cool guy. relates well to the student body.

He gives you a lot of time to do your work and accepts late work. So as long as you do the work you will pass the class.

He lets you hand in things late so it's not such a stress if you don't have it done. Cool guy, likes to make a lot of jokes in class and doesn't mind getting off topic sometimes.

Adorable. Great teacher, really nice person. ALWAYS willing to help students. Has perfect writing method that even the best writers can use for when they 'get stuck'. Ask him to do his rendition of beat poet Allen Ginsburg's 'Sunflower Sutra'!

Really nice teacher. Fair and Understanding. Explains material well.

Probably the best teacher I have ever had. Very understandable and approachable.

Nice guy, nice teaching style. Late assignments OK, but really no need for them. Enjoyable class overall. Would definitely recommend.

good teacher will get an easy A

Very funny teacher who understand we don't really want to be in class. There's lots of little writing assignments but only one big paper that builds on itself. He's very helpful and encouraging. Oh, study the vocab words too!

A rarity. Kris is an instructor whose interest in his field becomes contagious in his classes. He if funny, very approachable, and always willing to help. He made my love of literature even more deep.

One of the best. Mr. Piepenberg ranks in the top three professors I have ever taken, alongside two other Harper teachers: Andrew Wilson (ENG) and Tom DePalma (HST). He's extremely helpful, incredibly nice and approachable, and his utterly dry, sarcastic sense of humor is unmatched. An amazing prof.

i took his class 1,5 ago and loved it.

awesome prof! wants you to understand and do well, super helpful, if u consistantly show up, he'll let you turn in papers late, loose due dates, reading is def not overwhelming at all

hes one of the greatest teachers, so easy, just do your homework,show up, and dont be an ass in class. easy A. its impossible not to get at least a B on your big final easy he makes it so easy for you. hes hilarious and random.take him!

Awesome teacher, very helpful and organized in his teaching style. Will get an easy A if do your homework and so up in class regularly.

My favorite college teacher. Was really helpful, I learned so much from this class. He prepared me for transfering to a University. He has a very odd pessimistic humor that is hilarious, and he assigns a lot, but he is very fair with it and makes it as easy as possible. Just don't piss him off, he will humiliate you in front of everyone.Kris=A+

he is so awesome. if you do all the work, you will probably get an A. he's really helpful and explains everything like 10 times to make sure everyone understands it. he has a dry sense of humor, but he tries..

When I saw him first time, I was kinda scared about what his react. But he is nice and funny and make all the students are comfortable even foreign students. Midterm and final exams are easy and if you all the homework, you will easy to get an A

Very clear in what he expect from his students. A very good teacher.

He is so awesome instructor, probably the easiest grader in Harper English Dept. He explains so clearly...Cool Professor...Highly Recommended!!!

very good teacher and besides if you are not a native speaker he'll help you out.

Kris is hands down a phenomenal instructor. He makes everything understandable. Caters to those who aren't so great in English as well to those who maybe majoring in it. I felt all of his criticisms were extremely helpful, After taking it, I felt as if I were a better analyzer. Best prof i've had EVER. TAKE HIM!

he is great teacher. Very helpful, easy going. Just do his homework, show desire to learn, ask questions, come to class- you will get easy A. he writes notes on your essays, so just fix them next time. Very helpful for student who's English is not native language. TAKE HIS CLAS, EASY A!

He's cool laid back and deff a good teacher. Almost no homework and real funny!

Do not think, just take his class! A great great teacher!!! Just pay attention on his instructions. He knows exactly what he is doing! Very intellegent !!! No doubt!!!

Students, if even you want a great teach, take Mr Piepenberg. This guy is amazing. He is extremely helpful. He helps a lot. So if even you want have an easy A take his class. He is funny too

Don't even waste a second to think about it. Just take him. This guy is amazing. I used to hate Emglish, but after I took him, I ended up with A- and English was my third language. So Please take Mr.Piepenberg.

Hands down take this class. Mr. Pipenburg is a great teacher, come to class do your homework and you will get an A. He explains everything very thoroughly and comes across as extremely intelligent.

GIve intense assignments. Makes you work for your grade. Expects you to attend class, which is why you are in college. Do NOT like group projects in any class, and there is one in this class. He gives feedback on your assignments & lets you resubmit them for a better grade.

THE BEST TEACHER EVER!!!!!!!!!TAKE HIS CLASS AND YOU WILL NOT REGRET. You have to go to every class, but other than that he is a great, nice, smart, intelligent and helpful guy. If you follow his instructions you will get A. OWESOME TEACHER! TAKE HIM!

Mr. Piepenburg is an excellent teacher who can make even the tedious English Composition class interesting and useful. I highly recommend him. One of the best instructors I've had.

Take Mr. Piepenburg if you can. I learned so much from his class. He really helps you write your papers and makes it less complicated. This makes this class fun. Come to class, pay attention, do the work. I got an A.

He's a nice guy and the class is rediculously easy, but it's also very tedious and very redundant. Mostly short stories and answering three questions. Take home tests. The first paper turns into the second paper. But he's kind of a nerd and a little boring, which makes the class hard to sit through. I often feel like my intelligence is in question.

is the best teacher in English 102 that i would ever recommend to anyone and uses most interesting text books.

