Kramer is awesome! goes very slow and at the classes own pase. Explains everything about 100 times!! you cant misunderstand something! Tests are extreamly easy! all fill in the blanks and grammar corrections! Teacher loves to teach, would highly recommend! Got an A+!!
If you're the kind of person who needs help to think and even outline an essay, he's the guy for you. He helps you out from step one to writing a great essay. He's nice to everyone and is not a person who shows favoritism. I strongly recommend you to take his class!
He's very good.. But u gotta go for classes
one of the greatest english teacher i`ve ever had. the only thing is u have to show up for classes. easy A. just make sure u do ur journals
This is a great professor. You can clearly see he love his job and that makes a huge effect in his class environment. I highly recommend him.
awesome teacher, he is such a nice person, I also loved the play he picked for us to read at the end of the semester, highly recommended, TAKE HIM
Professor Kramer is hands down the best english teacher I have ever had. I even enrolled in his Eng 101 class for next semester. He really cares for his students and wants them to do well in school. He is always there to help with anything you might have trouble with. Also,he actually comments all of your assignments so you can improve your writtin
Kramer is literally the BEST ENGLISH teacher i've ever had! He is so helpful and is very passionate about english.. the class is based on english lit essays so every class hr he explains what the essays are about to help give you a better idea in case you didnt understand it.. their are papers to write and the tests are essays you have to write.
Fine teacher, but if you have a cap of coffee on the lesson
he is seem easy at first he grade very hard. you don't learn anything beside talking none in the class. the books are long and hard to read. if you want to get a D take him. he is very unfair teacher!!
VERY nice and helpful. If you don't understand it he does his best to help you to. Welcome’s any questions. Will make some jokes every so often. Only thing I didn't like was he didn't tell students who were talking/using phone to stop until we neared the end of the semester, hard to work w/ that noise. DO JOURNAL ENTRIES! Reminds me of David Spade.
He is a very nice teacher, grades fairly. Marks your work so you'll get constructive feedback. The class kinda repeats itself, but all in all, is an easy class. don't forget to do all the journal, 99% of the journal is being made in class, so it's all good.
HE IS A GREAT TEACHER. I LEARNED A LOT IN HIS CLASS. IF U WORK AS HE TELLS U,YOU'RE " A " IS GARANTEED. HE IS MY ROLLMADEL. I HOPE TO HAVE 101 WITH HIM.
Kramer is a great teacher. he wants everyone to do well. by far the only teacher that is there to help you. tests are pretty easy... just listen and he will tell you what questions will be on the test. just do the journals ... it's easy.
great professor i ever had. very helpful take him.
I'LL SAY IT AGAIN!!! THE GREATEST EVER...i took hackett and compared with this genius: a huge difference!!! i gave my mediocre to this class and passed with flying colors...he said that all he cares is how much u write and none other...i promise u'll love him and learn a great deal if ur a bad writer or not
he is a veryyy goood teacher.. he will make sure tht u understand the work... trust me if u work hard in this class by the time u get out of his class you will b a MUCH better writter.. i recomend this teacher for ppl who want to learn how to write welll....
Awesome, awesome, awesome! The best teacher I ever had! Extremely knowledgeable, intelligent, & helpful! Explains everything clearly, makes shure everybody understands. Most of the work's done in class. Cares bout quantity, no quality. If your journal's complete, no matter how good or bed you write, A is guaranteed! Hope to take 28 & 101 with him!!
very nice and sweet teacher. his class is easy. if you don't understand something he'll explain to you until you do. you can't make up any tests. we only had 4 test the whole semester. the final was an essay.
Professor Kramer is a smart teacher. His is a hard grader. 5 essays and one research paper. He uses for text book World of Ideas, all essays are base on the text book. You have to read the book in order know what he is talking about at each class meeting, he basically talks about the essay from the book if you do not understand it. if you want to l
good professor , iam was just a dumb ass that didn't take avantage of the learning.
if you really want to learn English you should take him... he is the best teacher at Pierce...
he looks like waldo;NICEST teacher in the universe..VERY HELPFUL,kind,sweet..LOVES TO HELP STUDENTS!
Great teacher !!Mr.Kramer goes step by step making it easy to learn.
Great professor, and goes everything step by step.
He is such a great person. He is the best professor of all. I was impressed while I was studying this class. This class is very helpful because he teachs so so so well~~~~~~If you take his class, you are luck!!!I hope to take his another class!He looks so cute!^^;; Anyway, take it!
Mr.Kramer is a great professor.He cares for his students and wants every one to do well.He is awesome.I strongly recommond him.
He's ok. not the best out there, and total lack of creativity for your writing. you read a bit, not too much, and all the tests are essays. I think there's 3, and then you have the final. He's nice and he's a good english teacher, but not the best
he is a good teacher. pretty easy. very little homework. 85% classwork to 15% homework. very helpful and almost always lets us go 15mins or more early. high recommend this professor
Very nice professor and easy to understand. Test are easy. attendance is not a must but you really have to be there for the test. Highly recommended.
