WRIT2 . Gilbert P 6 Months Ago

I have never received such incredibly well tailored feedback and I am a senior. prof. gilbert just knows how to guide students with their research and communication. His comments provide so much personalized learning and guidance. I also like how he discusses different university experiences to confront issues with race and class. Overall great.

prof. gilbert gives the most inredible feedback. I have never had anyone read my work so carefully and explain in such a thorough way how to improve. His classes are very research heavy but he guides you through it. I also appreciate how in his class about work he explains different university experiences as a way to discuss class and race.

WRIT105 . Gilbert P 11 Months Ago

I have taken him twice now and really appreciate the way he gives space and directions for students to pursue their interests. He's always helpful and if I have questions about a comment (they can get complicated) he clears it up. Sometimes I wished his class was a little more organized, but he also adapts and works individually with students.
