Very fair. Listen well, and make sure to read guide lines correctly. Can be nit-picky with format (he is very specific) on homework, but as long as you go to class, participate, do your homework and read the book you should do well. Very glad I took this course. Changed my perception Anthropology :)

Awesome class! Extremely interesting & made class so fun. You do have show up bc of in-class assign worth a lot of points, theres HW every week(very easy) anda 4 page paper(easy and willing to help always) Take this class with prof. kellen he is not only an amazing teacher, he is also extremely handsome which makes the class even that much better!!

Great teacher and is willing to help when you need it! Attendance is mandatory to help make the class easier. Very easy to pass this class. Just read the textbook to prepare for quizzes and exams and attend lecture to clear up any confusion. Overall do your work and you'll pass with an A.

its very easy to pay attention when your teacher is not only extremely handsome but is intelligent as well. He is very clear when he speaks and you will be able to understand. He does a lot of in class activities which really pay off. YOU MUST PAY ATTENTION because the tests are No joke.

Great teacher clearly breaks down everything you WILL NEVER leave class confused ALWAYS emails you back. Notes are his power points. study guide for EVERY exam. I took anthro 1 and 2 and passed. Be an adult get interested and you'll be ok.

he is the best teacher for clarity and easiness, also He is a great professor to have. This is my second class with him and he makes learning fun and I enjoyed to be in his class

This was a very interesting class. The textbook was very expensive , but it was really needed to pass the online quizzes. If you do the study guides you will do good the exams. Overall a good vibe in the classroom.

This class is very straight forward. Taking good notes and paying attention to the films will be extremely helpful for the tests. The book is needed for the online quizzes. And the ETC sessions that is offered is helpful! Overall, this class is interesting and easy if you take the time to know the material.

Great teacher! He seems to love his work and it shows. His lessons are fun, interesting, and interactive; engaging the student visually as well as intellectually. Teachers can make or break a class or subject for some students but Mr. Prandini is one of those teachers that will make you consider switching majors to Anthropology. A+!

Kellen Prandini is a great professor and I recommend him to every college student.

Very fun class. Mr, Prandini keeps it interesting and likes what he teaches. He is always helpful and makes sure you have everything you need to pass the class. He gives you a good amount of time to do assignments and essays. There is no reason not to pass this class. I had a great time

He's a really great teacher, it was easy to go to class and understand what was going on. He applies what we are learning to real life.

Mr. P is a great professor! He is very intelligent and knows what he is talking about. He makes learning fun! You can see his passion for teaching and helping his students. This is what I call a high quality education! Thanks Mr.P:) ~ p.s soooo handsome!!!

Awesome teacher who not only knows a lot about the subject, but cares about the performance of his students. Tries to make the lectures and in class activities interesting and helpful. Overall, you can't ask for a better instructor. And he's so cute!

After taking Cultural (anthro2) and Biological (anthro1) Anthropology with Mr. Prandini, I am now granted with new lens to view and experience the world we are in. He is, without a doubt, one of the best professors on campus due to his passion and commitment for Anthro. I highly recommend Mr. Prandini, just to say the least.

Mr. Prandini is a truly gifted teacher. The course is well planned, organized, fun, and he executes it to perfection. How he makes the complex information easily understandable to normal people is remarkable. I've been at FCC for 3 years, he's easily a top 3 professor.

I highly recommend Professor Prandini, he has definitely opened many perspectives that I would have never considered to be important. His lectures are interesting and does a great job engaging with students through activities. I received an A by reading over my notes and the chapters, as long as you keep up with the notes you will do fine.

This course was extremely interesting, I have been considering majoring in this subject for a while now. After taking Prandini's class my interest has increased. Mr. Prandini is approachable and very helpful I highly encourage you to take his class.

great teacher gets straight to the point helpful answers questions

Professor Prandini is an amazing teacher. His lectures are clear and to the point. The group activities help in many ways! You can tell he has passion for this subject, and he really wants his students to understand the criteria. Hand down, the best professor I've ever had. AND yes hotness, he deserves an A+ !

I've taken Anthro2 in the past with Prandini & decided to take him again for Anthro1. He's such a fantastic instructor. I truly wish that he can teach in every single class that I am in. If you want an instructor who is easy, lectures straight to the point, considerate, & caring, make the right choice & take Kellen Prandini's anthro classes!

