Comment:
A truly caring and inspirational man. I had the privilege of attending EDLS 100 with Harvey in the fall term of 2007 or 2008, and still think back on it regularly. His passion and commitment have continued to drive my career through teaching and now administration at another NY college.

Got about 2 weeks notice that he was teaching our class. Came in and did a great job. Your expected to write a daily journal, for the most part that's basically all the homework. Really helps prepare you to be a teacher

Comment:
By far the best teacher I have had in many years. He always was there to talk to his students that needed help with anything, even if it wasnt school work. If you did the requirements in the class you passed with flying colors. I had an 8am class and did not miss one day. I loved every second of it and did not mind waking up early to seeing him

"Art isn't a real major to journal on." That is what he told me. so if you're an art major make sure to know that you aren't in a real major. total waste of time.

Comment:
I had him for Developing a Positive Self Concept during summer session. The class is one week long from 9-4 and it never seemed like it lasted that long. We were always engaging in activites and becoming a family as a class. Its one of the first classes I've taken in a long time that I was actually sad to leave. I think I could have learned a lot more from Harvey. What a great man!

I learned nothing in this class. My grade did not reflect what I did. We had to read, highlight, and write in marginal notes. It taught me nothing about education whatsoever, although he is a nice man.

Harvey is the nicest and most sincere professor on campus. If you ever have any kinds of trouble he is there to help you. I admit that his class had a whole lot less to do with teaching and a whole lot more to do with life. Great man, okay class.

I felt that this class was a complete waste of my time and he didn't teach at all. he ultimately let me to change my major for education because his lack of teaching skills didn't teach the prerequisits for going into the core of the education major. DON'T TAKE HIM, MAKE HIM STAY RETIRED!!!!
