This guy is one of the few MDC professors that truly make interesting a course, I took him for introduction to Philosophy, and took him also for critical thinking/ethics. The best professor I have had in Miami Dade, he gets into the topic and makes us stay plugged into his lectures.
thank god we don't need the book. if it was all on the book i would have been sunk a while ago. all you have to do is listen, think, remember, and think again. not much effort past those fronts.
oretty good teacher, talks ALOT. very confusing when it comes to validity and soundness of an argument. Easy class. Take Notes when he talks stufy them and you will do fine on his exams. there is an Quiz almost every week. not all that difficult. overall pretty good class. i would recomend him but Neunder is a better PHI teacher.
Took him for both PHI2604 AND PHI2010. Wasn't TOO easy or TOO hard. You had to study a little bit to pass the class. Had to write essay since it was a Gordon Rule Class but wasn't very picky if I recall. Straight forward class.
alsome teacher.... kinda confusing... but very good very clear and will not mind to repeat thiings seeraltimes before he moves on
very good professor... very helpful and is very good..... recommend for nursing majors!!!
His quizzes are very easy because he does explain the material several times. Asking him a question isnt scary like some professors. Very good teacher and kind.
Awesome teacher ! I really learned alot from him and he made philosophy fun. I got an A in his class. He gives you the essay questions a week before the test so that you could prepare for it.
Take him! He is really nice professor!
HE IS A GOOD PROFESSOR. THE TOPIC MAY BE A LITTLE DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND. YOU NEED TO BE IN CLASS FOR HIS LECTURES, TAKE GOOD NOTES & STUDY FOR HIS TESTS. OVERALL HIS CLASS IS VERY GOOD.
This is one of the best teachers. I had him for PHI 2010 and PHI 2604 and I passed him with a A and B. I never studied for his exams i took notes and reviewed my notes and did the writing assignments and i passed his class. i recommend him to anybody
He's straight, just talks to much, as long as you read the book, you'll get an A
This professor was so nice. He does not intimidate you unlike some other college professors. He may talk quite a bit sometimes, but he talks about the subject though, not about politics or something. HE REALLY KNOWS HIS STUFF!!! I strongly recommend you take the class. You just need to pay attention in class and write whatever he puts on the board.
GREAT PROFESSOR! GREAT LECTURES! REALLY! YOU WILL LOVE HIS CLASSES! Show him your interest on the class. Do your homework with time. Read well the terminology for the tests and you won't have problems. He is very understanding, fair and treats with respect. The BEST Miami Dade College teacher. TAKE HIS CLASS! YOU WILL REALLY LEARN!
Great prof. very very easy, he is going to explain the exam questions over and over again, so there will be no problem for you to take his exams. Very help full. If you email him, he can reply you a very polite email, not like other prof. reply you with their stupid attitude. He is also a great person!
He is a great teacher. He is somewhat funny sometimes. You just have to pay attention to his lectures, and try not to miss class. If you do, you will not need to read the book at all. His tests are super easy... you will get an easy A.

Awesome professor. I used to hate Philosophy and he made me love it. He knows what he is talking about and NEVER expresses personal opinions of his own. Extremely nice guy. His tests are very easy and he makes sure you understand his explanations. THE BOOK IS NOT NECESSARY AT ALL. He will give you a handout, that and your class notes is all u need.
This is a great teacher. He talks a lot but his test are based on his lectures; so go to class. His class is consist of quizes, tests, and writing assignments. He gives you time to make-up tests if you missed them plus hes very lenient with the writing assignments. Easy class to pass!
He is a great professor. He is very clear. He gives make up tests, and drops the lowest. I took philosophy with him too. Don't hesitate to take this professor.
I highly recommended this professor!! He knows what he is talking about, and don't miss his class or you will miss out on alot of info. Take good notes because his lectures will be on his tests. If in doubt about something ask questions. I started off a little rocky with the test grades, but ended his class with a "B". Very happy with him
If you want a good professor to educate you in the Philosophy, then you cannot go wrong with Lenel. He is completely on point. He is extremely smart and TRULY loves to teach. You cannot go wrong with a professor who LOVES teaching. You'll never look at Philosophy the same way. I highly recommend him. Don't miss class!
GREAT Professor!!! Quizzes based on his lectures. Knows what he's talking about. Just make sure you go to class.
Awsome professor. Makes a boring subject interesting. Loves to lecture but he's funny so its not so bad. His tests are not so easy so it's not a free ride..you have to study. I would take another class with him.
Great teacher! His tests are 10 multiple choice and 10 true or false, you need to study but overall super easy class. I got an A and would definetely get another class with him :D
I am currently taking this class online. The class is much more interesting than I thought. There are 6 multiple choice quizes an 3 tests. This class is super easy and the professor is really nice. Makes sure you do all the quizes and discussion board assign. and you will have an A. He also makes really cool power point presentations!