Likes his job and it shows you have to show up because in class points but easy class you need the book but you can torrent it and he reminds people they can torrent it. He is helpful . One small paper 3 pages graded on content not spelling . It's easy

He's a great teacher! I love that we do notes, but also shows videos related to what we are learning! And love those partner sharing activities, makes you feel more comfortable & you listen to others feedback!

Not an easy class, If you want to pass reading the book is a must. He is pretty cool, always willing to answer any questions you may have.

Okay he is a really hot teacher that's a bonus. You have to read and KNOW the vocabulary in order to pass the class and the answers on the test is in the notes he gives us. Antro may not be everyone interest but if you wanna pass this class make it your interest for just the semester. Know and read vocabulary and go to torturing it is helpful!

Loved this class! Only 3 tests all semesters. Expect short quizzes (super easy and open book) and group activities every class (not as bad as it sounds). He makes the class easy to navigate through and the activities help clarify everything. And he's good looking in a scruffy nerdy professor way!

I really enjoyed his class. He incorporates a lot of movie clips which keeps his lectures interesting. He sticks to his syllabus and is very organized. Expect to participate in group and class discussions. I also agree that he is very easy on the eyes.

Great instructor. He tells you how to pass the class. Just do all your work and you'll easily pass the class.

This class is awesome you take notes in class there clear he is straightforward he has study guides for every chapter that will be on the test you can get it from class notes I def recommend reading the chapters its a easy short chapters easy class you do have to be in class for notes..

Really great course ! just make sure you attend class

He mad the material very interesting and was always available to answer questions. He does a lot of in class and group activities so you get to work with everyone in the class which is cool. He incorporates notes with video clips to get a diverse learning experience. Overall a great teacher and great class.

I usually don't rate professors, but he deserves it. I took him 2 years ago. He was incredible! I aced every test and missed barely any quizzes! At the end of the semester I was above 100% in the class. He's passionate about what he teaches. If your lucky enough to get in his class, definitely take it! He'll make you cherish college.

SUPERRRRR GOODDD!!!! very passionate and easy class!!! show up everyday and read your notes!!! very helpful

Amazing teacher makes class fun with videos and in class assignments. Listens to feedback you give him regarding the class. Prepares you well for the tests, not that much HW just online quizzes you have to do once a week (7 questions). Attendance mandatory however. I wouldn't hesitate picking him as your teacher.

I would gladly take this course again. It's so great to see a professor so interested and invested in the subject material!

YAAAAS b take this class.i love kellen. hes such a wholesome person. he makes the subject super interesting. reading and attendance is a must though but he genuinely cares about the students. i rate 8/8 mate.

He was a lot of fun to learn a subject like anthro something I knew nothing about. Very charismatic , young energetic guy meticulous. Everyone knew what was expected. Plenty of opportunities to dig yourself outta trouble if you missed online quizzes or in class assignment points. Very understanding. Genuinely nice person.

This class was very interesting. Before I took it I didn't even know what anthropology was. The professor was ever knowledgeable and helpful. It was a class I enjoyed.

If you apply yourself you can get an easy A, but you have to do the work and study. Excellent teacher.

He really made me understand the subject which I have always had problems getting in the past. His enthusiasm really shows through the way he presents lecture, there's enough interaction and conversation so that it's stimulating to learn, but relieving enough to not feel like you have to explode. Really just a fantastic professor overall!!

Great teacher! I highly recommend him

Great teacher. Lots of discussions in class. Shows lots of cool films. Offers learning units on Canvas which help a lot with notes. Great guy, great teacher.

Mr. Prandini is always looking for ways to improve his class. He will ask the students what he needs to work on and make adjustments. He gives you PowerPoint notes, fun videos to watch/questions at the end, and you need to read for quizzes every Sunday. Overall you can easily receive a lot of points by attending everyday because of class work.

Professor Prandini is a good teacher in that he remains a man of his word. He grades fairly, and he gives you access to the materials needed to pass the course. It is up to you whether or not you pass, and if you don't, then that's a "you" problem :/

Professor Prandini is GREAT!! He grades fairly, and gives access to the materials needed to pass the course. Easy to get "A" in his class, participation is fun, and it helps to retain info for his exams. Quizzes are 7 questions and related to the material discussed in the chapter. NO pop quizzes. His syllabus is clear.

He is a very nice professor, and the classroom atmosphere is active. The course is not difficult. As long as you can listen in class carefully, and review the key content at home, you will get a nice grade, and you do not need speed too much time on it.

