Comment:
He expects you to participate in class discussions, but criticizes you if you do. He expects you to read the book but then his lectures are irrelevant. He then assigns a 40 question multiple choice test which you can't study from in the book or lecture notes. Then 2 days before it's due he tells you he's only grading 8 questions at random.

He's a great teacher if you wan't a good laugh. I will give him credit for one thing he teaches you to have a sense of humor. After-all that is what you need to get through the stress of trying to pass his class a good laugh. He's a joke; he gives you a 40 question test, but tells you that; you can't study from the book, nor from lecture notes.

Extremely hard teacher for a 2 year school- teaches more like university level, but you get what you put into it. Make an effort and he sees that. I enjoyed his class, learned a lot, expects his students to want to learn

Comment:
had him for US history after 1800. He was cool at first but then it became clear he just liked to showboat his "historical knowledge" Believes his interpretations are uncontravertible. tried to give me a C-, and when I called him about it, he argued w/ me, until I made him go through my grades and he said, oh your right, you have a B+. he's a jerk

This guy is the worst teacher i've ever had, if you try to get help he accuses you of cheating. His test's are horrible; he gives you 33 questions and expects you to type the entire test in essay format including multipe choice questions. Then the day it's due he tells you that he's only grading 8 random questions!

Crazy guy lots of fun if you like to hear him calling students names(he cant pronounce anything and he make sure he calls everyones' names out loud every time when class begins). he seems to give out same materials for dozen years now and he never corrected any mistakes he made on his class materials. nothing much to learn form this guy.

Comment:
Very military like personality, likes things done his way and thats that. He assigned a 33 question take home test all to be done in essay format (took a group of 6 kids to figure out all the answers) and gave us 2 days to do it. IMPOSSIBLE. then gave us a final the next day. If you work your butt off it will pay I did and got an A. DIFFICULT

The worst teacher at MWCC. This guy is mean, rude, emotional issues, and ignorant about class materials. Only f***up idiots would like him as an instructor. my recommendation, DONT TAKE THIS GUY's CLASS save your money for something better like a baseballgame ticket.

thought he was ok first week-grading policy seemed fair but now i know better. he doesn't put much effort into class. unclear about assignments but then gets mad if they're not done right. shows up late every class but gets mad if you come in after him. abrasive personality; rude, angry & unapproachable. class was a waste of $.

Comment:
He tells lots of stories of his police days. He tells lots of stories in general to help make his point. It arouses class discussion. Haven't taken a test yet.