Awsome professor. Makes a boring subject interesting. Loves to lecture but he's funny so its not so bad. you have to study . I would take another class with him. GREAT GUY
I took this class online and the class was pretty easy. The professor is really nice and helpful. He allows you to retake each quiz twice and he also extended deadlines. Gives 6 quizzes and 3 tests. He is a really good professor.
This professor is very nice and he is super cool. He likes to help the students a lot in his class you are going to have 6 quizzes a midterm and a final exam also 10 writing assignments im not saying his class is easy but if you study and do what you have to do thats and easy A, piece of cake !!!
Excellent professor, very clear and interesting power points. It was an interesting class, they consisted on 6 quizes, 10 mandatory board messages and 3 exams(they are essays) overall it was an easy class, but Prof. Lenel made it more interesting that I expected.
An excellent teacher! His clear explanations and knowledge of the material make the class very interesting, which is very difficult to achieve when it comes to ethics. Quizzes are a bit tricky. You need to study hard to get a passing grade. If you do not miss class, pay attention to his explanation and study the material then you will get an A.
Really smart teacher. I believe he is the best teacher Ive ever had. He manages to make it interesting, eventhough (at least for me) the subject is really boring by itself. AWSOME CLASS.
Loved him. Funny and uses personal stories to relate to the material. Quizzes super easy, if you just go to his class and pay attention you can pass
He is an okay teacher. Study your notes and you will be okay. If you are struggling in the class he is willing to help. Philosophy is a complex subjec, so you have to read a lot. If you don't plan on studying don't take the class because it is not a free ride, and he also drops the lowest grade.
Super easy.. only pay attention to his lectures and you'll do fine. He does a review right before the test and it is everything that is on the test. Super nice and more than willing to help you if you need it.
AWESOME PROFESSOR!!, His way of teaching its really good and easy to learn, had a blast in his class!!!. Highly recommended!!
He is super. I loved the class. He made it interesting eventhough it's not my thing. the book is not needed because he explains everything in class. You have an easy A if you go to class and study for the exams which are not that hard.
Great professor!!!!!!!! I just finished taking his class. He is an awesome professor. If you really don't like philosophy take it with this guy you won't regret it. He makes the class interesting and has some funny stories to tell that help you remember the material.One of the Best things in this class is that the final is not accumulated.
No Comments
great teacher. Takes his time with his lectures and makes the material easy to understand. this is supposed to be a difficult class but he makes it easy. take a lot of notes because all quizzes and exams are based purely with the lectures. Don't need the textbook. just make sure you go to class and you will be fine. funny guy and humble so if you n
Took his class online, great teacher, goes out of his way to help. You do have to keep track of all the assignments and the final is cumulative, but he is lenient if you need extra time to complete them. Would recommend.
AWESOME TEACHER...DEFINETLY TAKE HIM IF YOU"RE GONNA TAKE PHILOSOPHY
He was an awesome professor! Very helpful and nice. Was very clear.
He is a great professor, easy A, you dont need the book.
wonderfull
he is the greatest professor ever, always willing to help.
He is a nice professor,but his class is absolutely boring.Take a pillow to class
Easy A, don't buy the book he gives u a review sheet and posts powerpoints with the info for the quizes and test. Six quizes two tests EASY EASY EASY. Downside, he's boring.
Great if not the greatest philosophy ever!
Great professor, you will learn alot in his class. Makes the class interesting. Easy A if you try.
HE'S A NICE GUY. EASY IF YOU PAY ATTENTION. REPEATS MOST OF THE STUFF HE SAYS. BORING. BORING. HE'S GOOD, BUT NOT THE KIND I WOULD TAKE TWICE. HE'S OLD AND NICE BUT JUST BEING HONEST.
He's good. Would take him again. Awesome prof.
He is that easy, that people blow it?6 quizzes, 2 test, 10 homework. How hard can it be? Very knowledgeable about the subject, I learn a lot about ethic. Excellent class.
Took class online its based on powerpoints no book req. easy teacher the test opens in a seperate window making it easy to do the exam "open book" lol I passed all his exams got a d in the final for never reading the powerpoints but got an A in the class!! Do the essays as best as possible and be argumentative state your point clearly
EASY EASY EASY. All you have to do is stay awake. Seriously, drink coffee, redbull whatever. This guy is boring. DONT BUY THE BOOK. If you take good notes you wont have to. I also took him for PHI2010, intro to phi. Really easy, not as boring.
He's an awesome teacher, his philosophy class is really entertaining. The class will seem long, but the subject is interesting enough to keep you awake. But he's also really helpful, extremely good person.
What a wonderful nice professor, he is so much fun, and will not let you down. Test are black and white and he makes the class so much fun!
What do philosophers do? They teach philosophy; that's Lenel. I highly recommend him to everybody. His lectures are crystal clear, he's funny, he lets you know exactly what is going to be on every quiz, test etc. He goes over previously covered material to make sure u understand the concept to keep it fresh in your mind for the quiz. A+ professor.
cant desagree here, very nice guy, sometimes boring, but when he notices it then starts making jokes to have your attention again... dont expect the subject to be the bomb, but he does his best to make it as interesting as possible :D .... 6 super easy quizzes, midterm and final, NO RESEARCH PAPER!! cant get any better than that..
