Has great knowledge of the subject, very enthusiastic and SUPER FUNNY!! Very helpful, relates history to modern affairs. Must take!!!!
Great professor who's very interesting to listen to so paying attention shouldn't be hard.
Lentine was one of my favorite professors hands down. He was really clear in his lectures. If you want to pass his exams just focus in class and show up! He is hilarious and understanding. Everything is on blackboard usually prior or right after class so don't worry about missed notes.
Lentine is by far one of the best professors I've had. He's lenient, which coincidentally is an anagram for Lentine. The tests are pretty easy and he explains the content well, amazing lecture.
He's a great professor i really enjoyed him. He gave me only two assignments both one page and both in the beginning of the semester. His lectures are on blackboard so missing notes is not an issue. Hes a great talker so paying attention isnt difficult. His tests are easy. I had a take home test and final and two in class. Hes very fair and cool.
He's one of the best teachers you could ever ask for. So chill! If he still has a spot open in his class take him! Very nice guy
He's more than amazing
He is a very fair professor just DO NOT PLAGIARIZE he hates that. He teaches yell just stay awake in his class. DO NOT TAKE YOUR PHONE OUT. and if you have a question ask him he is always glad to help. he also replies to emails quick.
Best professor for Cor 100. Just show up & do the work. Don't talk or be annoying. Don't plagiarize he will fail you. Gives excellent advice.
Best professor ever! There for you when you need him and has a great sense of humor. Take him if you can, you will not be sorry!
LOVE THIS GUY. The best professor on campus! Very understanding professor, and willing to help you if you need it. He will make learning fun, and always makes the class laugh. If you get the chance you have to take his class!!! As far as the material he really makes the subject easier for you to understand and keeps it interesting.
Taking cor100 with professor Lentine was the best decision I made the last semester. He was so easy on us and his lectures were not long like other professors. Besides that, he is a really cool professor. If I would take this class again, absolutely, I will be with professor Lentine.
Lentine is awesome!!!! Interesting lectures. He is understanding and makes class fun. I would definitely recommend him. I really enjoyed the Reacting to the Past Game, you will find out soon!! :)
Professor Lentine is a very professional teacher, he really made the class fun and easy to understand, his tests are not hard and make sure you read the questions for extra credit!!
He provides so much review sheets for tests, and lots of other materials to help you!!
Lentine has great energy, a huge heart and is passionate about the material he teaches. He makes comedy references which I love the most. In other words, hurry up and register for his class, duh!
Lentine is a good professor. Relates well to students because he's very young. Class is easy, practically gives you the answers to the essays (all handwritten) and tests. Don't talk in his class.. gets really mad if you're disruptive
Lentine is AWESOME. He's really nice, really helpful, and cares about his students. He likes what he does, and it makes the class more enjoyable. Just don't come late and don't talk during class. He's easy-mannered, easy to please, has easy exams, and easy lectures. He's also very easy to talk to, and very understanding. He's LENIENT, how ironic.
Makes the boring lectures not so boring with his corny yet funny jokes. Very nice teacher, understanding, if I could get an A in his class believe me you can. Definitely recommend. Did I mention Lentine went to Penn State? Its true he did, he will tell you that often. Kind've brags about himself, but it doesn't matter you'll get a good grade.
Amazing professor! Really helps the students out and he's very understanding. Definitely take his class
Great class he knows how to make people laugh
LOVED HIM. BEST PROFESSOR EVER! Caring, understand, big sweet heart & really understands the subject he teaches. Rock on Lentine!!
Lentine is the man! The guy is a straight savage. He gets fly and is all about making that paper. If I could I would 100% take this class again. I even recommended him to some of my friends.
Awesome teacher. Explains things better than anyone else. Wresteling fanatic. Teaches United States fundamentals in the best way possible. Great story teller. And amazing human being
Lentine is a great professor easy A for sure. Just study his power points, his review sheets, and come to class on time. He's very funny and animated I truly enjoyed his class I would definitely take him again if I could. Oh and he always smells like coconut.
Best professor! Gives really good lectures and gives you the review for the tests, easy A. His stories are always related to the lectures, really worth taking this class with him. He is a bit sassy which makes him really funny and enjoyable for the class. Just dont be late for his lecture and no phone! I would take his class again if I could.
