Reviews of professor Linwood Stevens

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I would NOT take this professor again. I do not mind working hard for a class, but instructions were not clear, very tough grader, and overall I was very confused during this entire class. Feedback was not helpful and most of it made no sense. If you are not a very strong writer DO NOT take this class. He is very nice though just doesn't teach well

He gives very good feedbacks and nice. There are no exams; however, there are 4 essays to write through semester, and you have to write essay about your major. Write to inform(3-4 pages), write to analyze(4-5 pages) write to persuade (6-8pages), and final exam essay (3-4pages). Also there are writing assignment every week 200 words minimum.

The best professor I have ever had. He gives great feedback and is all around an amazing person. Taking him again Spring semester. Can't recommend enough!

Grades way to hard its ridiculous even when corrected by receiving feedback I was still given the same grade . An English class should not be graded like its a STEM course .

Writing has always been enjoyable until I took this class. Mr. Stevens is a very tough grader and his instructions are not clear. He cannot take a joke and does not have a friendly side. I met with him many times about different issues and he was not accommodating at all. I strongly do not recommend taking his class.

Has no empathy whatsoever. Very tough grader and SUCKS at explaining. Half the time I didn't know what I was doing and had to ask other students. Email him? Forget it, he'll answer you back only if he wants to. Make sure you read the ALL syllabus or else you'll probably fail. Though grader and no makeups. What you get is what you get.

He is very so/so - not terrible but also far from great. He is a fairly harsh grader and also is not super clear about what he expects from you for each assignment. He also is not the best communicator.
