Other rating are mean and not true. (One of them couldn't even spell English!)

He rocks!!! Take his class

this is bs

Good.

Cute baby!

O'Neil rocks. hes so awesome, i'm having him again for eng102.this class is so insanly easy and there is like no homework. you write about five short papers, all of which are started and can be finished in class.

Tough grader, but he'll work with you. Even if he says he's taking points off for lateness, he doesnt.

So sad this class is over. I liked our class talks and Mr. O'Neill is great. Would tell my friends to take him.

great guy straight foward personality.. lots of reading but what can you expect? i would take his classes again... easy to get along with

Fantastic teacher...he's so cute that sometimes it was hard to concentrate on the material at hand! He can't be blamed for that.

cool teacher. would take him again if i had to take an english class

one of the best teachers ive ever had

A little boring but VERY easy going, nice guy. Allows you to take your time on the readings and extremely easy grader! Extends due dates if class feels he is unfair.

he is a great teacher. he explains the material well. he also gives lots of time to complete the essays.

The best English teacher I have had so far. He uses movies and the internet a lot in class so it's fun and. Lecture was really interesting too. If your a serious English student take this class!! If you put in the effort he notices and it will show in your grade. Highly Recommended!!

Could have been more detailed on assigned papers.

i took mr. o'neil's classes specifically. i love him as a teacher.theres little to no homework and hes very easy and nice.

Wayy cool teacher!!

He was the best teacher I had

take keith for directed writing of fiction if you wanna be a writer...its the coolest class ever and if you do the wrk youll def pass

good man. will help if you ask.

He was a Great Teacher. Really cares about his Students

Cool guy, he will help if you ask, and he always lets us leave early.

Highly Recommended. since he is an English Lit. Master there was alot of reading on great books (generally postmodern). There are only 4 assignments through the entire semeester which releaves alot of pressure. Very insightful and thought provoking if you participate. This class is great if you want to develop critical thinking skills early.

He is a great teacher. He's very interested in the subject and really cares about what he's doing. Definately take him.

REally good teacher, good discussions and not that much work, other than 4 essays the whole semester no homework

He is an amazing and really cool teacher. He always finds a way to relate to his students on their level. I was surprised though on how much he does care about his students...usually teachers don't care but he really does. He is also great at helping you if you ask him and doesn't make you feel stupid when you don't understand something.

One of the best teachers Ive had. I actually enjoyed going to his calss

He was a cool teacher. Hes really good with getting work in,and gives you some extra time if you need it. Even though some of the reading can be boring, he talkes about it in interesting ways, and makes you see it differently. Over all hes relly nice, and funny. oooo-eee-oo he looks just like Buddy Holly.

Amazing! He is so passionate about what he teaches. His main focus is getting you to look at EVERYTHING critically. Unlike my last *unmentioned* english teacher he even cultivates your writing skills. He is one of the teachers you will never forget @ DCC.

Professor O'Neil is the most passionate teacher I've ever had. His method of teaching is fun and interesting. I got a D as my final grade, but it was completely my fault(I didn't submit the final paper). Take his class. He's the best english teacher I've ever had!

Great teacher. Easy class. Not a whole lot of work but he gets you to think critically.

I loved Mr. O'Neill! He really is a great teacher!

Awesome professor! I hated English and now i don't mind it. I highly recommend him. One of the best professors I've had at DCC.

All around fantastic teacher. He always gives a filtered look at the textbook. I can't believe no one rated him Hot yet.

had him, he's def hott in the smart guy style haha. one of the BEST professors i've EVER had! funny, intelligent, clear...likes to listen to student ideas and angles, open to suggestions. take his class, dutchess doesn't have many teachers as talented as him!

He's a great teacher, he really kept things interesting and that can be hard to do!

Great class. Great teacher.

keith is the man. lax on due dates (midnight the day its due if not whatever) he classes are fun and interesing, no homework, only gives papers, helped me a lot with my writing, let us leave early, fair grader, funny--wen i thinka about being a teacher, i think about being keith oneill

great, great man. He really does keep the class interesting and he is extremely knowledgeable. He gives great tips on writing essays that have really helped me. He keeps the workload pretty light but it does not compromise the quality of the curriculum at all. I highly recommend taking a class with him.

