i've had him two semesters in a row and he can be quite pompous from time to time, but it's easy to pass the class. 3 papers and no final (for freshman english). his grading is weird and he's awkward, but he's clear about assignments and papers. the class goes by pretty fast so it's not too bad.

Professor Green is a nice guy, and I guarantee that if you take his class, you will be challenged and learn new techniques to become a better writer. This class inspired me to Minor in English and helped me realize my writing potential.

He tries to be helpful. He's available to meet with students, but tries to be an emotional support rather than an academic one at times. Assignments often seem nothing but busy work, but the essays can be challenging for Freshmen. Grading techniques are curious. He seems very easily impressed by papers obviously written with a thesaurus in each hand masquerading as a strong vocabulary.

The class is challenging, you definitely cannot bs your way through it. The grade is basically 3 essays. Class discussions are fun, he never will just tell you your idea is wrong, he'll just ask for textual support. I loved his class. I went in hating literature, and by the end of the semester, I had a true appreciation for it. I left a better writer as well, and the difficulty was worth it. He was there to help academically, and with personal problems. I highly reccomend his class!

He is an excellent teacher and a great guy. He does like to challenge you to write well, and he does have relatively high standards, but his class is very rewarding. His class is also very fun, and I sometimes even miss it. I would reccomend this class only if you are a decent writer to start with.

He's really nice and helpful.... cute butt.

Not a bad teacher, though at times selfish and arrogant. Will do little to help students; definitely won't go out of his way to do so.

wow... this class was way intense. he gives you a lot of work, but if you take advantage of the help he will give you outside of class (which is limitless), and you attend class (HUGE, he does not mess around when it comes to absences), your writing will improve, you just have to be ready to work hard. he is a very hard grader.

He's probably the best English teacher I've ever had. He's tough but not so much that you feel like you want to kill yourself. He's respectful of ideas and really encourages class discussion. He has no problem talking to students about papers and offers lots of help and if you take advantage of what he offers you should do great.

i liked green alot. the subject was boring as hell. and though he came off as being a strict teacher, he was very courteous and gave back alot of feedback which def helped my writing. overrall, good teacher

You will learn a ton in this class but there is a lot of work. He is very interested in your education and the class and expects the same of you, just for the class I hope. If you follow his recomendations and ask for extra help and follow it you will get an A in his class.

Great teacher, but don't expect an easy A. He focuses a lot on the process on writing and really helps you develop your skills as a writer. Only 3 big papers throughout the semester and not too much reading at all, but definitel challenges you to work on the writing process. I would reccomend him if you want to improve your skills as a writer, but

This class was very helpful to my development of writing. He is very nice and class discussion are alot of fun.His class gave me the opportunity to make friends. Take advantage of his office hours. His class is based on 3 papers and there are three long readings. Never tells you one is wrong just looks for evidence.Writing topics are unique.

Professor Green can either be a teacher you really love or really hate. He comes off as a jerk sometimes, but he's really a good-hearted guy who wants you to work really hard and has some fun doing it. His classes are informal and you can say anything you want as long as you can back it up. If you life discussions and proving your point, he's great

Calls on people in class which is kinda annoying especially if you arent paying attention. Interesting class though as far as an English class goes. Three papers 4-5 pages each.

He's a pretty hard grader, but the class can be interesting and funny. He's pretty understanding. Grade is based on 3 essays, class participation, and homework which is usually online postings about the works being studied. Dont take him if you want an A

i personally like him as a person and he's a great teacher. I definitely grew a lot as a student from his class but I will say that it was ALOT of work. For every paper I went in to see him twice and went to the writing center. I would have at least a couple of drafts for every paper, so decide if its worth your time and effort.

He is a very tough grader, take advantage of his office hours, he loves students who show concern for their essay's, and grade for the class. If you follow his criteria you should do fine, but his class is A LOT of work...but he helped me become a better writer in the end.

real bad. don't take.

Andrew Green is helpful at times when at office hours or by appointment. However, his grading scheme is all over the place. He does not grade on the quality of the essay and thinks a C on a paper is good. The good part is there are only 3 papers but some of the minor assignments are useless. Movie nights are a waste of time. I do not recommend.

Awesome professor. If you want to learn, take him. He is extremely helpful, and will put out a little extra effort to help you if you ask nicely. You will need to work, and spend some time on your essays. Never leave your reading until the morning before class... Highly recommended.

I don't get all the comments. I mean, yeah, he's difficult and yeah there is a lot of reading, but it's like no one expected to work or do anything when they came here. It's kind of embarassing. I mean he told me what to do when I got a bad grade and he told me how to do it again and I did better. You learn a lot.

After taking 106 with him after 105, I firmly believe the Professor Green is one of the best professors at UM. He's incredibly helpful with regard to everything in class, and will spend a lot of time and effort working with you to improve your writing. And the best part is that he does it because he truly cares, not just because it's his job.

Gives 1 bonus pt for perfect attendance. As long as you work hard on your essays and show him your effort and participate in class, you can get an A - he raises your grade depending on your effort. He's a hard grader but he's extremely helpful if you ask for it. You'll learn a lot from him. Also for essays, you get a lot of peer review.

You get what you put in. He's very willing to help students during office hours. I was almost never bored in his class. If you want an easy A don't take him. If you want a teacher that has a passion for what he does and are willing to be prepared for class discussions, then you'll enjoy this class.

Professor Green makes the class fun, engaging, and helps the time pass quickly. He's a nice guy who seems to have a passion for this subject. However, the class does require a lot of work. Be ready to read a lot! Also, in my opinion, he expects a bit too much for the essays. You will learn a lot though.