I really enjoyed the class, excellent professor.Quizzes frequently, so the material we went over was fresh in our minds, thus we didn?t have 2 study that much for the midterm or final.Explain everything crystal clear.He doesn't waste any time.He gave us the chance 2 make up any quiz.The tests were strictly from what we had cover in class. RECOMMEND
He's awesome, rarely uses the book, but you'll need it to study. You have to study, but it's an easy A. He's such a cool guy.
AWESOME!! He knows his material and is extremely helpful and nice. I recommand his everyone to take his class. Although his test are easy, they are really tricky. His powerpoints are extremely helpful. Easy A.
genius
This man is seriously a genius! He makes class interesting and interactive. Class discussions are always fun. You do need to study and think a LOT. Hence CRITICAL THINKING :)
Super good pf but and makes the material looks simple but not easy
He is such a great professor.
Woderful Teacher.
He is AMAZING! INTELLIGENT! Genius! Really nice, funny, willing to help, articulate. You don't need the book, he lectures based on handouts that he gives (about 20 sheets for a whole semester) which help for the quizzes. His Gordon rule essays are easy if you know how to write like a college student! I recommend him 100%!
Fabulous professor, very articulate and very helpful; he really cares about the students, easy going and easy to talk to. I wish most professors were like him. I would take him again if I have to. Believe me you won?t regret.
Best teacher ever
supperrrrrrrrrrrrrr boring teacher.. i felt like i was in a charlie brown cartoon when they are in class and all you hear is blahhhh blahhh blahh. he is a very nice guy though but not good for teaching morals and ethics, this should be thought by someone who can make the class fun, im surprised so many found him to be an awesome teacher.
He is a great teacher, although! everything he says during class, will show up in the text, word by word. He is very helpful and his class is great, he is a born teacher, which is something really hard to find sometimes. Everything is been told in class or you can look it up in the book. Awesome class.
I have taken Lenel for 2 courses. He is an excellent professor. The content really requires you to pay attention as it will make u stop & think..but he does an excellent job in relaying the information. Not many professors left out there like him..if you value learning, you will enjoy him.
EASY A!!! Although attendance is not mandatory, I strongly suggest you go to every class because he does give quiz and test questions during lectures. The easiest A I've earned so far :)
you dont need the book he provides with powerpoints, lectures,and handouts in angel easy A
Very nice guy. He breaks down the information. Don't be afraid to ask a question.
Awesome Prof. The best in his subject without doubts. Strongly recommended :)
Easiest professor ever. Don't need the book. Attendance doesn't matter. Nicest guy teaching at miami dade, doesn't get mad. No homework. Take his classes. I took both
Best professor ever. Very knowledgeble. He is very nice. Take him, no dobts...
Love this class. I studied from his handouts on angel. Easy a if you pay attention and take notes
Professor Lenel is great! He is passionate about what he teaches which makes it easy to follow in class. If you pay attention and review before the tests you will do very well. His tests come from what he teaches. He repeats a lot of things and it helps the info really sink in!
He is a very nice professor and easy going. I learned a lot with him. I strong suggest you to take him. Easy class if you come to class and pay attention. Easy A.
He is the best proffesor in his area. Classes are fun and interesting because he makes them that way. He is very helpful and always willing to help. Very easy class. I strongly recommend him.
Gret teacher!!! Love what he teaches. Best on his area. Classes are fun and interesting because he makes them that way. He is very helpful and always willing to help. Very easy class. I strongly recommend him.
Best on his area. Classes are fun and interesting because he makes them that way. He is very helpful and always willing to help. Very easy class. I strongly recommend him.
He is a great teacher. Love what he teaches. Makes the class interesting and fun. Strongly recommend him.
He is not a easy professor, but if you study you can pass. I highly recommend everyone to buy the book, because you need it to study. GOOD LUCK.
I find this class to be easy however the professor has absolutely no respect for your time. If you are planning on taking his class but rely on public trans or a ride from someone then dont take his class. He relies too much on the fact that he has late classes and delays the classes without considering the what obligations the students have.
Great professor. Eassy class. He explain everything very well. Exellent.
Prof. Lenel is one of the BEST professors MDC has! He makes it really easy to understand this course. There're several quizzes, but they aren't really difficult. The writing assignments are only 3 sentences, informal & based on your opinion. Pay attention in class, take notes, view the PowerPoint presentations, and you'll do well! Forget the book!
Take him. He is the besttt !!
Lenel is a good teacher, he gets all technical in his way of talking and needs to have students interact more but other than that i would recommend his class.
