He's very funny. He actually kept the class awake from 6p to 9p. He made Logic interesting. It was fun. He's entertaining. I like the way he teaches.

Very sarcastic and funny. His class is simple as far as grading goes. But you do have to show up to class. That's 1/3 of the entire grade. Plus, with extra credit, you can turn a C into an A.

Mr. Holder was a very challenging instructor, but was always friendly and willing to help a student understand the material to the best of his ability. I would highly recommend his classes to any student.

Best teacher at PJC out of 54 credits taken so far!

Very easy class, at first I was going to drop because I could not understand the material but I am coming away from the class with the one of the highest grades. He is very funny and makes the class interesting. He acts tough the first day but he is just a teddy bear

Mr. Holder rocks out. By far and away, one of the best professors I've ever had at PJC. He makes sure to go over ALL the material which will be covered on the tests. The papers which are assigned are usually fun and interesting. His lectures are funny and insightful. He just completely rocks out.

Great instructor, makes the information easy to learn.

By far and away the best professor I've had at PJC thus far. This jovial nerd gives some of the most interesting and insightful lectures of any college classroom. A great teacher and a great person!

This guy is so freakin hilarious! I've only had the class for 3 weeks and i've had a blast being in his class! he really makes his lectures interesting and it really keeps me thinking AFTER the class. Hes an awesome guy and i recommend him to anyone.

Great guy and teacher. I just think the whole group project think is garbage b/c you have losers that don't wanna do anything!

Witty, insightful, thought provoking and HILARIOUS lecturn-ability! Come prepared to listen and discuss topics. It's helpful to do the reading before class discussions, though.

I loved having him for a teacher and enjoyed his class.

Professor Holder rocks my world. He's hilarious and really makes class fun. I HIGHLY recommend him as your teacher.

Mr. holder is awesome! Extremely knowledgeable, helpful, witty, sarcastic, funny and super nice. He gives lectures and the lecture notes he provides are a big help. The classroom mental exercises are thought provoking. There is a quiz almost every week, but as long as you read the assigned chapter and study the lecture notes for that week you will

He has excellent knowledge of his subject and conveys it well. I am sorry that he is constrained by the syllabus. He makes philosophy come alive when he strays.

Tons of group work, also you need to plan on being there....attendence counts has a huge part of the final grade.

Teacher is funny. Super Easy. Easy quizes. Test are easy. Group assingment is pretty lame tho. very easy on grading essay. recommend. Im not a school person. but this class is easy.

A very good teacher. Nice and interesting. Show up for class and you can make a good grade

I abolutely LOVE Mr. Holder! He is an amazing guy. very funny and makes you intrested in philosophy whether you were at first or not! Highly recommend this class

Awesome easy quizzes come from powerpoints tests from quizzes. very fair gives extra credit.

funny teacher! the only thing i didnt like was the group project it was very hard to maintain group cooperation. gives quizzes start of every class. emails all notes barely uses book, all quiz and and test ?'s come from notes and not book. dont be scared by the 7 page syllabus! :) great teacher

Awesome Prof. Mr.Holder covers the material and entertains at the same time!

Mr Holder will e-mail you notes a few days before you actually go over them in class. His 10 question quizzes are easy as long as you at least take a look at the notes. Lectures are fairly entertaining and he will provide extra credit.

Holder is pretty funny. I had him for a night class that lasted 3 1/2 hours, but he made the time go by quicker than I expected. Lots of notes but everything is fairly simple to understand.

Took this class online. Wonderful teacher! Very funny and sarcastic. His class makes you question what you believe and why you believe it. Thought it would weaken my faith, but only made it stronger. My absolute favorite course of all the ones I've completed!

Great teacher, very helpful. I took his class online and loved it.

Mr Holder very nice man. down2earth very approachable. his 6 quizzes(online) are not hard, 2 test you need to studyonly(mid/final inclass&online), use notes. he lectures from pps. But I used text and pps to pdf. over all I would recommend this instructor. He like class participation, group assigments.Intresting class overall.Generous grading.

He's an amazing teacher. Took him for the best online experience I have ever had. The powerpoints correlated and assisted the textbook. The discussion forums were helpful for our understanding and relevant to the material we were studying. Again, a great teacher. He should be a professor soon, I HOPE!

Mr. Holder is an amazing teacher and his class is very rewarding and interesting. I look forward to his class because it truly helps to broaden your mind.

I didn't expect to enjoy this class, but Holder's enthusiasm for the subject was infectious. He keeps the class interesting with group projects and discussions. Don't bother buying the book never opened it once! He's not and easy teacher, but you leave knowing you've learned something.

He is very prompt in grading and critiquing work. This is helpful to improve current assignments. I may not ace the class, but I am learning a lot. In spite of the comments about the textbook, I floundered for the first week until my book came that I had ordered online. Spend the money!

It's easy to tell Holder is passionate about philosophy in general. He tries to teach in a way even the most uninterested parties can learn something from his class. Encourages group work by assigning a group project for the end of the term. Never really used the textbook though. He is quick at grading and responding to questions.

I had no interest in Ethics, but it was required for the course I am going into. I ended up really enjoying the class because Mr. Holder made it interesting. He teaches more toward the philosophy side, but as long as you go to class and do all of the assignments, you will do fine.

