WRIT107B . Krut R M A Month Ago

Prof Krut has been my favorite professor so far at UCSB! His assignments were helpful outside of the classroom. (Resume, cover letter, email, tact letter) and a final business group project. He really cares about his students and gives very meaningful feedback. Would take the class again and the workload was manageable and I enjoyed his lectures.

WRIT105C . Krut R M 1 Year, 1 Month Ago

Class is graded on participation and three essays. The three essays are the three different units for the class and a lot of consideration is put into the classwork done to help prepare you for the essays. He gives amazing feedback to help you grow as a writer. Even as an 8am class, he brought in amazing energy to keep you entertained.