Mr. Prandini is a great professor! He makes lectures interesting by incorporating different activities each class . Overchel all If you show up and do the work you will be successful in his class.

Mr. Prandini is by far the best Professor I have had here at Fresno City College. His lectures are fairly long but he is so passionate about his work so class is very interesting. He definitely knows what he is talking about and has great experience in the subject. Ask him about his personal study among the Maasai people :) This guy is a genius!

He is such a good instructor. You don't need the book. Go to class, copy his notes, study from them, and you will do fine! He does group work sometimes. We do in class activities every day. They are super easy. I would take him again.

Great teacher! There is a lot of detail in this subject, but Mr. Prandini uses aids and in-class assignments that help re-in force what is being taught. I would definetly take one of his classes again!

I think Kellin Prandini is an excellent professor. I have taken him for two classes and a lab class and with each class, he explains exactly what you should expect. His policies are fair, his powerpoints are ON POINT, and he does a great job at teaching anthropology. I had other anthro professors on campus, they're okay, but Kellin really shines.

Anthropology is definitely a dry topic, but Prandini makes it accessible and explains the important stuff. His energy is contagious, and he puts his students first. If you need help, he'll go the extra mile to make sure you understand. Approaches topics with clarity, humor, and understanding.

This class is super easy due to Kellen. He explain his materials clearly and makes it easy to understand. Study the powerpoint notes and you'll have no problem passing his exams.

Provides most of the information needed during lecture. The book is needed only for his online quizzes. He incorporates videos and models into this lectures. His passion for Anthropology shows & gives a positive atmosphere for the class. There is an in-class activity every session, but they are not difficult. No negative critiques; great teacher.

Very knowledgeable and makes the course material accessible. The class thrives on discussions and in-class participation, there are also a few in-class group projects so get ready to meet new people. The tests aren't difficult, there's a 7-question quiz every week, and in-class notes on videos add up. Be on time and participate, you'll pass.

Mr. Prandini loves anthropology and he definitely shows it! He is very very caring and is open to any questions! He has experience with anthropology and he wants to make sure it is a fun class for all of you :) definitely take him!!! His study guides are an answer key to an A in the class, don't fall behind!

I'm taking cultural anthropology from him. This is the class that reminds you why you're going to college. It is one of the most beneficial classes I've ever taken & he is just a genuinely amazing person. I could say so many good things about this course & instructor. It makes me want to change to an antho major.....

Not an easy class for me, but he breaks it down to simple terms and there are no stupid questions. Attendance is important there are activities in almost each class session, easy points so you need to be there. Book is needed for online quizzes. Only 3 tests and the last test is the final, they are not easy so use the learning units to study.

Not an easy class but Prandini makes it as simple as possible. He is patient, funny, caring and knows his stuff. There are many in class assignments so be there, no makeups. His powerpoints are straightforward. Use notes and the learning units to study for the test. 3 tests the last one is the final, not cumulative. Booked for online quizzes

A real gem, Amazing professor. Is extremely clear as to what's expected. If you show up to class you should have absolutely no trouble getting an A. The bare minimum is required of you, the lectures are interesting and insightful. The in class assignments are basically free points. The online quizzes are similar. 3 exams during the semester.

Mr P is a very good instructor. He is patient with his students and wants everyone to learn as best as they can. Take him and you'll be glad u did.

He is a great professor. The class is attendance (free points), online quizzes (free points), and tests. He has a review day before the tests and his lectures are interesting.

I can't say enough about how amazing Prandini is. He is down to earth & extremely knowledgeable. He really cares about his students & is passionate about Anthro. Grading is straight forward - 3 exams, 1 final, weekly online quizzes, & daily class credit. His lectures are amazing - I hated when I had to miss class. Thank you, Prandini!

One of the coolest laid-back teachers I've ever had. Really tries to get to know you and outlines the chapters very easily. He also relies on your feedback to make the class better for everyone. Really enjoyed the subject and he is passionate about what he does. Don't miss a class every class gives you points everyday.

He is an amazing professor! He is really down to earth and easy to talk to. The material is really easy to understand; he breaks down information if you dont understand it. Overall I really recommend taking his class.

Grades are based on in-class assignments, take-home quizzes, and tests. In-class assignments are easy. If you're there and participate, you get the points. Quizzes are simple and you can re-take them for a better grade. Tests are straight out of the lecture. Lectures are super organized and straightforward. He's willing to help if you miss class.

