Prof Page is a very kind person and a great teacher. He is very passionate about the stuff that he teaches and makes it a point for everybody’s voice to be heard. He encourages participation but doesn’t really pick on people unless he knows that you have something to talk about (because he sat in on your group). The theme of the class was “Democracy, Pluralism, and the Public Sphere,” so there was a lot of political talk but it was very interesting. The grade breakdown is as follows:
5% Diagnostic Essay
20% Analytical Essay
5% Annotated Bibliography
30% Argumentative Essay
10% Multimodal Presentation
10% Discussion Forum Posts
5% Reading Quizzes
15% Attendance and Participation
The diagnostic essay (~500 words) is graded on completion and effort. The analytical essay (~1,000 words) is on a certain topic assigned to everyone. The annotated bibliography, argumentative essay (~1,500 words), and presentation are all connected and based on a topic of your choice. There were six discussion forum posts and were all easy to answer and graded on completion (and he did read and comment on some of them). The reading quizzes were a little tricky in my opinion, even when I did the readings. It was very easy to get a point knocked off, but the lowest score was dropped (there were three). The workload for this course was very manageable.
Overall, I highly recommend Prof Page for Eng Comp 3/3D. He is very understanding of personal circumstances and provides good feedback. The only con I can think of for this class is that he does not give 100s on essays and his grading can feel random at times. The highest grade that he gave on essays was a 95 (from what I saw from grade distributions on Canvas). However, it is still very possible to get an A in the class with enough effort. Again, I recommend this class!

Incredible professor, I loved every minute of his class. Going into the class, I felt like I already knew the concepts that he taught about, but through the quarter he refined my understanding and helped me grow as a writer. I was sick some days and he was very understanding of my circumstances and emailed me the coursework fro the day personally. FRESHMAN, I STRONGLY TAKING THIS CLASS.

I took ENGCOMP 3D with Dr Page but there was no page for that course so thought I'd add on here.

I was absolutely dreading writing going into this class but one thing I can definitely say is Dr Page made me fall in love with it again. I learnt how to truly write and could actually see a visible improvement in my skills over the quarter. The workload was never awful, there was one or two readings per week (a couple of pages max) followed by discussion posts for each. He was always accommodating, even when a student forgot about a discussion post deadline, he would reopen it so that we could submit it. He is really engaging and the class structure helps you get to know others in your class as well. I would highly encourage anyone having to take Writing I to take it with professor Page. You will learn so much and actually enjoy learning it!

This class was so great that I requested to get this professor a site on Bruinwalk. Professor Page is very interesting and engaging, and he very clearly cares about the content he's teaching. The workload is basically discussion forum questions for each reading, and either a small writing project weekly or medium-sized writing projects bi-weekly. These projects seem daunting and large, but I found that I got the best results when I just started writing and went from there. Starting your work early and reading the textbook is the key to success, but he's pretty understanding when you need an extension for anything. Professor Page makes a significant effort to know a little bit about everyone in his class, and the way he incorporates our personal differences into his lectures about personal identity is very well-done. He's my favorite professor I've had at UCLA so far, and he will give you explicit direction about how to improve your work while understanding that everyone starts on a different footing. His classroom environment is perfect for meeting and making new friends, and the final writing assignments include a movie analysis (Moonlight, for us) and a slideshow about current events regarding diversity.

TLDR; Page is funny, relatable, enthusiastic, well-knowledged, and very understanding with his classes. I cannot recommend him enough, and he seriously has me considering pursuing more writing as a CSE major.

For English Composition 3 and 3D, TAKE PROFESSOR PAGE! He's super clear, accommodating, engaged, and helpful. I heard horror stories about other English professors and I'm so glad I didn't relate to any of that.

This professor is AMAZING! Our topic was Global Citizenship and Professor Page made it so enjoyable! You can tell he genuinely cares to hear your opinion and is great at facilitating discussion. We had 3 essays, and a couple were back-to-back so it felt like a big workload at certain times. Especially as someone who feels they have to perfect something. Nevertheless, I now consider myself a citizen of the world! I would take this class with this professor again and again!! :)
