Reviews of professor James Puckett

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Thought of dropping the class early on, but glad I stuck to it. Professor Puckett is a really nice guy and seems to really care about his students. The readings are VERY historically-tied, so if that's not your thing, I wouldn't take his class. Lots of writing. Really, the entire course is based on your writing skills. Tough but fair grader.

He's a super tough grader, but also understanding. If you go to him privately and speak about your concerns he will work with you to make sure you pass the assignments.

If you have the choice.... DO NOT take his class it is not worth it he makes an english GenEd way too difficult.

Such a know it all. If it's not done his way it's considered bad and he WILL fail you. He failed me and followed me to the bathroom like a creep. made me sit through a whole class just to tell me at the end not to comeback all because I didn't follow his criteria.

Okay guy but bad teacher, he threaten to fail me because I had an emergency appointment and had to miss class. Not good at giving feedback, not understanding... doesn't teach, he will ask the class questions then sit there in silence for minutes waiting for someone to answer. says the word um over 100 times an hour

He is a very nice person but I don't think he understands that not everyone LOVES writing papers. This is a mandatory class for all students therefore I did not take it for fun. I think he is too smart to be a teacher, he does not understand why students make a simple grammar mistake. His comments on papers are very harsh.
