Weinshilboum is a really cool, nice guy. He lives and breathes writing, I think. He knows how to teach and make it fun. He'll show you the values of writing and try to help you whenever. He's 'that' cool. there was never EVER a dull moment in his class. :-)
Dave a cool teacher! He tell you exactly what he wants. He even give you an example of the assignment. Pretty easy! Just be on time! Don't turn on yur cellphone. Or turn in your work late without reason. Lotz of fun!
He is a very good teacher, I would take him again if I could. He is alwayz willing to help and is very clear about what we wants. He Always is happy to teach and to listen to his students.
he is a very understanding teacher. he tells you what he wants so that makes the assingment much easier. hes great to take
Fantastic teacher! Verry funny
The easiest english class I've ever taken. Very lenient on a lot of things. He asks for 45 journal entries by the end of the semester, but I did 20 and got full credit. If you know how to write, this will be a very easy class.
No Comments
he is a pretty awsome professor. he is good for those who get bored easily. and even though his jokes arent funny, his dorkyness makes up for it
He's the coolest college professor I've had
a great teacher, can relate to students, willing to work with you. give time and effort and youll get an A. not too many papers or too much reading. some days are short. he cares about his students. if u are a natural at english, this will be easy.
If you can take him for English there is no reason why you should have to go through 18 weeks of boredoom with some other professor. Understands you need this for GE and will make this class fun along the way, as well as prepare for you for future courses. Hid dorkiness adds to the light class atmosphere.
Overall, a great teacher but alittle tough on grading essays! Nice & easy going,better than other professors but however class are a bit boring.
Great teacher. Kinda tough with some stuff but really funny. He gets his students into it.
The easiest english class you will ever take. Pretty cool professor too.
Awesome Professor. He is very fair and goes the extra mile to help if you have a problem or question. Makes the class interesting & fun while getting the job done! He's fresh & hot...nothing like the old dinosaurs teaching english when my grandma went to school!
WOW... this class is so FUN and Interesting. The professor is a very cool guy. At time, he could be goofy. Very down-to-earth. Grading is fair. If you do the work and actually put EFFORT into it then getting an A is a piece a cake. He also includes extra credits!!! He touches base on current issues. There are a lot of group works but very easy.
Knowledgeble professor. He can be silly at times. This class is easy if you're not lazy. At times he talks about his son way too much. I recommend him.
Mr.Weinshilboum is an awsome teacher. He teaches well,explains well and a great person with a loving heart. He will never put you down or flank you. If you do your work and have positive attitude you will love this class. He awalys has positive attitude. You will like him.
Finaly an english teacher that actually tought me something. This teacher deserves respect from all his students and most english teachers (especially Mrs. Curtis, she should take this teacher, he would teach her how to teach). About 5 essays 3-4 pages, one 8 page essay, and grades accordingly, attendence only matters when it comes to final grades.
Mr.Weinshilboum is an awsome teacher. An easy class to get an A. Show respect and do your work and you will pass his class easily. He grades fair and his assignments are pretty easy. Very laid back teacher that knows how to laugh and joke. The best teacher on campus.
EASY PROFESSOR...JUSS BE DEA ON TYME N PARTICIPATE..EASY EXAM TOO GUD LUCK!!!!!!!!

The best prof on campus...U will learn a lot and have the best time of ur life. He is very understanding...the best!
Absolutely awesome. Take him. He is by far the best teacher on campus. I learned more than I ever have in any english class, ever. He was incredibly helpful and cares so much about the success of his students. TAKE HIS CLASS!!!!!
He's a good teacher but he's mean. Also grade a little hard.
He's really a nice teacher, but his grading is hard.
Amazing teacher. He keeps you interested with all his random stories that somehow apply to what he's talking about. Helpful and energetic, clear and concise. Ideal teacher!
By far the coolest teacher you will ever have for english. take this teacher for any english class you need. 100, 300, 302 they are all easy.
Mr.David is the best teacher in the world. HE knows how to teach students with patients. He is pretty laid back and 100 percent better than Ms.Hansen. His quizzes and homework is easy. Easy to pass his class if you do your work on time.
HE IS PERFECT TEACHER!
Weinshilboum is the best professor I had ever had or will ever have. He's great, understands joke, and will always help you no matter what. He's great. But you have to work as well and be nice to him. In order for teachers to like you, first you have to life them.
He is the BEST English teacher. He makes his class interesting and fun. I would recommend him to anyone . An easy A class.... :)
THE BEST TEACHER OUT OF ALL ON THIS CAMPUS!
Excellent teacher. Nice and very helpful
David is the best teacher. very helpful and very funny. he makes the class fun all the times. the essay were not that bad just based on the readings from books. few quizzes and just one final. no midterm too just essay assigned. i would recommend to everybody to take him.
