Professor James is very caring and understanding. I took English 1-A with her online and it was the best! She is very easy to reach and her class is not overly hard. Textbook was not required as she provided the materials and any late work turned in you were given full credit for. One of the best professors!!

Comment:

Prof. James is a very nice person and wants her students to succeed. My only gripe was that there was no option for a diversity of opinion. She clearly has a political agenda behind her assignments that leave no room for deviation. Although the class was easy, it was pretty indoctrinating.

I love professor James class she was the easiest English "A" I ever received all you have to do is the work. She accepts late work and is very understanding when it comes to personal situations. If I could I would take her again.

I wish I could copy and paste professor James. When I took her class, I got really discouraged and eventually stopped doing assignments. Professor James reached out to let me know that she will be willing to work with me. Long story short, I ended up passing with an A. It was nothing short of a miracle and I'll be forever grateful.

I love this professor because she made English bearable during the winter session! She gives out interesting topics to write about and she goes the extra mile to help out her students. She is absolutely amazing at what she does. On the prompt essays, she gives out clear rubrics of what is needed to get a 'High Pass'. Overall, really great class.

I have put off taking english, until i absolutely had to, it was my last Gen-ED class. I wish i had taken it sooner after taking it with Professor James, she is so kind and she is always willing to help her students. She gave our whole class an extension on our final essay to make sure everyone was able to get it done. I loved this english class!

I hate English, like abhor it, and I think she's like my 5th English Professor at MVC/RCC. I genuinely loved her teaching style. She cares about her students, and understands life happens. As long as she see's you're putting in an effort you'll pass. Just be warned she loves group projects, and they can be exhausting.

Took professor James online during winter semester. I was challenged to keep up but only because of how fast-paced short semesters are. I cannot stress enough the amount of knowledge I left this class with. My only regret is not taking her face-to-face! A lot of writing, but it conditioned my writing skills like no other. Definitely recommend!

Best English Professor I've taken at RCC District online. Yes there is a lot of writing in this class, however, all of the writings are of great topics with civil rights movement, gender equality, and racial profiling. Not only will you learn about writing but also movements. Discussion posts, Lecture posts, and 4 essays is all this class consists.

Shes very understanding! She allows you to make up your absent days. There is quite a handful of readings but its not so much to where you have to cry. Im hoping to take English 1B with her as well.

She was really nice and understanding she gets life happens and applies real life to her lectures and really dissects everything for her students to understand. A lot of reading but as long as you turn in an assignment you can re do it before the semester is over as many times as you want so if you want an A you can get an A.

I took English 1B with Professor James over the summer session. I took this class with her specifically because I enjoyed taking the 1A class with her. This class was a perfect extension of the reading and writing from her 1A class. Professor James is caring and accessible outside of class. She truly wants to see each of her students succeed.

Professor James truly cares about her students and grades reasonably! As long as you do the assignments, she will not let you fail. Her classes tend to stretch out a bit, but attending class is very helpful.
