Charn is a great teacher. he lays all the material out in an easy to understand way, and offers to go out of his way to help his students. while it is an easy course i learned so much. his exams are everything he taught in class which makes them easy.
Amazing prof. I always loved going to his class, he kept it fun, let us know exactly what was on tests. He cares about all of his students and wouldn't hesitate to go out of his way to help anyone out.
Charn is a sweety he cares alot about his students and it was fun going to his class because he had interesting material to tell us plus he always dressed nice definetly eye candy;) overall good teacher, tells you what is going to be on the midterm, quiz and final, just study and you will be fine, i encourage students to take his classes
Tells of experiences in the field, which keeps people interested.
Charn has a ton of interesting on the job stories to compliment the textbook subject matter. It means alot more coming from someone who has been out there on the job sharing real life expirences opposed to someone just reading from a book. Char also goes out of his way to make sure everyone is sucessful, even offering to meet outside of school.
Charn is the best teacher I've ever had. He used real life experiences to relate to the course material, which keeps you paying attention every second of every class. He was always willing to help out, especially if you didn't understand something, and would reply to your emails within the hour usually. Keep on teaching Charn!
Charn was the best teacher ever!! If you want an interesting class you ACTUALLY will want to attend, this is the teacher to take. (And, he is not too bad to look at either). He took real life and placed it in the classroom and that is what made you want to be there. He knew what he was teaching! Keep teaching!!
Amazing teacher, Charn relates real life experience to his teachings to make the learning process that much easier.
this us a really great guy. he cares about the students and wants you to do well. u cant help but like the class.
Charn is amazing!!! if you ever have to take a crim class i suggest you take this one, he is so good!!!! he will help you with anything and he makes you feel comfortable. 100% amazing!
he is an awesome story teller and barely any work to do but still manages to teach what he needs
Great teacher. Tells you everything that will be on midterm, final, and quiz. Never makes you stay the full 3 hours and you get about a 20 minute break in the middle. A lot of great stories to make the notes more clear. Great prof!
what a delight it was to have charn....he gives you all the questions that are on the midterm, quiz and final...you never have to search around in your text book for answers...they are all there in your notes!...overall awesome prof!
One of the BEST prof ever!!! Hope I can take more of his classes! Love all his stories!
Really interesting class. Charn is approachable and helpful. Stories are great and 3 hours fly by. Great teacher. One of the best at UFV!
He is an anwesome teacher! Anyone who can get him is lucky. He makes every class interesting.
Best prof ever. So interesting...good stories...definitely adds relevancy to everything he teaches. You won't get bored once...I will take every class I can with Charn.
Amazing prof. Best teacher I have ever had..period.
-----WARNING----- Amazing Prof Alert!!!
He rocks my Soxxs, After having him as a professor I started to like Police Officers in Abbotsford
Charn is an unreal prof. Even if you are not interested in policing, you should take this class. The lectures are never boring, his tests are a bit on the harder side. not really the material, but just, he uses EVERYTHING from the notes, so you have to put in the time to study.
words cant describe how amazing this prof is. if you have the opportunity to take a class with him dont pass it. As long as you go to class and take notes you are well on your way.
awsome teacher love his teaching style
Best teacher I have ever had!!! To this day I miss him and wish I could take another class with him. If you ever get a chance to take his class do it!!
By far the best prof I've ever had at UFV. I took this class as an elective from the business side of things and I am strongly considering switching into crminology because of Charn.
he's actually the greatest prof i've ever had, i'm of course trying to get in his classes again, if you ever get the chance to be in his class, take it!
Excellent instructor! I wish he would teach more criminology classes.
You know you are a good teacher when you have 58+ People on your waitlist! I hate how hard it is to get into his class, its almost impossible sometimes!
he was an awesome teacher, the best ive ever had. He made coming to class a pleasure. i wish he taught more classes
Charn is by far the best prof I've had. He's hilarious and smart and really has a passion for policing. Such an awesome teacher!!
Charn is an awesome guy. Not only is the class easy, its fun and interesting. He's not just a good prof though, I've had multiple talks with him outside class about life and he's just an all around great guy. TAKE HIS CLASSES
Charn is the best prof I've had, he's funny, and very approachable. He loves what he does, and makes it so interesting. I look around the class and everybody is listening to him. I wish he taught many more classes then the few he does. I definitely recommend him
the best prof EVER his class is a must
By far the BEST prof I have ever had. I will definitely try to get another class with him. He explains everything very well, is funny, entertaining, all around great guy! UFV is so lucky to have him.