AWESOME PROFESSOR. KEEP UP WITH THE READINGS AND EASY ESSAYS AND YOU WILL DO FINE. GO TO CLASS OR ELSE HE WILL NOT HELP YOU OUT WHEN YOU REALLY NEED IT! STAY IN CONTACT ABOUT YOUR GRADE AND THE SEMESTER SHOULD FLY BY SMOOTHELY. OVERALL EXCELLENT PROFESSOR. IMPROVED MY GRAMMAR ALSO.
Professor Weibshilboum's class are awesome. His class are fun and interesting. All his essays are based on the readings and books. If you attend class everyday, you should easily pass his class ...Overall, Pro. W's class are awesome....
Man, this is an awesome professor. He is funny and very clear in what he assigns. Interesting homework and classwork like the "Humty Dumpty" excercise... Ha,ha,ha
You NEED to do the work he's not nice about being lazy and he is not very forgiving. But! He is very helpful and is very easy to pass if you just do what he assigns everyweek and don't put it off til the last minute!
Excellent teacher. I took 101 and 300 and learned so much. I am a returning older adult and he made the class fun, interesting and helped me to actually like grammer and writing essays. During research he was extremely helpful. The best English teacher at CRC..Other English teachers can learn from his teaching style. The GREATEST!
this gy is AWESOME. he's a lot of fun to be around. likes to joke around as well. but he's a good teacher.teaches well. a fair grader. always ready to help. always available. u can even txt him if need be. i would DEFINITELY recommend this class. its also a pretty easy clss. not very hard. only 3 essays not including the final which is 10pages.
Mr.Weinshilboum is the best English teacher on CRC campus. He has passion to teach and knows how to treat students right. Hes teaching style makes me want to come to class. Mr. David is AWSOME!!!
Mr.David changed my life forever in a positive way! After hard times in my life, I wanted to give up on school, but he motivated me and kept my spirit and dreams alive. He taught me a lot, I became a better writer that I taught I would never become. Mr. David gets an A from me.
Og prof! He knows what he is talking about. English writing class is never boring with him. Taking the lit class it is fun and enjoyable show up in class do your work and readings you will be fine. makes class really enjoyable and interesting.
David is AMAZING! He's a huge help and he doesnt give anyone a low grade. He really pushes you to do your best. At times, he can ramble on but to me, that is what makes the class fun. He doesnt dwell too much on the "serious" side of english but relates it to todays world so its more understandable. I highly recommend him. =]
OH MAN! this teacher is the funniest ever. he is so funny, his jokes & than his class is worth going too. go to class, stay on top of things & you?ll pass [read the bOoks] - essays are event that hard. he make you do little assignments prior to the BIG essay & its all adds uP. worth taking him if you hate English. one class you?ll enjoy.
I like his last name. LOL. Great Prof, moody at times, loses his voice occasionally etc but never the less doesn?t take anything too seriously. This is an English class so you better learn how to write properly. Other then that excellent first lit class. Even though literature sucks I learned something! I didn?t feel robbed out of my 60 bucks. :P
GREAT TEACHER!!!He knows what he is talking about, easy, helpful and friendly. When you done you feel like you learned something!!!
Hes funny and very willing to help and make you understand assignments. Read the books your supposed to and keep up with writing rough drafts and what not and youll do good. Kind of difficult but managable
buy the books, there are like three. His essays are all based on the books so read them and youll do well. his final is a grammar quiz (for people with b's and lower). the last paper is a research paper. there are book quizzes. very helpful. can be scary at times because he picks on random people when the class seems "tired". overall great class.
I always look forward to coming to his class. He makes it so fun to learn. Just do your work and attend classes and you'll do fine.
Excellent teacher!!!After 12 hours of work and no sleep, I still look forward to his class. He is very funny and makes the class really interesting. I learned a lot in this class. I am a better writer too.
He was a great teacher. Taught very well and he was a really funny. I recommend him to everyone. I will take him again. Excellent professor!
Class interesting and gives great useful information that you can use in everyday life. Keeps you interested the whole semester. No boring textbook, interesting readings.
Weinshilboum was INCREDIBLE!!! He was a great teacher that actually CARES about your education and is willing to help!He always entertains the class with just being him lol. The work is not too hard if you are willing to apply yourself and he offers a LOT of extra credit. I am defenitly taking him again and will honestly ENJOY going to class.
Weinshilboum is a awesome professor. It is a easy A but you have to be in class, and do the work. His jokes and stories keep the class very interesting. He is extemly helpful. I recommend this guy so much that I am waiting a semester to take his next class. There is no point in taking another English Professor. He rocks!
BEST PROFESSOR AT CRC! Really cares about students & their future. Funny & down to earth...HIGHLY recommended. Some hw assignments, but fairly easy. We read 3 books & had quizzes on them that were a piece of cake. He really helped me with grammar too. There is a 10pg paper at the end, but its on whatever you want. I really enjoyed his class!!!
