Very cool teacher that is willing to teach if you are willing to learn. Has a creative way of breaking things down for everyone and making the learning content not so dry. Shows DVDs in class to get a better understand of the subject.

He's a cool teacher. He is blunt though; which is actually good, since it'll help you in this class. He only assigned to major essays, which he grades fairly easy. Since you get a "0th" draft, a 1st draft, and a final draft. I recommend this tea

thing is, he's always 10-15mins late and lags when he gets class started. but hey, that's a good thing right?

GOOD NEWS, no thinking involved in this class. He gives out take home midterms. Quizes are a little bit hard, but overall easy class. His jokes are lame.

not bad of a teacher...very boring!..cus he takes his time in talking. but makes interesting examples...he is always LATE...if he is early...its SHOCKING

Easy Going. Only 2 essays. Quizes are little hard but tests re not.

Easy A class! Group quizzes and tests. Pretty good teacher and explains philosophy in more modern terms. Pretty impartial when trying to explain about philsophical theology. Pretty funny guy too. Take this class you won't regret it!

Nothing to say. He is very easy and funny guy.

this teacher is it! you'd be stupid not to take him for your Phil 10 or 60 class. real easy, and you don't always have to go to class!

Maybe because i'm really interested in philsophy, i don't find his class boring like everyone else does...actually it CAN be at times, but he's a good guy. Not condescending or or judgemental like Stephen Blades (a psychology teacher. i hate that guy). Work is really easy. Just read the book and take notes in class. Quizzes are easy. Good class.

this class is so easy, but it's boring as hell. You don't even have to show up to class everyday, just make sure of the test dates and keep up with your reading. i myself didn't skip his class but that was only cause of my ipod, that thing kept me awake. His final is straight from his tests and extremely easy.

He is a nice tecaher. Even though lecture was difficult sometimes, he was able to make people understand. Anyways, it is an easy course.

This class was insanely easy. I went to very few lectures and if I did go spent most of my time flipping through the book or doodling, its quite boring. went in to pick up the midterm and the final they were both take home. I emailed them to him. There are extra credit on both of them, they make 80% of the grade. I only got a B cuz i didnt do ec

Easy class. You don't have to get the book if you pay attention in class, which is a bit hard to do. Very very boring. Take his class with a friend and it'll go by faster. All the tests were group tests.

Dr. Wells is basically a disgruntled old man who looks like Gepetto. He doesn't take crap from anyone and hates students talking during class. He has good intentions and wants everyone to learn the stuff, but he is just SO boring. You get several quizzes which are all hard, a hard midterm, and a VERY TRICKY final! Do the reading & go over notes!

All tests are multiple choice. Midterm and Final were done in groups, although that may vary. Attendance is required. Book is available online. Extra credit essay worth 10%.

So easy! the test were very easy and the assignments as well. Nice guy too and he is pretty funny

Easy class. I got an A w/out studying much. And there have been times when I fell asleep during class (I sat in the front LOL). Just read whatever text he provides & you'll be ok. make sure to study the quizzes since that is where the midterm&final will come from. Boring lectures, but manageable to get through if you have an iPod. As for the teacher, he's not too bad... funny at times.

He is a great teacher who explains the material clearly. He is very helpful and accommodating.

the class was easy and i learned quite a bit! just take notes and read the text... you'll be fine. no homework besides the reading -- grades were based solely on test scores, which is nice. :)

Interesting class.Mr Wells can get a little boring,but he is quite funny at times.No HW just reading.All quizzes and exams are multi choice, which is good and bad. He give chance at extra credit as well.

He's funny and a dork. He's kind of boring but it's an easy class. Read the book and he goes over it and the quizzes are extremely easy. He gave our class the midterm in groups. I recommend this class.

Prof. Wells is a good teacher. His class was fairly straight forward and easy. He had a bunch of quizzes, a midterm, and a final. As long as you take notes and read the book, this class will be over in no time. He also tries to make some jokes, which sometimes are funny.

