Professor Reimers may be a leader in his field, but as a professor, his lectures can run dry. He should also speak louder in lectures, and moreover, be involved in the grading process and discussion sections, as opposed leaving the TA in charge of everything.

This was a fantastic course. I learned how to actually do a policy analysis and learned a great deal about comparative education. The course concludes with a final conference at which students present their final papers. The course is very well designed and taught.

Read recently the feedback in my final paper for this course. Of all the courses I took last semester I learned the most from Fernando and his TFs. They are very dedicated to teaching. I also learned a lot from my classmates. This was a terrific learning experience. His mind works at the speed of light and his lectures are packed.

I just received my final paper for this class. I am in awe at how much I learned in one just semester. The lectures were amazing, the passion and energy were very high. I've never received as much feedback on my work. I definitely learned a lot. I recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn about comparative education. The TFs are excellent.

He should practice what he teachers; class discussion, promoting other points of views...etc. Unless you are in love with Latin America or Mexico, his class is totally pointless as to him "International Education" apparently only means Latin America...disappointing!!!!!!!!!!!!!
