By far the best teacher @ SBCC. If he had the ability to teach every course, all students would be A+ students!
Best English teacher that I have ever met in my life.
Probably the best English teacher for international students
very funny teacher...always cracks up jokes and allow late assignment
Fun english class!
Best teacher ever
funniest english teacher @ SBCC
fun class
Eng 100
best teacher ive ever had in my life. makes learning and being in class fun, keeps you laughing!
Good teacher with great reading choices. I enjoyed this class very much, and you will too.
This teacher cracked me up everytime I was in his class. English is a boring subject anyway, but he knows how to make the class not boring at all. Very friendly person also. Always laughed and cheerful in his class
Arrington is a great teacher. VERY cool, easy to talk to, and a blast to be around and learn from. Excellent analytical and creative teacher who happens to infuse a lot of fun into class. I recommend taking him without reservation. You won't regret him.
He's rad. Learned a lot. Doesn't play favorites. Just be respectful, do your homework and enjoy! Keeps the mood light and adds lots of humor, which makes learning fun! I highly suggest taking him for 100 and 110... if you can get in.
nice,cool,funny guy. He's the man.
mr arrington was probably the best english teacher i have ever had! he made the class so much fun and has the best personality! he is very understanding and he really cares about his students!
This is by far the most fun english class I have ever had, Arrington u have a great sense of humor and always keeps the class awake with ur silly jokes
Hi Mr. Arrington is the best, he is funny, respectful, and he makes learning fun. Very few teachers know how to do that, to teach and still have a good time while teaching. He understands you as a student. I personally hate English and going to other English class has always been a drag, but knowing
He has a really good personality!! He is great joker. take it! I am sure you'll love his class!!this is my first time to write in this cite! Also, his class is helpful on study!
No offense, it was an okay class, but he seemed to give favoritism to his past students. I got a B, mainly because of his quizzes, they were kind rough. Be sure and read what's going to be tested! If you do that, you're good. I don't think he appreciated my input, it was his stage and not a forum. Still, cool guy.
A good teacher that will understand issues. He is also is a great teacher for International students or Eng as a second language. Really funny a multicultural teacher and funiest teacher ever during 5 years of SBCC.
cool funky hippy guy
the night class kciked ass
Best teacher you could ever ask for. Too bad everyone knows this and you wont be able to get a seat...
Homey!!!!! You Rock. Coolest teacher I know during my College Career, possible even the best teacher I've ever had. I've never had such a smart-ass teacher, and never been such a smart-ass to a teacher before. lol Two thumbs up

He is the man! Why do you hesitate choosing his class? He takes care about every students in his class so well that sometimes I thought he was sensitive. Any way, he is the best! Hurry! His class will be close soon.
He is the best! To tell the truth, I hate English. But he can make English insteresting to me!!! Note: for international student, Mr. A will even prepare an translated Hamlet in your mother language!!

This guy is awesome! I've never had more fun in an English class! I wish I had taken all my classes before with him too!
HOMER IS THE MAN!!! he cracks loads of jokes and if you bring him a snickers/mars bar he will LOVE YOU
arrington is the best teacher I have ever had, he makes you feel at ease and he is very clear about what he wants done in the class.
No Comments
he is the funniest professor I have ever had!!! not so easy on the grading though!
arringtons the man, end of story
He is the best teacher I have ever had for English. He is a lovable guy. The class is highly enjoyable and at the same time it will make you think. He's in a league of his own.
Probably the best English teacher at SBCC, always one to crack jokes....Mr A lets you express yourself in writing a lot more than most other teachers would.
Mr. Arrington is a great teacher. He is very funny and is very helpful. He always gets his classes filled up quick!
everything here is true!
GREAT TEACHER and GREAT CLASS. Mr Arrington is the best English teacher by far. His class is easy and he treats you like an equal not a student. I defiantly recommend this class!!
BEST TEACHER I HAVE EVER EVER HAD .. this man is sooooo funny he should be a comedian. he is so understanding and fair. he teaches well although he is an easy teacher. i am never excited for an english class but i am ALWAYS excited for his class. he is THE best teacher at CC.. (hes worked in a prison and been a cab driver in NY! HAAHAHAHAA)
BEST TEACHER EVER..HE GIVES US FREE GUM AND MAKES JOKES THE ENTIRE CLASS PERIOD!AMAZING TEACHER
He is a great teacher! Always very helpful and makes class fun. Night or day, his class are fun. Definetly recommend!
He was very helpful and funny. It was a long class but with him as the teacher it seemed to go by quicker. He is easy and funny but you still learn from the guy. Arrington is definitely a GREAT pick!
I really enjoyed the class. He is so fun and smart. You should take it!!
good teacher,really fun class,its the only one i look foreward to in the week,i strongly recomend him,hes really funny too!
He is so funny!
mr.a-- Entertaining.. not boring.. although frankly i don't feel i learned that much. Take him if you don't want to be challenged, but enjoy some interesting conversations..some might be offended by his joking and when he puts people on the spot especially foreigners. He is though ultra cool and seems to be very kind-hearted....