One of the best teachers I have ever had at FCC. Kind, smart, helpful, Prandini makes the class enjoyable. His lectures are interesting and easy to follow. I wholeheartedly encourage you to take his classes, you will not regret.

Absolutley amazing teacher!! He truly loves what he does and it makes the class that much better. If you know everything on the studyguides you will get an A on the test. There is a Quiz on evey chapter but they are evry simple. If you miss class you will not pass!!! Show up and participate A

This Instructor is honestly one of my favorites. He takes into consideration that everyone has different ways of learning so he doesn't just stick to powerpoints. He actually makes his class interesting and will help you if you ever need it. You have a lot of chances to get points so don't miss!

Great professor. Lectures are never boring and the videos are great. He is a really good instructor and I looked forward to every class. There are only three tests and all quizzes are open book.

Excellent professor. Everyday is extra credit, so don't miss any days. Test are super easy they are based upon the learning units and notes EXACTLY. Also, Kellen does review before the exams, he tells you what is going to be on the exam.

Professor Prandini really cares about you and your grades. All you have to do is show up to class and do your class work. We never had a quiz. During finals, you have an open book portion and closed book. The open book lecture he prepares you for it. You have to put in the effort to study a little and do your work correctly and you will pass!!

One of the best Anthrol teachers at FCC. I'm not even an Anthrol major and I really enjoyed his class. He makes it fun and clear on what he wants from his students. His teaching style is very east to follow. Online quiz are easy as well; it's open book and you get three tries and get to keep the highest score.

He is very laidback and very very veeeerrry easy to work with. All you have to prep for tests is review your notes and even if you dont prep you should do fine, his tests are easy. His quizzes on canvas are also very easy; you get three tries and he keeps the highest one. I would honestly take any class he teaches. Hes also good at rapping.

Prandini is honestly one of the best teachers I have ever taken at Fresno City. His class is honestly not difficult. All you need to do is take down the notes, do the in class assignments and you will be fine for the tests. I highly recommend him.

I hate anthropology but hes probably the best teacher to take it with. Hes super nice and goes over the material. Its just a lot of memorization since there is only 3 tests the whole time.

He is such a good teacher I will miss this class. Just show up to class and do your quizzes online and you will pass.

Kellen I a wonderful professor. Prepared, straight to the point, and knows what his subject matter very well. He is also caring about his students success and ready to help. He is an exemplary professor. Anthropology is straight memorization but he makes everything interesting! He is one of the best professors in FCC!

Kellen is a wonderful professor. Prepared, straight to the point, and knows what his subject matter very well. He is also caring about his students success and ready to help. He is an exemplary professor. Anthropology is straight memorization but he makes everything interesting! He is one of the best professors in FCC!

He is such a nice guy really, super laid back and easy to talk to. Manages to bring the whole class together to discuss a film or topic were reading about. A great professor and I highly suggest him if youre looking for an Anthropology class.

He a great teacher, you will never go wrong if you choose him. He is caring and fast grading ,you will not have to wait to much to know your grades. He is clear with his instructions and gives extra credit opportunities. Makes class interesting and funny.

Right off the back, he gives chill vibes. He is attitude is very calming and the lectures are very interesting. You have to do In-Class assignments every class. They aren't worth a lot but they are super easy and even if you don't know what you're doing he gives you full points for doing the assignment. Only time you don't get points is if you miss

Kellen Prandini really changes lives. He completely re-routed my school and I changed my major to anthropology because of him. Not only is he a wonderful person, he's so helpful and one of the best teachers I've ever had in my life. He will give you resources and help you achieve goals, and really makes you feel heard and appreciated as a student.

He shows nice videos that help you understand the lectures more. It's very hard to fail his class.

Amazing professor!! He will drop 2 assignments in homework, quizzes, and in class assignments.

Professor Prandini made a rather tough material class interesting and fun. He is approachable and makes sure everyone is on track. There's many review days and the homework is quite accessible/ convenient that its online. Overall, my favorite class of the semester.

One of the best classes I have had. 10/10 would recomend

NO TERM PAPER!!!! he does reading responses that add up for it instead. He genuinely cares about his students and want everyone to pass, but you have to do the work its not hard and it doesn't take long. In class is where you watch/read about things that relate to the chapter and as a class go over the questions he asks you. I HIGHLY SUGGEST HIM!!