HE EXPLAINS EVERYTHING WITH DETAILS. HOWEVER, YOU HAVE TO TAKE NOTES AND STUDY FOR HIS QUIZES. I PASSED THE CLASS WITH AN A. SOME PEOPLE DIDNT BUT THEY DIDNT TAKE THE CLASS SERIOUSLY. HE IS A VERY NICE GUY, POLITE AND WELL EDUCATED. I LEARNED A LOT WITH HIM. EASY A IF YOU STUDY, TAKE NOTES, AND PUT EFFORT. I STRONG RECCOMMEND HIM
Lectures most of class but he is CRYSTAL when making you understand.DO NOT BUY THE BOOK!All his lectures are online and presentations about everything he covers!He is extremely helpful and wants you to learn but his quizzes are TRICKY!make sure you know your stuff or guaranteed you will scrape by or even fail! GREAT PROFESSOR!!
He's a great prof. He can't stand still he's always walking. But I love him he's funny. You do have to study to pass his test but over all I give him 5 stars I do recommend him.
This is THE BEST PROFESSOR in the whole wide world! The guy has some type of gift for teaching the way it is supposed to be done! Even though the subject is tricky, a lot of us got A in this class just because he is SOOO CLEAR and his examples are great!, he gives simple handouts and audio clips for you to listen to his lecture again at home.
As you probably read in previous comments, THIS IS THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER GUYS!!! I just have no words! Prof. Lenel is very very good. HW is easy as hell. You need to know how to write!, lol. He hates people looking at other students tests. HE WILL GIVE YOU THE PERFECT EXAMPLES! There is no mistake on this professor's personality. I just love him!
I took him for the 6- week summer class. It was accelerated, but it was worth it. He is great, he is entertaining and funny. I never thought the ethical theories would be so esay with his exanations.. Take him
This professor is very difficult. He is all philosohical to the point where it's hard to make sense of what he's saying. His tests are hard and confusing. Moreover, every time you learn about a new philosopher, he adds it on to the next test. You really have to know your material because in the end he tests you on all the philosophers from day one.
His class overall is easy, the quizzes and tests are a piece of cake and his clarity is crystal and he is helpful. What I didn't like is how repetitive he tends to be, there are certain subjects I wish he'd gone into just a little more detail. All in all, take him, you won't regret it.
I think that he is a great professor! He is very clear and caring. He wants you to pass...You don't need the book since he provides the class lectures and slides online. You do have to study for the tests but as long as you pay attention you will be ok.
I am a student where English is my second language and I thought that this class was going to be so difficult to me, but The professor do everything super easy. Yes! you have to study or at least going to class to be prepared for the quiz. He is very nice & funny. Don't be afraid of taking the class. He is A+. Good luck.
Undoubtdly one of the best teachers i have ever had in my life. He makes the entire class and material very easy to understand. His lectures and powerpoints are really all you need to pass the class. Also he tells some of the funniest stories during class that anyone can relate to. All in all i give him a 10 outta 10. Pick him for somefun learning.
One of the best professors in MDC. I've taken him twice PHI2010 and PHI2604, he makes class easy and knows what hes talking about. You do not need the textbook, just make sure you go to class and take good notes. He gives plenty of material in Angel. Take him you wont regret it.
Excellent professor I recommend you to take class with him
Prof. Lenel is one of the best prof. at mdc. Gives a lot of extra credits. He makes the class easy. i recommend him 100000%. :-)
The best professor I've ever had. The class was always interesting, he gives reviews. He is the best.
Great Prof. One of the best professors at MDC. Easy tests and quizzes. U would never fall asleep in any of his classes.
HE IS great teacher!he provides online study guides that are great to sum up his lectures. helets you know all test and quiz dates and always relates the lectures to real life situations. an easy A if your willing to at least review the hand outs. i rented the book, didnt even use it. quizzes 20 questions
This professor is the best!!! If you pay attention to his classes and hear the clips that he posts on angel you will get an A for sure. A very nice guy, he is not that strict with the punctuality or the assistance, but you better don't loose any single class. I highly recommend this professor.
Great professor. He can be redundant in every lecture, but it is good for some of us that have a hard time studying because it helps you remember the important points. Take his class.
This professor was very informative, and i did enjoy his class. i am going to take his class aswell in spring 2015 for critical thinking and ethics. He also had a lot of information available online, very helpful. i do recommend this teacher.
Professor Lenel is a sweetheart. Every time he wants to explain something he makes a funny story to make you understand the point. He doesn't care that much for punctuality, but I highly recommend not to skip a class. He makes several quizzes, but if you listen to his videos online, you will find those, extremely easy. I'm so glad I took him.
Good professor knows what hes teaching, if you dont get something he will go over until you get it.
This professor is amazing . You need to study for the quizes and the midterm and the final but he explain clearly everyhing plus he gives you powerpoints that you can read and helps you a lot. really good professor !!!!!!!!
Great professor. Very professional and to the point. Had him for an 6 week class and would do it again. He tells you exactly what you have to read, what will be on the test and is a fair grader. You always know what your grade is and he's there should you need help. Follow the syllabus and you're good.
