The easiest teacher ever. How could you not know what's going to be on his quizzes? He goes over the material in class, and if you halfheartedly pay attention, you can pass. This is an easy A, especially if English isn't your first language. He will not give anyone anything lower than a C on papers, even if it makes absolutely no sense!

Professor Daniels has a dry sense of humor and tends to laugh at his own jokes, but then again, who doesn't? He's easy to get along with. Don't feel like you have to befriend him to get an 'A'. All you need is common sense to pass his course. Don't stress; he's lenient. Have fun with it! *FYI-He teaches at the Central Campus of BCC.*

If you want to learn as much as possible, this isn't the teacher for you. If you want a teacher that shows up 15minutes late everyday or doesn't show at all this is the professor for you. Close to no homework and just 1 really big research project for the semester. Smart man just not the teacher type.

Useless. Gives papers on 8th grade level topics, and gives random reading and writing assignments in class (that he doesn't grade) so he can sit and grade essays. We watched two movies because he didn't feel like teaching. very conceded, spent the first days of class talking about himself. Won't be surprised when he's fired.

Although Prof Daniels thinks and talks fast and straight 2 the point, he s clear on his requests - which are nothing but reasonable. His grading is fair and clear. His dry sense of humor may not appeal to all, but he s nice and respectful. His tests are so easy that blindfolded ESOL students could get an A. I d have him for ENC 1102 in a heartbeat!
