He's always prepared for class and gets papers back on time. He will spend as much time as it takes with individual students to help them with they're papers. Also, he has a great sense of humor and very laid back. His class was one of the funnest classes I've had.
I hate english, but he made it quite interesting. I loved going to his class. He was always prepared and he's funny, helpful, and just an all around good guy. very clear on what he expects but he's so laid back everyone loved him in my class. willing to help anyone..his class will really help improve your writing! prepares you for future englis
Entertaining, dynamic teacher. As a person you will love him. As a teacher I personally thought he was tough. Willing to work with people though. He's very into english and writing. So he is good at ripping things apart. if you don't like English you probably won't like him. I like it, but don't love it. Personally I wouldn't take this class again.
Great teacher. he expected us to be there on time and prepared for class. He was a hard teacher and expected a lot from us, but he was very helpful. I learned a TON in this class!
I heard this class was easy - this was a lie. Sure, I passed the class with a B, but I had to work my butt off to get it. I was worried that if I missed too much class that my grade would go down. I made sure I was their every day and even compared notes with others. I learned quite a bit. I think I'll do just fine in my next English class.
Best english teacher ever! He was alot of fun and really cares about you as a writer. very clear on what he wants and expects. I would take this class for english 1010 if you really want to learn and have fun writing!
Zach is way cool. He'd talk about the funniest things with our class, including his random make out stories from high school. He was not the best at explaining assignments though, just a fun guy. He wasn't the easiest grader and I could never read his corrections because of his handwriting.
I always looked forward to his class! He knows how to bring up topics and discussions that will help you with the current paper (the longest was only 5 pages) and also prepare you for future writing. Just go to class and you'll do fine. Don't be afraid to ask when you don't have a clue of what's going on, because he will take the time to explain.
Zach was a huge stud. I was a ex construction worker who couldn't give a crap about english. He inspired us to be not just better at writing, but better students, and better people. I actually looked forward to class. I had to study hard to get an a-, but he doesn't expect more than what a normal college freshman is capable of. He is awesome!
He is a tough grader and I could never tell what he had said on my papers his hand writing was terrible. If you are passionate about writing take his class he is very enthusiastic
I loved his class. Zack is trying to publish his own books and really cares about all styles of writing. He's really good at feedback on your papers and isn't to hard if you just do the work.
He is very helpful! I loved going to his class. Zach made it fun and interesting. Papers aren't too hard if you follow what he says. The only downside was you can't read his handwriting when you get your paper back.
He is very helpful! I loved going to his class. Zach made it fun and interesting. Papers aren't too hard if you follow what he says. The only downside was you can't read his handwriting when you get your paper back.
Involved, energetic, makes you better. His downside: Not enough clarity on papers. During an assignment each class you learned something that made you have to change your paper, because he wanted so many specifics. He writes tons of stuff on a paper when he grades, but you can't read it. What's the use?
Zach is amazing! Sure, his hand writing isn't understandable, but it doesn't hurt to ask him for help anyway. He is very passionate about what he's teaching, and a really chill, great guy. I definitely recommend him.
I loved my ENGL 1010 class with Zach! He's such a chill guy. His serious about his stuff, so he's a little tough, but he teaches you everything you need to know to write the papers for his class. I definitely recommend him if you want a fun but educational class that will push you a bit.
I loved this class.Zach is a way fun professor & I actually looked forward to going to class.Took it in the summer so had to work fast to get the required papers written but he is super helpful on giving feedback & is very willing to help.Recommend taking this class from Zach-you will learn a lot!
Zach is the man! He's easy to understand and makes people look forward to his class. No tests, just papers. He lets people pick what they want to write a paper on so you can have fun with it. Highly recommend him.
Great teacher! keeps everything so interesting and is so funny. I plan on taking his 2010 class because he is that awesome. take his class!
He wants you to succeed! If you honestly put work in your papers and work hard he will meet you and help you pass his class just do the work and show up for class and you'll do fine
Great guy.
Learned tons.
Zach is hands down the best teacher I have ever had. He not only cares about the students and what he is teaching but he will get the class interested as well. The assignments aren't easy but he will explain them until you get it, doesn't grade on grammar just put in an honest effort and you'll do fine. His handwriting isn't as bad as people say.
One of the best professors I've ever had! Makes the class very interesting and makes sure everyone understands. If you do you put in a full effort you'll be happy with your grade! :)
Great and very helpful teacher! If you have any questions at all he is glad to help. Very fair at grading and you will get the grade you deserve. He tries to make class very enjoyable and succeeds!