Professor Lenel is the most helpful, outstanding professor MDC has to offer. I took him for into to philosophy, and I'm taking him again for Critical Thinking. He has no surprises in his class everything is very clear and he gives you a fair chance on all his quizzes. I couldn't have taken a better professor.
I recommend professor Lenel, He loves his job, I took phi2010 and was really easy, I would take him again for phi2604. 6 quizzes but he drops 2 of them, midterm and final.
He is an amazing teacher. He loves what he does and is proud of it. Definitely one of the best professors at MDC.
Nice guy and his lectures are interesting but he didn't really give us much to work with in terms of notes. I found myself having to turn to the textbook a lot. The tests are hard and sometimes things he never went over in class shows up on them. I ended up with a 'B' but I had to work for it.
Very good professor, take good notes gives you EVERYTHING! I bought the book but never opened it, has power points (and makes it available for you!), even records his voice like in class! If you can keep up and show a little interest in class you will pass EASY. If you are not interested and doesn't care about philosophy don't even try.
Amazing professor , he gives the essay questions for the quiz ahead of time , so students can get ready for it. he never gives pop quizzes and he always have remainders on the board. He is very accessible , you can always call him , email him or go to his office . I took him first for Phi2010 and then for Phi2604 and in both I didnt by the book .
Best Professor! I had an amazing Ethic Class. He enjoy teaching and thats something that is going to take your attention ! It is an easy A - just a few quizzes , one midterm and final !
One of the best teacher I met, with clear and multiple supports, on time. He is always summarizes every theories; adds one by one every concept with the precedent with fun and kindness. Textbook is not useful.
Assigns a lot of work especially for the 8 week term. Online writing, in class writing, 6 quiz, 4 essays, midterm, final, Reflection paper and 5pg research paper (GSELS) all in 8 weeks. It is a lot but he makes it doable where you're not overwhelmed no test/quiz reviews but they are generally short and easy if you study but difficult if you don't
Listening to his lectures can be tough at times because likes to tell stories. Make sure to read his powerpoints and handouts that he posts in Blackboard and you will do really well in this class. You don't really need the textbook for this course.
He is a amazing professor also cares about the environment. there were like 6 quizzes, a refletion paper, a research a final... but he tells what can be on the test. Check the handouts and audio records to do online writing asigments. I loved his class!
He is a great professor. He gives you a total of 8 exams but does drop 2 of the lowest so that is extremely helpful. Most of the content is available on Blackboard, just review the PowerPoint and handouts and you'll be set for the exams. One of the most helpful professors in MDC.
Great professor and great person!! The best professor ever. He made me to love Philosophy. He cares about the students and his lectures are amazing. I took Philosophy for credits, but I definitely recommend this professor. If you take him, you will be glad!!!
Mind blowing lectures
Professor Lenel teaches a really great class. He makes the subject interesting and relevant, while also keeping it easy to understand. He very clearly knows what he's talking about, which is a pleasure to see as a student. I would definitely suggest to anyone interested in ethics to take his class!
best professor ever
Professor Lenel was amazing. He has a clear grading level and the test are simple as long as you study the powerpoints. The book isn't really necessary. Overall, the test and homework are super simple. If you show up and pay attention you will pass.
To be honest I wasn't really interested in this class at first but I found myself using terminology from this class in my everyday life. Man this guy is good, give him a chance you'll see what I mean. As for the class the test are quite simple as long as you remember things clearly. However be prepared for those essay questions.
He gives really good lectures. This professor makes Philosophy easy by breaking it down slowly. He provides notes, study guides and more online so its very easy to pass if you miss class. His test are exactly whats on the study guides. Test are easy and gives easy homework once a week.
I love this class. I was scared at the beginning, but he made it easier. If you need extra credits for sure you will have it. You need to study hard because the quizzes, but his lecture are awesome. So happy that I had this experience with a excellent professor. If you need to take this class take him without thinking it twice. 5 stars for him.
I took Lenel for both PHI 2010 and PHI 2604. Lenel has to be one of the best professors in campus because he has a unique way of making his real life stories and scenario very entertaining and relative to the class material. His material on Blackboard is very useful and is extremely helpful for studying. I got an "A" in both courses.
The best professor in MDC ! He knows a lot about the subject, finds a way to make the class interesting, he's funny and let's you make up your quizzes. Study the handouts and you will pass your quizzes ! I definitely recommend professor Lenel !
Professor Lenel is great, very easy and barely any homework. His test are exactly what he went over in the lectures, did not need the book for introduction to philosophy or critical thinking. Would 100% take again if need be.
This class is not easy if you're not into philosophy. It starts off very confusing. For the time I'm taking him, he's asking for too many assignments including a research paper, a reflection paper and etc. This professor will definitely keep you busy throughout the whole term.
