A great professor and cool person. Professors like this come by very rarely, so take him when you have the chance. We had a lot a class discussions and he knows his subject.
Well this guy knows how to *kiss** the time, he has a sense of humor, always lead you to think. strong recommond for who wants to write better.

Very cool teacher and him being cute is a plus!! Ladies, pay attention.... He's funny and garunteed you will come out of that class a better writer.
YOU SUCK!!!
this professor is very interesting person. in his class you will hear a lot of stories and jokes, so it wont even feel like you're in class. I wish I could have him for all of my classes. Take him, but the most important thing in his class is to take GOOD NOTES, because his tests are from notes. write his every word down.

Really cool professor and he is fine which is a ++. Alot of work and come to class early, very helpful if you need help and a very funny person. The realist professor I've met so far. Take him he is wonderful.
You will really learn how to read! Lots of reading,not as much writing. Very good pointers about life. Pay attention he is very wise, and class time is very enjoyable.
The best teacher ever!! There no boring class , everyday it is fun and professional. I learn how to write, read and use of pun. He is clear and precise!!If you don't like writing essay before for sure you will like in this class. Did I say fun guy already? If I met him someplace else , I would have assumed Standup comedian!!
the best teacher i have had my whole educational career. actually taught composition, form and grammer. forced us to write almost everynight to incorperate the class work. time comsuming class but well worth it if you actually want to learn. he gloats about how many people he fails so do not expect an A.
This ia an excellent prof. I tooke him in the summer for eg200 and boy I looked forward to going to class. He made the class very interested and this guy is for real no **** and realistic. More of his type is needed in this school because he teaches for life.
He is definitely the best teacher I've had in my life. I've totally improved my essays so much that I don't even KNOW how I passed other classes because I wasn't writing properly. His class is so fun and you will never be bored of him. Plus he is really really good-looking.
Prof. Williams teaches with integrity and respect toward his students--a quality that NOT every City Tech professor possesses. He could be difficult only if the student exudes attitude. On the overall, he is worth the time and money.
excellent professor, you learn with him, if i could i would take another class with him
Professor Williams is great, but be prepared for a lot of work. He is funny and the lectures are sooo interesting. I learned a lot but like I said be prepare for a lot of essays.
I recommend his class highly, if you want to improve your writing skills, and he is funny that I never got bored of taking his class. Highly recommended professor!!!
One of the best teachers I have ever had. This man actually TEACHES the students not only how to write properly, but throws a few interesting things out there for you to think about. He does demand that you do the work, but he's extremely fair to the point where some may even consider it babying. Incredibly entertaining also, never a dull moment.
He is one of the best professors I've had. He's hot, smart, and funny. He's perfect. !!! Take him guys, you'll love him.
He is a great Professor, you'll love his class. He teaches you to think outside the box, and think about life in general. But you must do the work he gives you!
great professor, I actually learned things I didn't know before.
he is an amazing professor. you learn a lot in his class, and he explains things extremely easy
oh man, i had a crush on him since the first week of going to his class. HE IS NOT EASY AND YOU WOULD WORK UR BUTT OFF. but he teaches you like no other professors would! you would learn a lottt in his class. and you would never miss his class cuz hes extremely hot & funny. not easy to get A tho.
WHAT A HOTTIE!! I totally have a crush one him! He actually teaches things you need to learn about english and life. Great professor, highly recommended.
He is very intelligent and he teaches gracefully !!
Professor Williams is GREAT and really HOI:) He does give a lot of work so don't expect an easy A.He clarifies everything and makes sure that you know the basics in grammar before you hand in anything.He allows you to do over assignments also.He extremely funny and will keep your attention but he doesn't tolerate attitudes.
The best proffessor I ever had in this college.
Professor Williams is by far the best college professor I have had. He gives heavy work, but he reviews and gives good feedback. His humor adds extra interest. Highly recommended class if you are willing to put in some work and have some laughs in the process.
Great Professor. You will learn and enjoy his class.
One of the gems in the Humanities at NYCCT
BEST PROFESSOR IN THIS SCHOOL, HANDS DOWN.
Torture! I learned some stuff I wanted to learn in the past from him but he made my weekends nightmare!
His class was interesting. I was entertained. His essays are ok. You have to actually think, but he helped me how to write an organized essay. Fair grader.
