Comment:

HORRIBLE. ALWAYS CONFUSING...YOU WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND WHAT IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING IN THE CLASS BECAUSE HE IS A CONFUSED RAMBLER. DO ANYTHING YOU CAN NOT TO TAKE HIM. CLASS WOULD PROBABLY BE EASY IF THERE WAS A JONAH FREIDMAN TRANSLATOR TO EXPLAIN THE MEANING BEHIND ALL THE STUFF HE TRIES TO EXPLAIN. NO NO NO JONAH

Comment:

total creep. unclear in everything he says. he envisions class going a certain way, but does nothing but end up trying to fit 10 pounds of crappy material in a 5 pound bag; there's just not enough time in the period for him to assign the assignment, explain it, keep re-explaining it, and then try and teach 3 hours worth of discussion into 50 mins.

Comment:

I found the class interesting and even though it was confusing at times where the class was going, it all workedut in the end. The style of the class is interesting. We enjoyed working in groups. You can get away with doing some of the reading, and the quizzes are worth so little that they wont hurt your grade to do bad on them. I recommed him!

Comment:

this guy is a horrible teacher. he is unclear in saying what he wants but a hard grader because he knows in his head exactly what he wants. his readings are long and boring and on tests and quizzes he uses trick questions for his own sick pleasure to make sure you fail. DONT TAKE HIM!!!!! You'll be sorry because you'll hate him

Comment:

He means well, but he's a bad teacher, and not an easy grader either. He gives us a lot of readings that even the nerdiness of nerds don't read, answers questions with questions (real helpful there) and is boring. I don't recommend him.

So much reading your eye**** will fall out. Impossible to finish all of it even if you try. If you don't site enough sources forget getting anything above a B-. He is very confusing and not helpful at all, better off helping yourself than asking him.

Comment:

Although he is a very nice man, he shouldn't be teaching. He teaches the class as if it were a graduate course in Theology. He is very unclear, and going to him for help just confused me to the point of tears. stay away.
