Comment:
I took both the creative writing and survey of American lit classes. Current American writing is moving in new and exciting directions, but to fully appreciate this fact you need a broad view of the genesis and evolution of America Lit. Mr. Mahaffey offers exactly that, and more. Engage yourself, be interested, do the work, and you will do well.

Comment:
Funny, cracks many jokes--he loves feedback and humor. He enjoys a good Star Trek original reference--though any Star Trek will do. I believe he graded me in both classes higher than I deserved. Although both of them were arts and letters that I was a bit less than 100% interested. I still made an effort to do the work.

Mr. Mahaffey is a wonderful teacher and I really enjoyed the class. I have taken two of his creative writing courses and thoroughly enjoyed both. I am taking the last in the series in the fall. He wants you to participate in class discussion and that was difficult for me as I am shy. I learned in the second class to speak up more.

He is quite a character. Movies were common and hard to stay awake through. Tests were difficult, but you are given a study guide and are allowed a sheet of notes. If you work hard, you will have an A.

Comment:
Mahaffey is great. His classes are really boring. Lots of movies and group work, but easy. I did my math homework during class and still got an A in both! Just be sure to turn in the work and you should be fine!
