David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A Anonymous 08/29/2024	Dr. Dave is the goat. Super nice and personable. He lays out all of his assignments in great depth. His class was listed as "blended learning" but that's just because he didn't hold discussion section and we just had to do a discussion board post each Friday instead. The class is only 3 writing assignments that build on each other and but they're all near the second half of the class so it does become more work as it goes along though.
David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A+ Anonymous 08/25/2024	Really easy class and very laid-back professor. None of the non-major writing assignments take too much time. There are 3 major writing assignments: the Stasis Report, the Toulmin WS, and the Final Essay. As long as you finish your work on time and put some effort into writing, you should get a good grade. He is also pretty flexible about due dates and pushed back some of them if enough people asked. There are occasional graded in-class activities, but those are on the calendar and he doesn't care if you don't attend the other classes. He gives out candy at the end of some in-class activities. He is very approachable and good at answering questions. He's just an all-around great guy.

David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A+ Wgervase 01/15/2024	Dr Dave is such a nice guy. He thoroughly reads rough drafts and gives you feedback on exactly what to do in order to get a good grade on the assignment. He rewards effort and time with good grades. A solid guy to say the least.
David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A+ Anonymous 12/22/2023	Dr. Brookshire wants to make sure you learn the key concepts so you'll succeed in college. The most friendly, passionate, and comprehensive teacher I've met so far.
David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/14/2023	Great professor! You can tell he really enjoys what he teaches and cares about his students. Attendance isn't mandatory but I highly recommend as he covers assignment descriptions and gives you time to work in class. Not a huge workload and he is very forgiving with due dates. He is very approachable and easy-going as well making it easy to talk to him after class or during office ours.
David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A mha25005 12/09/2023	Dr. Brookshire is the best! I strongly recommend taking his class. He's super flexible with due dates and understands that people take the class just because it's required. He makes the major writing assignments tolerable since you can choose your topic, and gives you plenty of time to complete them. Even with all that time, he sometimes pushed back due dates even further so there's no reason you would have trouble managing the work. He's a pretty easy grader, so as long as you put in a little effort and thoroughly revise first drafts you will do well.
David Brookshire ENGL394 Expecting an A+ Anonymous 07/02/2023	Dr. Brookshire is hands down one of my favorite English professors I've had. I took his business writing class asynchronously over the summer and the class content was really easy, he is lenient with due dates and is really considerate. His Zoom office hours were very helpful when it came to the big assignments. I highly recommend him!
David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A Anonymous 05/08/2023	Dr Brookshire is hands down my favorite professor. He cares about you succeeding and understands that students have more than one class. He wants you to get an A and makes it very easy for you to.
David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/05/2022	If you are able to get Dr. Dave, get him. He is very fun to have, classes, are enjoyable and he always provides a great perspective on a multitude of different topics. No textbook. Very flexible and wants you to succeed and have a good grade. I would highly recommend this class.

David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A Anonymous 05/16/2022	Easily the best English teacher I've ever had. I've never liked English as a subject and never liked going to English classes, but Dave made the class enjoyable to go to. He gives a lot of extensions which gives you a good amount of time to complete things. I would definitely recommend him for ENGL101.
David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A Anonymous 05/16/2022	Dr. Dave is the best english teacher I have ever had. I used to be terrified of writing but he makes everything very clear and makes the class fun. He is extremely accommodating and always pushes back deadlines to help his student. 100% recommend him for engl101

David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A+ Anonymous 03/09/2022	BEST PROFFESOR!!! I have never gotten an A in any English class before, and I received an A+ in his class. This was not due to him being an easy grader (although he was not particularly harsh), but it was due to how resourceful and helpful he was. I have never met anyone that cared for their students more. He is always available (and encouraging) for office hours, and will give you significant help with your paper. I hate English, but I am taking another English class just to have him again
David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A Anonymous 01/14/2022	I hate english. Well... hated. I was so afraid to take a college level english course because I dreaded writing all throughout highschool. But now I feel pretty confident as a writer and have a newfound appreciation for writing. Dr. Dave is so easy going and stress-free. He changed my outlook on english classes. Also he pushes back deadlines a lot which is a lifesaver. Take his class.
David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A Anonymous 01/11/2022	I’ve hated english all my life but Dr. Dave made it great. He always extended deadlines for papers, and always gave criticism in a logical manner. In this class, you will be choosing an unresolved issue and will be writing about this issue for the entirety of the semester. My only recommendation for this class is to choose an ongoing issue that you are actually passionate about, whether it be environmental, political, etc.
David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A+ Anonymous 12/23/2021	He is very flexible with assignment due dates and grades. He gives constructive feedback to all our essays. His essays are pretty straightforward with clear criteria. He makes writing so much easier to organize and helped me improve my writing. I am pretty sure that he gave out relatively fewer essay assignments than most other ENGL101 professors. His class is one of the few English classes that are blended. In his class, you only need to come twice per week, you have a short discussion assignment once per week. Like the earlier reviews have said, Dr. Dave is easy-going and approachable especially during office hours. I would recommend anyone to take his classes even aside from ENGL101.
David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/06/2021	This is a phenomenal professor. He is so flexible with grades and class attendance. He is fun and his office hours are so laid back. He doesn't waste time or your money! I didn't have to buy a textbook. His essays are definitely challenging but if you just talk to him, he will change the due dates to work with you. If you need a freshman professor, he's the best!!!!
David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A Anonymous 04/29/2021	As other people had said, love Dr.Dave's class. -He doesn't over lecture. -pushes deadlines all the time to give students more time work on papers -easy-going and approachable -flexible office hours -assignments are relatively easy (other than the actual big papers which just take awhile to do) -Some things I would say that aren't great about him is that he is a VERY SLOW grader. He takes forever to give back feedback. This can be annoying and stressful because the big papers you work on in this class have to do with one another. So he says he'll give back feedback on Tuesday and never does. Yeah would recommend and get put on waitlist (I was on waitlist I think I was #12 and ended up getting a spot so I would try it anyways)
David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/30/2020	GOAT. good luck getting him tho, gotta be quick. Man wants to work with the students, not work the students.
David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A Anonymous 10/19/2020	Dr. Dave is such a great teacher. He is so nice and accommodating to all of his students. I would 10/10 recommend taking him. He is so real and understands you have other things going on. He is easy on grading and is always giving out extra points for minimal assignments.
David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/21/2019	Dr. Brookshire is an amazing person. He truly understands that we are busy students with other obligations as well. His deadlines are fair and he works hard to be available for students during office hours and outside appointments. There's a lot of small grades throughout the semester that will help carry you when the real papers come. There were 2 long essays that we wrote in class with multiple activities that lead up to them to help us get the best grade possible. The 2 essays go hand in hand, so it wasn't so tedious. Also, we got to choose our topic, so it was more fun to write. At the end of the semester, we made websites out of our topics, which is a lot of work but it's much better than writing another essay. He is also one of the only professors that don't require purchase of the ENGL101 book, which saves you $100 !

David Brookshire ENGL101 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/23/2013	Dude is the man. Funny and easy grader. Go to class, participate, ask him questions, easiest English A you could ask for.
David Brookshire Expecting an A Anonymous 05/15/2013	I just finished his class this semester. Im surprised this teacher does not have any reviews. Honestly the most thoughtful and nice person. He really cares about his students and that fact that they might be in harder classes. Really wants you to learn and understand how to become a good writer. Highly recommend this teacher to anyone.
