Comment:

Doell is a really nice and helpful teacher. For the most part if you turn in all your work you will get a good grade. We had about 3 major essays and 2 short ones. Work consisted of 1 discussion a weeks with essays being due every few weeks. Meetings are not mandatory. If you are a decent student who turns in work you will pass.

Professor Doell is a pretty good teacher. I would take his class again. Mythology with him is nice, and he doesnt make it hard. It just depends on how you take the class.

There are reading journals after almost every meeting, and he holds high standards for your writing. I got a B in ENG1A with him, and even though it was stressful, it helped me become a better writer. I took 1B with him after 1A. The workload remained the same, but I was able to get an A. He can be rude at times, but gives quality discussions.

Professor Doell was really caring towards the students. Was really real with you and put things into a prospective of further developing your learning. Be prepared to do lots of work. Not busy work either, work that makes you think and put actually thoughts into work. I really appreciated all of his help and his class.

You have tons of essays and journals in this class. Only take this class if your prepared to put your all into it. Hes a tough grader so make your essays college ready. Make sure you use your time wisely because multiple essays will be due each day. I like that if you have an average of a B on your journals you are exempt from taking the final

If you're looking for an easy and chill English, he is not the professor. He gives out too much homework, it is stressful. A lot of reading is required. But, his grading is not that strict, he was never rude to me.

Professor Doel was so rude. I avoided participating because he makes you feel stupid and questions absolutely everything you say. The one time i asked him a question about a due date, he just laughed in my face. I felt humiliated. Rarely ever gives As on papers. Would not recommend him at all, there are better English professors at Delta.

He's a great teacher, has great sense of humor and is willing to help you learn how to write papers and understand critical arguments. Make sure you don't plagiarize without citing. Expect atleast 1 essay per month and about two reading journals (two pages long) per week to be due. Not a hard class, make sure you don't fall behind though.

i honestly did not like his method of teaching. he spends a lot of time talking bad about past students and assigns a crazy amount of work each night. Some times puts students down for asking questions or puts them on blast if they give an incorrect answer. makes me not want to participate.

Professor Doell is an incredible teacher! Lots of writing assignments, and reading. Keep focused and ask for help if you need it. He really wants you to succeed and do well in his class. Hands down my favorite class, can be difficult at times.; but overall AMAZING professor. Wish I could fit him in my schedule to take 1B with him.

You will have to read and write a lot. It's tough work however, if you complete the required number of journals, you can opt out of taking the final exam. I highly recommend doing this! The class is interesting as long as students participate in class discussions. Don't be afraid to talk or ask questions. I'm truly going to miss his class.

Lecturestudent reflection every class session. Doell grades by your progress. Most of the writing assignments are journals -- a sh*t load of journals. Can opt out of taking the final. Will engage in one on one discussions after class. Don't be afraid to talk to him. Pretty chill, but can be a bit condescending. Took his Eng 1A1B. Enjoyed it.

My friends have taken their english classes by writing essays on topics given by the teacher. But in this class you read novels, and write summaries. So take this class if you love reading. All it is, is discussing the novel the next day in class. Listening to other students reflect. He grades harshly, I can barely read his writing on my paper

PROF. Ed Doell is a great instructor. He always keeps you on task and will answer any questions you may have. If you can listen to instructions and comprehend literature at a moderate level, this is the professor to take. Eng. 1A -Jeremy

Half English half Philosophy in practice, Professor Doell is hands down one of the best teachers I've ever had. If you're ready to have your mind expanded, your writing skills sharpened, and your humanity to be explored, his class is the place to be. A++ teacher. I'm sad the semester is over!

Comment:

Extremely vague on homework assignments while extremely harsh on grading. Tends to have long pauses in his lecture because he wants people to finish his sentences or ideas on a brand new lecture no one has heard before. Overall frustrating.
