Comment:

Ferit is excellent at explaining things when he takes the time to fully encompass what he is talking about in speech. He does, however, often prefer to ask questions of students which are assume a level of high understanding. Not a bad thing, but be sure to read texts carefully before attending class.

Ferit is an excellent, knowledgeable teacher. Taking his classes inspires new ways of examining the world. I know that some students find Ferit intimidating, but it is important to know that it is just his way of making sure his class is taken seriously. He wants his students to engage, and he is actually very accessible if you need any assistance.

Comment:

The first few weeks of class I was a little intimidated. But by the end of the semester, I left his class with a new found interest in philosophy and a weird Ferit crush. Really, take any class you can from him.

Anyone should experience a class with Ferit. He is simply the most amazing, though hysteric, professor I had so far.

Fun, brilliant, knowledgeable, honest and caring. He cares about his students and will give you extremely useful advice. His classes are fun and enlightening. He is AWESOME! By far one of the best professors I´ve had. Take a class with him and you will not regret it. Seriously - what he teaches and the way he teaches it can change your life.

I joined this class thinking I would like philosophy, but I was proven wrong. Keep in mind Ferit was not the cause of this, it was the awful class discussions we had.

Comment:

The Turkish accent is a bit mystifying at first, but you get used to it quick. Otherwise he's a perfect teacher, and I heartily reccommend him. Even if you go to another school.
