Not a good professor. When I took this course he themed it on rhetorical analysis, which was very boring. He gives in-class writing assignments but never shuts up. Also, he does not explain things well. If you ask him to clarify what he has just explained, he will just repeat what you asked him to clarify.

He teaching from his heart, and his goal that his student reach the levle and not just learn. He don't frustrate his students, and he is always appreciating and respecting them.

Believe in me, I guarantee that you will become a better writer because his teaching method is excelent. You might feel that he is a hard grader at first, but he just wants you to try harder; as a result, you will be better writer. Fluently speaking, when you get on higher level you will be thankful that you were able to be in his class

As long as you follow his few simple guidelines you will receive an A in the class. There's one 2 page essay every week.

I took the hybrid class of his in the fall quarter and it was a nice easy class to start out my morning. It was at 7:30 so pretty early but not hard to follow. He was happy to help ideas along for the weekly paper due on Fridays. No final in this class, no books to write reports on. He grades generally easy if your effort shows through the paper.

As an online course, there is about one assignment per week taking at most three hours. The course is very straightforward, professor is accessible, and the assignments are easy. He gives you 100% if you do everything on the rubric correctly. Overall, an easy A and the research paper that you have a month to finish is only 2000 words. Solid Prof.
