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.

Professor Page; the man, the myth, the legend! If the opportunity of taking his class falls into your lap, I repeat DO NOT let it pass you by! He was by far the best professor I've ever had not to mention funny, enthusiastic about the content, and genuinely caring about his students. My love for writing blossomed during my time in his class because I felt as if we were taught actual tangible tools to help us become better writers. I've been periodically checking class planner ever since to see if he added on any additional classes because I genuinely would love nothing more than to take one more class with him before I graduate.

Professor Page is a very interesting human being, ready to discuss topics outside of the classroom and able to provide an interesting perspective as well as be curious to what you can bring to the discussion. Absolutely amazing class (in Fall 2023, it was focused on Global Citizenship), and would recommend to take Dr Page's class to anyone for their ENGCOMP3 class!