Took this during summer. Pretty easy. A couple of short essays.
A very charismatic teacher. Redundant when it comes to asking if anyone needs help, which is a good thing. Passionate about his students learning, Overall a very good professor. He likes to be on one to one basis with his students which allows room for critiques that build not only positive feedback but also constructive criticism. He's the best.
He is a really helpful professor. All essays writing are in class so that he can help you. He love to help his students to write better. I had him for 2 year (or 2 semester). In my opinion, he is a really great guy and helpful. thanks for everything.
Professor Kramer is not only a good teacher but overall a good guy. Did not get the grade I wanted but would not have changed a thing.
He is really good teacher.Really helpful.I think best teacher in ESL level.
Wonderfull,Smart,Hot and very attentive teacher, You can actually tell he loves teaching and people,evendough he is very reserve and goes straigh to the point, you will always leave his class happy and with a lot of Knowledge. he is a great teacher but, if you do not study do not expect an A from him. he takes his teaching very serious.
Such an awesome teacher, real chill. He will help with anything, and is really nice. I advice you take this awesome teacher.
He is the best of the best ; never yells always encouraging , very helpful ,and he knows how to teach .He never let the students down even though the student is dumb.he goes with the basic ideas in test , but he,ll ask u all the questions , which he thinks is important in order to build the basic . Awesome teacher .highly highly recommend .
VERY good teacher, always going things over twice in case you don't understand the material. He is SUPER chill, never ever yells. I highly recommend him.
He is the best . Eventhough I am going to take English 86 ,I really miss those days when I took English 84 with professor Kramer . I wish time fly and when I open my eyes I am sitting in his class for 101 or so.each and every student who has taken english with professor Kramer miss him.once again, we missssss u professor Kramer.U r the best .
My first English professor in united States.He is the best.I got A in his class and learned a lot from him.I wish i can have his class again.
Everybody who has taken him always thinks the same way (wish for having him as a teacher again and again).I have been trying to find him in every single English teacher, but there is only 1 professor Kramer,and nobody have that kind of guts to take his place. Extremely humble and respectful teacher.We miss u sir.
If you want to learn English, take this class. He will give you the best way to learn english grammer. effortless english is here. Do not forget first you will learn English and then A if you do your homework.
Excellent professor! He is kind, intelligent, and helpful. He is polite and respectful when he speaks to you. Every assignment and test date is listed on the syllabus on the first day of class. Class is challenging but not impossible! Great professor! work hard and you will be a better writer and get an A! He is a great person!
He is a great professor with a lot of passion for English! He's very helpful and wants you to succeed. He made literature easy to understand, and he has interesting lectures. We had 3 in class essays, 4 quiz, 1 term paper, and the final exam. I definitely recommend him!
You have quizzes based on the stories you're supposed to read. It's usually only a couple questions & he tells you in advance that you'll have a quiz. His tests are strictly short essays. Pay attention when in class because he explains key points of the stories which you should know for the test. There is a 5-7 page paper. Very helpful and kind!
Three quizzes and a final. Nice professor, always answer your question and explain clearly. Write your email back in time. Not a difficult class, got grade B.
Never use your phone or electronics in class. You will be embarrased. He never missed a day, and he doesn't take attendance like most proffesors.
I have respect for this professor only because he has respect for all his students. He makes English 28 a piece of cake and very enjoyable class. His essays are really what count and he helps you write it during class so it doesn't get easier than that.
he is the best English teacher in pierce!you will always leave his class happy and with a lot of Knowledge
Very passionate about his profession and willing to help you succeed. One of the best teacher in pierce. I took him this semester and trust me he will never disappoint you.
I can't stress enough how amazing of a professor Kramer is. Loved him so much for 28 had to take him again for 101. Really shaped me into the writer I am today. HIGHLY recommended
He a really good Teacher!!!! The Best!
The best English teacher in pierce! He is amazing. Highly recommended!
No one else be able to teach like him in Pierce! Highly recommended!
He is amazing. IF YOU WANT LEARN ENGLISH GOOD NO WAIT TAKE HIM. Really perfect , Meek, honest , NO HOMEWORK, If you want pass with A just be active in class and practice He really help you. feel free to ask any problme from him. He is exactly helpful.
This class was literature and the Bible. Professor Kramer is passionate about what he teachers. He is very knowledgeable and wants to help his students not just pass but to truly understand the material. He answers his emails and is available for help. I learned a lot about this fascinating subject. I would definitely take Professor Kramer again.
Lots of reading but awesome lectures.
AMAZING professor!!! I wish all professors could be as him! You will learn! He's super helpful. He made essays easier to write for me!!!
He is the best english instructor in Pierce college. Highly recommended ! You can write a writing every session . He will correct it for you with very useful feedbacks!
He is amazing and very patient to help students.
He grades really strictly. If you want an A ,better stay away from him
I would take Prof. Kramer for all my English classes. He is very passionate on what he does and cares about student's improvements because of his helpful and honest feedback. Also, he is always available for questions and extra explanation. Overall, a great person and a great professor!
