Comment:

Easy class! The biggest drawback is that it meets every other Saturday. He is such a nice guy, who is very understanding of scheduling conflicts; however, attendance is mandatory. Easy grader, and few assignments. The midterm was very easy as long as you take good notes on his lectures.

Comment:

If you attend class and take lecture notes you will not fail. He is very fair and approachable. He was also my academic advisor. Very caring and you will remember him as one of the reason you stayed at Townson or ever wanted to finish your degree in health care.

Comment:

This is not a class you can expect an easy A in. You have to do some work and some tedious assignments. The class is held on saturdays (which sucks). But its only every two weeks which makes it better. The midterm is kinda hard and you really have to study. Not a bad class overall though. I would recommend this class.

Nelson gives it to you straight forward. I have him 3 hours, once a week, and it's honestly a really bearable class. It's a lot of notes. 3 tests, 2 case studies, 1 5 page paper, and a few other various assignments. He can get a bit jumbled at times, but I learned a lot and wouldn't hesitate taking him again.

This teacher is very lively and keeps you interested in the content of the class. Quizzes and exams are straight from the text. The group projects (slideshows) are very easy. He wants you to get an A as long as you show up!

Great Teacher! Don't use the book AT ALL! His exams are based on class lectures. Just need to take GOOD notes & attend class often. He even tries to make class interesting by telling a joke or two.

Comment:

hard to stay awake during his lectures. couldnt really organize my notes while he speaks but he usually tells you what you NEED to know for the test. attempts to make things interesting and funny.. ends up laughing at his own jokes. gives a lot of info without mentioning if its actually important so you write down everything..

Comment:

I had him last semester but he was really great. No textbook, purely note-taking, which was good with me because I hate reading from textbooks. Grade is made up of 3 or 4 tests but He reviews for it the class before. After you get the test back, you go over it and he throws out questions if too many people got it wrong and curves it. He's supernice

Comment:

I think this professor may have changed since ppl last reviewed him..this class was a pain,he was very disorganized and let us out early half the semester and then we go so far behind.Test questions were weird and repetitive and he had to give huge curves.Felt like I learned nothing.No work aside from tests.Take him if required but that's it.

Great teacher. While we're not in class very much, I feel like I learn more from him than anyone else. He makes classes fun and enjoyable without any of the pressure that you get from other classes. All you need to do is take basic notes and you'll get an easy A.

what a brilliant prof. He doesn't teach straight from the book, unlike other prof. Has a great sense of humor. He makes his class interesting, and you actually FEEL like a college student in his class. Must take hlth with him. I highly recommend.
