As far as philosophy is concerned, he knows his stuff. He's friendly and funny and helpful. The class is pretty interesting, if you're into philosophical thinking. The tests aren't "easy" but they're not terribly difficult either. If you read the stuff, you should do fine.

Justin Grace teaches in a manner that will somewhat challenge the student to think. I wish more professors would do this! His test are a little difficult but if you do what is assigned and pay attention you should pass the course with no problem. He keeps the course fun and insightful while establishing a real college style learning. GREAT!

he's real cool

This is a subject that I have no interest in, but he made it much more bearable. He's a nice guy & wants you to do well in his class. If you have to take this, take him!

this guy is cool likes to talk on deep topics. he takes philsophy serious you might get lost on some of his terminology he expects that but wants you to ask questions about lectures. Read books, powerpionts to pass. interesting class!!

Justin is great, he knows that 90% of people don't attend TCC with the intent of majoring in philosophy, he makes the topic accessible to students and "user friendly" plus you watch southpark

Great teacher very entertaining. In my class if you study the power point lectures you'll ace the tests. Phil is a deep subject so sometimes one can get lost in the reasonings behind some things but Justin does a great job teaching especially it being an introductory level. Highly recommend. P.S. UFC rocks!!

Great Person, however, he does tend to talk in circles when explaining concepts sometimes. Most of the test questions are on the powerpoint slides, but you still have to read the books for clarity.

Very cool teacher that's willing to help clarify any topic of discussion. Answers to test tend to be in the PowerPoints, which he uploads to Campus Cruiser. Tells you the first day that you can make a C without the textbooks, or make an A-B with the textbooks. Tests aren't easy, but get better as the semester moves along. Very cool guy.

Had him his first semester teaching. Really encourages class participation, which is great in a philosophy class. Easy going, very flexible, but makes sure to teach the material.

Mr. Grace is one cool person. He is open minded and loves when students participate in discussions. That is one way to do well in this class- TALK! He is interested in your opinion. Assignments are not hard- put in the effort and you will do fine. Lots of grade curves. Nearly impossible to fail!

I love this prof! I took the same class that he shows the south park episode and he uses the southpark episode as a metaphor and he gives a heads up about the southpark episode in case you're overly sensitive. Ultimately if you think Prof. Grace doesn't have any ethics you probably don't know what ethics are. HINT: Bible does not equal ethics.

Prof Grace is an excellent teacher. The thing to remember about any philosophy class, is that are no clear answers to life's problems. What it is good for is helping you direct your actions toward goodness or rightness. Write all the papers, participate in discussions, and have an open mind and you will ace the class.

Prof Grace is great teacher. He does tend to speak in circles, but that's because the point of the class is to study all sides of the arguments. Anyone who says he's a bad teacher, didn't take the time to read the chapters and come to class prepared. You can pass this class without the book if you come every time, but you won't get an A.

This teacher is a great guy. He's easy to talk to and very patient. If I had taken Ethics with any one else most likely I would have dropped it. I highly recommend taking this teacher.

UMMMM Hello college students should know how to think and do research for themselves. lol Just a suggestion for those who keep saying things about how he talks in circles and his message is not clear, DUH there is not right or wrong or clear answer its ethics! Theres just concepts for you to know. Nobody can teach you how to have a opinion.

Amazing professor! very helpful and clear! always shows up to class with a positive attitude. out of all my professors he is the only one i went out of my way to rate. deff a top pick

Great teacher who is funny and lectures an interesting class that provokes discussion and debate. He lets you use a notecard with notes on tests so there should be no reason to fail even though the material is a little tough, if you have no experience with philosophy. There are four tests (1 optional), multiple reading quizes, and a film paper.

Ok so I gave a really high rating because he is one of the few good teachers out there.I am usually really critical of teachers but he would be a strech to say hes a ok teacher. I will be taking another Grace class in the fall

Very down to earth and teaches what can be a complicated course very simply and straight-forward. You must do the reading and show up to class and that's how it is in ALL college classes. Philosophy isn't an easy course but he teaches it well and makes it easier to understand than probably a lot of professors do.

Great teacher. Really nice, very easy going. Note cards allowed on tests. There are "group" assignments and quizzes, but all are fairly easy. If you show up, you will pass. Also you will probably learn something.

He does his best to make a confusing subject easier to understand. He is very laidback in his teaching style.