Great prof would deff take again!!Easy class!!
Hands down easiest class I've taken. Lentine is so lenient and understanding just don't take advantage of it! The reviews are the test so always look at the review. A good class to take if you need to boost your gpa, it's and easy A. Don't buy the textbook you don't use it at all and there is no homework.
easy class
Best professors . He makes the boring lectures not so boring. I very enjoy in his class.
Best professor ever! Prof. Lentine is one in a million. If you show up to class on time and study his god sent review sheets you will pass with flying colors. Recommended him to everyone I know and would DEFINITELY take him again if I could.
Without a doubt one of the best professors at CSI. He genuinely cares about his students and is looking to pass everyone. I actually looked forward to attending class. He made the material easy to understand and relatable. He might be little but his personality is large and in charge and his jokes can really brighten up your day when you need it.
This professor has made my first semester pretty easy. His work was very easy as long as you came to class everyday and did what you were supposed to do. HATES IF YOU TALK AND TAKE OUT YOUR PHONE! Trust me I know from experience DONT DO IT you will regret it. Tests are from notes and review sheets study those and you'll get an A on everything.
Prof. Lentine is the hilarious! His lectures are not boring whatsoever. Not much homework. He genuinely cares and is passionate about what he does. Great guy and not hard to look at either! DON'T be tardy! Also Bae can wait ( NO CELL PHONES)
Prof. Letine took over my COR100 class MID SEMESTER when my previous teacher had gotten ill. He picked up the slack like a champ and didn't complain not once. Great teacher, really learned a lot. Funny, and engaging. Lucky to have gotten him who cared about my class actually learning something. DON'T use your phone and DON'T be late.
Prof. Lentine is an awesome professor. I wish all of mine were like him. He makes the class engaging, funny and together. I learned a lot of things. Even got engaged in some shows he recommended on Netflix which were so interesting. Make sure you follow his rules and you will be fine. Oh please No cell phone usage in the class. WWE time
lots of lecture material but overall a good teacher. really nice guy, can tell he cares about his students.
One of my favorite professors. Professor Lentine truly cares about his students and is very funny. Doesn't tolerate cell phones or lateness. Makes the boring core lectures interesting. He is the professor everyone wants to take for core.
Not everyone knows how to teach but professor Lantine is the best, he makes lactures fun. He is caring all you have to do is talk to him.
Excellent teacher who cares about his students. He made class enjoyable and has a great attitude .Very academically informed and related to students . Great professor!
The best professor Ive had in my life
He is very fair. He is very funny. He gets whats going on in this country and is not afraid to express his personal opinion. If you do not study his slides you will not do well on the tests and essays. Does not allow cell phones or computers. Probably one of the best professors in the whole college.
This professor by far is the best professor I have ever encountered. Professor Lentine is hilarious and understanding. You do not get too much homework and the tests as long as you study, will be okay. You don't use the book though so don't bother buying it, and no phones!!
Absolutely LOVE him. Best professor in CSI. Took him for my first semester of college a year ago and still have yet to find a professor like him. Truly one of a kind! Says his job is to ease you into college and he does exactly that. Hes also cute so thats a bonus. TAKE HIM, TAKE HIM, TAKE HIM!
I loved his class and I definitely would love to take his class again ... the best professor to explain materials and knows what he's talking about all the time ... and very fair and respected professor
This is hands down the best professor in csi. Besides the fact that he's absolutely hilarious, he's easy going knows what he's doing and actually helps you understand every topic. Anyone with a negative comment is lying guys TAKE HIM HES THE MANNN!!
Professor Lentine was such a blessing! He made complicated topics easily "digestible". His charisma and incredible sense of humor definitely made this lecture a good experience . His slides are really good and he presents the material very well. Overall, he's the best professor I've ever had! Pay attention in class and put in work, you'll do well!
Prof. Lentine is one of the most respected and hilarious professor, I've ever had. COR 100 sounded really boring, but I supposed to take it because of the requirement. Luckily, I took Prof. Lentine's class and he changed my point of view towards COR because his lectures are easy to understand and enjoyable and he is a truly gifted professor.
He is definitely the professor you want in any subject. He's a genius in his field but he is also hilarious and really teaches in a way that makes you want to learn. I will really miss this professor as well as the class which has become like my family.