Wow. What to say about this incredible professor. Mr. Weinshilboum is the epitome of a teacher who truly loves teaching. Not only does he appeal to everyone in the class, his academic outlook can really alter the way you think about English. Always there for you when you need help or just a smile.See you in the fall Weinshilboum. - Tony
Great professor, would take him again anytime. Smart and passionate about English. Fun and quirky. You get the grade you work for, not extremely difficult but not difficult. If you enjoy reading and learning you will love this class, if you slack off and hate school, you will get the usual grade, but it will be fun doing it.
koo guy, just do the work. he requires 3 reading books. want em? i got em. ;) titles: PROFESSOR AND THE MADMAN, DEAD MAN WALKING, DEMON IN THE FREEZER. ill take 18bucks for all 3. get at me. AIM: pinay916
The text are 3 diff novels (cheap). Wonderful professor. Spices up lectures with hilarious personal stories. Class workshops that help with papers. Also he is very helpful and will review your work. Explains things very very clearly and is inspiring. A professor no one should pass up.
excellent
OMG! This professor is awesome...the nicest and easiest teacher on campus. Theres no homework much beside reading but the reading are actually intersting TRUST ME! i hate reading but this class is soo soo easy, so is the teacher. I'd recommended anyone to take this professor.
A good professor.
Great teacher! He's very easy going but he does have a strict rule about being late. He likes to tell jokes so if you have jokes, let him hear them. Most homework consists of 1-2 page essays and there are grammar quizes every once in a while. Overall...VERY EASY!
He is a great teacher. Highly recommend him for any students. He cares about his students and his class is never boring. He makes jokes and love to take about his dog. Easy A in the class if you go everyday and do your work. If you attend almost everyday and has an A in the class, you dont have to take his grammar final. Awesome teacher.
This class is def. not an easy A! I had to work realllyyy hard just to earn a C!
grades too harshly.
He's ok. was nice all throughout semester and gave me a D because he said my last research paper was plagarized, when it wasn't. I spent so much time into it that he has no right to really assume that. Doesn't help much on essays and does not give a lot of feedback on essays of what he really expects. If you miss rough draft workshops, your grade o
He are very hard! Also he use bad langwage. Dont take him!
Professor W is a very fair grader. The work load for my 8week class was moderate/medium. It's not an easy class, but if you take the class seriously, you will do very well. Class-time is used productively and activites are always fun. Prof. Weinshilboum is a hella cool kat, and is very easy to make friends with. I highly recommend him.
Great professor. Really helpful with academics and personal life as well. Lot of assignments for practice. You need to work hard to get an A but it is very possible with him. Cool and funny. Take him ;)
good teacher,grade hard.. be ready to read and do a lot of essay
Took his class over the summer. He is a totally cool teacher. One of my favs. Just read 3 books. Couple of papers and one research paper at the end. Hoping i get into his spring 2010 ENGWR 302 class.
I love professor weinsheilboum! one of the best at crc. not really easy but not hard either. :) take his class you will be entertained
Do all your homework, essay and quiz. Best way for this teacher is read the require book and do all your essay. Your overall grade will be GREAT.
I am actually surprised I was totally interested in this class. Usually, I would dwell and complain about reading 3 books in the semester (non-fictions books at that). But he made class VERY interesting and VERY enjoyable. All I can say is, if I can get an A, so can you! Read!! interesting books
he grades semi-hard. 74% to him is failing, D & F. no extra credit here. we wrote 5 essays. final is a ten page essay. a lot of group work in class, very fun! hes a nerdy dorky wierd funny teacher, hes great. talks about his son and wife alot. take him, dont be scared!
Wow. Weinshilboum is the bomb! This is the second time I had him, and it was no different at all. He's the same funny, dorky guy as always; he really likes English a lot! There are several assignments, but prep you for the essays. Fair grader. I'm telling... TAKE HIS CLASS!
he's a good professor, very funny. He reads whatever students write on here...so pls give me an A, Weinshilboum! =P He doesn't grade easy, but then again english isn't one of my strong fields. take him!
I HAVE
Definately inspiring. He believes in you, motivates you, & challenges you to improve your writing. The best and the only English professor I trust. He's my favorite. Maintain respect with him, go to class, do your work, and you'll be fine. When you're on his good side and after he's gotten to know you, then he'll add you on facebook.-Ramirez
David is a great teacher. i recommend him to everyone, hes funny and not anal about anything, he makes you feel very comfortable. Make sure you READ the novels!
NICEST PROFESSOR YOU WILL EVER MEET. Had so much fun in his class! He was always understanding, and he was always willing to help the students. He gave me a new prospective on writing. He even brought the class DONUTS!! Take him, you will not regret it!
