Comment:

He does give weekly homework but it is really easy, he gives you the chance to stay on track extending due dates at times. He is very inspirational as he often discusses about certain aspects of life that we often neglect. The use of the text book really helps but I personally have only studied from notes and passed the class without any problem

Comment:

Mentally old fashion in terms of what jokes he thinks are appropriate. Offensive jokes are the norm with this teacher and his lectures are trying to be funny but if you are a philosophy major or will be using a lot of philosophy, I would highly recommend you skip him. He does NOT follow the respect code the college promises.

If you want to learn Critical Thinking and not feel too stressful about Critical Thinking, take Dr. Liem's class. He gives you a lot of chances for extra credits. His class is interesting, I never look at the clock to see what time the class is over like many other classes. I learned a lot from his class. If you go to class everyday, you'll get A.

Dr. Liem's class is my favorite class so far at College. One midterm and 1 final. Open books and notes. If you go to class everyday, it is so easy to get an A. All questions are from his lectures. He doesn't use any powerpoint at all and his lectures are not too long but are to the point. He is hilarious and his class is fun and interesting.

Comment:

He is not that good but not bad either . If you are Vietnamese then take his class otherwise you may wanna think again . He tends to get out of the subject a lot with jokes and stories . Funny if you are taking class for fun but if you wanna learn you may want to skip that teacher .

Comment:

Sometimes difficult to understand. He gets off topic a lot, which was a little frustrating at 7pm when I just want to get home, but always entertains and at least TRIES to tie it back to his main point. Very little homework and always easy. Tests were not usually on stuff from the book, so take good notes on his lectures.

Comment:

Took this over summer, very boring class. Very few important concepts that you need to understand. All tests are open note and book. Also homework everyday so don't slack off, you need to book to do the hw since the problems are in the book. Watched a couple of pointless videos, he can be hard to understand but he is very funny.

Comment:

Very informational for those whom have a strong interest in Philosophy. If not, attend every class, he does not return homework, but returns quizzes. No study guide for mid terms and finals, only tells you what pages to read. A recorder maybe helpful. Overall he knows what he is talking about and very knowledgeable of the material and he is funny.
