I love Brother Burger. AMAZING. He explains things so well and has ultimately made me interested in sociology. His quizzes are a challenge IF YOU DON'T READ.

Bro. Burger was such a good teacher! He was very excited and knew what he was talking about. As long as you do the readings you will do fine in the class because each week everything is based on the readings you did. You do have to write a short 2 page paper each week but it wasn't bad at all. I would definitely recommend him!!

Brother Burger loves what he does; class is straightforward and very well thought out. With a few tweaks, things like Stratified Monopoly should never go away. He can lean a little on the liberal political thought sometimes, but it's mild, and that shouldn't really stop anyone from taking him. Also, his kids are adorable, give this man 2 peppers.

Although attendance isn't taken everyday, IF YOU DON'T SHOW UP TO CLASS TO TAKE THE DAILY QUIZ, you will lose a ton of points. (I made that mistake regularly) The only thing you get graded on is those daily quizzes, and about four or five assignments the entire semester. If you can make it to every class period, you are ready for an A+.

Easy A class while learning very interesting things. I put tops 10 minutes into this class a week and got 100%. Burger is a funny guy who wants you to succeed. He made it easy to understand and didn't shy away from asking important controversial questions. 10/10

I love Brother Burger. He is genuinely my favorite professor I've had so far. His class is very lecture heavy but he keeps it interesting. The exams are in the testing center and he allows a notecard and gives you a week to complete it. He also posts study guides for each exam. TAKE THIS CLASS!!!!

I love Bro. Burger! He is such an amazing professor. If you are taking Soc111 take him! You won't regret it. Not much homework is given, and his tests are easy. He deserves so much more recognition, and I hope his students see that in him. Defiantly will take again if given the chance.

Brother Burger is just flat-out the best professor at BYUI. He is engaging and teaches the curriculum very well. He makes the course content applicable to your life and is very funny. Also, the assignments and tests are extremely easy, and this will be one of the easiest A's you will ever get.

I love Brother Burger! The homework is a perusall reading due before class, but all assignments had a 48 hour grace period with no penalty, which was so nice because I was never stressed over his assignments. Exams all have a study guide and are allowed a notecard of notes, but if you pay attention in class they're pretty straight forward!

Brother Burger is an amazing guy. His lectures are incredible and funny. His Intro to Sociology course is an easy A, all you have to do is show up and do the work! (The work is also very easy.)

Brother Berger is amazing. He understands that soc 111 is an intro class and things were really easy. We had a reading assignment each class via perusall, a couple in-class projects/assignments, and very easy exams each unit. He is caring, knows his stuff, and his lectures are so funny. I loved his class and will recommend him to everyone. 20/10

Brother Burger was FANTASTIC!! I took his SOC 111 class + he did a great job at applying what we learned into our lives (all classmates were not sociology majors). He made sure to answer every question he got when someone needed clarification w/o making them feel bad or confused. I loved his lessons bc of his presentations + interactive activities.

Burger is hilarious, caring, and really passionate! In class, you typically have a lecture/discussion and homework is quick, easy, and sometimes even interesting Perusall readings. He gives you a study guide for every test, there are multiple extra credit options, and 3-4 "projects" that aren't very hard at all. Such a fun and interesting class!

Brother Burger is VERY caring and funny. Like he's just super caring about us and his laugh is awesome. You'll know what I mean. The readings are very manageable. 3 pages at times. He does use perusal, but the readings are interesting and short, so it's fine. He also just teaches you so much about people and relates it to the gospel so well!

I LOVE Bro Burger, one of the greatest professors at this school! He knows what he is talking about, cares for his students, his lectures are engaging, and his assignments are always interesting and applicable to your learning. The class is textbook heavy - as all psych and soc classes are but his lectures really help you understand the content.

This is the second class (SOC 111 and SOCIO 362 Socio of Mental Health) that I've taken with Brother Burger and he is by far one of my favorite professors ever. He's SO real and kind and will work with you. He clearly loves what he teaches. His uses perusall and does group projects depending on the class. He's mindful with how he grades. Love him!
