL hit your GPA, he is a tough marker and the exam is also hard.

He is a pretty nice guy. He is a really hard marker though, so its hard to get a good mark on his essays. If you go to him for help and bring a rough draft he is pretty helpful and that will get your mark up. His lectures are pretty slack becuase all he does is talk the whole time, but pay attention because he calls on people sometimes.

professor is fair, and values participation. best piece of advice i can give is: introduce yourself, participate, and read your material. If he sees effort he will give you a good mark. he seeks those who participate and is loyal to them; however no such thing as an A+, but i got an A, it is possible.

pretty hard marker and a pretty hard class to get a good mark in. he has about 5 students in the class who he likes and the rest are invisible to him. is not very approachable after class

I didn't like this class at first, but if you attend class regularly and participate in his lectures you will do very well in this course. His tests and exams are not meant to trick you, as he wants his students to do well in his class. Yes, he is a hard marker, but he is very fair and will reward students who make the effort to improve.

His lectures are interesting. He explains the material in an engaging manner, using stories, films, and anecdotes. Coursework expectations are high, but he encourages creativity and rewards hard work.

Science student taking this class because I had to- HATEE english. Honestly this teacher is straight forward- marks fair and gives you what you deserve. Put effort in and he will see it. always willing to help, and always giving hints on what will be on the exam. Go to class, listen, and ask if you need help. I think he was awseome! &funny.

Very good professor, understands the plight of Engineering students having to take an arts course. Attendance is mandatory, no tricks on the exams or tests. Encourages students to use proper punctuations.

Very good professor, understands the plight of Engineering students having to take an arts course. Attendance is mandatory, no tricks on the exams or tests. Rewards students just for having proper punctuations.

Very joyous professor and has a great connection with the students (knows you by name!). I disliked the idea if the course in general but am glad Mr. Campbell was teaching it, otherwise it would have been a snoozer. Gives great feedback on assignmentstests and is always open for questions after class and during class.

It's fair enough to say that he often goes on tangents and it may appear counter-productive but he always finds a way to relate it back to the subject and has hilarious lectures. Perhaps the greatest thing about him isn't how tough he marks papers or unique his annotations are at times, but his willingness to help everyone.

He was my favourite professor of my entire university career to date (finishing up my 3rd year at the u of m). All of his stories are related to the lectures, he's clear, gave great first year information about writing essays. He is hilarious and lectures were always very interesting. He gives good feedback on tests and yes, they're tough, it's uni

Hard marker, but gives good feedback.

By far the BEST prof i have ever had! Best book list ever. I learned so much. I found his lectures interesting, he has true passion for the literature he teaches. I loved this class and learned so much. Come to class and the tests and exams will be easy, he's always dropping hints on what you should know. He also makes an effort to learn names.

Roy is an absolute gem. I cannot say enough about what an amazing instructor he is. He ignited such a passion in me for literature, he is absolutely inspirational. I took his course a yr ago & I can honestly say I still think about his lectures to this day. I would always go to his lectures w/ such pleasure. I could go on but Im only allowed 350 ch

Overall a very good prof. He genuinely cares about his students and makes it a priority to get to know them on a first name basis. Friendly, funny, and makes topics as interesting as possible. Only critique is that he's a tough grader on papers, especially on those written in class.

Didnt like him much at first as he babbled the whole class. Since it's a full year course, have gotten to know him and I just love him. He is passionate about what he teaches, replies to emails fast, and will help clarify confusion. Hints about things that will be tested. Class participation is required, and notices when you put effort in essays.

He is a tough grader and kind of blindsides you with harsh feedback . I thought I was a decent writer but now I am a little less sure. That being said, you can tell he truly cares. Most online instructors sit back and would NEVER take the time to help (HE makes the recording/marks the papers). From my POV, he just needs to work on his delivery.

Professor Campbell was by far the most difficult human being I have ever had to deal with. His feedback is at times mean but I also learned the most about writing and about myself from him. He pushes his students to their full potential. I only dislike that he takes of marks for a difference in opinion which is not fair but overall he's great!

I took ENGL 1200 in the 2018-2019 semester and it was one of my favourite classes. I actively looked forward to class and enjoyed the way Professor Campbell taught. He was available outside of class during the office hours he specified on the syllabus. He is a tough-grader but you should do well if you attended lectures and take good notes.

Took his course over the summer, he cut down the usual workload to make it more manageable. Nice guy, lectured a lot and sometimes went off topic but pretty much explained what he wanted on the essays in class. Just show up and participate when he gives the chance. Wasn't the absolute easiest marker either but Id take his class again.

Best Prof I had in uni, and I didn't even major in English