He is an awesome teacher! I never had a fun and interesting english teacher before.As far as essays go i would say that he grades pretty hard. The 10 page essay is hard because come on its 10 paged long. Overall, awesome teacher highly recommend i would want to take a class with him teaching it again! So much fun :D
Weinshilboum is a great teacher! He's funny and helpful. Not judgemental of unusual ideas.
David lights a fire within any writer to seek out a world and write about it. He shows so much enthusiasm for literature and writing that it is hard for you not to get caught up in it.
One of the best teacher's i've had in college. He's helped myself and many others become wonderful writers. Attend his lectures, they are worth it and he makes the class fun by telling stories. I would take him if you are wanting a relaxed professor and is funny.
Weinshilboum is a great teacher. He is super clear about what he expects and wants. There is a lot of work due but he is fair and will help you. Make sure you do the readings.
The best teacher at CRC. He is awesome and will teach you how to write in the real world.
You will never find a better professor anywhere!!!Weinshilboum just beats them all.I highly recomend him.
Professor Weinshilboum is awesome! He added me last minute and I am so thankful he did. He is funny and attentive to students. The work isn't too bad. Didn't expect to love english so much. Weinshilboum is the BOUM! :)
Kick ass teacher. Best at CRC
Smart, funny, weird, strict, helpful and understanding. Class can be very hard if you make it hard, easy if you give it your best; lectures are always engaging, and crystal clear to understand. It only gets better. And in the end it became a memorable class.
He is the best!!!love him!! but don't be late or he'll make fun of you! he teaches very good and clear..His book is so interesting and he's very entertaining! he gives a very fun class that you never want to miss! he cooked for us on our potluck! you guys should take his class!
the most awesome English professor i have ever had! his curriculum is interesting and low in cost, all three of my books cost me only $18.00. i will be taking him for my next writing class as well!
Inspired me to pursuit a career in journalism! Best class I've ever taken in college A+ teacher.
Weinshilboum is the best English teacher I had. I took him for EngWr 51 and I liked him so much that I took EngWr 300, which both were easy classes. He's very helpful and pushes his students to do their best. And after taking one class with him, if he sees you outside of class walking, he will say hi and start talking to you.He's so cool.TAKE HIM!
Excellent teacher! Best English teacher I ever took. Before taking two of his classes, I hated writing. Now I love it. He's a great teacher, as well as a great friend. My only warning about Weinshilboum, make sure your phone is on silent or vibrate. If someone calls you in class, he'll answer it as a joke. :)
Weinshilboum (pronounced wind-chill-bomb) is awesome. <--- Period.
Weinshilboum is a pretty cool guy. He teaches english well and he doesn't afraid of anything.
Professor Weinshilboum is the best teacher that I have ever met. He respects and cares about his students. Also,he is nice and friendly. His lectures were helpful, interesting, and easy to understand. He has his smart ways for teaching. However, his class was not easy. I worked so hard and got an A. I recommend him because you will learn a lot.
I could not have asked for more! He's truly superb! I learned so much! I improved my grammar! I especially enjoyed the non-fiction books!
He is a great teacher. Class is very challenging. Make sure you read all books required because you will be graded on them. He gives lots of extra credit so take advantage of the easy extra points. Those extra credit points can make a difference in your grade.
Teacher is alright, it's a "writing class" but you are required to read 3 books and have quizzes on them on a weekly basis. If you dont read, it will hurt your grade.
just AWESOME...best teacher ever i learned most of my English writing skills from his class.i wish to take him again for enw302 but he doesn't teach Engwr302 for now...
Mr.Weinshilboum is a fantasic teacher. Take his class if you can. Do the reading for the quizes if you wanna pass his class. Try your best on the essays he gives.
This is the best professor i have had EVER! I did not feel prepared comin out of 101, but he made the transition easy.This class was easy! As long as u do the reading when he assigns it, u will be fine.Take notes when he lectures b/c he will tell u exactly what he wants in ur essay.3 books only $20 for his class. Makes class time very enjoyable!
just do the readings and essays, otherwise, it's sn easy class...and the books are really cheap too!
This is the second time I've taken a class from David. His lectures are fun and entertaining. The assignments are straightforward. His assigned reading is affordable and easy to digest. Show up for class, participate, and ask questions and you'll do great.
best english professor. I wish I could have took him for all my english classes. He is very helpful. Take this class. Mostly essay and reading assignments. very fair grader.
He's a good teacher but he grades too harsh. My favorite subject is english and I earned a C. Really hard. He's nice though. Ok to take, but there's better out there.. Find another professor.
