The person who plagiarized is a Class A example of why the human race is doomed. What an awful person to take advantage, and then brag about it. If the teacher ever reads that, then I'm sure the class will be ruined for everyone else. Thanks a lot, you useless lump. Here's hoping you get caught. Chances are you will.

He may have good looks. However, he comes off as a failed writer whose stuck teaching college students to make ends meet. He gives off an anti-feminist vibe in my opinion. He also seems to talk about a non-existing girlfriend. From first hand experience, he seemed intimidated by strong femininity and independent women, and may lash out during class

He is an outstanding professor who actually cares about making sure the information put forth in class is understood. Helps with anything needed by student from him. Loves helping you after class. He is always upbeat and funny. Show up for all classes on time, cut cell phones off, pay close attention in class, do ALL work and assignments on time.

He is definitely one of the best professors at nova. I had him for english 111 and he assigned 4 essays and one fallacy exam. If you go to class and do all your assignments you will be beyond fine. He is also very nice and offers academic advice in his office :) Professor Young is there for you. He made our class so fun and educating.

professor Andrew Young is a good professor but if English is not your native language, please stay away from him. He will mess you up.

In a single word - AMAZING! He makes 3 hours move quickly. Yes, he makes you read a lot. Yes, he makes you write a lot. Yes, you have to attend. It's COLLEGE!! So--if you DO NOT like to read and write and LEARN, take someone else!! College is NOT supposed to be a walk in the park - if you're looking for an easy A, don't take his class.

I never met someone so willing to go out of his way to help. If you ask, he will help! I can't say enough great things about him--I'm even thinking about changing my major because of his classes. Also, he wrote a children's book for his kids. Pretty cool. He's the type of professor who you would want to be your friend after a few interactions.

Thank goodness he didn't become an architect! He'd be building "crappy bridges in Woodbridge and defending them!" For those who have taken him, you'll get that joke; for those who haven't, you'll find out. I love Mr. Young! And so will you. He will make you a better writer, thinker, and person. I'm forever thankful for being in his company.

He's actually had experience with a variety of students and i can definitely say that he rolls with everyone no matter where you come from. His lectures are never boring. He's very funny and relates well with the students. He gives everyone the opportunity to learn the language. He's an amazing teacher. I just wish he taught ENG 112. Take him!!

If I had a chance to take this professor again, I would. He has a great plan to help you learn and he really loves his job. He's really cool to talk to about advice and his class is straightforward.

He is one cool cat: he wears a blazer with Air Jordans. Who does that?! His classes are fascinating, and he has a step-by-step model that makes writing understandable! Never met a more passionate guy when it comes to writing. Take him if you can, but expect to write! It's like BOOT CAMP. Nonstop writing...
