Comment:

Ted's creative writing class was one of the highlights of my semester. He always starts the class off with interesting discussions and readings, and the workshop process was so interesting and rewarding. Plus, he keeps his classes very small (12 people). Ted is so kind and gives great feedback! He helped me realize how much I love writing.

Great professor. Encourages student development and isn't afraid to push your writing to the next level. Had a breakthrough and very much enjoyed fiction writing with him.

Weesner's great. He's such a nice man and you can tell he loves creative writing. He had really great feedback as well and the I loved the workshop set up the classes took on. It's hard to get a bad grade, but you definitely have to work for an A.

I took his English 1 class several yrs ago. Weesner was one of the best English teachers I've had. Since high school, I thought writing was tedious, but he made it fun and encouraged creativity. To this day I enjoy writing a lot more!

Great guy. Had him for English 2 Love and Sexuality and had an awesome time. Class became really close, readings are short packets, papers are interesting and fairly graded. I always looked forward to this class and keep trying to get into his fiction class! Definitely a must.

Comment:

Ted is a really nice guy who is encouraging of all students to give their opinions. His one flaw is that he is often too hesitant to contribute criticism, because he likes being supportive so much. I took English 2 Love and Sexuality from him, and I loved it--read interesting things, watched interesting movies, got to write papers that ranged from

Weezner is the shiznit. Everyone in the class got at least an A- and passed out of English 2. Classes are very open and actually fun to go to. We learn a lot about ourselves and others.

Great teacher! He took a chance by letting me into his class which was already full. I am so happy he did; I was a bio major, and never knew how much I loved to write, and how much creative potential I had in me.