Too bad his class a way harder than people have said. Yes he's a pretty cool guy, but his class is extremely hard! He doesn't let you rewrite papers. I hated the grammar quizzes. Hated the book quizzes too. Nice guy, hard class. Goodluck
awful, just run away. He grades the essays hard and doesn't let you rewrite them like other professors
hard grader, a 74 in his class is failing. goodluck
Dave is a really great and super funny professor. I absolutely recommend him. Yes, he isn't an easy grader, but I deserved all the grades I got. All of the journals you write will be able to be worked into your papers, which is really nice. He also has several opportunities for extra credit. TAKE HIM! I hate English, but loved his class.
David is a teacher who cares about his students. Show up, do the readings (no expensive text books), do the assignments and participate and you'll do fine. He doesn't "let" you rewrite papers, but he is always available to read your work before it's due and to help you. Highly recommend!!!
Great professor with a great personality. Has a 10 page paper at the end of the year but lets you write about any topic.
This professor made the class fun while learning a lot! Seriously, just read the material and take notes in class! Requires 3 inexpensive books. If you had a hard time in this class it's cause you didn't try your best. If you happen to have an issue, discuss it w/him; he's very understanding. Do the work and he will make the class worth while!!!
Weinshilboum is the Bomb!His Great personality and passion for english and writing is Amazing.Before I took any of his classes, I use to hate writing essays(it was like a nightmare for me).After taking his class, I fell in love with english and writing .I came out of his class with my head held high (knowing that I have conqoured my nightmare).
This class in fun. David has a good time teaching you English and honestly brightens my day. just do your work and have a good time!
O.M.G. David is the best teacher I have ever had. He's supper funny, friendly, and helpful. I took him twice, and I'd like to take him again for ENG 302. He knows how to make his class interesting. Take him! You'll never regret it!
okay Prof W is my homie. This guy is one of the best professors at CRC. If you need an english class and you don't take it with him, you're making a mistake. I definitely recommend him. He's easy going, he's funny, he makes the class enjoyable, and it's honestly an easy A if you do the work.
I enjoyed taking Weinshilboum class! I will be taking his ENG 300. Do your homework, read,show up on time,and he will give it his all to teach you!
David Weinshilboum is my favorite professor by far at CRC. The lectures in the classroom are interesting and he makes them fun. He is very understanding and is very clear on all assignments. I highly
You get what you work for. It's hard if you make it hard. However, it's easy if you make it easy.He's the best and I highly recommend. You will not regret.
Weinshilboum is awesome! You earn what you work for and he will be straight-up about anything . Watch your grammar! Don't expect long lectures, he dislikes boring people out. I definitely recommend him!
Weinshilboum is definitely a must-have professor. He's the best English professor I have ever had in my entire life. Take him, and you'll not regret it!
Take his class! He is a great professor and makes the class easy for you. I never dread coming to class because he makes it fun and he makes the topics easy to understand. He's very approachable. Make sure if you're wait listed that you show up, because he adds as many as he can.
I took his english 300 class that was half lecture and half online. We would have 1 class meeting every week and each class consisted of a quiz prior to reading a couple chapters from the 3 books we read. Be prepared to read because the quizes will either make you or break you. Final is fun to write about even though its 8 pages. Good professor!!!
He is hilarious and I have learned so much from him. He's my favorite teacher I've ever had.
Weinshilboum hosts the best Creative Writing Class at CRC. I've taken him twice. Easy as heck to pass his class (if you do the assignments, if not, why are you in college?) and the most inspirational professor I've ever had. Every class will open new avenues of thinking with your writing. He will make you a more confident, thoughtful writer.
This professor was fun. This is the first time I have seen no one drop from a class, with everyone showing up. I had a problem with a group member and the professor squashed the problem immidiately. I would defintely take this class again. Very clear criteria on what he wants on paper, and has a D2L forum up to talk with group members.
Best professor I've had in college. Took English writing with him twice ( writing 51 and 300). He's not the kind of professor that just gives out A's but he definitely helps you to try and get the highest grade you can. A very honest grader but also works with you on how you can improve. He even helped me with my classes outside of English.
Weinshilboum is an amazing teacher. He's very down to earth with everyone and gives great feedback. He tells jokes and stories and they're funny (unlike most other teachers). I loved his class and I try to take all of my English classes with him. No textbook for this class. If he had us read any short stories he provided the copies.
Make sure you read the books assigned. A quiz will be given after each few chapters read outside of class. After taking quiz usually discuss book, what you liked or disliked about the book. What stood out etc. Essays after each book finished, and he always gives out a ton of chances for extra credit. Take advantage of it all, great professor!
Hilarious teacher with a love of grammar. Three books, all with quizzes here and there and of course an essay attached to them. The books are a bore but they are a must so if you hate forced reading, this class is NOT for you. If you get an A & near perfect attendance, you skip out on the grammar final. There's a 10 page research paper as well.
I thoroughly enjoyed his class. He gave me great feedback on my essays, always replied to the e-mails I sent him. He is very funny & sarcastic. Ladies, he is very attractive as well. He gives worksheets to help with grammar lessons. There are a lot of essays but he is always willing to help if you ask. I DEFINITELY recommend him!!
