He was a great teacher. He is VERY organized and to the point. I have never had an issue with him. Hand in all the papers. He reads the papers over with you and tells you what to fix. His papers are not difficult. Take him you will not regret it.

Comment:

He scared me the first day because his syllabus is like a book! After some initial uncertainty, I'm glad I stayed in the class. We started with review of grammar and punctuation, and we looked at brainstorming and outlining - things I never liked doing. But now I see value in it. He's a very good professor, and he actually cares about helping.

Comment:

Mr. Forcinitos syllabus is very specific and he does mark off for grammar mistakes. Imagine that! His grading system is fare because his syllabus describes what each grade is for read it! Maybe if people payed attention in class instead of acting like they know evrything than they would pass. Some people are just looking to blame someone.

Comment:

Treats students like highschoolers and has a biased grading system based on personal opinion rather than actual correctness. For example, taking points off for using conjunctions just because he doesn't like them.

Comment:

I took professor Forcinito for a Brushup course. He really helped by explaining just what professors are looking for in essays. He also explained the multiple choice test with examples and a practice test. I felt ready to do both tests and I passed! I checked his ENG101 class for fall, but it's closed. I would take a class from him again.

I agree with the previous posters in that Mr. Forcinito is a good teacher. He is meticulous as far as due dates for papers and attendance. I like the way he explains things clearly and the way that he has us brainstorm together in class. That is really helpful.

Took him for an English Brushup a few weeks ago. He explained everything about the retest and gave us a ton of practice and tips. I aced the retest and am going into EN101! No BS.. Just straightforward and helpful. Tried to take him for EN101, but his class is closed. Hope he teaches 102!

Comment:

From the first day, Mr. Forcinito made clear exactly what he expected from students. His syllabus is very clear and complete. I am learning a lot about my writing technique, and if you are serious about doing your work, take him. If you are into "goofing off" and not coming to class, don't waste your time.

Cmon! Unbelievable! Do your work people and stop the excuses. Some people think they can just swing by without doing the work or coming to class. What a joke! STop complaining and come to class and LEARN! I know people who missed a lot of class and they got dropped. Good! Try handing in a assigmnent once in awhile!

Don't take him and try to hand anything late. I handed one paper TWO DAYS late and he gave me a D!!! My friend told me take his class because he was nice, but he's got all these rules too much. I work alot but he don't care and he dropped me for missing classes. Not fair and I have to take it again.

Good Prof. Really explains things clearly. Why doesn't he teach EN 102? I need to take that next, and I'd recommend Professor Forcinito if he taught it.

He's got a lot of requirements, and the syllabus is long. But I know what I have to do to pass the course. He talks a lot too, but he's funny. I like the way he explains the assignments because he's clear and specific. So far he's a good teacher.

Very professional, easy to understand professor. Made me feel like I could actually write an essay from the first class. My brother took him for a brush up course, and he learned more in three days than a whole year in senior English class!
