Comment:

About as close to a superstar professor as you are going to find on the North Shore. Dr. Forst makes up for his lack of English roots with his vast knowledge of world history and art. Take him once, take him twice, you will never forget this wonderful man. Charming and menacing, unforgiving and unrepentant, impossible to quantify; such is Dr Forst.

i don't have enough good words to say about this professor. he made class so much fun, i couldn't wait for the next one. it was like going to the comedy club. he's kind, down to earth and treats everybody with respect. he was able to teach but made the whole learning experience so enjoyable. i've never had a teacher like him. very special!!!

He was a substitute philosophy teacher, though he normally teaches english. I liked him a lot. He was funny and treated us like people, not like kids. Pretty easy marker. Makes class enjoyable.

Comment:

Forst is awesome. Totally funny and incredibly smart guy. Loves music and linguistics, and does tend to wander off topic, but in a good way. There's a lot of room in the English 100 curiculum.

I didn't enjoy his teaching style. I have never had such a disorganized professor. Terrible at grading papers, uninteresting classes, poor reading selection

I took a class with Graham while I was working full-time, taking classes part-time. His encouragement and help motivated me to quit my boring full-time job and return to school. This man lives for his students; my life has been permanently altered for the better because of his dedication.

Super guy. Really caring and considerate of students different learning styles. Very opinionated, talks about his own beliefs a lot, which I liked because he allows for discussion. very intelligent, and friendly. if you need to talk to him, he's totally there for you.

Great guy, great teacher. If you treat him like you don't care, he won't care back. He gives back what you put in. If you give a bit of effort, you will be repaid handsomely. Plus, his jokes... excellent.

uhhh, he's not a very good english teacher. he knows a lot of stuff about pretty much everything, but that's about it. not a challenging course; sitting in class feels like a waste of time and i think i forgot how to a write decent essay.

Graham has helped me so much to improve my writing skills. he only wants the best for his students. ie. after you write your paper he will type out another sheet of grammar mistakes. if u fix them your grade on your paper will bump up to the next grade.

This prof wouldn't get off the holocaust thing. Anti-German and uses the classroom as a stage for his own agenda. A complete and utter disgrace to his profession.

I didn't like this prof. Talks to people like children. Plays to favorites. No direction in class structure. You could fall asleep in his class and nobody would ever notice because they're all sleeping too! BORING! ZZZZZZZ

Never knew poetry could talk to me. Graham's a fun old devil who always keeps it lively. Lectures got sublime at times, always unexpected. Teaching opera now.