Lentine is honestly one of the best professors I've ever had. even though I ended up not needing COR100 I'm still alright with it because he just made the class very enjoyable. He's hilarious and understanding. Take him if you can, even if it's for an elective. Lateness and absences are very important, you can fail NO CELL PHONES, "BAE CAN WAIT"
Great teacher overall
Don't use you phone in his class!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Professor Lentine is amazing! He knows what he is doing and what he is teaching, super cool professor who you can really talk regarding any unknown material. Great guy who loves to help anybody out, he is an inspiration to any individual wishing to pursue any career they want. He does not take sides and he will make you laugh every time in class!
Hilarious teacher that makes his classes more of a conversation rather than spit facts at you to memorize. Plenty of opportunity to do really well and gives extra credit throughout the semester. I transferred from another school and Lentine is one of my favorite professors yet. Wants you to succeed and actually cares about the material and student.
Professor Lentine is a generous professor that made learning about history a pleasure. If you can take him for Core 100, do yourself a favor and do so.
He is by far the best professor you will ever take and i strongly recommend him to everyone - your friendly neighborhood spider-man
best professor ever, if you take this you would have a great time
Just one word. AWESOME. Give yourself a gift and take this class!
awesome teacher. relates to everyday life. would take again
One of the best professors I have ever taken! His teaching style is very captivating!
Very nice man, very fair and fun teacher. I highly recommend taking his classes, you won't regret it.
Very helpful . BEST PROFESSOR !!!!!!!
Excellent teacher who cares about his students.
Smart, intelligent and the BEST !!!!
All professors should learn from Lentine how to teach . Very respectful and fair .
Use your phone, come late, miss your class and blame yourself. Very helpful an respectful professor. VERY FAIR !!!!!
He's a great guy. Loves his students and he is very helpful.
One of the most brilliant professors
An amazing professor who truly cares about his students, and has a great sense of humor. As long as you respect him and his rules, the class will be very enjoyable.
He is the best professer
Pretty cool professor but also kinda intimidating. Grades VERY fair. Real easy assignments but his tests are a little hard. I recommend attending his final review class if you're struggling because it'll help you out a lot.
A cool professor. Great humor and knows how to start a lecture by making the students laugh. He uses slides to teach with very useful information. Light work so there is reason to NOT PASS. Make sure you follow his rules.
Prof Lentine is such a great and inspirational professor and is super funny, do your work, stay off your phone and you'll pass! He's really passionate about his work.
There aren't enough professors like him! He is funny, caring, smart, easy going... Do not plagiarize he will check it! Very easy on the test, don't be late he really pays attention to that. His classes are super fun and he makes awesome slides ( study the slides!!!) Easily passable class
HE IS GREAT!
Professor Lentine is the best. He lectures exactly what is on the test and never fails to correct his own mistakes if there are any. All the test are online and you have ample time to complete them. He often makes a review sheet with answers to direct questions that cover some of the test. He's great.
To sum up Professor Lentine in the rationed 350 characters would do him a disservice. Professor Lentine is a rarity amongst the staff; you will find professors that teach you to critically think few and far between throughout your stay at CSI. The man is a intelligent, hilarious and down-to-earth as could be also he may be a Jedi. Take him.
Professor Lentine is great! I would without a doubt take him again. He often gives extra points on tests and will always own up to the few errors he might make, changing your grade accordingly. He makes history fun and constantly crack jokes. His tests are his lectures verbatim. I would definitely recommend printing them out as outlines to study.
Professor Lentine was great. The grading was clear and his tests were all online. You could take them at home if you want. He even provided amazing review sheets. If you stay off your phone, wait until after class to talk to your friends, and can manage to come in on time you should have no problem.
I took Prof Lentine for Cor 100. Great professor. Very in depth with his material and Explains it all! He is funny, keeps the class engaged and is patient with his students. Pay attention, Study the material and you will pass his class with out a doubt. If all professors were like him college, it would be a breeze.
I expected Core 100 to be the typical class but American History was turned on its head. Professor JL was always prepared. Always leaves you wanting to read his power points. He is an excellent lecturer and is comical about his teaching method. This put me at ease to learn without realizing. He is a teacher as well. CSI, salute.
Good class. His passion for the subject oozes through his lectures. Makes the topic interesting, leaves you eager to hear and learn more. Good job!!! Show up, stay of your phone and pay attention.
