This person that calls himself a teacher has ZERO teaching skills. His expectation is that you should already know all he is teaching before you start his class. He will not teach you.

I would not recommend simply because he takes forever to grade papers and so you do not know your grade for months! I took him as an online class and there's generally no feedback from him. Other than that, the assignments are laid out for you from day one, many of them include peer review. His grading is also pretty harsh.

I agree that he takes FOREVER to grade assignments but as far as everything else goes he was a great teacher. very clear on the assignments, very lenient and let us turn in assignments late. gave us useful feedback and was very passionate when teaching. gives a lot of essays but they are simple.

His class was very easy. Honestly if you are giving him bad reviews, you more than likely did not attend his lectures regularly. He tells you EXACTLY what he expects and wants. Easy "A"... pay attention and show up to class...

His class is very easy i'm an A+ student in his class he explains things clearly and and helps you whenever you need it. Make sure you attend the class earlier then the time it starts he likes that. The essays also easy not tough at all. You'll like him and you should take his class you'll be a straight A student just like me. Plus he's a nice guy.

Honestly a terrible teacher. Doesn't really understand the subject he's teaching, which is really sad because it's basic English. Makes obscure video game and tabletop RPG references that nobody understands. The work is not only difficult (as he purposely finds fault in your work) but completely peripheral to what you actually are reading.

Not an easy A, but an annoying one to get. He is never too clear at first, but when you mess up is when he can explain things the best. The best thing about the class is that you can turn in assignments many times, even if late. resubmit assignments as much as you can. I would not recommend him, but if you have to take him, don't stress over it.

Contrary to all the negative comments, Professor Calle's class was the right balance. He's a very helpful teacher who will spend one on one time with you going over your papers and pointing out your errors. He gives countless opportunities to make up failed assignment. Not recommendable but not someone to absolutely avoid. You work for your grade.

he makes you so confused.I would personally not recommend him for any other students.He never helps and never understands student's situations no matter what you do. he would give you like about three essays to finish for the next day. he never grades; he only gives feedback that make you feel like a failure. he grades at the end of the course

While Prof Calle is sometimes every where when teaching, he is funny, very helpful and nice. He will give you great pointers & is very patient w students. Some classmates got confused & I would see him take time after to explain things to them in detail. I got an A- pay attention and do your work to pass! He is passionate about his work & it shows.

Cannot seem to get a point across. If he doesn't agree with your viewpoint on an essay get ready to redo it from the point of view that he believes to be "correct".

Ignore every other comment here. Professor Calle is a GREAT!. He will help you become a better writer. He is VERY helpful and will take time to assist you outside of class. He will not fail your paper. He corrects it and allows you to re-do. No professor does that! No test, no HW, just papers. Took him twice! This is a College, not Middle School!

OMG. This guy is crazy! I feel like he's a bully and does't like anyone's work. Some might mistake it as passionate, I see it as lazy. I say this because he makes you redo all of your assignments, even if other english teachers see it as meeting all criteria. I believe he does this so that he will have enough time to grade papers & discussions.

For ENC 1101, Professor Calle is your man. I took him online for 1101, he is very clear and upfront about what he expects. He is very understanding if you need an extension on an assignment. The class is an easy A, I earned a C because I slacked off a little too much. You will have a breeze with Professor Calle. He gives great feedback.

Professor Calle was one of the best online professors I've had so far. He made himself accessible for questions pertaining to the class. We had two mandatory essays. Although I am not a writer, I truly enjoyed this class and writing the essays because the options provided were interesting. Highly recommended!

took Professor Calle's class online and passed with an A. Lots of reading & understanding poems. He really cares about his students and will do everything he possibly can in order for you to pass. He gives great feedback. There is a research paper involved which will count as Exam. No test just discussions and assignments based on poems. Easy A.

I was so skeptical about taking Prof. Calle's class because of the ratings on here, but he was honestly a 10/10 teacher. We had 6 or 8 short stories w/ one discussion each and 6 or 8 poems w/ one discussion each. Some extra assignments here and there plus 3 papers. No mid term, no final. Lots of assignments but super easy! Love Prof. Calle's class!

Was an ok experience taking ENC1101 online. The professor gives good feedback and helps you plan out your essay, but it is mainly lessons (with a lot to read), and quizzes that are word for word of the lesson (including outside sources that are linked in reading)and like 5 questions, professor takes forever to grade things, lots of my labs lessons

For it being my first online class, Calle made it a pleasant experience. He has a great way of explaining and critiquing, just be attentive with assignments and due dates. Ask for help the moment you need it and he will be forgiving.
