Reviews of professor David Golden

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
His grading criteria is very clear. HWs and Quizzes were all OL and were pretty easy. He does give extra credit work. Aside from the online work, no finals or midterms, but grades are based on 3 essays. He provides all the help he can give to better your essay. Answers any questions you have right away. Great teacher.

Very easy course if you can write fast and efficiently. 3 essays, 2 based on your own experiences relating to assigned book. class times are short besides lab time w/ a partner. can post topic you are thinking of for his review. offers rubrics for grading, not mandatory.

Only 3 essays, no homework, but a harsh grader. Will mark you off if you choose a topic that he personally doesn't like among other things.

Professor Golden was honestly a good Professor to have as my first semester I college. It was an 8 week course and we did 3 essays in total also he does grammar homework (which are pretty easy). If you do the essays and homework, for sure you'll pass. He's very out going and a funny person. Would recommend!

I took Dr. Golden's 8-week hybrid class. I can honestly say his class was really easy and he doesn't put a lot of work on you. It's 3 essays along with tutoring/discussion with a classmate for each essay. All 3 essays are about 1 different chapter within 1 book. He gives you a good amount of time for each essay as well! He's also really helpful.

Professor Golden is by far my favorite English teacher I have taken at CSN. I took his 4 week summer class, and it was three, five page papers. Professor Golden has clear assignment expectations to set you up with success, and his feedback is very helpful.

I took this class online for my summer course and let me tell you, Dr. Golden is awesome. Very specific on what he wants on your paper. Overall, you have 3 essays which he gives you extra credit if you use the writing center. It's pretty easy and he is accessible via email. Also, he doesn't require any textbook. I would definitely take him again!