He is a nice professor. I like him but I don't like school.
His essays get harder and longer as the semester goes on. he is funny and always keep me up during class.
He is really funny but be prepared to write write and write! Never miss a class because you will miss an assignment.. he is a good teacher but his papers require a lot of little things and after a while it gets annoying. Don't take this class if you don't like writing long papers using references from your literature book (which you must get)
The best professor I've ever taken my entire life. He is full of inspiration. You'll learn so much about life. He is cool with students. He is very friendly and helpful. I can't really say much bcaz i don't have the right words to say about him. Take him! p.s. He is Hilarious. no cellphones allowed not even for time. i never had to look at time!
He's okay. I had him for summer so all that work he makes students do is crammed into a month. expects more work as semester goes by. (specifically each paper extends by 1 paragraph) teaches really well though from the root. i liked him.
Absolutely best English professor! This guy will challenge you mentally every-time you step inside his class. His one of those people who were born to teach. Some may think that he gives a lot of work but if you are into it and stay engaged he makes it all very interesting and worth your time. Ivy League level teacher in our school!
His feedbacks on your paper were general,and his critique was applied to the entire class I was unsure if I had improved with each draft because only the final draft was return Prior drafts were not seen by students or feedbacks given
He is the best professor I have taken so far at city tech. I'm still in his class and I've never reviewed a professor before, but I felt I should leave 1. He really teaches you how to write well and really makes you think about different topics. He is HILARIOUS and makes class fly by. I have never felt bored in class cause he's great!
His essay challenges you to think and to do you best and it does help you write long essays. He makes the class interesting and classes fly by fast. I recommend you to take his class, bit challenging but it is worth it.
If you want to get A do not take him!!! He is funny and nice, but he never gives A on essay, and it is not possible to get A grade for this class. Do not take him if you care about your GPA.
He is a GREAT professor. I LOVED coming to his class and was sad when it ended. He is VERY funny. He really engages the class in the discussions and his interest is making you pass. Be prepared to READ A LOT and WRITE A LOT. Make sure to take REALLY good notes. He will test you on the things he talks about - LITERALLY. HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!
Very funny. In his class, you will learn things that will last for the rest of your life. Easy. You have to take notes. Exams are based on what he says in class. write down everything he says in class and you will pass FOR SURE.
Excellent professor, to the point type of teaching style. Extremely helpful and wants all his students to pass. His teachings will stay in your thoughts even after you finish the semester. My only advice is to be ready to copy EVERYTHING he says. Do that and you will ace the test.
This professor is by far the BEST professor I have even had! I took him for English Lit and thought that it would be torture, but it was amazing! He is an awesome teacher and really cares about his students. He truly knows his stuff. I looked forward to going to class. Take his class! You won't regret it! You're welcome! :)
Great Professor with a passion and big talent for teaching! He is very organized and his explanations are clear. You will never be bored in his class, because he makes you pay attention. He teaches by using a lot of examples to make key concepts simple. Do not expect cheap grades. Highly recommended for students who truly want to learn.
Very interesting lectures, I never got bored. He will make you laugh, but stay on track. Take GOOD notes, exchange them with your classmates, also do your homework because his tests will be DIRECTLY from his notes and home assignments. I think its's very possible to get an A if you take his class seriously. I would take this professor again.
Not that hard to get an A, do homework, attend class, participate, take good notes. Even if you don't do very well on the tests, you will pass this class with a good grade, if he sees you trying to do your best. He gives you extra credit questions on the test. He explains assignments thoroughly and answers emails almost instantly.
we have all had teacher that change the way we think about a subject, our lives or just the idea of how much impact a teach can have on you. If you haven't I'd suggest "cocoa butter" (ask him about this story lol). He was great kept interest, was interesting, had the most relevant and intriguing insight, mixing real life with subject topics.
Great guy!! He don't play, he will teach you writing skills that you can use anywhere. He used the basic of writing to make your essay into a masterpiece. Take him!
Very technical. If you want to improve in your English writing, I encourage everyone to take his class. He is not like some other professors who would only hear out specific students.
Best professor ever! Inspirational lectures that really make you think and ask questions about things that matter. Every class flew by easily, he is fun and knows how to touch upon difficult subjects making them easy digestible with videos and movies shown in class.
he was a great professor overall :)
Doctor Williams is the best professor I've had in the three semester I spent in the useless hellhole of a school called CityTech. He was attentive and captivated our attention, my pal was having issues with her paper and he was kind enough to extend the deadline for her. He certainly doesn't have any time or patience if you're constantly annoying.