Great teacher. He gives out good comments and helps you as much as possible. If he can only be my teacher for all of my subjects...
Cramer is a great professor but he grades strictly. To be honest my 28 was harder than 101. He cares for students, and if you want an easy A this class is not for you. Get ready to write a lot.
Professor Kramer is awesome. His lectures are engaging and educational. He is approachable and helpful to students. He knows the subject and material well. He cultivates a classroom environment in which the students feel welcome and encouraged to share their thoughts and views on matters. He is professional, yet personable. I highly recommend him!
Impossible to get an A
Professor Kramer is one of the best professors at Pierce college. I highly recommend him!!!
Prof. Kramer is simply awesome. His lectures are really fun. If you don't understand something he will explain it until you understand it completely. His grading system is very clear. We had three exams and a final. The final was to wright 2 paragraphs from a novel(not the txtbok). His exam questions were clear and to the point. Officehours helpful
He is a pretty good teacher and is really understanding. He just wants his students to do good. There are three in class essays and four quizzes that are forth 50%. There is also a term paper and final that are both worth 25%. Do the readings and you'll get 4/4 on the quizzes.
He's very patient, respectful, and wants us to be successful.
serious and kind
He's really a caring teacher. If you really want to learn by him, you will get an A.
Professor Kramer is a diamond. He is really caring. He gives A LOT of feedback on how to improve your writing skills and test taking abilities. His lecturs are fun and thought provoking. Super helpful in office hours. Your day gets better after his lecture. If you put in the work, the A is yours period. Also, his grading system is super clear.
Professor Kramer is a great teacher he gives great and necessary feedback but he can get very boring at times.
I take this class on fall is a great class and a easy class to take is very nice
I was struggling in writing a proper paragraph my whole life, until I met Professor Kramer. He is one the most knowledgeable English teachers ever. He explains the material clearly, so the confusion you have in understanding grammar will open up smoothly. If you ask him a question, he explains the answer clearly, so that you understand.
The best professor ever.
You learn nothing in his class.
Is ok teacher
Is ok professor
I like him a lot. He gives extremely good feedback. He also kinda has you write essays back to back, so be prepared. He doesn't allow the use of research of any kind. He doesn't really grade that tough either unless he notices that you're plagiarizing. He also had us use the textbook for helpful tips and examples for our essays.
He is the best teacher in the Pierce College. very professional. He does his job seriously. Thank you!
He is by far the best English teacher I've ever had in college. His way of teaching inspires you to do your best in class and in writing essays which were something I struggled the most. Just don't play around in his class nor let your phone rings or he will ask you to leave. Do your work, follow instructions and the A is yours.
Hands down he is the best English professor in this campus. I promise you won't regret it whenever you take any English courses with him..
He's got the best technique to teach English, and he manages his classes somehow that you won't lose even an important point. I believe that he is unique and the best English professor in Pierce College. At the class no one has bad feeling about learning.
Professor Kramer is the best English teacher. He cares about his students. He helps you to do your best. English is my second language and it was too hard for me but I learned many things in his class.
AWFUL! Barely gives feedback to improve. Graded me poorly since the beginning of the class. This is a beginners english class at a community college, not harvard.
He is a great teacher. You have to keep on top of the work, and then you can get a good grade in the class. I also took him for English 28 and 101.
he makes english super easy to learn about, super nice and caring. gives a couple assignments a week, but they are quick and not heavy work. class is not mandatory but would recommend they are very informative. just a great teacher overall.
Lets just say, now I have to take a summer course. I would not recommend taking this teacher. He is rude and is not understanding considering the pandemic. He expected his students to be at his level of writing essays. He is confusing and not helpful and will make you feel dumb for asking a question. Essays were graded hard& quizzes were proctored.
Professor Kramer teaches more of an environmental science class than an English class. He gives very few assignments and generally grades harshly. However, his feedback is detailed and if you take the advice your writing will improve. The work isn't difficult just annoying and repetitive.
I don't know why others are rating him low. This professor really cares, he wants you to understand and learn from the lectures and books. The topic we learned about was the environment and how it is being damaged. It only sucks I didn't take his class in person since not many people joined his zoom.I imagine those classes would be more interesting
He is upfront about tests and reading assignments. He is available by email and respons very quickly. He will make time for you 1 on 1 The books you read are very interesting, especially if you care about the environment Take notes from classes Stay in communication and ask questions Don't give up on yourself because he won't give up on you.
Professor Kramer posts a discussion every week that is due at random and inconvenient times, like noon or 5 pm. He is a harsh grader and not very friendly. He is also obsessed with the environment, so be prepared to become an expert on climate change against your will. I wouldn't recommend him if reading boring books about nature isn't your thing.
assignments aren't difficult, he'll help you out if you're struggling with it either way. if you can attend, his zoom/lectures are helpful and he encourages you to try your best. very nice outside of class as well, definitely recommend him for lower level english courses
Professor Kramer is passionate about environmental topics, which can make the class feel more like an eco-focused writing course. Engage with the material, use Unstuck AI for study prep, and you'll see solid improvement in your writing.
