He's a very personable and laid back teacher. He takes attendance very seriously. You spend time learning grammar and English so that you do well on your paper (kind of boring). You work with an (assigned) partner for a paper and presentation. It takes some time, but he's VERY vague on what he wants, which gives you a sense of uncertainty.

Fallin is a cool and funny person but not much of a teacher. He doesnt cover everything that is on the test so 60% of the tested material you must pick up off reading the book yourself. The material itself is not hard and memorizing vocab will have you set for a good grade. Very easy material, just dont wait for Fallin to tell you ALL about itl!!

If I hear one more "I'm not mad at ya"... Study the book, more specifically the vocab. Don't really need to take notes, he uses powerpoints provided by the book which means you can look it up yourself. Attendance is kind of optional - it's one of those classes where you can teach yourself the material if you stay on top of it.

overall prof fallin was a funny guy and gave some really good student examples. everything he says though, just remove from your mind and read the smartbooks. anything in the book is free game, and i mean anything. the chapters are long and the homework is due a little too early before the tests but you get used to it. tests are hard though

Don't read any other reviews. Don't take it with him, take it with JJ. His tests are so hard, and they are so influential on your grade. We have all done terribly, and he always blames it on us, our phones, and not us. Pick literally any, other, teacher.

Uses online site for assignments, but exam is completely different. Go to lectures, but most of the time it is review from reading the chapter. Not a well paced semester I had: Last two months lectures crammed too much info and my grade suffered. Studied on my own time and googled a lot. Friendly man & loves talking, but not the best professor.

David's lectures are not mandatory, but I would recommend you go to them. He is great to listen to and truly cares about his students. My favorite class to attend. It is test heavy, and the tests are kinda difficult, so make sure to study. The questions are from the book more so than from the lectures, so keep that in mind.

David is such a character when it comes to his lectures. He is an old man with old-man humor, and I love it, but it's hit or miss with some people. His tests are NOTHING like the lectures. If you have used McGraw Hill before, the main coursework is SmartBooks. I'd recommend going to the lecture but don't need to technically. Overall, he's alright!

Professor Fallin is a great person, and he is absolutely hilarious. The only problem I had with his class is the fact that the exams are NOTHING like the material that is went over in class. Nonetheless, this class should be an easy B or better as long as you do the homework. The homework is easy but very time consuming.

super great guy, super easy concepts, his tests are crazy. study so freaking hard, use the recharges in the online textbook! some of the exam questions are so wildly unrelated to anything he lectured about, make sure you read the textbook and practice it!

Do not take this professor for intro to marketing. His exams are nothing like the homework or lectures. My class average was 76% on the first exam and he congratulated us for having better scores than the past two semesters... exams are so heavily weighted the homework doesn't help raise your grade. It's ridiculous. Just avoid him if possible.

He is a very funny guy and loves to engage with students in class. If you are engaged in class and show up as much as possible you will learn more than if you just coasted along. The workload is not a lot whatsoever but lots a question that are on the tests are not in the workbooks or homework you have to be in the class to get some answers.
