Comment:

He is a funny guy and tells fairly interesting personal stories. His occasional feedback sessions really help you to figure out exactly what you want from your paper. He also gives really good feedback and basically spoon-feeds you an A in his class. Just broaden your vocab when writing and make sure you read the passages and you'll be fine.

I'm international student from Korea. He gives three essay assignments, a revising essay and final test. Each topic on essay has different topic and writing skills. These writing skills will really helpful when you compose your own essay at any moment, also he gives you many advice at every conference.

Comment:

This professor has to be the worse at VSU. I wouldn't recommend him to anyone! He tries to correct your paper but when he does, and you do everything he tells you, he end up marking it. Don't take this professor unless u expect a C in the class because he is not worth it! If you do, don't expect an A

It may seem like it's going to be difficult but it never is. He is super nice, always willing to help and give you makeups. Sometimes his connections to other works aren't clear but none the confusing stuff ends up on exams. Tells you everything that's going to be on the test no way you won't get an A.

Dr. Brown is such a wonderful professor and he is a kind person in general. He's always willing to give his time and actually be there for students to give advice, and he's not intimidating or demeaning like some professors can be. I truly wish all professors were like him.

If you ever get the chance to take Dr. Brown, take him. He is one of the rare professors who truly cares about students, and his zeal for literature is contagious. Classes are no more difficult than they have to be, but you still learn alot. Take him. You won't be sorry.

Dr. Brown is incredibly nice and helpful; he goes out of his way to explain papers and assignments to you. You can schedule one-on-one conferences with him if you're confused or need additional help. His class wasn't difficult, and I really enjoyed it. Attendance is mandatory, and you will need to buy the books. Great class.

Dr. Brown is an excellent teacher. He makes the material easy to connect with and always has great energy. Be prepared to write a lot in this class. While you do have to do a good bit of work, he offers one - on -one conferences that always help clear any questions you may have. I've come out of this class a better paper writer thanks to him.

Really good teacher. He goes out of his way to help students who are doing poorly. He gives quite a bit of quizzes so make sure you read the stories in the book. Easy A as long as you read!

Comment:

Mr. Brown is pretty cool guy, he knows names very fast, so if u dont show up to class u will be marked absent. He grades pretty hard but gives really good comments. He is nice, funny, has a goofy laugh, and tries to make the class interesting, with it already being somewhat boring.

absolutely awesome teacher! If you can, make sure to take as many of his classes as possible... one of the few professors out there who can make a class both easy to understand and still convey the information needed to satisfy the requirements of the class.

I love this professor. He is so zany and over the top... although he got carried away when we got to the Romantic poetry, he's still great. I totally recommend this professor. He grades fairly easy and he's so not a stick in the mud!!

One of the nicest teachers I have had. Very clear about what he wants, grades fairly and easily. One of those rare professors who gives a crap about students.