Homer is the most entertaining and funny teacher you could have. I really enjoyed his class alot and learned well enough crap. The only thing that is annoying is you have to turn in your essay two days before the due date to turnitin.com. Otherwise he is good teacher.
he's a good teacher. He's really funny. We had interesting class discussions. He's a pretty good grader. The only bad thing is that you have to turn your essays in to turnitin.com or else he won't grade them, but other than that it's a pretty cool class.
oh man, that guy is so cool. i enjoyed going to his class, the best class at sbcc. the class is not too hard and he is very helpfull, he'll also work with you to give your best. great atmosphere
Hes a good teacher, very funny. Makes you laugh. Keeps you entertained. I feel bad for the foreigners though who dont understand what hes saying. I also dont feel as if hes teaching us anything regarding English, I hope I pass this class even though I havent learned much since English 80
I was taught by Mr Arrington back in 1990 at Ventura. I was his British mature student and we laughed at the BBC English! Back now in the UK I still remember him and his class.
GREAT CLASS TO ATTEND! VERY EXCITING!
Great guy. Really funny. But he didnt teach much, or maybe I just didnt learn anything. If you already feel comfortable about your writing and you just feel like you want to have some fun before getting into ENG 110, then you should definitely take him!
The only class I actually looked forward to going to. Great teacher, book was okay but didn't use very much, but that's just me :-)
Prof is great! Very fun, laughs a lot, and actually gets to know the students. I didn't feel like I learned too much, but then again, it's an introductory English course, one should know the material by 8th grade. One of my favorite teachers, and I've seen him around town many times and he's always willing to chat! Thanks H!
Hes very funny teacher.. not boring at all/ Class is mandatory. if you late, he makes questions in other words he will put you on the spot. His class is perfect to kick back but if you wanna to learn something take someone else, becaue this class just for fun.. NO ADDS

he was the most awful teacher i've ever head. not serious at all and ruined my experience.
I had Mr. Arrington for Critical Thinking when he was at Ventura College. He is one of the few teachers I still remember fondly. Had a great time in his class; he was funny and helpful, and cared about his students; even though I slacked off a little, he refused to let me get anything less than an A.
This class was a waste of time. He messed around the whole class, and when it came to the serious work, he would save it until the last five min of class to talk about. He favors Certain students specially pretty girls. He is a complete jerk and yells ALL THE TIME. bad teacher, bad class.
suppper chill. take if you dont care if you learn something or not.
take if you dont mind not learning anything. suppper chill though!!
I loved him. he made my experience in that class sooo much fun! I loved him!
Hilarious teacher! very random.. you don't learn much, but he is an easy pass/no pass :)
He is very bad for international students, talk too fast, not helpful. many of my friends fail.
He was horrible. I love english and have never disliked an english teacher but i found myself completely uninterested. It seems like he has no idea what he is even talking about. The class is easy but as far as his teaching goes...i regret taking the class.
Homer is awesome! I loved his class. He is VERY funny and very real. Did not have one class of his I didn't laugh in. He keeps it light and fun. Lots of reading, lots of work, but good feedback on papers to help you become a better writer.
Nice guy, but not very focused. Didn't gain much insight on assigned readings. Discussions covered random topics outside the reading. Not much direction in class. Unclear what was expected of you. You don't know your grade until the end. Funny and kind, but not at all serious. I wish he'd been more focused on the subject instead of a good time.
great teacher....i loved going to class=) everyone should take him
i looooooooooove him! he helps out major if you are really having issues and he is hilarious! he is very sarcastic but if oyu have that smart ass attitude like me, youl love him!
Very funny Professor always keeps you interested in lectures easy A if you stay on task. Verry flexible (not literally)Seems like you dont learn much but thats if YOU dont take the class seriously. FUNNY GUY!!!!
awsome dude!!!!!
Wonderful teacher! Made me remember how much I love literature and I changed my major to English. Introduced me to Latin American literature, which I love!!! Great guy!!
He is simple the best. I wish all the teachers were a little more like him. Teachers like him make life in school easier. ( I love his sense of humor)
He was a great teacher and kept the lectures fun and easy to understand. gives good feedback and great tips for essays and helps you understand each topic for use in essays. he's flexible with deadlines. and just wants to see you succeed! just put effort into it and youll do great.
BEST TEACHER EVER!!! I wish he taught every class ad CC. He is AMAZING! As long as you do you essays (I turned in most of them late) and still got a B+ and attend lecture you will get an A no problem! So much fun and he's hilarious!! I would recommend him hands down to anyone!
Homes is a great guy, hilarious and keeps classes fun to go to! Kind of a grind on assignments but hes laidback and will work with you to get assignments done. Hes really nice and makes class enjoyable and gets everyone talking and social with each other. Def would recommend him to anyone!
Arrington is a great guy, very helpful. Work hard and you'll do great in his class, I've taken both ENG 110 and 111 and enjoyed both classes, he definitely keeps us entertained and challenged. Best professor I've had at sbcc hands down!
