Took Dr. McDonald for American Lit. Our only grades came from five essays based on our readings and a few icebreaker activities. He's very funny and sarcastic but he's a great professor. Definitely taking more classes with him.

I loved Mr. McDonald! We had about 4 papers that we worked on throughout the semester. He gives so much class time towards helping with the papers and gives great feedback! He's very flexible with how he runs the class. Highly recommend!

Mr. MacDonald is an awesome teacher that truly encourages classroom participation. He is extremely knowledgeable in his field and delivers each lesson in class with clarity and a sense of humor which results in a daily relaxed setting. However, his class is highly rigorous and reserved for those students who are dedicated and hard-working.

Comment:
He was whimsical when made nervous. He made a fool out of me. He made me honest. It was a long summer. I wore leather tassles, nevertheless, which wilted and smelled of the animal. He pretended not to notice these. I was very foolish, then.