Lentine is such a great Prof. He explained everything in a way that made everyone so interested in every topic. His Star Wars references are hilarious, I was laughing 95% of the time, made Saturday morning class enjoyable. His exams were all online which is great, just show up, keep your phone away and pay attention. I wish he taught more classes!
The best professor ever. He actually cares about what he teaches and makes the lectures enjoyable. He is super funny and chill but you have to do your work and take it serious. He gives u the powerpoints to print out and his tests are online. 15/10 recommend
The best professor at CSI! Take him for COR 100 if you can. He made the course funny, and interesting. I had him for a Saturday morning class, and I don't regret it, and I never dreading going to class.
Really nice guy
if you dont take lentine for cor100, then youre an idiot.
Prof. Lentine is a great and funny guy. All you need to do is show up to class, participate, study from his slides, and do good on the tests.
Professor John is a cool & passionate professor. However, his lectures tend to be confusing sometimes. His tests are online but definitely not easy. Participation matters & affects your grade clearly. If youre not familiar with the topics prior to entering this class, being able to participate is close to impossible.
Professor Lentine is great. Hes lenient and will work with you if you need an extension. Just talk to him. His lectures are clear and he explains everything. He gives us review sheets for the tests. All the questions come from the review sheets. If you think the tests are hard, you arent doing your work. Do not miss the final review.
Slides are up before the class starts. Syllabus lays out all the readings from day one. There is plenty of time to familiarize yourself with the topic. Just say something. He really cares too so talk to him if youre having an issue and hell work with you.
Honestly one of the best professors Ive ever had. He doesnt like cellphones in class but his lectures are so entertaining you wont want to be on it. He makes his own slides and has his tests online (AND HE GIVES YOU ALL THE SLIDES TO LOOK AT). Nicest guy and will answer any question. He really throws himself into his work. This is a real pro!
Awesome teacher!
Very informative.
It was a pleasure having Mr. Lentine teach US CORE. If I could have him teach ALL of my next college courses I definitely would! He is very clear in how he explains the material for this course!
A knowledgeable professor with a unique way of teaching and characteristics. Which livens up a crash course of US history. I recommend him to anyone especially with a sense of humor.
If I have to grade my professor I will give him A because he is a very good teacher.
He is a great Professor, he-knows how to answer to each question . He knows all of his students and has a lot of patience. He always brings the good examples to explain what he tries to say in his class. I wish him the best in his career.
Great class would take again. Very informative and interesting class.
Professor Lentine did an amazing job explaining and detailing his lessons. He is easy to access outside of class and makes the lessons relatable. You have to respect a professor that understands life happens and works with you. I appreciate his compassion and understanding. Thank you Professor Lentine !
required participation and was available for questions or to clarify exact percision of all assignments.
Cool guy knows the streets but also knows the books. Gets straight to the point in his lectures and really cares about his students. Just don't use your phone in class or disrupt and you'll be fine
He's a nice professor, and he does give review sheet 1 week before the exam. The exam is online, but it's NOT easy. You get only 1 hour to do it. He's strict with rules. Don't come late, and dont use ur phone.
Professor Lentine is a very good professor. He is very knowledgable, and cares a lot for his students. He is very lenient when it comes to grading, and he will work with you if you ever had a problem or if you need extra time on something. The only downside is that even though the tests are online they are very difficult.
Professor Lentine is the best professor i have encountered during my time at CSI. His course is comprehensive and a lot of topics are covered, however, the way he imparts the knowledge makes the subject seems easy. I would take him again anytime. 5 stars.
This has to be my favorite class that i took this semester. History is a bad subject of mine, but he kept this class so alive and entertaining. It's really easy to pass, just listen to what he says. Extremely nice and caring guy.
He is by far one of my favorite professors. I hate history but he made it interesting for the class. He is a humble and caring person would definitely take his class again
One of the best professors I had my first semester at college. Makes a Saturday 8am class enjoyable. Very intelligent, he knows exactly what he is talking about. Tests are easy if you pay attention. Post all his lecture slides. Creates assignments that are fun. Always has great stories to tell in class. Makes class feel like we can relate to him.
hes an amazing professor
Literally the best professor everrr in CSI. I took his class on a Saturday morning. Actually this class was the best Saturday class I've ever taken. The class is so easy and the professor is so respectful and understanding. It's so easy to get an A in his class as long as you do the work and make sure you submit it. I for sure recommend him 100%.
