Comment:

Only go to class if you have quizzes. Didn't have to take any notes and there is no textbook or exam. Lots of easy marks on quizzes and he's good with helping at office hours. Only negatives are that he talks way too much and his communication skills aren't the best so make sure you check the syllabus.

Comment:

Prof Glenn is one of the most enthusiastic professors you'll ever meet! He loovvesss literature and teaches it extremely well. Super easy class, no final or midterm and most quizzes are take home. Doesn't mind you giving in late assignments (but you do need to give in the assignments). He hates it when you forget to bring the material he asked for.

Comment:

he focuses on films quite a bit and it refreshing given the numerous years we spend in english reading novels. Very easy marker and asks for only so much on the quizzes that you can take home. Also, he constantly says he is not a due date fascist. Great guy, i recommend.

Comment:

Easiest ENGL1205 course you could take. Watch a bunch of movies, no tests just take home quizzes, and no final. I felt like I learned lots but did no work for this class. Very laid back and you could hand something in weeks late and he would still take it. Cool guy.

Comment:

Glenn truly has a love for arts, as he shows (focuses mainly on plays, and poems). If youre looking for a class with an unorganized professor, minimal work (one essay, one PowerPoint, quizzes, and no midterm or final) and enjoy watching movies. Then you have found the right class. One great thing is that he explains topics thoroughly.

Comment:

Glenn is very into the arts and wants you to feel the same about English as he does. And honestly he's pretty convincing. His classes are quite fun and if you attend he breaks down every poem/play/essay down to the main points so it's all very easy to understand. In terms of the class it is very minimal work to get in the A's

Comment:

I honestly came on here to see if people had the same opinion about Glenn as I did while taking the class, and I am shocked. I found him to be SO scattered, all over the place, unclear about marking criteria, and just plain rude. Yes, he is hilarious and extremely passionate, but I cannot cope with his unorganizaton. I'm an A student, I got a B-.

Glenn's one of my favorite profs ever! He made the material very easy compared to most of the profs. Glenn is absolutely hilarious and helpful. Throughout the term we focused on watching movies & reading a few short stories. He always gave us a short summary of what exactly comes in the exam beforehand. TAKE GLENN YALLS WILL PASS!

Generally easy prof, super nice and funny. Will be pissed if you don't bring the poems/readings to class. Talks a lot, but it's a good thing. If you just listen and do what he says, should be an easy A. He was in the titanic.

Comment:

Terrific professor. Charismatic, entertaining, and approachable. This guy lives and breathes the arts. Despite some reviews of him I've been reading; he encourages you to bring your own ideas if you can make a good case. Heads up: if you show up to class without doing the required readings he'll be pissed.

Comment:

Professor Walton is enthusiastic about his subjects and wants his students to enjoy themselves and do well. He gives small reading quizzes and lots of insight into what will be on larger tests. One group project. If you pay attention in class and enjoy English you will do well. Likes it when you repeat his opinion back to him on tests and papers.

Easy course because it's fun! Made up of mostly small tests on readings, if you keep up with them you'll do great. Grade is from reading quizzes, one easy group presentation, a simple response paper and three analytical quizzes. Cracks a lot of jokes and keeps your attention. Be ready to watch a lot of movies and read a lot of poems!

Such a sweet man! Great passion for English and it shows through in his teachings. Funny guy, always interacting with students while lecturing. Makes readings interesting and always goes over them. Enjoyed going to his class as he was always in high spirits.
