Excerpts from student comments on my course evaluations:
"Dr. Weech provided specific feedback and constructive criticism on every (major) assignment that was turned in. I don't think I would have succeeded in this class without that. [...] I cannot emphasize the 'specific' enough. I appreciate the time he took to read each assignment and provide comments." (Technical Communication, Engl 2100, Spring 2024)
"Best teacher I have had so far over 4 different colleges. He knows the content and knows how to teach." (Introduction to Academic Writing, Engl 1010, Spring 2024)
"Professor Weech was always willing to help me and would make time for me. He gave several examples of what he was talking about in class and made it enjoyable and relatable. After we learned something in class Professor Weech usually had us practice using that skill. He gave me instructive feedback with kindness." (Introduction to Academic Writing, Engl 1010, Spring 2024)
"I appreciated being made to go outside my comfort zone and dip my toes into things that I would normally avoid. Dr. Weech made a conscious effort to get us to try new things and expand our mindset, and I ended up really appreciating it!" (Introduction to the English Major, Engl 2800, Spring 2024)
"He was very accessible outside of class and would give me additional help and feedback when I was struggling on an assignment. Professor Weech also made sure to relate to his students, which I really appreciate." (Advanced Writing for English Majors, Engl 3090, Fall 2023)
"The lectures were interesting and engaging. This was my favorite class of the semester and completely changed my view of writing." (Introduction to Academic Writing, Engl 1010, Fall 2023)
"Shelton's passion helps the course content become more exciting and easier to follow. The structure of the class itself is fluent and makes sense. I hope that Shelton continues to engage in this course with passion and humor, as it helped me remain encouraged and engaged with the material." (Research in Professional Writing, English 203, Fall 2022)
"Mr. Weech was a great instructor for this class, and you could tell he was really passionate about the subject. He was always available to answer questions and resolve any concerns that I had over assignments. His lectures made concepts easy to understand and implement." (Research in Professional Writing, English 203, Fall 2022)
“Shelton explains topics very well. He is easy to understand and makes the class more enjoyable for everyone as well.” (Multimedia Writing, English 419, Fall 2021)
“The environment is very safe and open to ask questions about class and reading material and learn about strategies to improve our usage of multimedia and multimedia principles. The activities and exercises are structured to support the ongoing projects and practice the principles learned in the course, which has been very helpful.” (Multimedia Writing, English 419, Fall 2021)
“I initially was not really looking forward to this class based on the title ‘technical writing.’ However, it quickly became arguably my favorite and definitely my most useful class of the semester. The projects are time consuming, but they feel meaningful and each is different leading to different learning outcomes.” (Technical Writing, English 421, Fall 2020)
“I don’t think any of the learning was sacrificed [in response to teaching changes due to COVID-19 pandemic]. I think the amount of work is fair. I was worried there would be a lot of busy work or the grading would be unfair, but it is not. Shelton really knows what he is talking about and I feel like I gained a lot from taking this class that I would not have learned anywhere else.” (Technical Writing, English 421, Fall 2020)
“Shelton is kind and professional. He is very willing to help students when they need and always gives useful suggestions.” (Business Writing Online, English 420Y, Summer 2020)
"Shelton is a passionate, humorous, and well-prepared instructor. He always gives personal experiences as examples. I simply enjoy listening to him speaking." (Business Writing, English 420, Fall 2019)

“I really liked that Shelton Weech took the time and carefully reads and comments on assignments all the way from the first assignment till the last. He never degrades your work but always suggests areas of improvement.” (First-Year Composition, English 106, Spring 2019)
“Mr. Weech shows that he cares through all of his interactions. He provides valuable feedback and always surprises me just how professional he is.” (First-Year Composition, English 106, Fall 2018)
“I really liked the systematic order of the essay assignments. The way each one built off of the last one really helped me to understand how to write better.” (First-Year Composition, English 106, Fall 2018)
