Hugely helpful, knowledgable, kind & cool. Helps students write well rather than killing them with meaningless assignments.
Very unique teacher and class. It was almost like a high school class but harder. If you readand do papers-you will do fine in the class.
Great teacher! Allows you to re-hand in papers if you're not happy with the grade you got. He is easy to talk to if you have questions about how to edit something or whatever. Very laid back style. It felt like high school. Highly recommend Mr. Tower!
you want to have a fun time, take this class. you learn a lot, and he is open to a lot. easiest class ever.
Tower rocks! He's a GREAT professor, very encouraging and totally willing to help if you need it. By far the best English professor I have EVER had!
Tower is the best of the best! He is fun, encouraging and tries his best to make the class fun and interesting, even when the materials might not be. GREAT professor! TAKE HIM! You'll be so happy you did!
He's great! I love how he livens up the class with his "visitors". He is really encouraging and likes to spotlight students he thinks will go far, but not in a competitive sort of way. He's absolutely the best!
Good professor. Works with you one on one on your paper assignmnet. Keeps class interesting. He is absent quite a bit too.
Awesome teacher! I think he has to be my favorite english professor/teacher of all time. As much as I try to attend, he understands absences and doesn't make a ton of points due on any particular day.
Mr. Tower is a GREAT teacher. He's really funny and loves what he does. The class work isn't too difficult and he's very helpful if you need it. Take him if you need english credits!
I really enjoyed Mr. Tower's ENG 102 class. He is a great teacher.
The nicest guy! So willing to help you if you need it. Plus if he thinks you'll go far, he will let you know it! :) His "visitors" are fun too, plus he's absent a bit too! The sweetest guy!
He is a fun teacher and he is very laid back. But you learn what you need to know so it will help you. He is awesome. He is the best English teacher i have had yet. Take him!!!!!
so cool, such a nice helpful teacher
hes a great professor, very helpful, and easy work!!
Very good teacher who made learning interesting. I enjoyed the short stories he had us read and the group debates were fun. The most fun of the semester was the presentations in the end ! He allows you to be very creative.....Highly recommend.
Mr. Tower is absolutly the best. I did have to rewrite alot of my papers, but he was always there to help. I love the fact that he swears in class, it made me feel as though he was treating us like true college students and adults. I hope to take more classes from him.
AWSOME TEACHER!! That's all I can say, he's awsome! He's not a TOUGH grader and he's easy to work with. He's the coolest english prof I've ever had! I totaly recommend him!!
Great English Prof. I recommend him, he doesn't make English as tough as some Prof's can. He has the passion for fun in class.
Mr. Tower is a fun guy and his class is fun too. He will help you if you need it and I found his class to be easy and interesting.
he is a great teacher. He takes a boring subject a makes it alright. Def. recomend him
Great teacher!
great guy but the way he grades is very difficult and hes inconsistent. he isnt very clear at all
THE WORST TEACHER I HAVE EVER HAD - DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS OR THIS TEACHER, HE HAS FAVORITES TO NO END AND HE GRADES SO INCONSISTENTLY IT ISNT EVEN FUNNY.
took as a summer class, weird teacher but if you work a little at your papers and show him your trying you'll get in the A range.
The class is fun. The teacher is a bit of a whacko, but in a cute way. His class is fun and he grades fair. I recommend that you take his class.
guy is weird but tolerable. class was outrageously easy. go to class, show some effort in revision of ur papers, easy A.
FANTASTIC teacher. Extremely intelligent. He will push you to become a better writer, no matter where you are at starting the class. Very approachable, and will help you in any way possible. Highly recommended!
good teacher easy class to take.
This guy has helped me out soooo much. I've improved my writing. I've had him for both english 101 and 102. He is very helpful, and understands you completely.
I found his class very boreing he seemed to hate what he was doing,therefore making it difficult for us to get interested.With papers he only cared about pg.length, our minimum page countwas 7!And that was with basic stupid topics, not with research papers!maybe because we had him in his 1st semester and in the morning he wasnt at his best. good lu
Had him for both En 101 & 102 So far my favorite teacher ive ever had. Very helpful, very good class, my 101 had so many fine girls in it.
a very sexy man, who made english fun and easy. a little too easy...
Bounce Bounce ball! Easiest class I have ever taken. I am probably a more recent person to have had him, so I think things have changed! I think the longest paper we have to write is like 5 pages! He helps you so much. He really cares that you understand.Easy to talk to. Make sure u read the assigned pages, he gives short EASY quizzes on it.
very easy!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOVE this guy!!! hes an amazing prof!! I cant believe you people that thought he was not intrested in his work. This guy is an Amazing teacher!! deffinatly get him if you get the chance.
He's a really sweet and funny guy. His test are pretty easy too if you've read and reread before the test. He makes things interesting at times with his odd quirks and ideas.
JUST LISTEN TO HIS INSTRUCTIONS AND SUGGESTIONS AND YOU WILL DO FINE. HE WILL LET YOU REDO A PAPER IF YOU DON'T LIKE YOUR GRADE.
He is one of the best teacher I have had since attending college. He is very helpful, and caring. He very interested in your ability of learning and when ever you need help he's there.
fairly easy pro. pretty funny guy.
