- **ENGL 207 · 4/5 · 2023-04** — ENGL 207 with Syrine Hout is a great course with a reasonable workload, as long as students pay attention and put in the effort.

- **ENGL 207 · 4/5 · 2022-08** — When ENGL 207 is taught by Syrine Hout, it's recommended to take it with her.

- **ENGL 207 · 4/5 · 2022-08** — If ENGL 207 is offered by Syrine Hout, students say to go for it, preferring her section over the alternative.

- **ENGL 207 · 4/5 · 2022-04** — Syrine Hout is a great lecturer for ENGL 207, with interesting material for poetry lovers; the class had three online papers, and she pushes students to think outside the box. She is a bit picky with grading, though, so the highest grade attainable is an A (no A+).

- **ENGL 207 · 2022-07** — my favorite course of all time. the class discussions are always so interesting and the prof is amazing and is enthusiastic about teaching the material. I wish I can retake this course. writing the papers is not exactly easy but it forces u to think outside the box for once.

- **ENGL 207 · 2021-11** — Such an interesting course and all you have to do is read the poems assigned for each week and write three papers. The papers are easy if you know how to write a good argument.

- **ENGL 207 · 2020-04** — She was one of the best courses I've taken so far. She's such a great professor and the course is cool. 2 tests and a final which are fairly simple just an essay. Weekly readings that are mostly poems and if not then short stories. Highly recommend this course

- **ENGL 207 · 2020-04** — No workload but not very high grades

- **ENGL 205 · 2020-04** — Great instructor and an easy interesting course

- **CVSP 208 · 2019-08** — I didnt even buy any book. Focus in class, take notes, laugh at her jokes and easy 85

- **CVSP 208 · 2019-08** — Definitely Syrine!! She's so fun in class and doesn't require that much of workload, and you can easily get 80s and 90s

- **ENGL 207 · 2019-08** — Eng 207 with Syrine Hout was one of the best courses I've taken so far. She's such a great professor and the course is cool. 2 tests and a final which are fairly simple just an essay. Weekly readings that are mostly poems and if not then short stories. Highly recommend this course