Very helpful if you go to his office hours. He is a very committed person who honestly wants to give people an A if they deserve it. If you put yourself into the subject and really engage, you can get a good grade. His class discussions are actually very interesting and thought provoking. Hard class but I thoroughly enjoyed my experience. Great guy

Dr. Green is sarcastic and witty. He wants to give As to those who deserve it. To those of you who can write, his class is very easy. He is always willing to help. Keep up the participation and always do online postings. Showing up to class is a must.

He grades very harshly for a class that is mainly for freshmen. I've only ever gotten As in previous English classes, but I got Bs on all my essays. People in other sections of English 105 have told me how easy it is to get an A, so if you're really concerned about your GPA take this from another professor.

Professor Green is one of my favorites at UM. Disregard any negative reviews. If you simply check over your work like you are supposed to and don't procrastinate, then you will do fine. The class is built for peer review and draft writing, and of course your going to get a bad grade if you don't put in any effort. TAKE HIM.

Amazing Professor, very helpful, assignments are clear, offers to guide you throughout your papers, gives great advice

I was never a fan of English courses in high school but I still did fairly well - mainly B's. I really liked Greens class though, he made class as witty and interesting as he could and was always there to help you with your papers.

Go to class and do your work on time. There are easier teachers

Green is actually a very caring professor. He wants his students to succeed, but he also wants them to respect him. If you fail to come to class, do your work, or respect him/peers in class, you will not pass. Other than that, you do have to work hard to write a solid paper but he give great feedback during office hours and commends extra work.

Green is a really good professor and the class taught me a lot about my own writing. But that being said, in order to get a good grade you definitely need to come to class, get your drafts done, participate especially during peer reviews, and use the peer reviews to your advantage.

took Mr green both semesters of freshman year and thought he was amazing! keeps lectures interesting and really cares about the students and remembers details about each. wish he taught more classes so that I could take him again, gives good feedback and made me a stronger writer

Dr Green uses a 3 step torture approach via 3 essays. Sir Green loves implications; any mention sends Professor Green into an "A+" frenzy. The Master Overlord of the Seas might be a little nearsighted and Vice Chancellor Green often confuses students, but don't blame it on His Excellency; Lord and Savior Green XI Jr. Sr. simply forgot his glasses.

Professor Green is very friendly and approachable. Attendance is mandatory, but his class is interesting. His essay process was sometimes annoying because much of the grade goes into outlines/annotations/peer reviews and his comments could be vague. However, I do believe he grades fairly and he loves giving extra credit on blackboard assignments.

Andrew Green is a very interesting and passionate teacher. His class requires you to read short stories and watch movies that are in very good taste. Class discussions are very engaging. Essays are a lot of work and require you to think abstractly and outside the box. I learned a lot about my writing as well as philosophy from this class.

you have to be super engaged in class and do the readings, but he makes class really interesting and fun!!

I honestly loved professor Green and his attitude toward teaching. This was the one class I looked forward to, and the class discussions were always engaging. He does grade essays quite hard, but you can tell he wants his students to succeed, so its important to email him or go to office hours if you're struggling with a paper.

Green is an amazing English teacher. If you've never been challenged in writing, you will now. You have to work for your grade and sometimes he has weird deadlines, but you will actually learn in his course. He grades tough, but also leaves a lot of room to prove your dedication to a paper and improve your grade. Don't wait till the last minute!

One of the best teachers I have ever had. He challenges you to think outside of the box and be better. Anyone who is on here complaining is truly just lazy. You may think that it is a time consuming class but when you actually finish the assignments it improves thinking and grows you as a person. And that's what college is supposed to be about.

Prof. Green is such a caring person and he genuinely wants to help you. Yes, there are a lot of assignments but theyre super interesting and thought provoking. His essays make you think a lot but the process makes you a better writer after the class. Definitely take him!

He really helps you improve your writing, meeting with him outside of class is really helpful. He really cares about his students' success and is willing to give you as much feedback as you need. He also values hardwork so try your best to exceed expectations. Also tries to make sure grade isn't based on big papers only, there are other assignments

Green will definitely make you work for a good grade but his class is totally worth it. You will come out of the class a better writer for sure. Just put effort in on the homework (which is easy), participate in class once in a while, and don't put off the essays til the night before and you'll do great. Best prof I've had so far.

The class is very participation heavy everyone has a voice in the class. This makes the classroom a lot less intimidating. Gives credit where credit is due and is flexible with deadlines always trying to encourage students to do what they feel will help them produce the best work. You will see improvement in your writing.

Andrew Green is an amazing professor. I'm not sure why he has any bad ratings to begin with, but I am here to encourage you to take his class. At first, there were various annoying homework assignments, however, once you got those few over with, there were just 3 remaining papers for the semester. He is very nice and wants his students to succeed.

Going into the class, I was nervous because of his reviews but as long as you put in the work, you will be fine. He can tell if you spent a lot of time on your papers and if you haven't so don't write them in one night. He gives thorough feedback on essays and is available to meet and discuss them.

You definitely need to put a lot of effort into writing the essays in this course. There are many short assignments so one bad grade won't hurt you. He gives very thorough feedback for your rough drafts and many classes are spent improving your writing ability. He is a very nice teacher who has a lot of interesting stories to tell.

Professor Green is one of my favorite teachers I've ever had. However, there is a lot of homework and 3 essays that are graded tough, so it is a lot of work to succeed in it. You will learn how to be a great writer.

Professor Green genuinely improved my writing skills. The course includes three major essays and regular homework, so it requires consistent effort. If you stay on top of the work, the class is manageable and rewarding. Bad reviews are those who don't show that they care about the class