I took his last semester and he is a good teacher. He drops the lowest test grade, quiz grade,and group grade. The lectures are interesting and reading is hard but he is always willing to help you. You can use a note card for all tests and final exam.

Dr. Grace is simply the bomb. I took him for my into philosophy class as well as ethics. Drops lowest a test grade (including final), quizzes are EASY, lectures are fun. I always bought the books, but I know a lot of people that didn't and still did pretty well in the class. Also, boy needs a pepper. You'll fall in love with him. TAKE HIM.

This guy is AMAZING! He has a great sense of humor and truly does love his job. He teaches yet he knows that as adults, we still need to laugh. He is pretty cute (I must admit). The quizzes are easy because they're online and you can use the book. Even if you don't have the book you can look up the reading online. I STRONGLY suggest him.

Great teacher, cute as well. He teaches a very hard subject, and does the best hepossibly can. He is VERY empathetic to students. BUY THE BOOKS & STUDY!!!!

SE-Campus, Ethics: Professor Grace is very helpful and respectful toward students. There is a lot of reading, but most of the material is reviewed in class and he elaborates and makes it very interesting and relevant. Highly recommended. You will need both books...

Every TCC SE student, please do yourself a favor and take Justin Grace. He is an amazing professor that makes this rigor course very simple. He is smarter than he displays; but he makes himself humble in his methods of teaching. This will make you feel comfortable to approach him with any school related questions. He is a gold nugget for TCC!!!

Took Mr Grace for ethics. Enjoyed the class immensely. Books are needed since he covers assigned reading the next class. Drops lowest exam. Did a movie group project over "V for Vendetta", no problems dropping useless group members. Fair and gives great lectures.

I took it online and got an A! He is excellent about responding to emails and is always there to help! The quizzes and tests are straight from the book and word for word, but you do have to be familiar with the text because there are some fill in the blank questions. Read the book and you will get an A! Great teacher, highly recommend this class!

Great Professor He is extremely helpful and understanding when it comes to assignments and understanding the course. You must pay attention to keep up in here, he is a great speaker but he can be hard to follow if you zone out and try to catch back up. Take light notes and participate and you'll be golden.

I took his online class, very easy if you do the work. You do have to read the book, but its interesting. You have a quiz (you get 2 attempts) and DB post to do every 2 weeks (for a 16 week semester). I enjoyed his class, it really makes you think!

Dr. Grace is my favorite professor. He's committed to your success. He's funny and he relates to the class as a whole. He will stop and repeatedly ask if your on the same page as him, if you're not, just tell him... he will take the time to go back over things until you get it. Be prepared to study simply because this is not an easy course.

Great professor! Very nice and approachable. T

I took Mr. Grace for World Religions 1304 and enjoyed his class very much! He is easy going and interesting to listen to. He gives 5 tests, 5 reaction papers, and invited several speakers to our class. EASY A!

He is a great professor. Class is more fun if you participate and he's super nice and laid back.

Online course, Dr. Grace clearly points out in syllabus all assignments and due dates in a timely manner. Just read the book and takes some notes, if you have questions. email him and he will respond usually within 24 hours. I am actually taking another one of his courses because I enjoyed his methods.

Testdiscussion every other week. Discussion board is very easy but the tests on philosophy are not so easy. It is sometimes difficult to decide what somebody means when they are talking about their philosophy.

Professor Grace was very helpful and interesting to listen to. I would suggest getting the book so you can read along with his lectures because his test questions mostly come from the book.

Professor Grace was interesting and helpful. I would suggest getting the textbook so you can read along with his lectures because his test questions come directly from book.

I took professor Grace's online Phil 1304, and it was very easy. He post assignments at least a week or so early. All you have to do is reading your book, take the quiz and complete all discussion boards, and you're done. It's that simple, easy A.

Reading, chapter quizzes, discussion boards. That's it. Difficult topic at times, but easy class. Do the reading and you will be fine.

I absolutely loved Professor Grace and his Intro to Philosophy class! He was very straightforward from the beginning of what to expect, & he genuinely loves what he's doing. Show up to class & PARTICIPATE, participating makes the whole learning environment better, & he's always open to just talking all class if it's good discussion. READ READ READ!

I took this class online (Intro to Ethics). It may have been easier in person. 3 chapters of reading, a discussion board, and a quiz every other week. No papers. The quizzes were hard, IMO. You need to love philosophy and building an argument to enjoy/do well in this class. I'm a 4.0 student. This was my first C.

