Comment:

Overall, I have never hated a class as much as his. I found him to be difficult to the point it was as if he was intentionally trying to fail as many people as possible. He was arrogant and talked down to you. He read his lectures and expected you to write down every word. I would never again take a class he was teaching. Horrible.

Comment:

My fav prof (smart,laid-back,helpful,funny). His lectures go fast, but are so well done; they flow so logically and clearly from topic to topic. Exceptional teacher (he values deep conceptual understanding over memorization/reproduction of facts). The course material really stuck. Beware-if you don't like the topic, the course will be hard.

Just bribe him with Scotch, lol. Okay it doesn't really work but it's amusing. Lectures were a bit boring but tutorials were great, very relaxed.

Interesting and informative lectures (although fast-paced). If you keep up with readings, lectures are easy to follow. A very laid-back and helpful prof. It was my pleasure.

Comment:

This course was not what it appeared to be in the course calendar. Psycholinguistics would be a better name, and would frighten more people away from the class.