Great professor very caring of his students always wants the best for them. attendance is mandatory but you can miss 2 days and not lose points according to syllabus. Lectures are great usually very funny and informative all in all i very well enjoyed this class and kellen is a great person best anthro teacher in FCC.

Such a caring professor, he really does care about his students and their success. He gives great presentations and study guides so it's up to you to put the effort forward. Easy A class so don't mess it up.

As long as you do the work, you will pass! Enjoyed his anthropology 1 class!

Professor Prandini provides a lot of visual examples in his lectures, as well as videos which helps keep them interesting! If you pay attention to the notes he gives you, the tests/quizzes are super easy. He's also super clear about his grading. I've taken cultural anthropology and bio anthropology with Prandini and enjoyed both courses.

He was a great teacher over all and the class was self explanatory. You can get ahead with the hw assignments early and not have to worry about them when they are due at the end of the week. Don't get too comfy and make sure you do all the reading responses and quizzes they are very easy with unlimited attempts! You should pass with a good grade.

If you like the same thing every week, take this class. A 150-300 word response about the chapter you read that week and a quiz. All quiz answers are in the info from the modules he provides. We did like 4 projects, just follow the criteria and it's an easy A from there. Did it online so no mandatory class, but you can still go (taught by TA).

Quizzes are open note and open book. Honestly I am am baffled how someone can fail this class. Professor Prandini is incredibly passionate about anthropology and gives clear instructions for the week. He provides an online textbook at no cost but you are required to read about 20 - 30 pages a week. His modules cover everything on the quiz.

Weekly discussion board and a few activity "projects". FREE TEXTBOOK. As long as you meet the word count and take notes on your OPEN NOTE TESTS, you should have no issue getting an A. Had a few life issues as well during the semester and he was super compassionate and understanding.

Seriously one of the coolest and nicest professors I've ever had. You have to actually try to fail his class because he makes work and criteria for passing so available for you. He works hard to make sure you are doing okay and is always extending time for passed due assignments. Awesome teacher, awesome guy. 100% recommend his courses.

Professor Prandini is amazing! Very kind and approachable, and makes the material and assignments accessible to students - both online and in person. 100% would recommend

Hes a very caring teacher, and very passionate about ethnographic films. Weekly movie in class to discuss along with weekly homework, movie & reading assignments. Small breaks in the 3 hour class. Very chill instructor, understanding & wants to work with you so you succeed. Projects are fairly easy going as well & you have a lot of creative power

AWESOME! He makes this class easy for you! You can't fail. He is always available (I talked to him outside of office hours) He wants to see you succeed and his lectures are super fun. He brings in replica of bones for you to understand how big things were back then. He goes above and beyond for his students. No textbook required!

really easy, reviews are just the test questions and you can retake the quizzes which are online and open note. in class activities are 5 points each class but by the end of the semester you can skip a few and still keep an A if you do the rest of the work.

Easy class. However, exams can be hard because he does not allow notes. Not even on index cards, so you MUST know the material to earn a good grade. You can always retake exams for a better grade. Other than that, easy class. Just show up and do some simple homework. FYI there is an in-class activity every day with group work.

Took his class for ANTHRO-12 but all you do IS WATCH MOVIES! There are only 3 finals but they are VERY EASY. The only outside work you do is reading small articles and watch movies. If you are looking for an easy class to pass, this would be it. He is an awesome/passionate professor too! Wish more people would join his Anthro-12 class.

Loved his class! He suggested interesting films and clips to watch in regards to lectures. You only have 3 exams that are easy if you take good lecture notes.

Mr. Prandini is easy going and makes learning about Anthropology fun. He gives you a great layout on what you need to get on each category in grading to get a certain grade. He's easy to talk to and will go over what you need to do to get your desired grade in the class. There's lots of opportunities to make up work and it is overall an easy class.

Amazing professor, offer extra credit opportunities. Genuinely wants to teach and help others learn.

super nice guy. he's easy to talk to. however, i did have a hard time passing his exams. I took good lecture notes, yet i barely passed any of his exams. thank god we are able to retake them, but overall, great class, great teacher, and great lectures.

Professor Prandini is an amazing professor who really cares about what he teaches. The class is overall very interesting and pretty easy to understand. There are 3 exams he gives, and he also allows 1 retake of any of the exams that you choose. Overall wonderful professor and very accessible outside of class.