He is a great teacher! He is an awesome English professor that really helps with the essays that you'll write. It is a harder class, but you'll better understand how to write great essays.
Super helpful. Really wants you to learn. If you have a problem with this guy, you have a problem.
He wants to help students succeed, not just in the class but also in our careers. It is tough class but the rewards justify the investment.
He was AWESOME!!! I would take another class from him in a heartbeat. He wants his students to succeed. He helps you put together all of your papers and what you need exactly. If you have the chance....take a class from him
I really enjoyed this class. He made English fun! He isn't the easiest teacher but if you want to be read for ENGL 2010 he is a great teacher. He is super helpful and will sit and talk with you tel you understand! I recommend him as a teacher! Just be ready to work hard!
Zach is an incredible teacher!!! Lectures are great and interesting and I actually looked forward to attending class. He is extremely helpful and wants his students to succeed. As long as you show up and work hard, you'll come out a better student and writer. I would take another class from him in a heartbeat! Favorite english teacher I've ever had
He's ans awesome teacher. He keeps your attention pretty well. He only assigns the papers, he doesn't give busy work in between papers.
Awesome teacher. I had him for English 1010 and 2010. He knows what he's talking about, is funny, and keeps things interesting. I always emailed him or his assistants with questions and they went out of there way most times to help me with whatever! I definitely recommend him if you are truly wanting to learn and be a good writer.
Zach is an awesome teacher. I loved his class. He's great at explaining exactly what he wants in the papers and he know how to answer your questions. He's one of my favorite teachers, he made English and entertaining. I definitely recommend him.
Professor Largey is one of my favorite professors. Very clear in what he wants and I have learned a lot so far!
Best English class I have ever had. Zach wants his students to take away useful skills that they can bridge into other fields/classes. He wants his students to improve with each paper. He gives the assigned papers as assignments; he doesn't like giving busy work. I would recommend him to anyone taking an English class.
Zach, has been probably the best english teacher I have ever had. I enjoyed his teaching style, and how fun he made learning and the class in general.
By far my favorite college professor that I have had; I wish every professor was like him! Incredibly passionate and slightly nerdy about english, which made the class extraordinarily beneficial. He engaged every single student by name each and every class- I am still in awe how he pulled off the amount of attention he gave to each student!
Always available to help with papers and other assignments by phone or email. Replies extremely fast.
He made us write the minimum requirement for English papers. He gives you a B on every paper if he sees that you followed his format and his intention. I am a crap writer, and I still got a B. Attendance IS REQUIRED
Zach is the best teacher ever! I loved his style of teaching and his fun relationship with the students. I hate writing, but Zach made it so much better! Best professor I've had yet!
Amazing Professor! Very knowledgeable about he is teaching. His classes are really fun to watch. He is very patient and always willing to help. You cant go wrong picking him as your professor. You won't regret!
Zach is by far my favorite english teacher. There are 5 papers throughout the semester, no quizzes or tests. He is so interesting and intelligent. He grades on progress and how well you follow instructions, not skill. This was my favorite class.
Zach was a great professor, I really enjoyed taking his class. He was always very helpful when I had questions and would give great feedback. Class was fun and always came with a good discussion. He really teaches you how to become a better writer and it helped me in my other classes. He is a fair grader, I got through the class easy.
I really appreciated Zach's help. He was so willing to work with each one of his students. As long as you put in the work he would work with you on your grade. You do need the textbook for this course, he has you write up a summary and answer a few questions for the chapters. You are also allowed to edit and resubmit essays! He's awesome!
Zach is one of my favorite professors. He expects alot and doesnt let you slide by with mediocre work. He has high expectations but is reasonable. Hes fun. I never skipped a day a class with him And always had a great time
Zach was an awesome professor! If you go and do the work you will get a good grade. He lets you redo papers and is very helpful!
He was an okay teacher but he was pretty harsh towards the end of the semester. Started handing out D's and F's Really disrespectful towards the end. I probably won't take him again...
Loved his grading style. Always answered emails. He took time to explain things to me, which I appreciated. I got an A!
Zach was SUPER helpful. He was always willing to help with a paper and even cancelled class some days so students could go talk to him about their papers all day long. He really cares about his students if they care. He is super flexible if the student is giving their all.
Zach is a good guy. If you withhold the typical student/professor relationship mentality, he is just a really cool guy that happens to know a lot and is teaching the class. He understands students, but he also understands what students are capable. It's a good mix.
