Richard Reynnells ENGL390 Expecting an A+ Anonymous 05/08/2024	Dr. Reynnells is approachable, friendly, and understanding. He is very open to comments about improving the class (it's 2 hrs 40 mins so it is often long and boring) and understanding of students who need an extension. As long as you do the work, show up to class, and pay attention to his directions, you will have no problem getting an A. He also offers lots of extra credit, so you can build a nice buffer in case you don't do well on an assignment. The ease of this course is well worth the long night class.
Richard Reynnells ENGL390 Expecting an A+ Anonymous 02/18/2024	I've literally never written a review but I just had to for Dr. Reynnells. He is one of the most approachable, understanding, and chill professors I've ever had during my time at UMD. All his assignments are not only incredibly useful in advancing in your professional career (ex. resumes, cover letters, letters of recs, proposals, etc.) but he also allows you to resubmit your work after you receive a grade/ feedback to earn points back. He is also someone who is willing to sit and talk to anyone who may be going though a tough situation and is incredibly accommodating and understanding. He is one of the few professors at UMD that I have been able to develop a connection with and he truly wishes to see all his students succeed! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

The content is also super pointless for any moderately competent writer, but that's not his fault, most of the assignments are mandated in some fashion by the department. But, you will get an A. Pretty much impossible not to as long as you put in like 10% effort to the class.

Just do the assignments and you will at least get a B. Only down side is that his class is long and just him talking about his slideshow. JUST TAKE HIM!!

While he is great, the class is such a disrespect to to everyone's time. The class isn't hard but the assignments are so unhelpful and unnecessary. Not to mentioned, the class is about 3 hours long for no reason what so ever. Something that can be said in 5 minutes gets dragged for an hours. Hate the content of the course but loveeeeeee the professor. He is the most understanding and compassionate person you will ever meet.
