Good
Professor Vonk is fair and big on the writing process. You are free to resubmit essays if you get a poor grade and he will give you feedback in return to help you. If you don't finish your work in time then probably you will receive a zero. No room for procrastination in his class. Be sure to communicate with him if you are having problems. Just explain yourself and he will be flexible.
Awesome
Prof. Vonk is amazing! I don't understand why some students are saying that he doesn't use the textbook and that he gives poor feedback. He actually uses it all the time and he gives great detailed feedback. He even gives us the chance to ask questions while we are writing in the lab. I'm an ESL student and I've never heard him say anything negative about us.
Awful
Professor Vonk's class is the worst. He never provided feedback and always said "That's what the tutoring center is for." He made us buy the book and only used it once. He laughed at esl students in a non professional way.