Very Easy Class if you read all the books and come in for help during office hours
Great teacher! I highly recommend him!
TAKE HIM. Hilarious, intelligent, inspiring, and everything amazing.
Get ready to read 3 boring books!!!!!! Hard quizes on books.
Books were okay. A lot of quizzes, so be on time!
Weinshilboum is a fantastic prof. Took him Spring 2016 ENGCW 430 nonfiction. This is a difficult subject for some and he is very helpful. He guides you along and encourages you to put a lot of feelings into it. He's hilarious and very open. Easy to make appt with and a nice buddy to chat with.
Mr. Weinshilboum is an awesome professor who makes the class enjoyable w/ all his funny stories. He gives thorough feedback on all your essays, so u can improve. There are three required novels for this class and he gives out quizzes to make sure that you've read. Overall, Mr. Weinshilboum is amazing & I highly recommend you take him for ENGWR 300.
I am not surprise at all that Professor Weinshilboum has such good ratings. That is because he is that Awesome! He is the Bomb! Just like how his name is pronounced in the end.
Professor Weinshilboum is defiantly my favorite English professor I have had. He is very funny, and he cares about your grades, he is always more than happy to help you, but you need to go to him. He is almost always available outside of class. His lectures are fun and interactive.
This Professor is very very funny. He is extremely understanding and will work with most situations if you talk to him. He is a very genuine guy. If you do well on the essays you will pass with flying colors. DO YOUR READING HE NOTICES AND WILL QUIZ YOU!!! THEY ARE EASY IF YOU OPEN THE BOOK
My favorite professor so far. He explains essay assignments clearly and goes in depth on what he is expecting. He answers any question you have and provides clear ideas on what to write for the thesis, body paragraphs, and conclusion. Read the assigned books to pass the quizzes and the grammar final is easy if u study. Provides extra credit too.
Funny guy, four essay and a grammar final and you are done. Denf take him again
Prof. Weinshilboum is probably one of the best English professors at CRC. He is caring and hilarious. He provides a lot of extra credits for students to improve their grades. Warning! There will be a lot of readings and quizzes, but it's worth because the books he assigns will be very interesting.
Weinshilboum made me fall in love English all over again. He makes lectures fun, entertaining, while being informative. Yes you are going to have read a few books and write a couple papers, but it is an English class. He also gives great feedback on where you need to improve on. Weinshilboum is a fair grader and gives lots of extra credit.
He's the best professor ever! His lectures are so interesting and funny. I learned a lot from him. His grammar quizzes are so easy. I recommend him!
David is hilarious. His lectures are interesting. You will have to read a lot, but his quizzes are easy. I would recommend him
Weinshilboum is one of the best professors I have had. He gives really good feedback on your papers, he definitely helped me become a better writer. I would recommend him to anyone. Oh he also gives some extra credit opportunities!
You have a few papers throughout the semester, but nothing too heavy or difficult. You read a novel, a play, and some poems. He does make you talk and collaborate in groups a lot. There is a group project at the end. I personally don't like working in groups, but it wasn't too bad. He gives us an option to 'fire' a member if they don't do anything.
Prof. Weinshilboum is one of the best English professors at CRC. He is extremely funny and approachable. Despite the fact that he had NEVER been an easy A grader, he really cares about students grades, attempting to give students the privilege to boost their grades. Essentially, he is a reading addict, so be willing to read in his class.
Mr. Weinshilboum did a fantastic job relieving my English professor who had trouble finishing out the semester due to injury. Mr. W is super nice, has a really funny sense of humor, and actually teaches you English. He's also cool because he has a handle on modern pop culture. He isn't a difficult grader either. Do yourself a favor and take him!
A few recommendations for students who are planning to take his class: Be prepared to work hard, and do not complain. Weinshilboum is very approachable and willing to help his students, so do not be afraid to ask for help. He loves grammar, so expect grammar quizzes (super easy). I learned a lot in his ENGWR 300, and I definitely recommend him.
He is the best professor I have had. I took him for 300 and 301. He's hilarious which makes the class fun. I would recommend to show up to every class because it will be worth it once the final comes around. He assigns good books to read and your journals connect to your essays which helps with the writing. He also gives very good feedback
Best easy going professor i ever took
Weinshilboum is awesome. By far the most fun teacher I've ever had. Even if you don't like English, I think it would be hard not to enjoy his class! You can tell he really cares about what he teaches and he gives good, detailed feedback that helps you to improve your writing. I highly recommend him.
