Reviews of professor Richard Carr Jr.

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I enjoyed this class. Though it is a lot of writing, (30 pgs total 4 essays & some smaller assignments as required by the engl dept), the essay prompts were interesting & he makes it very clear what needs to be included to get an A. Attendance matters as it was a once a week class as well as some participation but its nothing you wouldnt expect

If you're decent at english, you'll do fine. (eng. is my first language, so it was fairly easy). He's occasionally flexible on due dates and notebook checks. If you respectfully participate and contribute to class discussions, you're most likely going to be on his good side. he is DSPS friendly too! very personable at times and gives good feedback

Takes the time to schedule one on one time with you to help you with your essays. You just need to talk to him and let him know if you are not going to be in class and he will be fine and tell you what you missed in class. 80% of what you will be doing is on Canvas.

Prof Carr is a cool person, but he is a tough grader and wants you to work really hard. I took this class entirety online due to covid. His lectures are boring, and it makes me fall asleep watching his zoom recordings.

Pretty average prof. Everyone complains about too many essays (4 in a 12-week course) but tbf it's an English class. HW assignments can be a little tedious but most of them are to prepare you for the essays, and he gives you plenty of time to do them. Doesn't grade too harsh but you have to make sure you put in effort and don't half-ass your work.
