He is really nice. The class was really easy but the books read were kind of boring, but the essays assigned were easy and he really knows a lot about writing and literature. I enjoyed his class.

he's really fair, super nice, and a great teacher. really passionate about literature and writing, knows what he's doing. the books he uses in class are very depressing but you learn quite a bit. easy A if you work hard on your papers. there's no homework, just reading books and writing essays. also, he likes it when you speak up in class :D

he is a great professor. I took the eight week class so everything moved fast. as long as you do not procrastinate and attend the class, you will get a good grade. He tries his best to help you out but he is not an easy grader. overall, he is a nice, willing man

Excellent teacher! Read the books on time, participate in class discussions, and listen to his advice. It's that easy! I took the 8 week night class and he let us out early and listened to us about pushing back assignments. Highly recommended!

Comment:

He was an exceptional teacher, a teacher indeed. The man is just too inteligent and because of that he finds his surroundings boring, no offense but I think thats how he feels. He isn't suppose to entertain us, his suppose to teach us and he Teaches. I recommend him to students who actaully want to learn something and are willing to study. Thumbs ^

Comment:

Great professor, interesting reading material. I loved both his classes. I wish he taught WR 2... it's not hard to do well in this class. If you come to class, and write your papers, you'll at least get a B. He even reads your drafts and suggests how to improve your paper. How hard is that? You have time to work on your papers in class, not hard...

Don't take his class! Very inconsiderate! Boring! He lets the students stay late and will talk about nonsense stuffs just to fill up the time. I don't recommend him. Don't take him.

He only hates on people who show up late and use their cell phone in class. You must know English and be prepared to do work in his class. I liked him.

Very passionate about writing, and willing to work with students' ideas. I think its easy to get a B, and a bit of effort to get an A. He's a reasonable guy.

Very good teacher. i took him spring 2005. he's really passionate about what he is teaching. challenging, but very possible to get an A if you just have him edit ur rought draft before you actually turn in your final draft.