Weinshilboum is amazing. He is so down to earth and funny. He really does want you to pass and helps out in any way he can. HIs lectures are interesting and make sure to show up to every class! It will be worth it in the end :)
His class is so informal. He curses in class as form of jokes, makes you laugh. At the beginning ur grade will be low, but work for it and do e.c. He also grades you base on how much effort u put in (he knows). Show up! I know for a fact that i'm a bad writer, but he polished me and helps me gain confident in my writing. He's more than a teacher.
Honestly has set my standards so high as to what is an amazing college professor. He is super funny, caring, and the class always feels refreshing. Attendance is only mandatory if you want to be eligible to receive all the extra credit he offers. And he only requires 2 reading books which can be easily library books. Overall 20/10 for him!
Pretty easy class with lots and lots of extra credit opportunities. Weinshilboum really cares about his students and has a great sense of humor. He is a difficult grader but it is because he wants his students to grow and become better writers. Probably the best teacher I have had at CRC.
Professor Weinshilboum was by far the best professor Ive had. He loves his job and is always willing to help. Make sure to read the books required and if you have an A towards the end of the semester you wont have to take the rhetoric final. I will be taking him for ENGWR301 because I loved his teaching and I learned a lot.
He is amazing!!! I really enjoyed taking his class, he is very intelligent and I feel like I got a lot out of his class. He is smart , funny, caring and kind. I feel like I learned a lot and I was challenged to become a better writer. I love this guy! Weinshilboum is the bomb! Hot too!
Such an amazing professor that I have so far. Hes always there for students! He even notice the quietest students in the classroom. He never let anyone alone in my honest opinion. Participation matters too.
I am really satisfied with this professor. He makes the class really interesting and easy. He gave us a lot of extra credit opportunity. So that will bump your grade a lot. He is also hilarious and makes a lot of jokes. I recommend him for all my friends, and would definitely for you too that reading this comment. good luck :-)
Out of all the English professors Ive taken, Weinshilboum is the best one. Hes able to pin point your weaknesses and strengths. If you need clarification on his feedbacks, hell tell you. Hes definitely one to make you a better writer. I enjoyed his class, teaching style, and personality very much! Definitely recommend others to take him!
Weinshilboum is the best professor i've ever had. He makes the class very easy although it requires work. I've taken him for three semesters and he was really an inspirational to me. he made me love reading, and thought me to think critically in everything in life. you'll get to write essays with very interesting topic, so you'll never get bored.
TAKE HIS CLASS!! Hes the best professor Ive ever had. If you are not the best at english this class is perfect for you! He will help you and give you the tools to succeed in his class and prepare you for other writing classes for the future. I highly recommend his class to anyone.
This professor is Awesome! He truly cares for all his students and wants everyone to pass. I definitely recommend you take his classes.
My favorite professor!!! He totally made it fun, and interesting. I feel like Im a better writer and understand grammar and sentence structures, finally lol. Just come to class do the assignments. He offers extra credit opportunities. If you only miss 1 class and have an A, you can get exempt from the final! Take him, you wont be sorry!
Pretty cool teacher. His assignments arent difficult and hes straight forward with the type of assignments he assigns. Hes kinda funny.
Amazing Professor, but grades tough on the first essay. However, the class is pretty chill if you maintain some focus. Read 2 books. 3 essays. He is also has a great personality and knows how to v1Be.
straight up a fanny pack hater! (for good reason) overall I love weinshilboum's class, I've taken them twice and loved them both. take his class!!
AWESOME CLASS. Offers weekly zoom meetings which arent mandatory but very beneficial and very enjoyable. Not too many assignments and a reasonable amount of reading. Assigned reading highlights many authors with diverse backgrounds. Please be forewarned, this professor has an unnatural dislike of Fanny packs and Pumpkin spice.
I L O V E Professor Weinshilboum! He was my first introduction to college classes, and I don't think I've had a better teacher since. I am so happy I've been able to learn from him. Definitely take his class if you want an absolute gem of a teacher who's really kind and informative in grading. PS: Bring up fanny packs/pumpkin spice. the best :)
Weinshilboum has been my favorite professor thus far and was a great intro for me to the way of college courses. He was helpful and the work was very minimal. Only 3 essays and some discussion board posts. Will be taking him for ENGWR 301. Only negative is that he doesn't give out As for the first essay. Otherwise he has a great personality!
One of the best teachers at CRC. I took him for ENGWR 300/ ENGWR 3031. Gives clear instructions and works with you. He's totally hilarious and has fun lectures and discussions. You don't need to buy a textbook, but you need books (novels). There's quizzes, but you can pass w/ spark notes. He's a great teacher and genuinely cares about his students.
This prof was really nice even though the class was online. He's goes easy when grading essays which is a nice bonus.
I was nervous of taking his class at first because he was my first in person college class, but his class was easy to handle. Mostly just do your work and youll pass. Also read, theyre not difficult readings theyre actually really good and Im not much of a reader but his class definitely got me interested. Id highly recommend taking his class.
