He's very interesting and keeps you entertained with his jokes. Very good.

The best Professor at Bergen. Learned a ton and enjoyed his teaching style. Be prepared to talk in class.

He is an easy and humorous professor,but you learn a little bit less than other teachers who are very boring.If you just want to pass, it's a good idea to choose his classes.

if you to take a winter class please take him he's the best you won't regret it. the online class is super easy, no exams. I loooooooooooooooooove him, he's the best prof. at bcc. I took his class last winter 2015

Professor Altano is probably the easiest grader I've had at Bergen. Although I tend to be a good writer, there were 2 papers I wrote in 20 minutes that I got A's on. As long as you participate in the discussions as well as hand in every paper, it's an easy A. He also gives you a ton of extra credit opportunities. I would strongly recommend him

HE'S THE BEST! Literally if you do the assignments he gives every few weeks and do the paper at the end of the class you will pass with a good grade. He grades very quickly as well as sends email reminders of when assignments are due so you wont miss them. TAKE HIM HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Professor Altano is a really great person and a really great professor. I enjoyed all the classes and I really learned a lot.

Professor Altano is the best. I'm so happy that I took his class. His online class is so simple, doesn't have information pollution. Essays, discussions, quizzes and a term paper at the end. Follow the weeks and you'll be getting A. You'll see how amazing he is. I wish I could take WRT 201 from him but I guess he doesn't teach. Highly recommended!!

Great Professor! Very interesting and progressive classes. I wish I could take all credits with him ;)

Would take any course with him, detailed and constructive feedback

Amazing prof. I took this as a winter class and it was the best decision, term paper was 10pages but it was sooo easy and writing is usually my worst subject. Good grader and all the assignments and discussions were fun and easy, please take him if u wanna pass would recommend him.

Took his Summer 2 online Course. It was a really easy course.

amazing prof, took the winter course which was 2 1/s weeks and had an essay due every 3 days for and the essays and discussions weren't that hard but some what challenging, the essays were fun to write and the discussions too, overall really good and fair grader will def take again. just don't slack bc you will fall behind :)

I took this class over winter break and the professor was great. There's a quiz, discussion board, and essay due every few days (if you take the winter course). The term paper was only 5-7 pages. Overall the class was pretty easy and he's a fair grader. However, I don't recommend procrastinating because you will fall behind.

He is an excellent professor. you will struggle a little bit to contact him (since I took all my classes with him online) but eventually, he will respond. he reminds you to do your assignment days before.

Prof Altano's WRT101 is a breeze - essays and discussions are engaging, and he's a fair grader. Use tools like Unstuck ai along with the free textbook to stay on top of things. Highly recommend taking this class!
