He's a great teacher! A really tough grader, so you're going to have to work for it, believe me. I got a D on my first paper. I used his comments and continued to improve my papers.I thought I was a decent writer until I took his class. NOW, I can write a 10 page paper no problem. Thank you for all your comments and making me the writer I am today.

Dr. Petersen is very knowledgeable about all Shakespearean Plays. You must work very hard, and be accessible to outside University's to find research for your papers. Dr. Petersen expects high expectations. A lot of homework, but it's all worth it. I took his English 102 back in Fall 2016. A lot more good things to say, but not enough space.

One of those rare professors that has the power to truly impact their students. But, that doesn't mean his classes are easy, he makes you work - which should be the goal for each student anyways. As long as you do the work, you will come away from his class different than you went in. Highly recommend for anyone interested in Lit or Shakespeare.

He is one of the best teachers I had. Very helpful but difficult but he does push us to do our best. Gives excellent feed back and is a fast grader. You will have to read a lot. I recommend this teacher becaus he cares about his students and is willing to help you when you need it.

Dr. Petersen is such an awesome Professor. I took him for Eng 102 and Lit 211. He is knowledgeable, helpful, and hilarious. He makes you work for his class, but it is so worth it!

Throughout the semester we were assigned papers, on all of my papers I received B's and A's but when it came time to turn in a final portfolio with my highest graded paper (A) I failed the class. What is the point of him grading me? Honestly, the final is graded by other faculty and they gave me a Fail, but my English teacher, all semester says A?

The most amazing and challenging professor I've ever had! MP is a very clever person who gives great feedback. He is also a tough grader and expects a lot from his students. Be prepared to have no life if you want to pass his class!

Michael Petersen is definitely one of the best teachers I have ever had. He is tough, but he is very a very helpful professor who wants you to learn and succeed. He assigned 5 novels, and you are to write an analysis on 4 of them. He gives out pop quizzes, one presentation, and attendance is a must! Tough, yet great teacher! Take him!

Comment:
A lot of people have dropped his course. He gives out some much work we have to read 5 novels. For every novel there is a take home quiz and you have to do 4 out of 5(3pg) literary analysis papers. Unexpected quizzes. A lot of work but he is a good teacher. Discussion is a must and you must be early to his class or he deducts points.

One of the best teachers in the history of my life! I was slightly interested in Shakespeare before the class. After the class I feel like I know Shakespeare.I can read it! Lol. I love how intricately beautiful and thought provoking it can be. He knows when students are bulletining him and doesn't accept sh!t work. I'm a better student for it.

Mr. Petersen is really one of the best teachers you will have. Now, coming from a student who FAILED HIS CLASS, I will always say a good word about him. I thought I could get away with not showing up, or showing up late and boy, was I wrong. He will help you but you need to show up to class! It is a lot of work but he's there for you!

Comment:
Shakespeare class. He is a hard teacher but def worth taking if you plan to come to class. I also took his 102 but dropped cause i fell behind. He's really nice, funny, and works hard with students to make sure they do learn. Will use various examples to explain Shakespeare. He's also a big movie buff which is great. He looks like Tim Robins! :-)

Comment:
Dr. Petersen sets the bar high. He wants his students to reach beyond what is popular and come to understand and appreciate why some of the greatest (and often no so modern) stories are still being published and studied to this day. The work load is heavy but if you come to class, participate, and do the readings, you should do great!

Mr. Petersen is awesome. He's one of the most fair teachers I know. He postpones a lot of assignment if the class is not done with it. I used to hate English courses until I took his class. He is helpful and makes sure you understand everything. If you do all your work and show up, there's no reason you shouldn't get an A. Take his class!