Great class, only a few papers throughout the semester and he grades to your advantage
Professor Largey is a good teacher. He doesn't give a lot of papers to write (Only 3 - 4page papers and one 6 pager.) He has a way that he makes you write your papers that is a lot harder than normal english classes. Oh, and you won't need to textbook.
Zach was an amazing teacher. He taught in ways that challenges the way you think about English which is amazing for a general class. The way he set up the class made it so that every student could succeed if they tried their best. The papers were challenging, but he makes sure that you understand the assignment and have enough help. Thumbs up!!
Zach was a great professor. My class was small, only about 20 people and we all really got to know each other and to know Zach. He did a lot of group discussion-type things in class, but no actual group projects. He was willing to work with each student individually and even allowed rewrites on papers to get a higher grade. Only about 5 papers.
Great guy. Really cares for each student. I would take again.
Zach is absolutely AMAZING! He is so caring for every student in his class, and is super patient with everyone. He is hands down my favorite teacher at UVU. He knows his stuff, is absolutely hilarious, and makes you love english more than you do! If you're taking English 1010 or 2020, Zach is definitely the one to take it from!!!
Love this teacher! He is so personable and cares about our education. Believes in Pass or Fail so not too hard to get an A!
Largey was an amazing professor. He made sure to lay clear ground work for all of his papers, explained the material thoroughly and was always available outside of class for extra instruction. He really made me think and I'm 100% a better writer and student because I took his class. DEFTINITELY would take it from him again.
Zach does a great job at ensuring the students know what is required in class. There were 5 final papers due throughout the semester and they're 4-6 pages long. His expectations are realistic and gives you the opportunity to get an A through revisions.
Zach has amazing lectures that make complicated ideas feel simple, his grading criteria is really fair and straightforward. Overall he is an amazing professor, highly recommend.
Have you ever seen Dead Poet's Society? Well, Zach is EXACTLY like professor John Keating in that movie. I absolutely loved this class! He doesn't sit a read off a powerpoint but instead involves himself in hearing your opinion. He cares a lot about your work and helps you out the best you need. He encourages you to think outside the box! love him!
Amazing teacher. Definitely reccomended for those who actually want to something in class, not just do readings or papers. His style of teaching is different from others, he wants you to get to know the real world not just pass the class.
Probably one of the best English teachers I've ever had. He challenges you and makes you critically think. He is more focused on content and quality than grammar and length unlike all the other teachers I've known. He gives personalized audio feedback and will help you if you need it. Gives you a chance to re-submit and better your work!
Professor Largey was easily one of the most amazing professors I've had at this school. I took his summer block class and honestly wish I had more time to enjoy it. He really knows his stuff. He took us step by step on creating a great thesis paper and we got to choose a topic that related to our major. If I could take again I would.
Zach is an awesome teacher! If you are a first-semester freshman and are nervous about college classes I would definitely recommend taking Zach for English 1010. He's very clear about his expectations on each paper and is very helpful when you have questions. Best English professor!
I highly agree with all the 5.0 reviews. First semester freshman class and he was a phenomenal teacher
Zach is a great teacher, he is very reasonable. I've learned so much him this semester. Attendance is important, go to class, take notes and you do great. definitely listen to the feedback he gives you on your papers, they really help. Zach really cares about his students.
Awesome, awesome professor. Perfect balance of instruction and freedom. 10/10 would HIGHLY recommend.
Sometimes a little unclear with expectations for assignments online. But for a good reason; he tailors the class to the students. So assignments sometimes are different than on canvas. Talk to him about assignments in person. Also, I love his teaching style. He's a good mix of John Keating from Dead Poets Society and a highly Intelligent Professor.
Zac is awesome! Class was always fun and thought provoking. I got the textbook but never used it. I would HIGHLY recommend him and I would definitely take a class from him again. If you are ever confused about an assignment he is easy to talk to and he also emails back quickly. Probably my fav professor this semester.
He's alright. He's very specific and kind of picky about grading. He gives great feedback on your papers and gives you another chance to revise it for a better grade hopefully. You have to go to class every time or else you won't get an A.
He lets you revise as many times as you need to.
Zach is such a great teacher and all around solid human being. He cares about his students and actually cares about you progressing and learning something rather than just grades. He gives great lectures that are very interactive. As long as you show up, participate, and try on the papers you'll get an A.
Things were mostly fine, until the quarantine. Once we went online he completely ignored my emails and questions and graded much harsher. I went from having an A to a D+.
Professor Largey is very nice. He makes you revise instead of giving you a lower grade. It's easy to get an A because there are no tricky tests and he allows redos on everything.