You need to show up to class, complete the papers on time, and you will do very well in this class. He can rabbit trail sometimes but overall, very nice guy!
Boring boring boring teacher. Not a whole lot of reading, but make sure you read if you have too because he always has a quiz on it. It takes him forever to explain something and he's very nit picky on papers, which can be a good thing but gets annoying. very easy class overall
Great guy. Not the most exciting, but my writing definitely improved from his class. I liked him so much I took a second class with him. Very easy to talk to and kind. As long as you write his papers, his class is easy and not stressful.
easy teacher, wrote only 4 papers all semester, and the last was our exam. he gives "quizzes" worth 10 points, if you didnt read no big deal, thats how easy they are. kinda boring in class, but suggest taking, easy class
Decent guy, but not the best professor. Readings were pointless. Never clear on what he wanted, but it din't matter, did well anyway. He missed a few classes, he schedule a few off so we were in class about 50% of the time. If you want a decent grade he is fine, if you want to learn, find another.
decent guy, made the class pretty easy, just 4 papers, I like to write so no big deal, just show up and pay attention to blackboard because he puts the reading assignments there
There is no way to get an A in his class! He may have been easy teacher for EN 101/102, but ONE person out of 30 in my class got a 95%. No one else came near this. Most people scored 80s or lower, and we are all normally A students! Frustrating! He doesn't tell you exactly what he wants, even when asked. Don't take class if you want to keep GPA up!
He is such a sweetheart, seriously the nicest prof I have ever had. His class is not easy though, lots of reading and quizzes. But I don't regret taking his class, he is just so sweet!
nice guy and easy gradong papers in 101 but was told he is impossible after that
Awful prof to attend class with but definitely an easy A. In terms of learning about analytical reading and writing, this prof belongs in grade school teaching 5th graders. His methods are very elementary and he treated us likewise. Unfortunately a req'd course, EASY A but boring, choose another prof.
Mr. Tower missed or canceled at least a 1/3 of our classes. When we where in class we played a lot of games that were suppose to be educational but tended to get off topic quickly... I learned very little and thought this class was a waste of money, but if you are looking for an easy teacher English teacher, Mr. Tower could be your guy.
Super boring. Easy A. Took a night class, he seemed really relaxed. Didn't learn a thing but easy to pass
Great guy. Easy class if you do the work and show up!
Not easy. Told me my first paper was publishable with some work and I got a 93%, tied for highest in the class. Missed ONE assignment and it dropped me from an A- to a B. Ignored all attempts to make up the assignment.
Prof. Tower is AMAZING! Class is not difficult, he has interesting interpretations of the readings but encourages you to disagree with them and does not judge you on your opinion. No exams. 1 paper. and you can use all notes on your tests which you can either take online or in class, your choice. Would DEFINITELY take him in any class he teaches!!!
I liked Prof Tower enough to take several other classes he offers. Some previous comments were correct, he will miss a couple days, his quizzes are kinda easy, and he can be somewhat ambiguous with his requirements. However, he is a GREAT guy and makes class fun. He encourages thought and discussion. I'd highly recommend him.
Good Teacher we actually use the book and he is pretty clear on what he wants from your papers. If you need help he is willing to stay after class or schedule a meeting with you. We had about 5 papers and maybe a few test on readings from the book.
Mr. Tower is a nice guy who wants to know his students. He didn't always seem prepared for class, but the readings were interesting and the assignments helped me become a better writer. DO YOUR HOMEWORK! Reading quizzes are difficult to pass if you have not read the material! If you do your work and can write a paper, this is not a hard class.
Prof Tower is a really nice guy. He has an odd sense of humor but I always found it to be entertaining. I took the hybrid class and you NEED to do all of the online assignments. Thats how I got behind. He can be a tough grader with papers but he writes a lot of helpful things. I would defiantly take another one of his classes.
Personally I thought the class was very dull. Thank God it was half online. It was easy if you put the time to make a quality paper. He does tend to be untimely when it comes to BB assignments (posting late, little clarity in what is due and when it is due) I hear he is an easy grader compared to most though.
Nice guy, he knows his work, always helps and explains very well. I took his online and classroom class and it was fine. Not super easy, but i like it! I personally would recommend him!
Somewhat of a quirky professor. Good class for someone looking to be introduced to solid literature--not recommended for those who are well-read! This is a watered-down course, still entertaining though!
Overall an easy class. Mr. Tower is easy going, can be funny at times to lighten things up. He is a bit harsh on grading the papers. I don't feel he explained fully what was expected out of the papers that needed to be completed.
Prof Tower is easy to get along with and is helpful. You must attend class because there is a reading quiz at the beginning of each class. He does tend to grade the papers harder than some but there are other points to be obtained throughout the semester if you attend the classes.
Took his online English class. He never really updated blackboard. Only wrote a few papers and took a few quizzes. As long as you follow his guidelines you will do good on the paper. He's a really nice guy and I'd take a class with him again.
Maybe it was my classmates, but i LOVED my class with Towers. The aura of the class was very comfortable and interactive. Loved the people, the material and his teaching style. He's very easy going and i would take a class from him any time.
