LING3B . Baker A D 8 Months Ago

There were only about 120 points in total, so every point is equally important. I just need to make up two more one-point homework for an A (he did not allow make-up). He graded essays and writings based on grammar rather than ideas (he even pointed out 7 places where I should place more commas). It is still an easy class

Nice professor. He will give each of you advice for essays and grade homework fairly. In class, he is humorous and patient. If you have any questions about class materials or essay, just ask.

Andrew is a caring teacher. He is not a easy grader. However, if you go to his office hour and talk about your essay, the score will be improved so much. If you do carefully on each hw, get an A is not hard.

Professor Baker is very kind. Although he might not teach you many "useful" skills in the course, and the course content repeate a lot, it is very easy to finish his assignments and get an A. LING class is all about getting a credit isn't it? Be careful: He likes art topic very much. Sometimes the essay topic may be hard to begin with.

He is one of the best professors. He is always patient and caring. I love this class, and my writing improves a lot too. Make sure you do the assignments based on his grading criteria. It's not hard to get an A in his class, but you definitely need to work hard.
