Student Comments

He is a really wonderful teacher and the way he teaches is very effective. He has defiantly been one of my best and favorite English teachers. He may seem a little scary at first and people may tell you how hard his class is but it’s not and you should be fine if you pay attention. Just know that his intentions are good.

You can’t really give tips to people for his class, because he tries to fit the need of each student.

Mr. Scott is hands down the greatest teacher I have ever had in my life, even if this class is a challenge.

It is Mr. Scott’s job to get you prepared for the next level of English. He does a fantastic job at that and even gets you prepared for life, by giving you the skills you can use for the rest of your life

In the end, you will enjoy the class and you will be prepared for high school and honestly be able to look back as I am now and consider English to be one of your favorite classes.

One thing that helped me get through the year was Mr. Scott’s high expectations for me: if I felt I couldn’t reach his expectations, Mr. Scott would not lower them but help me reach them.

All the work has made me realize that Mr. Scott is one of the best teachers I have ever had because he really wants all of his students to succeed.

You will hate this class, but in the end, you will realize how much you have improved as a reader and writer.

This class will get you so prepared for the future years of English. It is a really good class even though it may be hard and challenging at times.

[T]his class will make your eyes turn red and hands go numb from typing non-stop. English 1 will make you learn so many different things, but also give you major distress and anxiety.

Mr. Scott doesn’t care that it is the first week of school; he is going to start of teaching like it is the middle of the year.

You might be quite worried right now, reading all of the challenges that you will face this year, including the fight with procrastination and learning how to use Schaffer. However, you can not grow in writing without facing difficulties. So, trust me, you will have many challenges this year, but these challenges will form you into a better writer.

Welcome to the devil’s domain (you know what that is I don’t have to say it). Your hands now belong to the devil himself, at least you’ll have to sell them to him in order to keep up with all the writing assignments you’re going to have to do. If you think you’ve ever written anything before now, I’m confident enough to say that you haven’t. Be prepared for the most exhausting year you’ve ever had in English so far.

Mr. Scott will always be there to answer questions and to help you if you need it, but he will not give you everything. He teaches like a true high school teacher and in some ways like a college one.

English 1 Honors is a very difficult class with a lot of work, but if you put in the effort, you can get a good grade. Despite all the effort required, Mr. Scott’s English class teaches you valuable writing skills that you will need in the future. So fear not, my fellow student, you will come to appreciate this class with time.

Taking Mr. Scott’s class will help you thrive in your future English classes and help you be an overall better student. This does not come easily though you will have to work harder than ever before.

Mr. Scott is a great teacher that you will learn a lot from. His methods are somewhat different from other teachers, but are much more effective in my opinion.

Welcome to eighth grade English One Honors. You are most likely unprepared for what is in store for you.