Really good professor... i took the class and ended up having to move to online due to covid 19 and he was really understanding and picked it right back up online.
One of the best professors I have ever had. It was easy to learn by how intresting he made his lessons.
Professor Lentine is a good Professor. He is really chill, he makes it known that he cares if you care. However if you dont care that just sounds like a personal problem for you because he will not care. The energy you, Lentine will give it back.
This was my first semester and professor Lentine made it the BEST.!!! I learned a lot from his class because he made it funny and very interesting. Even when it was so early to laugh at all his jokes. I looked forward to going to his class. "I plead the 5th" :) you won't laugh at that if you weren't in his class.
Hes a very good professor I took him my first semester and I would definitely take him again. Hes very energetic I was in his Am class and he really made the class interesting. He is also very flexible with grades. Truly a great professor 10/10.
Prof. Lentine had a difficult assignment when he was thrown into teaching on zoom during the Covid-19 crisis. He excelled at performing for everyone through a webcam and was very personable even though he didn't get a chance to meet anyone in person. Group discussions from varying topics were approached with respect. Great guy and great Prof!
i felt like he was a good professor, very understanding and he makes the class worth taking.
Hes literally the best prof. Im a freshman and this was my first semester and he made everything so easy and understanding. So caring with regards to us being in a pandemic. Accepts all late work without deducting points. The best take him take him!!!
Very kind Professor. Makes thing clear and lays out the whole criteria to you. Because of the online classes its a little work heavy but it makes sense since were online and we cant be in class. Highly recommend him.
He is the best professor for COR 100 for online. He is very lenient with grades. As long as you participate and hand in your assignments before it's due, you will do great. Very easy class.
By far one of my favorite professors, easy class always willing to give extensions when needed and overall willing to help if you need it, even tho the class was asynchronous he still manages to help as much as possible, deserving his 5 stat rating
Professor John Lentine is a great and best history professor in CSI. His quiz and exams aren't difficult as long as you study his review sheet and he curves grade by giving extra credits. I would recommend him to everybody to take his class.
He is an awesome teacher, I had him last semester and he was super understanding when it came to late assignments. It was pretty simple you had a quiz every week that was based on the slides before. Make sure you listen to the lectures because he includes information that is on there. Overall if you had to pick a core 100 teacher pick him!!
He made history interesting for the first time for me.
Had him a few years ago, kicked me out for my phone? i Learned about this site and had to leave my review. Other than that, he is pretty ok.
He is such a great teacher. Although I got lazy towards the end of the semester, I would definitely take him again. Super easy to understand and fun to learn from. Definitely take him!
I took him prepandemic. His class is great and teaches you what you need to know about the US. Hes strict with his rules but If you cant follow them college isnt for you. Hes the most caring and understanding professor Ive had in college. He gets it!
Lentine is the most AMAZING , SPLENDID, FUNNY , FANTASTIC ,AMAZING WORK ETHIC teacher i KNOW. I've had a lot of teachers and he hands down deserves praise. He really gets the lesson through your head which is big for me. He also manages to be funny, genuine, respectful, and clever in the process.
He is the snack that smiles back. This professor is actually amazing, he is respected, very caring, and pays attention to all his students individually. He is the best of the best and I would never pick any other professor over him. He's like my father and I would never betray this man. THANK YOU LENTINE!!
took this class online was asynchronous so we never met. most straight forward teacher i've met. funny and simple teaching methods. his work and class standards are easy to comprehend.
Professor was AMAZING. I definitely recommend taking this professor if you're enrolling in COR100. He's super understand of your life schedule outside of school. He's very respectful and well respected. I loved this class. 10/10
One of the best COR100 professors. He's super understanding and makes the material engaging. His tests are fair, and he's always willing to help. I found unstuck AI very useful for preparing for his quizzes.
Super Understanding on giving extensions and not that much work.
I had professor Lentine for an asynchronous course. Quizzes and discussion boards are due weekly. Discussion boards count for attendance. I had a total of 5 essays, plus one for the final. The word count needed to be at least 250 so it wasn't that bad. He provides the textbook. Great professor and is understanding with extensions.