Dr. Wells is a great professor. A person must be really dumb, not to pass his class because not only this class easy, but it teach you a lot about philosophy and its philosophers. Also, reading is mandatory in this class because he quizzes you on it everyday. I would take this professor again.

this class was fairly easy but it also requires work. his lectures are straight forward but just remember to pay attention to his lectures because most.. if not all the questions on the quiz are from the lectures. great professor ! he was willing to add EVERYONE on the waitlist even when there were no more seats

You will pass with flying colors by paying attention to his straight forward lectures (that may be boring) and doing the assigned readings (buy the textbook ASAP). Dr. Wells also provides extra credit assignments that can boost your grade up to a whole letter grade.

A full on lecture class. There are quizzes for every section he covers in the book. If you read the book and take notes during his lectures you will pass the class. Quizzes, midterms and finals are all multiple choice and he gives extra credit for doing short essay questions (which are take-home). Some think he's boring, but he can be pretty funny.

Dr. Wells talks at a slow pace, so at first it was kind of hard to keep up with his lecture, having it so drawn out, but I found that after that first class I got used to it. His class is very easy, but I do recommend reading the textbook. He also types up his notes and makes them available to his students to study.

This is one of the best teachers i've had so far at EVC! He makes philosophy so easy especially when people cant understand he'll go over it again and again. He sometimes has group quizzes. The textbook is helpful if you read it before you go to class. It makes it easier to understand as well taking quizzes. I would totally recommend him.

Easy class. Copy notes, listen, skim through the book, all set for the quiz. I took his class seriously at first, but ended up not coming regularly since I already knew how his system works. He's a nice guy who will explain things for you. Yes, the class is very boring. Easy A for average students. TAKE HIM.

the class period felt very long, but we usually finished about a half hour early. He offers extra credit on the midterm and final, if you do it then you will probably get an A in the class.

Class is super easy. Quizzes and midterms are all T/F and multiple choice. Just use the powerpoint slides from publisher's site and you don't even need the book. Do the extra credit for grade boost. I had an A+ in this class. If you fail this class, you fail at life. Seriously.

this class was really easy, i just read the summary for the quizs, and for the final if you do the extra credit youll probably get an A.

Had him for Intro to Phil. and Logic/Critical Thinking. No homework, grade is all quizzes + exams, but they're not hard. Basically, read the book and/or follow his lectures, show up on quiz days, do some EC, and you can get an A. He's pretty generous with EC too. Really laid-back guy. The lectures are pretty dry, but it's philosophy.

read the chapter summary + do the online practice quiz (link is given at the end of each chapter in the book) = guarantee an A

Had him for summer. Lectures boring, but some of what he says is on the quiz. Study the chapter sections closely. He practically uses it word for word on quizzes. Quizzes were multiple choice. Gave a lot of extra credit. Final was made up for all quizzes, so study from the quizzes.

took him for winter session and im glad i did, it would of been a long semester, lectures are ENDLESS (slept couple of times), it helps to have the book with you to follow him, his funny at times, the teacher is coo but the subject isnt my cup of tea, the class is easy as long as you understand the text. his pretty easy on the students too i guess.

class is super boring, lectures can go on for days, he is a nice guy though he tries his best to help you understand the material there are weekly quizzes based from the book/notes final and midterm are recycled questions from previous quizzes just read the book and you'll do fine, he also offers alot of extra credit before the midterm and final

I suggest to sit up front, when he writes on the board, because he doesn't write so clearly. The questions for quizzes, midterms, & finals are from the book most of the time. He gives extra credit that may seem complex, but they're not. He wakes up the class by telling some jokes. Bring something to entertain yourself to keep yourself awake.

He's easy if you pay attention to lectures and study for the weekly quizzes. He explains things pretty well, but he is super borringg.

This guy's cool.