Good teacher...very cute...snobbish..

I took his Eng101 class and Eng209. This guy is an excellent teacher. I highly recommend him for any English class you want or might have to take. He works with you, gives advice. Always willing to help. Very clear with his assignments. Makes class exciting.

Very well rounded individual. Has in depth knowledge on many subject areas that pertain to required readings. Assignments are clear cut and quite manageable.

One of my favorite teachers I've ever had.. very fair grader and amazing teacher. What I liked best about him was he encouraged you to participate but didn't break you down if you were wrong, he tried to spin it like you were right unlike other teachers I've had who will rip you down in front of the class. Very lenient with due dates, very fair, ni

Great teacher. He's a good man! I've never really appreciated literature or the english arts. He made it easy and painless.

a very good teacher, and very helpful, and actually makes it fun

Keith is a great teacher and encouraged great discussions in the class. I highly recommend him as a teacher because he helped me bring out the writer inside myself I didn't even know was there. If you are there and make an effort you'll most likely get a good grade.

He is one of the best teachers at Dutchess! He was so cute, and very inteersting and knows his material! I would take him again in a heart beat!

Very good professor, knows his material very well, an expert in his field. Nice, funny person as well, easy to get along with.

Absolute favorite teacher. I've never learned so much in a single English class before having him for Comp 102. I absolutely adore him.

AWESOME! Made the course fun and interesting! Extreme in the knowledge of his subject!I would take another course with him in a heartbeat!

i took his russian literature course. let me say it is indeed a very demanding course. be prepared to b reading a little bit every single day because if you get behind its very easy to b lost in txt. the books demand a lot of attention and critiquing, but his class is excellent hes a very well spoken teacher. will absolutely never leave you lost.

Dr.O'Neill is a talented teacher and has been the most amazing writing tearcher. He also is great as the head of the Lit MAG. Thank you so much for making me feel like the writer that i always wanted to be. LOVE YAH.......

He sees the best in all his students. Although this class is totally a subjective grade, he uses each student's strength to help them reach a good grade. Your classmates are also great in helping with improvements and positive feedback on your work.

He sees the best in every students work. This is a subjective graded class. He helps find a student's talent and works with them to achieve a good grade. The classmates also help with improvements and positive feedback to bring your raw talents to publishing quality.

Great professor.He is an expert at his field. Makes any dicussion very interesting and enjoyable. He is very understanding and a fair grader.

Loved him as a teacher! I was actually disappointed the semester was over. If you have the chance take his directed writing of fiction class. Best class I've ever taken!

Probably one of the coolest teachers out there! Definitely a good guy, and definitely helped when I needed it.

Best teacher I have ever had!! Makes your appreciate literature, and makes the class interesting!

An amazing prof, doesn't rush through literature and allows you to truly appreciate it. Very easy going especially when it comes to due dates for papers. I would take this class again if i could. This class was enlightening, this prof truly loves what he is teaching and really cares how his students are doing.

Very enthusiastic, good teacher. Some books are more difficult to read, but he spends time making sure you understand them. Very helpful.

I was not looking forward to this class because I hate writing and literature, but he made the class really interesting and I actually enjoyed the class and didn't mind the writing. He answers any questions and if you need help with your papers he offers great suggestions. No actual due dates for papers and doesn't care if you attend.

Took his Russian lit. class & loved it. It is truly such a rewarding class, granted you put the work in. He is really laid back and extremely helpful, but the content is dense and you HAVE to do the reading. He isn't a hard teacher, but the content can be rough. He does work you through it, and makes sure all questions are answered.Take this class!

He is very good. He helped me a lot since I hate writing. He is not an easy grader but is very willing to help you get to the level where you want to be

Keith was essentially my dream professor. He was so understanding, didn't really have a set date for papers. I dreaded this class and he actually made it interesting! So knowledgeable on everything. He took the pressure off for what was a crazy semester for me. He is a hard grader but fair! Put the effort in and you will do well! Excellent teacher!

Such a great professor! Really knows what he is talking about and makes class entertaining and informative. Would take another class with him no doubt. Pay attention, go to class, and do your work and you'll do good! Really great professor!

Dr. O'Neill captures your attention when reading and especially teaching. Not boring at all.

