Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Raines is a very good professor if you want to further your writing skills. He always keep track of each and everyone of his students and does not give very much homework. He grades moderately and will help you with any questions you have.

Quite possibly the best professor in ENGL 1301. He is extremely understanding with any deadline and really brings the life to writing. He's very sweet and fun and very approachable, which makes him an amazing professor. I've heard some people say his comments tend to seem a bit mean, and I sort of get it, but only because they're straightforward.

One of my favorite professors. He is a very intelligent and caring man, passionate about his career. He always makes time for students and attempts to ensure their success. He tries to be lenient and willing to work with students, so don't be afraid to reach out for anything, even if you just wish to talk about similar topics. Highly recommended!!!

Dr. Raines is one of the chillest and nicest profs ever. He wants you to actually think about things and the world. He's flexible on deadlines and is thoughtful. He tends to monologue during class, but I didn't mind it because that meant I didn't have to work lol. Do the work on time, and you should be fine.

He's cool and all but to be honest during his classes he does lecture a lot of good knowledge. For the textbook, he refers to it a lot but I barely used it. Attendance is graded. You have 3 major essays which aren't easy but you know they're essays yet he grades.. like very in detail if you know what I mean. So do really good on the last essay!!