This guy grades ridicuously easy. His religous philosophy class was an easy A. The class is interesting and I learned a lot but my only complaint about the class is that dr wells when he reads his notes, reads word for word and rarely stops to ellaborate. However, he only reads the notes to class before a quiz which I found extremely helpful. I highly reccomend taking his class, he is a fantastic Professor and really knows his stuff. PS: he has messy writing but all his notes r online anyways

Dr. Wells knows his stuff! He does a very good job of explaining philosophical concepts in ways that stick. I find that the knowledge I received from this course follows me to this day. Attend class daily, take notes, and reading will not be necessary to get an A. Boring is irrelevant, when the material is so concisely presented. truly effective.

He goes over everything you need for his quizzes. If you are unsure just ask and he will try to simplify it. The presentation is dry and easy to fall asleep. Try to sit towards the front. He doesn't take roll but if you don't want to read you should go to class. Rarely read the book and ditched a lot and got a C in the class. Seen plenty of students that put in effort and aced most test.

he has the philosophical knowledge you need to understand and pass,he is an interesting professor.

Really nice teacher. Attendance is not mandatory. No HW in the class so the class is base on the test. The book it rather cheap since it cost are $40-$80. You might need it. but I barely read the book and got a B. The exams are all multiply choice and he lets you do extra credit to boost your exam score(only 1 maybe 2 exams).Lets you drop one exam.

hes a really nice man. Hes really easy but at the same time it can be hard if you dont go to class. You have to study for the quizzes because your grade will depend on them. Just dont get lazy and your good.

easy class and amazing teacher.Barely read the book and still got 105% on the class.You just have to go to class and listen to his lecture, read his notes, participate in group quizzes, do extra credit assignment(it gets your grade higher A LOT!) and you will do just FINE! he looks hard but totally not! highly recommend!

took this class last fall and it was pretty easy. I mean, i thought the quizzes were hard, but he lets you work in groups. He discards your lowest quiz score and the final is the sum of the questions on the quizzes. He uploads the quizzes online, so keep your scantrons! gives e.c. too! attendance is mandatory. got an A

Mandatory attendance, all material from books. Group quizzes but solo midterms/final (which are composed of material from quizzes). Very easy to pass the class if you study his notes uploaded on Moodle. Lots of movies watched during class ;) Good teacher overall. He is pretty funny when making jokes:)

This guys class is easy but his lecture can get a little boring sometimes. Anyways for intro we got to watch movies to learn philosophy so that was really cool. I aced his class and I highly recommend him

Great teacher. Lets you use notes and the book. Explains it and will go on a tangent if you let him. Very understanding and will work with you. One of my FAVORITE teachers ever

Took Dr. Wells class during intersession. He lets his students use notes during tests besides the midterm and final. Just pay attention in class an ask questions, then you'll do fine.

Took him for intersession. Allows to use notes for quiz everyday except for midterm and final. Everything is multiple choice and you get confused on many questions but if you pay lot of attention you can do good. He's strict on grading the skit and essay and thats what brings your grade down.

Dr. Wells is a solid teacher. The quizzes can be challenging but you are allowed to use notes and work in groups. No notes or groups during tests so be prepared.

Dr. Wells made Phil 60 and Phil 65 the easiest, most fun classes to learn in. Fun fact: this professor will write a book by next year to argue with Harvard professors. This guy sure knows his stuff!

His Intro to Philosophy class is pretty easy. You don't need the textbook, just show up and pay some attention. IMO, philosophy is pretty subjective, so I don't like that his tests are MCQ. Just read the notes online if you wanna get A. He likes it when people ask questions but the class is lecture-based and you watch movies.

highly recommend. he is hilarious and easy. you just need to read notes.

He is my favorite teacher, his class is really interesting, and you don't need the textbook which is great. For intersession you get group quizzes almost everyday, besides the midterm and final. And no homework (-:

Caring professor who really knows his stuff. He provides his notes and has group quizzes. He really just wants you to learn more about philosophy :)

GREAT GUY. GREAT PROFESSOR.

Really chill professor. I bought the book in new condition and never once opened it. Quizzes in every class if not most classes. There was 1 extra credit opportunity in this semester. During class he will show a video, lecture, and give out the quiz you can do with a partner or in a group, then if there isn't anything else planned you can go home.
