Quarter: Fall 2019
Grade: A+

The class was much easier than I expected it to be. Instead of the previous years where the course material focused on travel, her theme changed to dystopian fiction and resistance. The class revolves around reading The Handmaid's Tale and watching the first season of the adapted show, and interpreting both within the themes of resistance.

The first essay, worth 30% of your grade, has to be a minimum of 5 pages, and focuses on using an outside text from the course reader to interpret THT as the book. The second essay, worth 50% of your grade, (min 6 pgs), interprets the show. The rest of your grade is participation, which is also graded based on the reading comprehension quizzes that you take (she lets you use whatever notes you take, they aren't hard and she's lenient on grading) as well as 2 group projects analyzing Get Out and Blackkklansman.

Overall, the class is not very difficult. If you pay attention in class during discussion and take notes on the concepts and analysis based on resistance, you will do fine. Her quizzes test very basic plot points from the book/show; she never asks any trick questions. For the two essays, everyone gets the chance to get feedback from a rough draft and she also reads your revised draft afterwards and gives you more suggestions, so you know exactly what she is looking for before you turn in your final drafts. She also offers many extra credit opportunities throughout the quarter in the form of homework essays and some art projects at the end.

Selling all the material needed for this class! Took it Fall Quarter 2019 and have the following:

COURSE READER (ORIGINALLY $50) = $20
ON TYRANNY = $3
THE HANDMAID'S TALE (BRAND NEW)= $5
SIGNS OF RESISTANCE by BONNIE SIEGLER = $5

Message me at ********** if interested!

I enjoyed the subject material of the class, which was on signs of resistance. It was a lot of reading, and you need to make sure you have a Hulu subscription since we watched The Handmaid's Tale television series as well. She grades kinda hard on papers but encourages everyone to participate in class discussion. Grade percentages are:

Paper #1: 30%
Paper #2: 50%
Homework Essays/Quizzes/Class Participation: 20%

So you can tell papers are most of your grade. Homework essays and quizzes are really easy, just take good notes and most of the time she ends up giving you full credit on them (she doesn't do percentages for this portion, its based on checks and check pluses. She normally gives us check pluses) so I wouldn't really stress too much about this portion. Just make sure you work REALLY hard on the papers and do not procrastinate by any means. She schedules a paper conference before every big paper submission but if you need more help I would really recommend going to the writing center or scheduling another meeting with her/another tutor. Get a few pairs of eyes to read your paper before submitting it.

We did a couple group projects which weren't hard at all. We watched Black Klansmen and Get Out, which were both really great films. Not difficult at all.

I'm selling the course reader for $40. The course reader has no notes or highlights but the cover does have small folds (nothing big). If you're interested, text ********** (:
Edit: Already sold it!

The theme of this class was about travel. Overall, this class isn't difficult or time consuming. Professor Moe is very understanding and truly wants to see your truest potential. Although there are times when class can be boring, it's overall helpful and really does make you think in depth about certain topics that you don't usually think about. Her class consisted of many short readings from her course reader and short quizzes.

Selling the course reader for this class for $34 ($20 cheaper than store price). Email ************* if interested.

Things to know about this class:
- The subject of the class is travel and tourism.
- Grade is based on participation in discussions, reading quizzes, occasional (short) homework essays, and two 5-6 page papers. You will get to submit a draft for each paper and you have more than enough time for both of them.
- There will be an in-class quiz on almost every reading. They're open note, so if you take good notes as you read they're easy.
- You and a group will have to visit an iconic L.A. hotel of your choice for credit. I was skeptical at first, but it's actually a fun assignment. You basically just hang out in a hotel and pretend to be a guest for an hour.
- You will watch 5 movies, mostly on your own time but partially in class: North by Northwest, Ninotchka, Get Out, Human Flow, and Grand Budapest Hotel.

Overall, an easy and pretty entertaining English class. Even if you aren't super passionate about the subject, you get to read some good pieces and watch some good movies without much work outside class.

Dr. Moe is so nice and helpful in class! Her Eng. Comp. 3 course only consists of two essays and additional one-page homework essays on top of that. Both of the essays require you to combine movie themes with the ideas of articles that you read as part of homework. there are always reading quizzes that accompany the readings, but as long as you actually did them, you should be fine.

Also, I'm selling the course reader (about Travel and Tourism, just noting in case her class changes). Just email me at *************

She's intimidating only if you do not participate in class. She really wants to know your opinion and hear you speak, definitely a must in her class. Overall I would say take her class but be prepared to participate, also the reading is VERY doable.

Relatively easy class, though assigned movies and articles could get a little bit long (she assigns one video and two article assignments every week).
Essays were pretty straightforward, she didn't grade too harshly.
A little strict with ensuring that you have your course reader and/or articles printed out.

The topic when I took this class was travel. The class was fair and interesting if you did the readings and participated in discussions. She'd usually assign 1 reading each class and have an open note quiz on it the next class, so you have to do the reading. She also assigned homework essays every once in a while but those are only 1-1.5 pages. We had two major essays where we would turn in a rough draft first, have a meeting with her to discuss it, then turn in a final copy at least 5 pages long. A lot of the class and writing is connecting readings and ideas. Then, for the last thing, we had to visit a hotel with a group and watch a movie and present to the class on both of those.
