A vaguely interesting guy and exposed the class to new ideas. But he is an intellectual lightweight, so don't go to class expecting analytic rigour.

Barger is very into his class. He tells you everything straight up though, and he's a pretty hard marker. Other than that he's an alright guy, you won't be bored but his material is a little odd for an English class.

Barger is a great prof and keeps you entertained during an 8:30 am lecture, he is easy going and enjoys class discussions, he marks quite hard but if you put the effort in you will do great! Favourite prof!

Overall a good prof, interesting class but he gets VERY sidetrack. Really nice guy & he wants to know & help his students. Don't be fooled by his cool attitude, he is a tough marker and he does expect quality work. Attend classes and don't leave essays until last minute and you'll do great!

The class is very irrelavent to English and Literature and the professor also uses biases in his teachings and towards students. The class is very boring.

Comment:
John is the best teacher in Saint mary's! He does not take favorites as one said. He marks fairly well and based on how good you write or how good you participate in class. We had 2 essays, and one presentation. The class was 2 hours and I loved every minuite of every class. I normally don't like english and it was mandatory for me to take.

He doesn't ever stay on topic, he is late to class and he keeps you over the time alloted. His opinions are never backed up an if you dont agree with him your mark suffers.

One of the best teachers I've had regardless of level. He makes class a joy to go to. Flexible on when the midterms are and he really encourages class discussions. He's also funny as hell, not a class goes by that's not entertaining. Very quotable too.

John Wall gives good notes.. pay attention in class and you should be fine.. If your not a reader, then he would be the prof to take. I read a minimal amount of the readings necessary, and did well on the course. Make sure you go to class, he learns your name and everything

He was a great prof. He opened my eyes and mind to the different aspects of Duende and changed my views on life. I'd never heard of it before. I thought he was a good marker, and i'm suprised that other people don't. The class was interesting and I looked forward to going to it. I wish he taught more courses!

Awesome prof! Helpful and funny, class was never boring. Actually carried on conversations with students before class instead of ignoring them. Always welcomed class discussions and never completely rejected someones opinion.

Awesome prof. Goes over everything in class in a lot of detail, makes midterms and exams easy. If you can write an essay, you're set.
