Prof. Forleo gives out a plethora of extra credit papers! You dont have to do them because his class is overall very easy, but its a good backup. His ideologies align with mine, so I thought his lectures were quite inspiring. A very intellectual prof.

Oh man! I graduated from CCRI and went back just to take another class with him. Forleo is a great guy who really cares about the students and wants you to succeed as an English major. He can seem tough, but only if there is a motive. Such as texting in class or not participating.

Forleo is the best. He constantly inspired us to look closely at each text. I've learned so much from his insights on literature. I love CCRI, and he's a major reason why. Don't miss this guy's classes.

Comment:
I took Modern Lit and he was an incredible professor. He chooses books that are really interesting and isn't afraid to talk about controversial topics. He chose 7 books/plays for the semester which may seem like a lot but he always goes over the material and gives an in depth analysis just in case there are things you missed. Exams are easy as well

Comment:
He has a tendency to say "everyone knows" or "you all remember" or "everyone would agree" and followed up with an obscure literary reference which can be quite annoying. If you can get past that, show up, and do the readings, his class is an easy A. Tests are straightforward and he offers unlimited extra credit. Learned a lot from his lectures too

There are teachers, and then there people who just want to get paid. He was very passionate I could tell. But he was never willing to help or communicate with me. I don't even think he ever added me to his roster. He never responded to my emails. He gave group work to not have to grade so many papers. He'd lecture for 5 minutes and leave.

Comment:
You mostly do all group projects ad present them which stinks. All papers are done outside of class so I didn't learn anything-simply given a prompt and wrote a paper- papers given back alot later so any feedback on essays are pointless as you've already written more essays. Essay prompts unclear and asking doesn;t clarify. Nice guy but bad class

Comment:
Forleo could care less about his students. Tells you stories about himself that make you just want to roll your eyes. Extremely cocky. Seems to hate teaching because his classes are 8 minutes long and assigns group work instead of teaching. Easy A but if you like to write I highly recommend AVOIDING Forleo. Worst english class I've ever taken.

He's probably one of the best professors I've had at ccri, but sometimes he gets to passionate about the topics and goes into so much detail some people wouldn't understand. Always willing to hand out extra credit. DO IT! each one is 5 points towards your final grade.
