LEARNER FEEDBACK
This is a sample of the feedback I've received teaching English Composition & Foundations in Writing and Rhetoric. I'm happy to provide complete course evaluations upon request.
Summer 2021
Starrla is always very organized and very positive. Excellent instructor! Assignment deadlines were well posted so there wasn't a question when they were due. I also enjoyed the lectures.
Spring 2021
English isn't my strong class but Professor Cray was very open to helping me improve my writing skills. One of her major strengths was she was very good at explaining what she wanted us to do in good detail. She also is a very kind professor which made her class even more enjoyable.
Fall 2021
I loved writing my essays and the topics were very interesting. I would also like to mention that with the additional assignment of journaling, it actually inspired me to continue journaling. It helps me express my emotions and write my thoughts.
Fall 2019
The instructor does a really good job explaining everything that is expected for this class. She is also very approachable, I have never been afraid to ask her any questions and she always gives a clear answer.

​I really enjoy the feedback of my teacher. She isn’t too harsh but knows almost everything that will help make the paper better.
Fall 2021
I took this class to get a goal area completed but instead ended up enjoying it. It was very manageable and challenging at the same time. I enjoyed the routine of it all because each unit had around the same timeline, first draft, peer review, second draft, and then final draft. This gave me a good idea in my head of what each unit was going to be about and I knew what amount of work I was going to have to do. I also enjoyed the labor-based grading system as opposed to getting docked points on small things. I was less scared to turn in an assignment than usual.
Fall 2021
She was very knowledgeable about the course matter, and she was always very good about clarifying and answering questions as well as showing that she cared about students' experience in the course.

Some major strengths of the instructor is her passion to care for her students and her ability to go the extra mile for them. I didn't see any weakness of the instructor! I thought she was awesome.
Spring 2021
The peer review sessions were super helpful, and really gave me a chance to talk to and bounce ideas back and forth from the other students.

​I have grown so much in my writing career because of Starrla Cray. She truly was great!

I liked the way the assignments are laid out. Doing the assignments to prepare for the upcoming paper really helps getting a paper starting. By the time you go to write your paper, most of the work is already done.

I loved all the feedback she gave on all of the assignments.
Spring 2020
I think she helped me become an overall better writer by the variety of different assignments she had us complete. She taught me to prepare before writing my papers and gather all the information I need.
