Comment:

Extremely interesting, exciting, fun, happy, never boring. His classes are for advanced, skilled writers. Those who have no clue, don't belong at this level. I learned how to create polished, professional, marketable work, as well as how to query publishers. He is awesome! The lessons I learned from Dr. Burns--priceless. Class motto--cha ching!!!

Comment:

Some people here need to get over themselves and realize that some people are just quirky. Burns is quirky. There is not an insincere bone in his body. He is excited about teaching and even more excited about his students learning. If you are ever blessed to take a class from him and do your job, he will be a valuable ally of yours.

Comment:

I am a current doctoral student and can say Dr. Burns remains an excellent and exciting instructor. The student knows his/her stuff when leaving the class. If not, then the student must ask what he/she failed to do to help the cause along. Don't miss the golden opportunity of taking a class with Dr. Burns.

Comment:

Has a way of making you feel uncomfortable in the class and when meeting in his office. His smile is insincere. A lot is expected in the class and it eats up your time. You learn nothing you can't already pick up in another English class.

Comment:

Plays mind games to try to impress you. He's insincere. You won't learn very much. Just look at the posts from people who like him and see how they write. That's what he taught them. Useful class, huh?

Dr. Burns is an awesome professor, especially for the serious English students. He does try and make the class fun, just be prepared to read, read, read and then write, write, write! He is a truly genuine person, and the key in his class is to communicate, communicate, communicate!

Don't listen to the ones who rated him poorly. If you are looking for a blow of class..don't take anything with Dr. Burns, but if you want to learn, by all means take him. Amazing man and amazing professor. Show interest in the subject he is teaching and he will love you forever. Don't be afraid to ask questions- he is truly a wonderful person.