For someone who had not done any academic writing in years Professor Largey's class was a great fit. This is the type of class that if you stay up to date on assignments (usually about 1-2 a week plus 4 papers) you will have no problem getting a good grade. He is very helpful and accepts editing on papers you turn in for a better grade.
Lets you revise paper for better grade and actually goes thru your essay and points out stuff to edit. Clearly describes and outlines how to write your paper, even writes a thesis. Used the textbook maybe 10 times for short answer response assignments. We mostly just worked on papers and a few short answer assignments. Overall, good guy & class
I LOVE THIS TEACHER SO MUCH!!! As long as you attend class you will get an A, he lets you redo essays as many times as needed, and gives good feedback with each submission. He's also willing to help outside of class, and with other items not for his class.
I took the 7 am class which was a mistake because I was late all the time and had points deducted. He was a very understanding professor which I really appreciated.
zach is the best! such a good professor and is always very helpful! you have to go to class or you wont get a good grade. you are allowed to revise all papers except the final paper. very outgoing and was always a fun class to go to.
Zach was an overall fun teacher. He gave audio feedback, which I really liked. Zach involved the entire class, even though it wasn't easy for all of us at 8 am. The papers are somewhat difficult, but he is really willing to work with you on improving them.
Professor Largey is super chill. He gives plenty of time to work on papers, unless you do not your work, you will get an A. There are only 3 or 4 papers throughout the semester and only 2-4 pages double spaced. Not lecture heavy but attendance is highly recommended to receive full points.
He is the best teacher I have ever had! He has a very positive attitude and very funny stories to tell each and every class period. Willing to work with you as long as you give effort.
This class was very fun to take. He was always prepared and gave good lectures. He was super chill when it came to grading. The work for this class was challenging enough but it wasn't overwhelming. He gives lots of time and accommodates to the students so work can be done on time. Would definitely take this class again!
Not hard class, minimal english assignments. Most days is just a discussion, you will have something due like once a week if that. He's understanding and wants you to pass. It really is like a pass or fail kind of thing but he gives you opportunity to rewrite and get an A. Good guy, safe bet for english
If you're looking to take an English class, TAKE THIS ONE! Very understanding, and finds a way to make class fun (as fun as an English class can be). You can tell that he actually cares, and wants his students to succeed. Lets you think for yourself, and most of the grading criteria is based upon just trying in the class. 10/10 recommend.
Zac was a lot of fun! I took him for both ENGL 1010 and 2010. He really cares about his students. The feedback he gives on papers is thorough and helpful. His philosophy is that of he's going to help everyone get an A. If you don't get an A it's because you just didn't do anything. Super fun class experience but attendance is mandatory.
One of my favorite professors I've ever had. He explains things in every way to help you understand. He gives you plenty of time to work on assignments and gives you a chance to fix mistakes. His class is fun to go to and you wont be disappointed if you take his class.
if you're having trouble deciding, just do yourself a favor and pick this teacher. -great feedback -very flexible assignment rubrics -helps you learn to do real research about topics you care about -relatively easy assignments and expectations if I could wake up at 6:30am more consistently I'm sure I would've gotten an A. great teacher.
This is an English class that i learned in. We never used the Textbook. Participation points are given out each day. Theres two 5-7 page essays, an oral presentation, and annotated bibliography thats due throughout the semester. He gives you feedback and tell you what to do to get an A, you can resubmit several times until you are satisfied w grade
Great professor. Always enjoyed class.
No quizzes! Just papers and discussions. Seems like a genuine guy.
Show up and do the assignments, and you will get an A. He is a genuine guy who wants what is best for his students, and is willing to help. If you hate english courses, you will at least not mind this one. Three papers all semester, he keeps them short too.
Zach is a great professor. He's down to earth and wants the best for his students. He knows the names of all of his students and cares about their lives. If you show up to class you will get an A. He allows for revision on each assignment meaning you can get an A on each paper you submit. I would 100% take this course again.
Eager to help! I really liked Zach. Chill and easy to talk to.
Great entertaining lectures. Gives more than enough time to complete essays. If you need to take this class for credit, this is your best option.
By far, one of my favorite English teachers. He's very funny, very understanding and gives a clear lecture on what he's looking for. He gives very good feedback and is always willing to help. it's one of those classes where you shouldn't take everything so seriously it's very chill. 10/10 would recommend
Great teacher, you will learn a lot. I have struggled with English since elementary school. Showing up every day matters, but if you put in the work, you will get an A. It's honestly sad when you have teachers as good as him and only have half the class show up. He is awesome
