Comment:

Professor Hymowitz is very funny but he expects you to remember things he says in class and puts that on tests. He gives 1 midterm, 1 final, 1 presentation, 1 paper. His tests are a little hard, so be prepared to study. His tests are also lecture heavy, so if you don't attend you won't know the information. He doesn't use the books, don't buy them

Absolutely great professor! Does everything he can to make the information come across clearly and as easy as possible! A few assignments, but easy, a midterm and final that if you take appropriate notes and study for, you'll get a good grade.

I loved this class! He is an awesome professor. Super easy if you just do your assignments (which are also easy to do). No textbooks needed, just come to class and take notes on his lectures. The tests will be easy if you pay attention in class. He gives an extra credit too!

He is honestly the best professor at Hofstra. He loves what he does and really makes the class interesting and engaging. Midterm, final, and two assignments, and he is a very fair grader. Take all of his classes if you can!

He is just a wonderful person. Our class ended up having to be half online because of a scheduling conflict, but he did his best to make it work. The topics were interesting and he was very clear about what he wanted us to get out of the class. Plus it's an easy A.

I HAD HIM AS A INTERNSHIP SUPERVISOR. HE IS AWESOME. hE MAKES CERTAIN THAT HE TEACHES EVERYTHING THAT HE KNOWS.I COULD NOT HAVE ASKED FOR A BETTER PROFESSOR. ALTHOUGH HE DOES NOT ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS RIGHT AWAY BECAUSE HE WANT YOU TO START CRITICAL THINKING HE DOES EENTUALLY GIVE YOU THE ANSWER IN DETALS AND THE REASON WHY. HE IS A SWEETHEART.

He was the best professor I've ever had. Made everything so clear and actually made you want to come to class. Cared about what you thought about his class and loved interacting with us. I learned a lot and I'm taking another one of his classes. I definitely recommend!

Professor Hymowitz really is awesome. He's the nicest man, down-to-earth, assignments are enjoyable, tests are fair, lectures are interesting. You will look forward to going to his class and will really get a lot out of it. He's one of my favorite professors at Hofstra. Midterm, final, book review, field report. Definitely take his class!

I took 3 classes with this man. He is the absolute best teacher at hofstra and is the easiest. Even though there are papers and tests, they are soo easy and he grades papers so leniently.
