I went into this class extremely apprehensive because I heard he was very difficult, and he is. But if you attend class and do the work there is no reason for you not to at least get a C (with minimal effort). He uses books that are not widely known but are very interesting. His midterms and finals aren't easy, if you study you'll do fine.

I took all of Memmer's classes. He has inspired dozens of students, including myself, more successfully than many of the professors I had at UC Berkeley, and his passion, wisdom, expectations, and impossible MLA standards have contributed to my success as a student and profound love for literature. He' s one of the best teachers I've ever known.

I am so glad that I took Professor Memmers class. He cares about his students and helps you to actually learn. He does one on one phone conferences to help with any questions or hurdles and doesnt make you feel stupid for not already knowing. Makes you work for your grade but it is worth it in the end. Great and caring guy I recommend 100%

I would not recommend this teacher for English 102. He dosen't teach and expects you to know all of the material. The grading system isn't balanced and if you make a small mistake you drop a leader grade. Most students either dropped out or got a bad grade.

My class was online. He gave 2 essays, a few discussions, no test and an option to have 10min phone conferences which he canceled maybe 4 weeks of classes to go over your essay and it's progress. Which helps a lot. He graded pretty fairly, but despises plagiarism. He sent those back for correction. Sit in the front, take notes, ask questions.

Great professor. Probably had classes like four or five times and the rest were phone calls to help with your essays. We had 2 essays and they were relatively easy. He has a sign up sheet so he can call you and help you with your essay. Sign up, it's worth it and you have a higher chance of getting a good grade. Super nice professor.

One of my favorite professors from last semester. He wants his students to succeed and is very passionate about English. The phone conferences were a huge benefit in asking questions about assignments and for help if needed. Take advantage of them, trust me they were very helpful! Only 2 major essays follow the criteria and you'll pass!

Doesn't respond to emails, asked for help and never got me into his phone conferences. Good luck getting any help from him. He's super unorganized and complains when we do have class. Last semester we had class 4 times and the rest were conferences that I could never get into. Worst teacher I have ever had at AVC.

I took his class online and it was just awful. I had to work my butt off to get an A. I do not know how this teacher has a good rating, he really needs to retire because he does not offer help or reply to his emails. He seems nice but we barely had class when I took him. I would avoid taking any of his classes if you are not self-independent.

Easily the best English teacher that I’ve ever had!! I took him for all of my required English classes at AVC + ENGL235. If you just show up and do the little amount of work he assigns (in comparison to other teachers), you’re virtually guaranteed an A or a B. He really cares about his students and will go out of his way to help them if needed.

This class was pretty straightforward. The only grades we had were two MLA research papers and six or so discussions. If writing essays is your thing, you'll easily make an A. If it's not, then he's caring enough to give you advice and writing tips in office hours, and you'll still be able to make a high grade. I definitely recommend taking him!

Memmer was the best English professor I've had at AVC thus far. He is very approachable and offers many opportunities for students to get his feedback on their writing. Most of the assignments are easy As, other than the two big essays, which he will offer guidance on. Also fairly lenient on times and attendance; he isn't super uptight about it.

Memmer was a professional editor before being a professor, so he grades like one. I recommend only taking his class if you're an English major just because it is not really worth the struggle of making sure your papers meet his standards when you could just take an easier class. He gives great feedback if you ask for it and has a lot of knowledge.

This professor was not for me. He graded things VERY late, as in 3 weeks or more after submitting the assignments. I reached out about this but all I got was "I got over 100+ students" which is probably true but so do other professors. If we're held to a certain standard I think professors should as well. There's not too many assignments though.
