Reviews of professor Courtney Hopf

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Hopf is an amazing professor. She assigns interesting and thought-provoking (usually short) readings and the in-class discussions of the text are well-led. Since this is a writing class, there are three major essays and around 5 short forum posts. She gives a lot of creative freedom with her prompts and will answer any questions that you have.

Outstanding professor. Best class discussions I've ever had. Her class (Writing II, not I) shows you how to be a better person in order to be a better writer. Fair, pretty easy grader. Unique, engaging reading list that provokes a lot of good talks. Also, shes a wonderful person to reach out to if you have a problem with her or any other class.

Prof. Hopf was among the most wonderful professors I have had at NYU! She was always communicative and helpful in her feedback. Her teaching style allowed for significant growth in my reading, analysis, and writing abilities. The texts we used were varied, interesting, and relevant, and the class reignited a long-lost love of reading for me!

I took her Writing I and Writing II class and I can honestly say that her lectures are very lively - she knows how to engage her students in an academic discussion. In terms of her grading, you should definitely read her feedback because she explicitly states what she is looking for. Also, she is quite encouraging. I strongly recommend.

Courtney is one of the best professors I have ever had!!! She is insanely smart (and funny), leads such fruitful conversations, and gave me some of the most helpful feedback I have ever received on my writing. She is so passionate about literature and storytelling, and truly cares about her students. Literally couldn't recommend higher!!!
