Reviews of professor Corey Goergen

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Caring professor, but often unclear expectations and feedback. Forms a good relationship with students, but many feel they will not get the grade

I had Dr. Goergen for ENGL1102 (Topic: Satire and Society). Dr. Goergen is a hard grader and his class is work-heavy, but if you put the work in you will get an A. If you enjoy English, I 100% recommend taking his class. Every assignment is thought through and the readings and course content are extremely interesting. Definitely worth the effort.

Grading criteria was not very clear. Definitely go to office hours for more help outside of class. Topics are generally interesting.

Gives way too much work for what the class is worth, and comes across as arrogant and non-caring. Students are like a hassle to him. Unnecessarily tough grader. Grade seems more dependent on your relationship with him than your actual work content.

I took "Novel Minds" with Dr. Goergen. Course subject wasn't that interesting, and he assigned a lot of readings that we took pop quizzes on. Definitely not the right prof to talk if you want to cruise through the english requirement. Somewhat of a tough grader, he does expect quality work.

I really enjoyed having my final semester of English with Dr. Goergen. Class time was often used for fun discussions, and the few lectures we had were always relevant and interesting. I also really appreciated the Dr. Goergen was funny and chill, and genuinely cared about his students.

He's not bad but also wouldn't recommend. Not a lot of work but definitely more than other English teachers. I got an A in the class but I participated a lot and saw him outside of class. Tough grader but your final grade is totally subjective and based on your total effort and whether or not he likes you. I had many friends get a B in his class.

Amazing guy. Very understanding of personal issues. He made sure his students were well in the pandemic and extended deadlines for every single thing. He gives alot of stuff to read but you can just read summaries. Easy grading and alot of group work which meant an easy A. The only english class I have never worked too hard for. Hats Off!

Professor Goergen is very straightforward when it comes to grading projects and assignments. He will probably give you an A if you do all items necessary in a paper, he won't usually grade them based on the quality of your writing.

Dr. Goergen is a respectable professor who is very nice and relaxed. It's important in this class to be able to work as a group. His lectures are clear and well-done. I didn't read a single book during my class. My class "theme" was Accessibility and it was very interesting to learn about. Prepared to be uncomfortable, and be okay with that.
