Great teacher! Class revolves around discussion of the readings. Usually small classes where everyone talks so make sure to read! You can get away with skimmingskipping some readings as long as you discuss real life examples. Just make sure your involved in discussion and attend!

Engages the class frequently. Great personality. Explores topics in detail. Pay attention and remember examples he uses because they're significant to understanding how the theory relates to the real world. Would definitely take again in a heartbeat. Favourite professor so far.

I agree entirely with the comment below. I really enjoyed Avi's class, especially as I'm not extremely fond of post-modernism. Avi's way of teaching theory is extremely innovative, and I highly recommend his class.

Avi is great! I've been to both SOCI 403 classes, and Avi's is FAAAR better. Seminar type class, very involved and flexible! I definitely recommend this section over others (but if you really like postmodernism-go with Bart Simon's class)

T took SOCI310 with Avi in the summer of 09 and he's honestly one of the best profs I had at Concordia! Brilliant, funny, energetic (LOVES his coffee!), totally approachable. The material needs you to do the readings and effort is rewarded. Avi gives you all you'll need to do well so it's your choice. Take him. Highly recommended! Great guy

AMAZING!! The best teach I've ever had in Concordia. Well-prepared lectures, helpful feedbacks. However, in terms of work-load, his class is quite demanding. But you'd learn a ton if you study.

AMAZING prof...best I have ever had.... Makes me enjoy going to class. If he wasn't a prof, he'd have to be a stand up comic... he makes the class laugh every week. His assignments are interesting if you take them at heart. He is also very helpful when answering questions or concerns about exams or papers. GREAT COURSE..AMAZING PROF

Keeps class interesting with his humour. Always come to class and take notes and you will get an A. The exams are not very difficult, but I found the paper challenging. He is very helpful, knows his stuff, and really seems to care if his students do well or not.

Very approachable prof - nice guy. Tough marker. Difficult to follow his lectures at times...loses focus a bit. Exams are challenging. Grades papers hard too. Seems to be into his work which is always refreshing to see at any university.
