Prof. Percaccio is a great guy. You can literally have a normal conversation with him. He wants everyone to succeed. But if you want to actually improve on your writing he does not help in this area at all. He just grades your paper, he gives little or none critique on your paper on what was wrong with it and what you can do to make it better.

He shows a clear grading criteria of what you need to do to get an A. His midterm and final is all on the textbook. Not difficult at all. The cons are he doesn't care often as others.

By far and away the best professor at Kbcc. I took him for English 24 and then English 65 in the summer. I strongly recommend you take him for any English class he teaches. Inspires and gets out of you what you dont think you have when it comes to writing.

Professor Percaccio's class was very entertaining and he is a great professor to take for an 8:30 AM class to wake you up. The novels/short stories chosen for the class were all great interesting reads, but he is a very tough grader for essays. I was never sure what he wanted in a paper and did not do as well as I would have liked. Otherwise v good

Professor Percaccio was one of my favorite professors at KCC! Truly cares for his students and drops nuggets of wisdom every class (plus he's hilarious)! We read NYT articles for papers & that allowed everyone to pick a topic that interested them. Our final essay was in class and could be anything we read in a short stories book he assigned,

Frank cultivates a sort of, "stage persona," for teaching. He's a laid back, funny guy who's everybody's friend. Until he's off-stage. Then the act is over and he will spend time laughing bravely and derisively, behind students backs. His classes are fun, but you won't learn much. He's cool, if that's what you're looking for.
