Reviews of professor Henk Rossouw

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
He has been my favorite professor so far. He has great background knowledge and knows what hes talking about. He is also super funny and laid back. He is always ready to help and loves his students. You will use the books everyday so they are a must. Also attendance is mandatory you can miss 3 days .Take him if you can!!

I absolutely love this proff. I'm not even finished with the semester but we are half way through and it has been a breeze. He makes sure that you understand what is going on but also respects student's ideas and thoughts. Despite being online due to covid he is very flexible and understanding. 10/10 recommend.

there's only 2 short papers to write (500 words) and he grades on making your point clear rather than grammar and format. the midterm and final are in class essays. makes the class enjoyable. very chill and knows that we have other classes so he doesn't give too much work

Dr. Rossouw is one of the best English professors I have ever had. He truly wants you to succeed and allows extra time on papers, if needed. He always gives great feedback and loves participation. ENGL319 was Modern Poetry and if I could take it again I would. Assignment wise you do weekly assignments and have two papers, not difficult at all.

Great professor! I had two papers for the whole semester. He allowed extra time on both. He is very understanding.

Just a great professor overall. If you can take this class for a literature credit, do it.

As my time as a student comes to an end at UL, my only regret was that I didn't take more classes with Henk. He is, without question, the best English professor I've ever had. He is passionate about poetry, incredibly helpful/insightful, promotes great discussion, and overall understands that school is more about learning as opposed letter grades.

Henk was fantastic! This was my first poetry class and I felt so heard and welcomed. He creates a safe space for all of his students and his passion for his job really comes across in his teaching. I would take him a million times over if I had the chance because he is such a wholesome person! 10/10 would recommend.