He has high standards and expects the best from his students. He puts in the work and expects you too also. I like him a lot. You can tell he really cares about his work and about the students.
This prof was awesome. Took him for a film & literature course, and it was never a boring class. He keeps you engaged and is funny as hell. Read some great literature that tied in with the films we watched. Spent whole classes watching an episode of Sherlock and watching the Warriors. Hefty paper at the end, but take this course if you can.
Amazing Professor Overall !
This class was amazing. The professor is hilarious. Take notes throughout the entire period because you will need them for the exams. The exams were not easy so make sure you put in effort to study. I learned a lot from this class. There is a long and difficult paper due in the end that will incorporate everything we learned so pay attention.
Professor Williams was a great professor. I learned so much and enjoyed every class. This class is a writing intensive class so be ready to write. It is a bearable work load though. Also he is very nice to look at so the classes went by fast for me!!
I just came back to leave another comment. I took P. Williams' class about four years ago. He was, without any doubt, the best professor who I have sat in class with. He was hilarious but also very introspective and caring about the students learning. Tips: Be active in class. You can get a head-start and feedback on your HM by volunteering.
He is okay but you still have to work hard
This professor is excellent. He keeps you entertained and keeps your attention with very interesting readings. Always looked forward to class and discussing the readings. Do the readings, pass your tests based on the reading and research paper you are guaranteed to pass.
Quizzes and final are short answer that are based on lectures. There is an 8 page research paper that all the lectures and short hw assignments lead up to. Make a friend just in case you miss classes , each class is fun an informative. NO EATING no kidding this is a rule!
Dr. Williams is an amazing professor! You do have to do a lot of reading to keep up with the class especially in the summer. His exams are not hard if you take extensive notes. He also gives extra credit on exams! Make a friend if you know you're going to miss class because EVERYTHING he says is important!
WOW, I wish all of my professors were like him. If you ever have an opportunity to take this class, PLEASE DO SO. Took him for a summer course, and while he is a tough grader, he is a very nice and understanding professor and had some great lectures. Highly recommend!
WIlliams is excellent professor at City Tech. he made class fun. awesome guy, & be ready for reading books. this was a writing class which means you had to write a
I took Professor William's class over the summer and wow was it intense. I learned so much and it was by far the most interesting class I've taken so far. The class covers very sensitive topics and it's very writing intensive. Analyzing many films and readings. You have to study hard and it is a difficult class but I recommend taking it.
So smart. Knows his subject. Clear. One of the best.
Easy and interesting class. A few short response papers. Study notes and review for exams. He's a clear grader and participation matters. Complete the work on time, there's no second chance.
He's probably a good professor but his exams don't make any sense. Exam questions lack context, and you usually have no idea which reading material, book or movie he's talking about. He's also gives out a lot of discussions and response papers to write to be prepared to write a lot.
Doctor Williams is clearly very savvy, passionate, and eager to show and learn more about the subject of our class. But he gives lots of work in an attempt to cram 15 weeks of work into 5. He's also very strict on deadlines. Take this class only if you don't work or aren't busy in the summer!
I took this professor this summer and let me just say he is HORRIBLE. Summer course should not be going in depth this much with all the material such as quizzed, exams, 2 discussion boards all in one week. Exams are 50 % of your grade.. . Nothing is ever good enough for him. Do not take him and choose another elective because you will regret it.
I'm one of the students enrolled for this summer course. In terms of work that was given within the five-week period was extremely strict. Late assignments are not acceptable. There will be readings, films, and discussion posts that you will do non-stop weekly. There's not enough time to finish them with the deadline being 11:00pm. DON'T TAKE THIS!
Only take this class when you really want to learn about true human-society-class problems. He warns you before it begins. Challenging but opens something I never really see before. No Grit? Then, do not take it, Grade and instruction 're very clear, makes you no sleep but to think of what is worth to think and write about in 5 weeks. keep trying!
Dr Williams is certainly passionate about the class he teaches, but if you are just looking to pass which I get, then I don't recommend taking this class because it's loaded of work and you have to really dive into reading and understanding.
