Comment:
Professor Sutton is an absolute gem in the English department. I was never big on Shakespeare and since renaissance lit is a requirement for English majors, I said why not take his Shakespeare & Miami course. Boy, he makes Shakespeare accessible and easy to read. Picks plays and texts relevant to students. Amazing class and awesome discussions!!

This course covers the works of Edmund Spenser. Sutton assigns a midterm and final exam, two essays alongside those exams and a creative project. This semester he's been doing reading quizzes, but always bumps up the grades and they're worth a small percentage. Show up and pay attention and you'll generally be okay. He's always accessible and kind

Comment:
Sutton is very knowledgeable about Shakespeare and loves teaching. He cares about students and is accessible outside class. He gives a couple papers. I'm a bit salty because he assigned three finals on my class while throughout the semester we only had a midterm paper and just readings. No exams. Friendly guy though, never forgets his students.

I loved his personality, he endlessly interesting and the class is very doable. You will have to try on his essays, I suggest you take every single chance he offers extra credit. It may be 5 points, but those five points really help for the essays and tests. If you want a letter of REC, you have to get an A. I got an A- and I never got one.

fairly easy class, you can miss a few classes as well. readings can be a little difficult, but nothing the googled online summaries can't fix. not an easy A, but a guaranteed pass if you try a little

He is the most amazing professor at FIU BAR NONE, PERIOD, END OF STORY, END OF CONVERSATION! In the English department, he's the MAN! He teaches Shakespeare like no other. He's a challenge, don't get me wrong, but he's amazing. Sutton really cares. He genuinely loves his students. I was lucky beyond belief to have had him.

Amazing teacher. Interesting and keeps you entertained. Knowledgeable and loves class discussions. Study the plays well and you'll do well on the quizzes. Had him for the summer and it went by really quick.

Sutton was fine. That's it. Not good, not bad. He's pretty boring. The material was OK for the most part, but the Faerie Queene sucked. Scary at first with his tough sounding papers, but not that bad. I got an A- without reading one of the books. I did have to work for it, though. Looks just like Alton Brown! Talks about his kids a lot.

Sutton is a great teacher. Anyone can tell you that, but I have a few peeves about him because he will encourage discussions that involve students relating to their own personal experiences. He also has his 'pets' in many classes and even has a clique. With all things considered he is a great teacher but don't expect to be entertained for the entire class.

He is by far the most knowledgable professor that I've had. He makes the class fun and extremely interesting. If you are an Enlish major I recommend that you take at least one class with him. The class consists of 2 papers and a couple of quizzes. He is a fair grader and allows you to improve your work if you're unsatisfied with the final grade.

I took a class called Spenser and I really can't imagine anyone else teaching it. Every class he brought a level of enthusiasm that I really can't imagine being outdone. The course is by no means a walk in the park, but as he assured us, people get by his class.

Awesome professor! I would recommend him 100%. I really want to take another one of his classes, but he's taking a year off from teaching to write a book. His classes are fun, entertaining, and interesting. 2 semi-long papers, creative project, midterm, and final. easy papers cuz he grades easy; midterm and final kinda hard; project an easy A.

Class is pretty entertaining and he keeps things fun and light, although the material he teaches is tough. He makes the class seem harder than it is at first. Once you get through it you realize that it wasn't all that bad.

You've got to take him if you're an English major. I think I've learned more in his Shakespeare Comedies class than any other English class. He's not easy, but he's worth it.

Class was always fun. Get up there and act out some plays. Dr. Sutton is very insightful and helps students get a lot out of the plays. Tests are tough and he expects a lot from essays but it is worth the time spent. I would take him again.

By far the BEST Prof in the English department. He doesn't grade easy but he's SUPER interesting, sweet, engaging, and really really cares about his students. Do NOT leave FIU w/o taking a class with him!