AMAZING, best prof ive had so far ! So nice and keeps the class interesting.. he also reads out the questions that will be on the exams and if your able to write them down fast enough, you'll have every single question that will be on the test ! I ended up getting 102% on one of the tests because of the bonus questions ! highly reccomend !!
Soo amazing i love this prof.
professor is extremely friendly and his class is very easy while still teaching you what you need to know
Best proff. I've had all through University. He knows his materials, makes the class interesting and enjoys teaching unlike other proffs. He is clear on what is expected in the class, assignments are straight forward just like his exams. Great at motivating his students in proceeding in life.
amaaazzing prof! these comments are NOT enough to say how awesome he is, i never even realize where the time goes and get so sad when he calls it a day ! i enjoy his class so much and when i look around everyone is paying attention. i wish he was my prof in all my classes !
Awesome, awesome, awesome. You cant fail his class unless you are very lazy and never study
TAKE HIS CLASS!!!!! DONT TAKE IT WITH ANY OTHER PROF!!! Charn is without a doubt the best prof I have ever had! you will regret not taking his class. And you will get a good grade he is the best prof EVER!!! :D
Charn is the best professor in the entire university. There is no way you can fail his class. He is very entertaining and funny, and always there when you need his help. I strongly recommend his class :)
his classes are extremely hard.....to fail
The best prof you will ever have, I guarantee it! His classes fill up FAST though so if you don't get in just wait, do not take it with someone else!
BEST PROF EVER!!!!! HAVE NO WORDS TO SAY, HE IS JUST AWESOME!!!
kingra made sure everyone has a smile on their face when they leave. he made the class fun and his storys are really funny. everyday when i walked out of the class i always have a smile. thanks to kingra he always made my day happy. i would love to take another class with him. Kingra knows what hes teaching and knows how to make other people laugh.
Absolutely love him!! Great guy! Really knows course material and makes class fun!!!
BEST PROF EVER! very interesting so all course material is easy to memorize. always keeps u smiling and laughing! take one of his classes for sure!
If your one of those individuals that gets lazy often, take this class and try getting a C because somehow you'll end up getting a B, maybe even an A if you put a little effort into it, he is simple and make you laugh every class, talks about his experiences in the field from day one till now.
This a MUST TAKE course. Not only will you have fun but you will also get an opportunity to boost your GPA up. Charn is funny, helpful and so nice. He also will tell you what comes on the tests so you dont waste your time memorizing other stuff. No stress, fun course. Would totally take a course with him again.
This a MUST TAKE course. Not only will you have fun but you will also get an opportunity to boost your GPA up. Charn Kingra is awesome.
Other Prof's need to take note, Charn is hands down the best Prof i have had ever. He not only teaches you the academics but gives you real world information on what it takes to be in the field. A must take. Wish he taught more courses!
He's so personable and friendly! He makes everyone feel valued, an experience I've never had with a prof. He's a very easy marker as well. Buy the textbook though. I didn't and it and I struggled on the second midterm as a result.
By far one of the best profs at UFV! he gives the questions to the exams, they're all on stuff from his lectures. Very inspirational and passionate about his teaching. Makes it clear he wants everyone to succeed. He makes class fun and interesting and tells lots of interesting and funny stories. Would take every class with him if I could!
I absolutely love Charn's classes! He's amazing at keeping everyone engaged, tells stories from his life as a cop and is hilarious! He likes to chat and his tests are not at all difficult. He's really personable and as long as you get the notes from the powerpoints YOU WILL PASS. Would DEFINITELY take another class with him! Best prof at UFV!!!!!!!
Awesome prof!
Loved this course! Charn knows how to keep students engaged with real life cop experiences. Clear expectations and very interesting class!
AMAZINNGGG PROF! HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Charn was/is my favorite prof thus far. He's hilarious, clear in his teachings and has many personal experiences working as a police officer which he readily applies in his teachings. Lets you know exactly what to expect on exams and gives great feedback on papers. Monday mornings at 830am were totally worth it!!
If given the chance, definitely take Charn's class! He's hilarious & teaches the reality of policing. I looked forward to class everyweek! Will go out of his way to help his students- definitely a good contact to keep for the future! Get a head start on his paper though!
He is awesome!
Charn is an amazing prof. Not only are his lectures informative but also very interesting and inspiring because he talks about his experiences working for APD. He not only just covers course material but gives you great advice for working in any work environment. Anyone can easily get an A in this class. Take him if you can!!