Took Weinshilboum for ENGWR 300 in summer 2020 online. Had a great experience so I took him again for 301 but in-person this time. Honestly, such a straightforward and enjoyable class! I would recommend him for any English class at CRC. Also, he allows you to miss two classes. Multiple papers, 1 group project/presentation at the end. Best professor
This teacher is a gem amongst many at CRC or Los Rios in general. Always supportive and takes his time to explain every detail to make sure every student understands the concept. He talks about his personal life and gives the students something to relate to and makes the class just more interesting by just being him.
Honestly he is one of my best professors at this community college. He is hilariously entertaining and straight forward with assignments and teaching. He is also very friendly to students and is up to date with his pop culture. Again highly recommend this professor for anyone who happens to struggle with English (On a good Note: he brings donuts).
Great professor to take! Very engaging during classroom lectures and fair when it comes to grading.
Great professor to take! Very fair grader when it comes to the papers and engaging during lectures.
I cannot recommend Prof Weinshilboum enough! I'm not the best student when it comes to homework and getting things in on time but he was willing to work with me to make sure I get the most out of this class and that I wouldn't fall behind. He makes this class so fun and he does an excellent job at getting the material across.
Probably one of the best professors I have ever taken at CRC. Super nice and caring, made class fun and the workload less stressful. Helped with any and all issues, wish all professors were like him!
Highly recommend professor Weinshilboum! He is incredibly thoughtful and caring and makes his class a safe and inviting place.
Professor Weinshilboum is an amazing, hilarious and caring professor. He is very easy to communicate with and will give helpful feedback on your writing assignments. His lectures are never boring, but rather entertaining. He creates an open and fun classroom learning environment.
He's seriously the best teacher at CRC. He's so funny, and he genuinely cares about his students. He's worth taking the class in person!
He's honestly the best teacher I've met so far, and he really cares about his students. His lectures are pretty entertaining, clear, and short. Also he doesn't give out lectures often, so it's pretty laid back class. Just make sure you attend his classes because he likes to give out a lot of extra credit and donuts.
Super chill teacher, I liked the writing assignments, has a few group projects, and one presentation at the end. Overall really cool guy/teacher. Cares about his students and I like that he's very accessible outside of class. I recommend taking him!
Professor Weinshilboum is a hilarious professor, and he makes going to college fun. He does give great feedback for your assignments, but he can grade a little hard when it comes to some of the assignments and essays. He is definitely a great professor, you just have to be an above average writer to get really good grades.
best professor, take his class!!!!
BEST ENGLISH PROFESSOR EVER. ONE OF MY FAVORITES BY FAR! He works really well with kids who have adaptation plans. HES HYSTERICAL! and loves to have fun. During the 3rd or 4th week he brought donuts to class! Get ready to read a novel and have pop quizzes on it!
Weinshilboum is sarcastic, funny, and easygoing. I attended his ENGWR 301 class for the Spring 2024 semester. You must stay on top of your work if you want to pass this class.
I like Professor Weinshilboum he is the best! I attended his ENGWR 301 class for the Spring 2023 semester. I liked his teaching style. He was always happy to help his students. As long as you study you will pass.
Professor Weinshilboum is a hilarious and engaging teacher who cares about his students. The class has reading assignments and pop quizzes, but using resources like Unstuck study can help with study prep. Highly recommend taking this course!
So good professor, I will definitely take this professor next semester again.
He always makes me laugh every day. He chooses articles and books that is not boring. His lectures are easy to follow. But, you have to put a good amount of effort in his writing to get the grade you wanted. He gives good feedback in essay assignments even though you will not know how many points you get from each category in the rubric. Take him.
He's a fantastic professor. If you HATE English, especially high school English, please take his class. English has never been my strong suit, until he made me realize it was and it truly can be anyone's. I have taken a couple of his classes and will be honestly sad when I no longer need to for my degree. I will always recommend him! He is awesome
Weinshilboum provided me with a greater appreciation to English as a subject and gave me confidence in my writing. I really enjoyed his class!
Took him for summer 2025 as my first professor ever, what a teacher man. Great lectures, great personality, extra credit opportunities, and just a great guy in general. Please take him.
He is amazing. I'd give him 10 stars if I could. He was my first experience to college and all my nerves immediately died. I was told that professors would be harsh and strict but he was super relaxed and chill. He likes students on an individual level and as long as you talk with him you will always be heard.
He's funny.
he was my first college english professor and i honestly couldn't have asked for a better teacher. he's so so funny and makes class enjoyable. definitely take his class!!!!!
He's honestly an outstanding teacher. He's so funny that you don't even realize he's teaching while being funny, but it completely sticks to your brain. I have so much respect for him and recommend him anytime I know someone needs to take an English class. I have nothing bad to say. TAKE HIS CLASS!!!