Best professor, Mr. Lenel will always have your back!!! But you gotta really try cause you know that colleges isn't for wimps. Its a place to learn... deal with it. Plus he give out easy middle school grade assignment that anyone can do!!!!
Awesome professor would have love taking his class again. Easy work just need to pay attention and does his work correctly.
Attend lectures, use his course materials on blackboard it helps bigly. Overall easy class, and great professor. He explains it well, may be boring at times if you're not into the content. But take him he's a good caring professor.
Prof. Lenel is one of the BEST lecturers I've had in my 3 years of studying. He presents the material very clearly. Show up to class, take good notes, do some reading and the class will be a breeze.
He is one of the best professors I had have . He loves what he does + the class isnt hard as far as you dont miss classes and take notes . He also has helful content on blackboard . He is adorable
He is a wonderful professor, he does quizzes, writing assignments and is always likely to give you a relatable example of what he is lecturing about. Take notes and use his study guides and recorded lectures and powerpoints. This is not an easy A so you do want to take time to study before taking each quiz he is rather flexible with circumstances.
By far one of the best professors Ive had. Hes so funny and makes class very interesting! Recommend him 100%
Incredible Professor! His lectures were always interesting and thought provoking. The only thing that killed me was having this class till 10 at night but other than that it was a great! Really recommend using the handouts he posts on Blackboard, they were life savers.
Professor Lenel is amazing. I am currently taking PHI2010 and could not love it more. If you are into philosophy you will enjoy it alot and even if you arent he still makes the classes very fun. He is a complete sweetheart. Dont be lazy and study, the tests are easy as long as you go over the notes and reviews he gives out.
The perf lecturer! His lectures are always clear eresting. As long as yu take notes and STUDY them you will pass. BUT he does give 6 quizzes in total + a final and a midterm.. they are NOT difficult as long as yu pay attention to his lectures, take notes and ask questions. TAKE HIM! You will learn in this class. He makes it PHI interesting!
Loved this professor. It was one of the easiest class Ive ever taken and enjoy. Hes very flexible with students, and he explains everything clearly. It is difficult not to pass this class. If youre one of those students who think hes not a good teacher then you shoudnt even be in college to begin with. Hes definetly one of the best. I love him
Professor Lenel is one of the best professors I had have . He loves to teach , he is funny , he makes the class interesting . Take him you wont regret it
He's great! 6 quizzes, midterm & final & a few short, online HW assignments ! The 2 lowest quizzes will be dropped! If philosophy doesn't interest you, then his lectures will seem boring, YET they're all really informative! You can tell he's very passionate about his subject! He's very caring and cooperative!! Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
Professor Lenel is a good professor, but his lectures are so BORING and long! He's super passionate about philosophy and wants you to learn. There's SIX quizzes and two tests.. (mid-term and final) HE DOESN'T PROVIDE A STUDY GUIDE. So, is essential for you to show up to class and listen to everything he has to say.
Easy class to pass he gives a lot of quizzes and the lectures are really long but over all easy. Took him for both PHI2010 and PHI2604 and each have the same amount of quizzes and test. The book is also pretty affordable.
This professor is the BEST !!!! he is so funny and makes the class so interesting. TAKE HIMM I promise you wont regret it.
Professor Lenel is a sweetheart. My class was once a week and 3 hour long lectures. Takes advantage of the time and teaches what he has to teach. Interesting stories and gave us a lot of hw, 5 page research paper and quiz with an essay every class. EASY if you study for the quizzes, I passed with a B just because I didn't do the research paper.
Professor Lenel is a good teacher. He does requires txt book however I never used it and I still pass with a B. His lectures are long and a bit boring, but nothing to be concerned about its not so bad. If you study and do the homework youll pass his class with no problem. Overall his class is very easy, so I highly recommend anyone to take him.
Six quizzes with essays, one midterm with an essay and one final test with an essay, now add this, the homeworks and the research papers, one of 2 pages and the other of 5 pages. He doesn't give a study guide, her quizzes sometimes are easy, others tricky. It seems that he wants to see you fail.
He is the best professor at MDC so far because he is well mannered. It is very difficult to find a teacher who can teach or act properly. I appreciate his proper manner as a professor. I recommend students especially for female students to take his class. I will take his Ethics course and it will be my final general education class. Thank you, Y
He is a good guy, a good proffessor, he knows with detail what he is talking about and makes the class interesting.
Professor Lenel is a class act. He is professional, inspirational and teaches by talking about his own life experiences, which makes the class entertaining, in order to relate to his students. He encourages class participation and is very fair in his grading policy. He is definitely a professor I would recommend to future students.
Lenel was great and his anecdotes really help you understand the subject. There are quizzes every 2 weeks but if you study you'll be fine. You don't need the textbook unless you want more information.
Great professor, makes lectures very clear. He repeats what he says a lot, which becomes pretty redundant but it helps you remember the material. Many quizzes which include essays, a midterm, a final, and two papers. He's pretty lenient on grading the essays that come along with the quizzes as well as the two papers, just follow the given format.
