I learned alot about how to write essay, summary, Gramma, and general knowledge. We never behide the lessons. IF YOU REALLY WANT TO LEAN, TAKE HIS CLASS. Thanks

He absolutely knows what he is doing,how to teach a student the subject,and how to treat a student by the student's situation. He may be one of the best ESL professort at SMC.

If your writing paragraph, essay, and summary writing are not well and you are having difficult with writing. I prefer you come to another branch of Santa Monica College is Bundy Campus and that non-credit ESL and practice writing classes from beginning through advance. When your writing getting better then take ESL credit at main campus.

I took his class a few semesters back. He wasn't helpful at all. He tries to look cute but makes too high demands on his students. He couldn't clearly explain why he took away points. Don't recommend his class.

Very Tough Grader. Unless you show your passion for this class, you will get C or D if you are challenging in your English. However, my English skill is indeed improved by him, so I can't say him as a horrible man.

So many papers

Professor Keith is the best ESL professor you can ask for. He actually cares about his students. He's always available for whatever trouble you're going through. I strongly recommend taking his classes. He makes you feel special and able to show your best during tests quizzes or homework. Take him, you won't regret it. Thank me later.

One of the best ESL Teachers. Keith will take on his own time to explain and answer any questions you may have. He will never talk down on you or make you feel stupid. Lots of group work during class. Homework quantity and difficulty are pretty normal. Overall very good class pretty dynamic and no one dropped during the semester. Thank you Keith

Keith is the best teacher I ever had at SMC. If you want to learn English, take his class. I was so sad when the class was over because he was like a friend that cared about each student. His quizzes are not difficult if you study. Essays are not difficult too, but you have to read and understand very well how to write them properly. Thanks Keith!

Great professor, always passionate and exciting. He will help you when you do in-class essay assignments. But what he says always makes me sleepy. He's glad to answer all your questions and help you not only with study stuff.
