Comment:
Busby is incredibly passionate about literature and makes that very clear. She is a really nice lady and is willing to help you figure out your paper topics every time. However, there is a lot of assigned reading and if you aren't willing to do the readings, you should not take this class. If you do read, you'll do well in the class.

Comment:
Busby cares a lot about her students and is incredibly excited about the class and literature. Even if you don't like literature, she manages to get you excited about it. If you show your interest and that you've read, you'll do well. The majority of the grade is 4 papers, with a couple small presentations and attendance taking up the rest.

Professor Busby is a little overwhelming at first, but if you can write a paper you will be fine. She is a little scatterbrained but very passionate about her classes.

Amazing professor! You really need to read the texts for this class because her teaching style mainly centers around student discussion. She's very accessible outside of class, ALWAYS keeps her students updated if things change, and grades papers fairly quickly! If you take EN 216, expect more poems than prose. Overall, 10/10.

Comment:
She is a grad student getting her Ph.D. I dropped after the second class because I could already tell it would be harder than any other english. Take another teacher if possible. Too many readings and projects that I simply do not have time for since i am not an English major.

She assigns a ton of readings, so be prepared to discuss them in class! The readings are simple though. There were three papers and two exams. They weren't very challenging and she's very helpful if you have questions. I wasn't a fan of her teaching style but I enjoyed the class.

LOVED BUSBY. She is an amazing English teacher, and is so clear on her assignments and what she expects from you. She is SO accessible outside of class and is always willing to help you with your paper if you have any questions. While she is a hard grader, as long as you follow the rubric you'll be fine.
