Reviews of professor Evan Gray

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Mr. Gray was awesome! We had essays every 1 or 2 weeks, but he was always pretty lenient in his expectations for us. Most of the time we were able to choose our essay topics and he let us really express ourselves in the writing. He seems like he actually cared about his students and he made class fun to go to (even though it was as 8 am!)

I cannot emphasize enough how great of a professor this man is. I took seminar in composition online because of the pandemic, and his class is so flexible and so well tailored for online. He gives amazing feedback on essays and discussion posts and is a very fair grader. Truly one of the best teachers I've ever had. He is so caring and passionate.

Absolutely loved my Lit class with Prof Gray. He was always more focused on actual learning, discussion, and practical approaches than rigid assignments. He was always listening to our feedback and really wanted everyone to succeed. No textbook, but requires lots of small books to be purchased (some are free as PDFs). Genuine caring guy.

Professor Gray is one of the better professors at Pitt! He knows his stuff and tells you everything you need to know for each text. Homework is weakly but very easy. I didn't even read most of the texts and still had no issues doing the midterm or any of the assignments. His class is very engaging. Highly recommend Gray to anybody!

I took Essays & Memoirs with Professor Gray this past semester and he easily has become one of my favorite professors at Pitt. He's so funny, treats you like an adult, sets you up for success and genuinely wants you to pass. He is just all around the nicest guy. There's a good bit of reading, but it's worth it.

Evan is a great prof! He has a lot of passion for poetry, and the class looked at poems/poets that mainstream courses don't usually discuss. He grades essays fairly and gives great feedback. In-class writing exercises really helped me understand the material, and helped when making the chapbook for the final project.

Evan is good professor that offers good feedback. His classes are not LECTURE style, so get used to talking. He grades fairly and is able to meet with you after class. I recommend taking his courses.
