Dumbs alot of his material down, but it's an intro English course, right? He's clear, easy to understand, organized, funny and did I mention ADORABLE? I absolutely love him! It's a pity that UT stole him away from us. We Arts people need more fund

not insightful? c'mon...i've learned more in this class than in most of my 300/400 level. yes there are lots of definitions but it is a 200-level class. you gotta appreciate his sense of humor.

Comment:

He is sooo repetitive! He defines the easiest words as though he were teaching at an 8th grade level, and half of his definitions aren't even correct because he tries to dumb them down too much! And not insightful at all. How does he have a PhD?

Comment:

Best Prof I've had so far - he is amazingly well-structured in lecture but manages to get in some sarcasm. Class is interesting and if you don't think so, just go to appreciate Chill in his impeccable dressing and making fun of Alberta. Hot, indeed.

Comment:

Impeccable dresser. Support this man in his crusade to revive the 3-piece suit as "everyday wear". Biting wit and a penchant for board games. Every minute with him makes the rest of the world seem duller.

a really uptight prof. He has his TA's grade really tough, and won't give you a point extra. Between the material and the drab lectures, canadian prose fiction was the most boring class i ever took. he doesn't seem to like teaching/students.