Yes, if you're questioning taking him as a proffesor do it, you will not regret it. He makes the class in the beggining seem like its too much work lots of quizzes but oh my god the quizzes are so easy! and i'm really lazy in studying so for me to say that it's rare. He explains everything so clear, he's caring andvery attentive to the students.
Philisophy,Philosophy, either you love it or hate it. But one thing is certain, Professor Lenel makes it interesting and time flies when you're in his class. Study the power points for exams and you're good to go!
Great professor. Six multiple choice quizzes with 5 short essay response questions throughout the course, a light mid-term and straight-forward final. There are also 2 papers, and 8 writing assignments on Black Board. He's an empathetic & lenient professor. Just be honest & explain your issue to him. I honestly don't know how people fail with him.
This professor is the best in MDC for PHI. The way he explains the subject is very understanding and he does it so good that just by listening to him you will pass the tests. Super nice. The tests are very easy and not a lot, the homework is in blackboard with five sentence of a topic in class. He is open to questions. You wont regret it!
Inspiring Professor, well respected and passionate about Philosophy!
Good but get ready to listen to long talks
TAKE LENEL! He is fantastic. I am not fond of philosophy, but he made the subject easy and interesting. He is detailed and eloquent when he's lecturing. He truly knows what he's talking about. Part of me thinks he's a genius. He's soo kind and his class is REALLY easy as long as you study his powerpoints and listen to him.
Professor Lenel is a great person overall. He gives WAYYYY to much work. Writing assignments EVERY week and quizzes EVERY class and an essay question. there's 2 papers due one of 5 pages!!!!
This is my second class with prof. Lenel. Any students will do well with quizzes and exams if they pay attention to his lectures. Even though I am a STEM major, with his amazing lectures, I found myself enjoying philosophy and it became my favorite subject. Many philosophers are mathematicians so STEM students also enjoy his class! Thank you!!
He is extremely funny and easy to listen to. His lectures are very interesting since he ties it to real life all the time. I barely had to study due to how good his lectures were (except the first exam, which was vocabulary words). He is also very easy to talk to if you have any problems. I definitely recommend him!
You don't really need the book because he uploads lecture clips, notes, and handouts. There are about 8 discussion boards, essays that are 5 sentences min. that should be taken during class time, many quizzes, about 2 papers, midterm & final. You have enough time to do the work! He is very nice and easy to communicate with! Take him! No regrets!
He is a very nice professor and gives second chances. The only bad thing is its a lot of classwork, essays and tests.
Good professor overall!
I really disliked philosophy, until Professor Lenel. His lecture clips were amazing, presenting scenarios where the argument would stand, and giving examples greatly help with understanding the material. His PowerPoints were to the point and made sense. I greatly enjoyed the W.A.'s where you could give your opinion on the matter. Best professor!!
Prof is a sweetheart, u dont have to go to class, the hw is pretty easy, my only complaint would be that the hw is due randomly so its kinda hard to keep track of.
Amazing class and professor. We were given a list of all the assignments, including quizzes and tests, from the very first day, with all the corresponding due dates. Professor records lectures (super helpful) and gives pdf handouts and ppt presentations. Material and grading criteria clearly explained from the beginning. Very organized and fair.
This is an easy A and an easy class to understand. His lectures are PERFECT AND AMAZING! He also has "Handouts" - literally the quiz CHEAT SHEETS. Use them, and you get an A in his class. You also understand the topics in this class, he teaches the material very well.
Very good professor, specially for a philosophy class, the class is hard because of the subject but he gives you enough to pass the class.
Get ready for 8 discussion boards,6 quizzes,2 papers, 6 mini-essay quizzes, and non proctored midterm and final. He's a good professor but just gives out a lot of work. He's kind of a tough grader, but at the same time, he's not; it all depends.Also, he only gave extra credit twice.
Awesome professor. He tries to make the class very fun and energetic. I love his tone when he speaks, it shows that he loves teaching Philosophy to his students. Very generous with assignments and grades. Highly recommend.
I took this professor during summer I cant complain best professor ever
He is a very good teacher the class is made up of around 8 writing assig, quizzes,essays, mid-term,final, reflection paper, research paper. Although is a lot is fairly easy. The writing ass is min 5 sencte, the essays are around 10 sen. the research is 5 pages. You will have enough time to complete them and all the assignments are due the same day.
The best professor ever! Teaches with passion and gives easy and duable assignments. Essays, discussions, quizzes on each Module and two exams: midterm and final. Tests are all based on material and handouts he gives us in class. He is also a very understanding professor. You wont regret him.
I had a great experience taking the majority of my philosophy courses with Lenel. Extremely cool and open professor. You learn a lot in a wholesome manner that challenges you in all the right ways.
Professor Lenel was one of the best professors i've taken in MDC. his concepts and how he teaches his lectures are good if you WANT TO LEARN. there is a lot of assignment's but if your paying attention in class you should be able to pass his class with an A. Exams are not proctored.