Great teacher, anyone saying he sucked just wasn't that great with ethics or philosophy. His class and work can be hard yeah but this is college. At least he tries to connect with the students and help them understand the work.

5 wk online; There were 9 chapters to read, 9 open-book quizzes, and 9 discussion boards on each religion. Answers from quizzes come directly from book. (CONS): However, once you've selected an answer on the test you cannot go back and review. Also, professor Grace take a while to grade assignments. ( PRO) But overall, read and get an easy A.

He was one of the best professors I've had! I took this class online. Lots of reading, but the quizzes are word for word from the book! You get two attempts for every quiz. Super easy class

So philosophy for me doesn't come naturally I'm just not a philosophy person. However, with that being said Dr. Grace really tried to help me see the different apsects and as long as you make an effort I don't see why you won't make a good grade. There is a bit of reading which AUDIBLES HELP SO MUCH if you have trouble getting through.

Justin was a lot of fun to have. He is a lot of fun and tries to make the class as carefree as possible. Not a lot of work to do outside of class. Will work around your schedule if you need to take a test at a different time. He shows videos to help and posts the links to them as well. All in all a really nice guy, I'd recommend taking him.

Professor Grace is amazing. The tests can be difficult if you don't go to class because the readings are explained in class. Very interesting. Highly recommend.

Dr. Grace was a really good professor! Very helpful and knowledgeable about Philosophy. He really got me interested in thinking like a philosopher. There's a lot of reading, but that is expected when you study this type of material. He explains everything, so if you don't understand the readings he'll provide insight.

Dr. Grace has your back!! To be specific, the homework assignments were the same every week which was awesome, but depending on the lesson can sometimes be a good amount of reading. Still, if you do the reading and do the work then you will pass! I would take Dr. Grace again in a heartbeat and I would recommend him to anybody. Thank you Dr. Grace!

I love Prof Grace so much he's such a great guy. Neat the end of the semester, I gave him a hug three times due to his niceness. I feel like hugging him in the future anytime.

This professor was awesome. He is very chill and relaxed, and truly wants you to pass. As long as you attend the lectures and read the chapters in the book, you'll pass with flying colors.

Professor Grace was very helpful, understanding, graded things in a timely manner, and responded to emails quickly. Class is easy as long as you stay organized, stay active and participate in discussion boards, and stay on top of your work. Would take again.

Tests were hard but I actually liked the professor and his enthusiasm. Lectures were very boring though. Anyways, I liked this class.

This teacher was very calm and made me love philosophy, tests were hard though.

His tests are more points so you can get extra points and they count towards extra credit, but the class is difficult and his lectures are pretty boring. Textbook is a MUST in this class.

Easy class if you do the work. Read the chapter and watch videos from internet. Notes are a slide presentation. If you don't do well it's because you didn't do the work.

This class is very easy. The textbook is not required but I highly recommend it. Extra credit is worked into the tests. Other assignments are minimal and very simple.

Amazing professor. Very good at answering questions. You can do well in the class if you just read the textbook.

Awesome guy. He's very funny and will try to help you as much as you need. The philosophy-1301 class itself was very interesting while being extremely easy. If I could I would definitely take this class again.

Pretty cool professor. Liked his lectures enough to want to show up to class everyday. Only gripe is that the tests are a little tricky. You will learn a lot in this class as long as you pay attention.

Mr. Grace is cool and makes philosophy very digestible and easy to understand. Just do not miss class, the lectures aren't easy to understand without his input or notes. It's also a points-based class, so it's easier to pass tbh. He also doesn't provide any makeup work and the assignments are only provided in class. The best Philo teacher.

He's a really good professor and he really likes to relate to his students. He's also really funny and he gives you extra credit opportunities as well. The topics he taught about were very interesting.

Great guy! Allows note for test and no homework. Pretty easy and interactive class. Attendance is mandatory he has in-class worksheets which you cant make up.

This course included a lot of reading and writing. It was pretty easy to get an A. Just turn in the assignments on time, use correct citations, and keep up with the material assigned to each lesson.

The type of professor that understands electives are not meant to be stressful but still focuses on teaching you valuable things you will think about forever. Easy point based grade, don't miss class, take good notes and you'll do great.

Honestly, the class was pretty easy even if you don't pay attention to everything he talks about. The quizzes weren't hard if you studied a little, and he is a very friendly teacher.