I absolutely LOVE Mr. Holder! He made the class extremely fun and will work with you. If you have an attendance problem, he allows you to make up your absences. He is one of my favorite teachers!

By far, the funniest professor I've ever had. His Schwarzenegger impressions were hilarious! Easy class..you'll enjoy him.

I took the online class and he was the perfect teacher for this type of class. He responded quickly to any questions. If you need an elective, take this course with this professor!

Best college teacher I've taken so far. He is really interesting when he lectures and his workload isn't too bad either. He is a super nerd which makes him more enjoyable to listen to when he uses South Park and Futurama references. Great teacher that you should take for a humanity credit.

I absolutely LOVE Mr. Holder! He made the class extremely fun and will work with you. I would not recommend missing any of his classws, but if you do,he allows you to make up your absences. He is one of my favorite teachers, if not the favorite. He has a great personality and is not afraid to show it. He also allows extra credit in his class.

Mr. Holder made me gain an interest in the subject, something that I had no prior interest in. The class was not extremely easy but not hard either. I really appreciated everything I got from it. Mr. Holder is definitely the best professor I have had thus far.

Holder is a great instructor and keeps your attention! He does not give a "perfect score" on anything which I did not agree with. He is helpful. If you speak in his class, he is respectful and he encourages interaction in the class. I enjoyed his class and would take it again. He is not easy but you learn the material

I was not excited about taking philosophy, but it had to be done. Mr. Holder was a great professor, there was a lot of assignments due but as long as you put in the effort you should do fine! His lectures can be long and boring, but if you have the right people in your class it can be entertaining.

He's an authentic teacher. I've read a lot about the way he goes off topic; GOOD! College is an intellectual experience, not just dry textbook reading. He discusses things that can be "taboo", especially for the south. Stimulating conversations about current issues & he knows his stuff. I've taken two of his classes thus far, and would take another

Geat guy very humerous!! Is caring and deticated

Professor holder was a very interesting guy who really cared about philosophy. He genuinely cared about what he was teaching but it was very heavy in homework. Only two papers in a writing intensive class so that was nice. lectures sometimes did ramble though

Very caring and dedicated teacher, half these reviews rate him bad since they didn't show up to the actual class and therefore complain about Mr. Holder rejecting their opinions. If your paper is on topic and you are creative in your thinking you will do well in this class. Great teacher would take again if I could.

Loved him, I'm actually taking a second class of his this summer. Pay attention to lectures! They are very interesting so it won't be a problem (Also he cold calls so make sure you are reading what you are supposed to be reading!)

Mr Holder is a great teacher And I would definitely take another class that is being taught by him.

Mr. Holder is hilarious. I never left his philosophy class in a bad mood, and I feel like I really came to understand the material because of his teaching style. My only complaint is that he doesn't manage time that effectively, but that may be because everyone always wants to talk because the material is controversial.

I'll be as impartial as I can. He can be a bit rude at times. But he is by far the best teacher I've ever had. Responds to emails about class material almost instantly. I've sent probably 50 or so.. He loves philosophy, so he's always ready to help you understand. I learned a lot in this class. Although it was reading heavy, I enjoyed it.

Mr. Holder gives plenty of feedback and responds to emails quickly. He also gives a large chunk of extra credit. The homework assignments can be tricky if you are not experienced in philosophy, but he grades mostly on participation and completing assignments on time. I learned thinking and writing skills that I will use in day to day situations.

He teaches ethics so you can understand it. There is a lot of homework and hardly any tests so your grade will count heavily on homework and attendance. Hes not afraid to touch sensitive topics which I believe is a benefit to the class.

Professor Holder is an exceptional teacher!

Mr. Holder is not afraid to address sensitive topics. He is willing to help support you. Amazing professor!

He is passionate about ethics and it caused me to be more interested. He expects you to read a lot and be prepared to discuss. I enjoyed the class.

Holder is very passionate about what he lectures, but has a tendency to go on very long tangents that take from class time. You'll have a set of discussion questions from the chapters each class, that you NEED to read & answer b/c they are actually discussed in class. He doesn't make you feel dumb when you get a question wrong, which is encouraging

He is amazing and has really thought provoking discussions. He requires you to read from the text in advance and answer the questions from the text book which is only 5 questions (not graded)because he will go over everything in class. If he calls on you and you aren't prepared it will negatively effect your grade because participation is a factor.

Proffessor Holder gives amazing lectures. Definitely passionate about his teachings! He's funny and cares about his students. Just make sure you participate and show up.

Y'all I'll be honest with you this class is hard. If you don't read the work, multiple times, & PowerPoint stuff or try and glaze through it you will not pass. This class is a lot of work. I'd wish I had taken it when I wasn't taking other harder classes. Holder is a good guy, and infuses comedy into his classes, but a challenging class overall.

Great professor! Class lectures are based from power points and the book. Not a harsh grader at all. Typical 3 essay class with a few quizzes but that's all.

He is a really good teacher who cares about what he is teaching his students!

Super understanding, had to miss an assignment due to some personal health problems, he gave me almost a week extra to complete it. Definitely cares about teaching & appreciates when you put in effort. A little slow at grading but wasn't too much of an issue for me personally.