He is the best English professor in my life. Even though his class is not easy and he requires lots of work, they are worthwhile.
i love this teacher
LOVE this guy. Super normal, super Hilarious..... Each class i was entertained and he let us out almost 30 minutes early each time. He's clear on every assignment. He really cares about what you gain from this class and life in general. Absolutely take this class.
Take him! Such an amazing teacher, he's hilarious and keeps things light! He talks to his students on a personal level and makes a ton of jokes. 4 essays which are really not bad at all and very easy homework assignments. For sure have a great time in this class i would never take anyone else!
WHAT A FUNNY GUY
THE BEST TEACHER IN THE WORLD HOMER ROCKS!! TAKE HIM HE IS AWSOME AND AMAZING AND SUPER COOL! I LOVE HIM
This guy is Legendary at teaching. He is helpful and his class is never boring, and i do mean never. I would definetly reccomend him.
He is NOT for those with no sense of humor, otherwise he's one of the best instructors I've had. If you want to know where you stand in his class, ask, and he will tell you. If you want to know what's expected of you, it's in his sylabus and he expects the best from you. The reading isn't easy, but his lively class discussions make sense of it.
As far as i am concerned, Homer is the best english at SBCC. I took eng 100 & 110 with him. He explains everything clearly and he gives you plenty of time to do the homework. Class discutions are really interesting and fun. If you pay good attention, u will get something to write about.
Makes all classroom discussions interesting and funny. Highly recommend
Thanks Mr. Arrington for being such an awesome teacher with a great sense of humor. I really enjoyed your class and you. Any one out there want to take a English class with a great teacher!!! This one is for you!
Mr. A is an awesome teacher with a great sense of humor. You have questions he answers~He is very supportive and really cares. Thanks Mr.A. Cheers
best teacher ever!!!!! cool, funny, and best of all u lear while u have fun in his class! take him!!!!
Taking class right now, Mr. Arrington is an enthusiastic teacher. Although PD itself is just something that's not fun to learn, class was always fun. Arrington has good stories, life advice, and his class is not boring.
If you're looking to be entertained he is the guy to take. But, if you're interested in learning, he's probably not your best bet. Regardless, this is not a difficult course and he does not have high expectations for anyone (including himself); just show up and do the assigned homework and essays.
best english prof in sbcc! he is willing to learn with you and he is very approachable. keeps d class interesting. he has a great sense of humor. d' only english prof in sbcc who is willing to help and will not judge you. he is just simply a great professor!
Mr H is the best professor you can have! He is very helpful, kind and his classes are very fun to attend. Assignments were not too hard and he gave a lot of good feedback on papers and there were never any problems with his class. If you want to have a fun semester and be happy going to english class, take Mr H!
One of the coolest professors on campus! I've never had more fun in a class. Homer is hysterical! He has our class cracking up every time we meet! As far as work goes, there is quite a bit of reading, but nothing too demanding. His grading is fair and he gives awesome feedback on all assignments. You will love taking any of his classes!
He is your homie for the semester. Respect him and you would be fine. DO NOT BRING FOOD TO CLASS!!!
Homer is really a good teacher over all. The class was never boring! You could definitely skip a class or two and not let it affect your grade but there is usually a quiz, assignment, or extra credit given in class so you should avoid skipping often. Good reads, easy assignments, but prepare for the final essay and research essay! Tough!
Homie for sure. Mr. A is the best! He helped me with my papers and always made sure the class was having a good time. He made sure too that everyone was understanding the work.
I LOVE this guy. He assigns some sort of homework after every class, but it's usually very simple. I was never afraid to ask any questions, & he allows you to revise ALL of your essays. He is also hilarious! So class is fun. Our ENG 110 course theme was food and that made writing more interesting. Definitely would take him again!!
Homer is the homie. He is really laid back and makes class entertaining, he jokes around a lot and doesn't assign too much homework. I would definitely take him for any of the english classes he teaches!
Homer was one of the most caring, compassionate and funniest teachers I have ever had. I loved coming to class, even though it was English. I loved this class, and I wish he taught 110 in the fall so I could have taken him. If you are looking for an English Teacher, pick him, he is the best.
He is the best! The easiest professor i have ever had. I passed his english 100 without any pain in the Fall semester. Very nice, Considerate and Funny! Pick him if you need to take an english class.
Great teacher, take his classes!
this dude makes coming to class just brighten your day up. He's hilarious, yet makes sure to get work done.
Professor Arrington is a great professor. His Class is the funniest as well as he is. English class was more enjoyable with him. Gives good feedback and helpful on the assignments !
Best English teacher I have even met in college. He is so funny, nice and friendly and class will never get bored. I would like to take his other English class.
Realist and funniest teacher you'll ever have.
best professor I have ever had in sbcc and he is also the funniest teacher who makes you enjoy the class!!!
Very nice professor. He is a good man.
Very nice man. I like him.