Mr. Lenel loves his lectures and he's good at it, class participation is appreciated by him. Provides lots of hand outs and is very resourceful. I highly recommend him. Study the handouts and complete your assignments and you'll do just fine.
Great guy
Explains the material clearly and assist when needed, great teacher
Quite a few assignments, midterm and final, great teacher
Everything is crystal clear from the beginning. Interesting lectures. Quizzes, essays, and discussion boards. That's all. Once a week, you spend a couple of hours outside the class, and you'll succeed in this class. This is from someone who hates Philosophy.
Professor Albert Lenel is a good professor to take for phi2604 and there is lots of work but everything has a due date and you will need to write a 5 page paper but it is easy. Great Professor to take.
Professor Lenel is one of the most caring professors that I have ever had at MDC. He truly believes in what he teaches and does it with excellence. His class is super easy his exams are based on handouts/powerpoints so I advise you to not rely on outside sources. 10/10 would recommend
Super easy great professor , must pay attention, 10/10
he was great! i consider the hw amount to be fair but it is a lot of writing, pretty easy tho. I actually enjoyed everything assigned, he gives extra credit too! Easy A if you do the work. Quizzes, discussions and short essays + 5-page essay but it was easy. Mid and final but non-proctored.
This man is very knowledgeable in his field of study, Philosophy. Assignments include at least one discussion board post weekly, several timed exams and essays, a midterm, and a final. His demeanor is amiable and he seems passionate in conveying his lectures, which I find admirable! Grading criteria are fairly justifiable and balanced. Choose him!
Professor is very passionate about his work ! He is a talker. Very easy course to pass. He is very organized and sends out reminders !
Amazing professor, very clear instructions and great material.
I've taken this teacher twice and would take him again if I could. The tests are either short essays(2 paragraphs)or 15 question tests. The answers are always found in the power points or modules. The only homework is a response post every week or so and its only one paragraph. There is a book for this class, I never got it and was fine without it.
Great teacher amazing lessons would recommend to anyone interested in art or philosophy
6 quizzes, 8 writing assignments, 6 essays, 1 midterm, 1 final. attendance isn't mandatory, essay W.A is 5 sentences minimum. I did all the assignments to the best of my ability and got a B, 80%. nothing was proctored, i would recommend him but i just suggest to read through the stuff he uploads. Really nice grandpa like guy
He is very passionate about philosophy. There are a lot of assignments but they are easy. He gives good lectures.
Professor Albert Lenel for my Introduction to Philosophy course is, so far, my most favorite professor and class during this semester. He is thorough with his lectures and explanations and uses clear and concise examples to help the students understand the material better. Also, he's very funny and lighthearted. A great academic experience.
Professor Lenel truly cares about his students and wants them to succeed. He is passionate about philosophy. He provides handouts, lecture clips, and PowerPoint that are very thorough. I still recommend listening to his lectures because he points out common mistakes and provides good examples through very memorable stories. Loved this class.
Too many assignment but all are easy. And he is super cool. Take this class if you want an easy A.
Engaging professor who makes philosophy accessible. Lots of work but manageable with focus. unstuckstudy great for study prep alongside lectures and textbook.
I really enjoyed his class for the most part, but he got super political and tried to debate students... thought it was unprofessional. Good Professor though. The course was easy.
My absolute most favorite professor at MDC. This is my second time taking him. All assignment info can be found in the textbook and in his lectures. His lectures are entertaining, engaging, and thought provoking. He cares about his students learning the material. Overall, great professor through and through. I look forward to taking him again.
Very great and chill professor. He is the type of prof. to open assignments (essays/quizzes/ midterm/finals) after the class ends, you have 2 days to complete it, but it is easy. The essays (6 in total) give you 3 questions, and you only answer one. The W.A are easy points to boost your grade so do it. He always gives reminders of hw deadlines :)
Very good professor! So kind and very very knowledgeable. Took his philosophy class and next semester I am taking his ethics class. Max 2 assignments every week but are about the topics discussed in class. Quizzes are online and are 10 questions each.
His class is AMAZING! I recommend him to anyone who considers it! Super easy work and he provides LOTS of clear information through lecture and in the modules on Canvas.
I took him online live and was amazing. Very understanding, gives you an oppertunity to turn in late work. He just wants you to turn in your camera. He gives a midterm and final but its really a quiz.
Professor is sweet and very lecture heavy, the assignments are usually 1-3 of them and due 2 days after the class was taken. If you want a “no work” or “easy work” class, I'd look somewhere else but this professor is very good and you will learn all there is with philosophy. Definitely recommend for those who don't mind a tight deadline with hw.
It makes you want to be in class all the time. They always ask questions that make you think from more than one perspective. I love it. They're kind, know how to connect with students, and have a good heart.
Philosophy is a hard subject but Albert made the class easy. Take him.
so sweet and nice person. I LOVE HIM .GOD BLESS HIM
