Reviews of professor Jacob Moore

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Moore is a cool guy. Instead of just straight lecturing, he tries to get students to engage in conversation and think more about what they're writing. He is a bit awkward at times, but if your class has people who don't mind talking and responding to questions you should be good. The outlines for essays are also long so start early.

He's a very awkward teacher but a nice guy. He grades hard on essays but if you put enough effort into it should at least make a B. Just show up and pay attention and ask for help and you shouldn't fail. You'll be fine if you just try honestly.

Hes a chill professor, he doesnt really care what we do in class however his lectures are super boring and doesnt really engage with the students. He is a tough grader.

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Grading criteria wasn't clear. He is super accommodating with absences. Very interested in what he is teaching and conveys it insightfully. Slightly awkward but nice and easy to understand. LOTS of reading.

He made it very clear what it is that is required. He also uses class time well, as almost each day I felt helped a lot in learning how to write better or at least do well in the essay we were currently working on. I would recommend him if you know you can keep up with the occasional readings and essay progress checks. Late work is also accepted:)

Mr. Moore is a great guy and super nice professor! He is not your typical outspoken professor but he does try his best to engage the class in meaningful discussion. I took his class during the Covid pandemic and his transition to online was very easy and I am super thankful for him and his ability to be so flexible with his students.

This class is a struggle to pass even if you write really good essays. He rambles on and on about things that everyone already knows like grammar and style of writing. Very nervous man. No clear grading criteria. You either pass or fail. Overall, dont take him if you want a B or less.