Hands down the best prof at UFV. Classes are fantastic and lectures are extremely entertaining. He's a down to earth individual and talks about the experience of working in the police department. So far, the awesomest and GPA booster prof at UFV. Once you go to class, you wouldn't want the class to end. Everyone should take a class with him.
He is a very good prof. Makes you think and his insight into policing makes the course extra interesting.
Really nice prof. He knows what he is talking about and gives real life examples since he is a police officer. He is there if you need him for anything. Highly recommend !!
Best criminology professor! He knows how to teach concepts and theories by applying them to real life examples. I would recommend taking his class whether you are in the crim program or not. He grades fairly and wants his students to succeed. To be honest, I would re-take the class just to attend the lectures again!
Best prof ever. Take him, you'll regret NOT taking him.
Awesome prof. Really cares for his students and understands them. Grading is fair, study for your exams with his lectures notes and you're good to go. He makes his own powerpoints and always gives real life examples to convey the meaning. His stories are great.
I couldn't stop at three tags, Charn cares about students, he's inspirational, hilarious and his lectures are AMAZING. I've never felt excited to come to a lecture until Charn was my instructor. Wish he taught more courses so I could have him for my entire degree!
Charn is hands down best prof. He's hilarious, has amazing lectures, and does not give loads of homework. Look around the room while he's giving his lecture, and you'll see everyone completely engaged in what he's saying. Amazing prof... wish i could have every class with him.
Charn is fantastic. Absolutely amazing lectures, he keeps everyone engaged and is easy on the homework. He pursues a philosophy of memorable moments that you will use in life compared to homework. If you take his class be prepared to hear alot of related stories and some shenanigans.
Charn is the best prof at UFV hands down. I took his class as an elective & I can truly say it was the best lecture experience I've ever had at UFV. He really cares about his students & it shows. He tells u exactly what will be on tests & what to write down, so u can spend the rest of his lectures being blown away by his on-the-job stories. Amazing
Charn is an amazing guy, his lectures are inspiring and captivating. He understands life is more than just school and tests etc. His tests are word for word his lecture slides. I memorized every single lecture note and ended up with 98% in the class. This is an easy class to get in an A because you know exactly what will be on the test.
One of the best profs I have had. Charn is a really funny and nice guy, his lectures are very interesting and he is an easy marker and only has 1 paper and a small assignement
Great prof. and a wonderful person. Deals pragmatically! Talks from his wisdom and gives an actual insight of a life of a police officer or officers.
BEST PROF EVER.
Amazing professor- he genuinely cares about his students hope to keep in touch with all students. He makes classes feel like 30 minutes and is incredibly reasonable. He makes you want to learn. Overall best class i have ever taken, would recommend everyone to take his class. Wish he taught more courses.
Fantastic instructor at UFV. Best class ever. Easy exams and no stress at all. I personally recommend everyone to take this course.
HES AMAZING. He tells the best stories and relates it back to the actual topic. hes so funny and has the class engaged. he gives break for however long the students prefer. hes just great. i highly recommend taking charn. best prof ive ever had.
hands down the best prof EVER to exist on this planet. I could sit and listen to him lecture all day long! I miss him so much and I wish he taught more classes. If you are looking for an elective or if this class is a requirement, I HIGHLY recommend this class to you! Charn is just everything you could ever want and the life lessons were amazing!!!
best prof out there!!! he is hilarious and so flexible with due dates. if you want an extension on your paper, give him a good reason and hell give you one. he gives you the questions that are going to be on the exam and they're so easy, straightforward and straight out of the lecture. love Charn wish he taught more classes.
The best prof at UFV. He treats everyone with respect. I always loved to attend his classes. You will never feel bored in his class. Every class was an unforgettable memory for me. Pay attention to his class and you will remember every single word. His lectures are amazing. I wish he offered more classes.
Excellent prof. Charn is a genuine guy with incredible stories to tell and endless jokes to make. Treats every person with respect and has simple expectations. An easy and enjoyable course as well, would highly recommend.
Looking forward to classes was something I hadn't experienced until taking Crim251 with Charn. He doesn't post lecture notes so you need to go to class and write notes. But you will love every minute of it. Very inspirational, and learned alot about myself and life, aside from course work.
Charnpal Kingra is legit the goat. This class you will enjoy without a doubt. He tells many stories about his life being a cop and it will change your life indefinitely. Tests and exams are very easy straight from his notes
I would try to fail this class just to be able to take it again.
