He's the best! He gives substantial feedback that really work in your favor to help you improve as a writer. There's a few papers and a group project, all of which are incredibly straight forward. He's very approachable and helps out whenever you reach out to him. Put effort into your writing and he'll surely notice. Definitely take his class!

Professor Barton is one of the best professors I've ever had, and I despise English! He gives a decent amount of homework, but many of the assignments help you prepare for the three bigger projects. He's super responsive, a quick grader, and gives great feedback. Tests are fair, half multiple-choice and half essay. Cannot recommend him enough!

Professor Barton is awesome! I've had so many bad experiences with English, but once I got him for 111 (and finally passed) I had to take him again for 112. I love his teaching philosophy. He is a talented, caring, and effective instructor and I would recommend him for anyone who needs to take their core English classes at NOVA.

I took ENG 111 in 8 weeks. He keeps class interesting and a lot of the work was very engaging. As long as you follow the rubric (which is very clear) you'll get a good grade. He also gives 3 24 hour extensions on any assignments you want. He is overall a wonderful teacher and I would definitely recommend taking his class!!

I took this class as a humanities elective, but this professor made you work for the credit. He was an easy grader but assigned too much every Sunday which were time consuming, which was annoying because as I stated before this was an elective for me, I was taking other core classes on top of this elective. There was a midterm and a final.

Professor Barton is a caring and great at creating a warm and welcoming learning environment! He is inclusive, fun, provides excellent feedback, and wants you to succeed. As long as you try youre good to go! Really easy, but in a GOOD way! He wants you to learn and not die of stress. The easy rating is a thing of love from a full time worker!
