TOP REVIEWS FROM ENGLISH COMPOSITION I
A superb course led by a fantastic teacher. A little long in the number of weeks it ran but all-in-all I'm very happy with the quality of information.
I wish it still had the intervention of the University or at least some of the Professors that have participated in it. But overall a great course with a lot of useful information and examples
This course is very valuable in understanding the nuances of writing. The peer-graded assignments are a wonderful way of improving oneself.
Very helpful for writers and future career writers. Plus the professor is extremely down to earth. Was not expecting that and I forgive her for being a Duke fan. Go Tar Heels!!!! jk jk