A lot of reading, quizzes on everyday on what you read. The questions were based on things like plot, or who a character was.

Overall, I enjoyed Dr. O'Neill's class. The lectures were not so boring, he incorporated historical context to the stories we read allowing for more clarity. He only assigned two papers and gave a midterm and final so you have little wiggle room with your grade. He's willing to see you in office ours though, so get help with your papers!!

He was such a chill professor! He sat on his desk and told us to call him by his first name. Participation is a big factor in his class so if you don't like to talk, this might not be the class for you. You need to read the book to pass. If you love English and want a teacher that will encourage and challenge you, it's perfect!

Really cares about his students! Highly recommend!!

Great teacher. Class is a little dry but he makes up for it by being a standup guy. He also has no deadlines on his papers.

He is so chill, if you ever get the chance to take one of his classes please do! Hands down one of the best classes I've ever taken

Incredible professor. Full of information, extremely helpful, and creates a friendly classroom atmosphere. (& a silver fox). If possible I will be taking more of his classes.

I love Professor ONeill!! The readings for the class were sometimes boring but he still made sure you understood the history /reason behind the text in a clear entertaining way. Never wanted to miss his class, really such a great man. Hes also very understanding and hilarious. 10/10!!

Great teacher. I learned so much about reading and writing. Was not boring at all (besides hamlet a bit and a couple short stories). Makes the boring stuff interesting though! Highly recommend this professor.

By far the best professor I had at Dutchess. I wish I could continue taking his classes. Straight forward curriculum. Hes understanding with deadlines & problems. Interesting & informative. The fiction course is very rewarding.

Mr. o'neill was one of the best english teachers i have ever had. he is so amazing, his lectures are always so much fun especially for this class. he make things so interesting. There was a lot of reading but once you get past the reading it is so fun to be in class and talk. There was a 5-7 pg paper required on anything we wanted that I LOVED DO!

Best professor at DCC! I took creative writing fiction, and he gives the best feedback. The whole class also offers feedback during the workshop. For someone who loves writing and wanted to improve, this was the best class for me. I recommend taking this class, especially if you love writing.

The short story class was a lot of fun. We would read short stories from Edgar Allan Poe to current work today. He gives us a timeline of everything that happens during each literary period. Tests were easy, no quizzes. Just study. He gives an optional creative writing assignment instead of traditional paper. He talks about Bartleby a lot.

I loved this class. I want to be a writer and this was really helpful. He was very understanding of outside issues. This was during Fall 2020, he was understanding and worked with us to help us get the most out of the course. My only complaint was that my peers barely participated so I didn't get as much feedback from them as i wanted.

EXCELLENT professor for Eng Comp II. Gives weekly readings, sometimes long. Has discussion boards weekly that you need to put thought into but when you do, he counts it. A few papers but a pretty lenient grader. Also hated poetry and things like that but he picked good samples that made me appreciate it more and liked short stories he chose

He is really great. He's passionate about teaching and he teaches very well. He seems to be a tough grader. His class just have 4 essay and 1 final essay. Highly recommend his class.

Hands down one of the best professors I've ever had. Made my semester so much easier. His workshop was fun and a wonderful way to get supportive and very helpful feedback on your work. He wants you to succeed, and it shows. He made the workshop such a supportive and honest environment. Take him if you can. I can't recommend him enough.

Had 2 classes with Keith and he's super cool. He makes the stuff we go over interesting even if it isn't. I messed up and didn't do any of my s*it but he let me make it all up at the end of the semester and I ended up with a B+. Even took his creative writing class and really enjoyed that as well. Highly recommend you take a class with him.

Professor O'Neill is a knowledgeable and fair grader. He breaks down short stories, poems, and Shakespeare, offering useful tips for essays. Participation counts, but he doesn't do random readings or group work. Essays are fairly graded. Overall, he's engaging and encourages critical thinking.

Professor Keith makes the material engaging even when it's dry. Attendance is mandatory but worth it - the lectures are informative and the free textbook is useful. unstuckstudy was a lifesaver for study prep.

I took his Creative Writing: Fiction class. As long as you submit two writing assignments and participate in the discussion boards, you'll do well. I'd definitely recommend this class if you enjoy writing.
