Paul is probably the most nicest and chills prof I have met so far. He basically tells you what to write for your essays and gives easy participation marks. Also, he makes sure to make his class fun and engaging, I would definitely recommend him for English.

Comment:
Paul is hilarious. The class is pretty easy, there is 2 take home essays, 1 in class essay and a summary. He gives you multiple topics to choose from to write, which makes it easier to do the assignment. He also breaks down every paper to how you should write it - and do it this way to get an A. He is a harder marker, but fair.

The course consists of 4 assignments and one of the assignments is a in class essay. He gives clear instructions during in class lectures on what he expects from you regarding essays. His lectures include personal anecdotes and current events that makes lectures appealing.

Good prof. Enthusiastic, funny, and clear. You can get an A if you listen to exactly what he asks for. He tells you exactly what he expects on your assignments. Did 4 assignments and 1 final. He takes attendance.

His classes are feel pretty great to be in. Chill guy who likes to joke, and his lectures aren't dry. He gives a lot of examples of what he looks for in writing, ranging from professional pieces, down to essays and stuff his previous students have allowed him to share. As for marking, he's pretty lax about it too. Would take him again.

Paul is a pretty chill instructor. He provides a clear grading criteria so you would know what he expects from you plus there is no final exam. At times he can also be quite humorous and entertaining in class as well. Overall I'd say Paul is definitely one of the best English instructors in KPU.

Paul makes the class fun and is very interactive and enthusiastic. Don't buy the textbook, it's not necessary. He's very clear and descriptive of his expectations for assignments and tests. He talks a lot, but it's bearable because he's hilarious. Make sure you use his constructive criticism because it'll help you get a better grade!

Even though I hated the idea of taking this course, Paul made me change my opinion on University English. He is engaging, hilarious, and inspired me to become a better writer. Although he is a tough marker, if you follow his criteria (he tells you exactly what he wants for each assignment) then you will be fine! Definitely recommend him!!

This guy is an amazing teacher. Once he sees that you are really trying he doesn't hesitate to give you a better mark just for effort. He likes it when his class is interactive so don't just sit there like a potato and try to engage in the interesting discussions. He's a tough marker but he always tells you exactly what he wants you to do.

Hard instructor even though English is not my second language. He likes to watch videos in class and write comparative essays on them. He is a great teacher but a hard marker.
