I woudln't give Mr. Brown the best rating because he was sometimes very unclear about how to do things. You read Hayy Potter, and he tries to make assignments relate,, but sometimes they just don't. So if you want a class where you do nothing and learn next to nothing, take his class.

Be prepared: By the end of the semester, you will cringe every time you hear the name "Harry Potter". He will Harry potter you to death. There is a very informative text book for the class, and what he does is he tried to tie what is learned in the textbook to Harry Potter and then turns it into a project. He's super hilarious, easy to talk to about problems, and nobody can wear a Trading Spaces jersey like Andy Brown can!

Dr. Brown is a good guy, willing to work with you, affable. However, I feel I have learned relatively little in the way of English and composition. His assignments are open ended to a fault. Also has a tendency to ramble, but if you're just looking to ace your English classes, Brown is the man.

This professor is very understanding. He even announces that he knows you have many responsibilities other than his class. The readings are on an easy level. Assignments are grades based on what you think was important in the prompt. Must shadow someone you admire, which creates connections to use in further classes. Must take!

You'll never have a professor as laid back & understanding as Mr. Brown. Very little outside work. Most of the time you'll wonder how any of it is even relevant. It all makes sense in the end, though, if you actually do it. Gets side tracked talking about the weather & other things often, but you learn to appreciate it. Count on a "hypothetical A."

Extremely caring professor that canceled class half the time (due to cancer, for which he was later fired) and was extremely lenient with deadlines and his grading. He actually understands that we have other classes, and canceled most of our assignments. Allows cell phones and requires laptops, and gave me an A though I deserved a C at best.