If you don't take a class with Charn, your missing out. He is the GOAT! Caring and passionate and will help you with literally anything. His class starts off with notes, and then wanders into amazing stories. Graded on 3 exams, 1 mini-assignment and 1 paper. He gives study guides and is very clear on what you need to get out of the class. Thanks CK
So far the best Professor I have met till now. The lectures were amazing and he used to tell his personal life experiences which made the lectures more engaging.
Charn is a prof that understands , and is very reasonable. His lectures are amazing and you'll never find yourself bored in his class. He shares his life experience as a cop and ties it together with the lectures which makes everything easy to understand and interesting to listen to!
Charn has been one of the profs I can come to even after I have finished the class. Not only does he try to make his lectures interesting, he makes sure that his students don't fall behind. He has definetly set the bar high and hope that he can teach other courses so I can retake his class!
Amazing lectures with tons of stories relating to his experiences and the lecture material. Very caring and wants the best for his students. Easy A as he did give out exam questions beforehand for 2/3 exams HOWEVER IMO it is not a course where you learn a whole lot. Mostly point form regurgitation. Learning was centered around life as police officr
100% recommend his class. His exams are so easy he pretty much gives you the questions. His lectures are super interesting and talks a lot about from his personal experience. Had his class at 8:30am and it was the only morning class I had never missed!!
Very clear on what he expects from you, and a fair marker. This is MUST TAKE class. As easy as and lenient he may seem, do not take him for granted because you will miss out on bonus marks, non-academia wisdom, and most importantly his hilarious jokes. My only advice is when you're in his class, MAKE SURE YOU LISTEN TO EVERYTHING, (EXAM Q'S GIVEN)
Honestly the best professor and human being I have met. Not only does he teach the subject with passion. He truly cares for his students. He will go out of his way for his students and people in his life. He tells the truth about the career with both the good and bad. His classes get filled for a reason folks! I wish he taught more courses.
He is very passionate, knowledgeable and also cares about his students. Take his class before you graduate!!
Charn is hands down my fav professor. He's super respectful in class and you can tell he cares about his students. He took in over 5 students on the waitlist. Couldn't finish the course with him because of the Covid19 but He speaks about his personal stories because he is a police officer too. Super interesting & not hard to get an A.
Hands down the best prof at UFV. Amazing experience, talked for hours after class and he truly cares about his students
Charn is one of my fave profs at UFV. He is so passionate and his lectures are interesting as he brings up current cases in the community. So easy to talk to and truly cares about his students. His exams are easy as long as you study! Gives great feedback on papers. Could listen to him lecture for hours as he makes them so interesting!
All the reviews are accurate-he's a great prof and his integrated stories from his policing career and personal life are so interesting. Exams based on lecture material are hit or miss sometimes questions are pulled out of the depths of the discussions. Clear guidelines on the paper, easy to get close to full marks just following his guidelines!
If I could, Id take this class over and over again. Charns lectures are so interesting because he shares so many of his personal experiences. He truly cares about his students and wants to see you succeed. He will always be there for you. I highly reccommend taking this class because you will learn so much even beyond law enforcement. THE BEST!
Charn is the nicest and most caring professor I have ever had. I took his class near the beginning of my degree, and no professor has come close as I approach the end of my degree. Charn has shared some very meaningful stories and life philosophies that I still carry with me 2/3 years later. I would recommend his class to anyone.
Great Teacher!
He is a great prof I would definitely recommend taking his class if you get the chance. He is very kind and helpful and just a great human being. You learn a lot in his class and he keeps it very entertaining by telling us his personal stories!
He is the best prof I've had so far at UFV. He is so helpful and genuinely cares about all of his students. He makes sure that everyone understands the material, and he is available outside of class time to help you out. I recommend taking this class if you have the chance. You will not regret it!
Amazing class and would definitely take it again! He loves to talk about his personal life and experiences; can happen to go off on tangents. The exams are super easy and straightforward he will often give out questions that will be on the exam. There is minimal reading, willing to work with students if there is a problem or outside help needed.
This professor is incredibly caring and sweet, he genuinely cares about his students success. He can go on rants but I find the rants relate to the course material and it makes me remember the content better since it his experience of being an officer, which I loved hearing about, it was very insightful. Defiantly recommend this professor!
Charn is one of the best Crim profs in UFV. He will teach you the real life of being a police officer. he is so inspirational and he cares about his students a lot. You need to listen to him during class and you'll do good on the exams. I enjoyed his leadership reflection and statement assignment and his final paper is not that hard to do.
Charn is the best Criminal justice professor in this university. He actually cares about student, gives engaging lectures, gives you exactly what pages to read for the exam. He is very considerate, accessible outside class and makes learning so much fun!