Professor Piepenburg is a great instructor. He has made a Monday night class worth attending. He makes it fun and entertaining while still dicussing the subject matter. Would def. suggest for Eng. 102

He's an ok teacher, but he singles students out and makes them feel stupid. I got yelled at almost everyday when I was writing down an assignment or making note of something he said. And if you don't do a group project right he'll make you feel really stupid. DO NOT TEXT. He'll definitely call you out. I think he'd be a good teacher if he wasn't so

He is a very good teacher but has a very bad temper. you will have to attend his classes and follow his instructions strictly. He is a easy grader if u work well on your homework and research paper.

Both funny and boring at the same time but an overall good guy. Not hard to get a good grade if you do the work.

Kris is an awesome teacher. If you need to pass Eng-102 take him.If you can follow directions and do the homework, you'll pass easily.I feel bad for the guy because there were so many idiots in my class and he was stressed out. Take him, No Regrets!

Aweesome teacher...Just come to class and contribute to the class discussions. Although this is an easy A, I would not reccomend Pipenberg for a blow off student just because he has a short temper with laziness and he does not hesitate to pick on you. If you want to learn and earn a good grade though, your in the right place

U ARE REALLY DUMB IF U DONT GET AN A IN THIS CLASS!!!HE SOUNDS RUDE AND MEAN BUT HE IS REALLY HELPFUL IF U JUST DONT GET ON HIS BAD SIDE!!

What a great teacher! It stinks though when other students don't appreciate him or his efforts. Very nice guy.

i really like kris. he was boring cause i had his class one day a week for 3 hours but other than that he is cool. i got an A. =) good guy to take

Like I read here, I needed to pass 102 and I took him.I pass.And I learned.He teaches well.Sometimes gets angry not that patient but nevertheless helpfull.Homework reasonable. Breaks down big writing assign.very well so it's helpfull!If you are generally a good student you will pass with an A. Guaranteed. Fair grader. Kinda monotone

Professor Piepenburg was the right choice for me. I breezed through his class. Here's what you need to do to pass his class: show up, do the required homework assignments, don't plagiarize, follow directions, proofread your papers, and don't irritate him. His class is straighforward for anyone willing to do what is asked.

Attendance is mandatory and he hates late comers, he points them out through out the class. Good in teaching, but does not like interruptions while he's talking. Not too hard of a grader.

Great professor. Seemed to get frustrated with the lack of willingness to work, and intelligence of some of my classmates. Usually always cracks jokes, and doesn't take himself too seriously. As previously mentioned, don't be late. TL/DR? Be willing to do the work, and you'll get a good grade.

Honestly one of the funniest people I have encountered in my life. Highly recommended.

people are stupid.. mr. piepenburg is so easy! As long as you dont make stupid comments/mistakes and read/do everything that is required.. I got an A easily without doing too much work.. yeah he gets mad when kids make dumb mistakes on the research paper but honestly were in college. he was really funny too take him for an easy A if your not stupid

hE IS GOOD.

THIS IS THE BEST ENGLISH TEACHER EVER!!! If you suck at English & dont like it or dont understand it...take him!!! He has a dry sense of humor..which may take you time to see but he is very helpful as a teacher and very understanding!!! GREAT TEACHER!!!! FIRST ENGLISH TEACHER I LIKED..AND FIRST TIME I EVER GOT AN "A" IN ENGLISH!!!

Very nice and gives extra time and very generous. Doesn't like if you talk in class while he is speaking and doesn't like excuses. Very good teacher,very fair and helpful.

Very good teacher and very helpful and allow extra time for homework, which sometimes people seem to take advantage of. He doesn't like people talking during class while he is speaking. He doesn't use blackboard,uses handouts, which I found extremely helpful & appreciated.Has low tolerance for people who always had excuses. Great teacher !!!

do not take this prof. He is extremely boring and mean to students. He gets very upset if you are late. The class i had to take with him was 3 hrs long. He expects you to read assignments and participate.

He's a good teacher. His sense of humor is a little off but if you understand it then you won't get offended. Overall good experience, if you fail then I don't know how you passed Eng. 101. There are reading assignments but none that are out of the ordinary. He lets you correct your papers for a higher grade. Very nice, knows how to teach.

Best Teacher so far at Harper. He is crystal clear in what he wants. He is the most organized teacher I have come across. If you like English, take him. If you have trouble in English, take him, he will get you through it. Read the stories and turn in your homework, on-time and in complete sentences. He is more than fair in grading. NO PHONES.

Mr. Pipenburg is great teacher, he is very helpful. I took him for ENG 101 and 102, and both classes were great. He give a good amount of homework, which has to be done on time for good grade. If you want to learn and improve your writing take him. Very good instructor.

he is the best teacher i ever had!if you do your assignments ,be on time,don't miss class,don't use cell phone and participate in class ,you don't have to worry! Recommend this teacher!

One of the best teachers at Harper! He may seem tough, but that's only to lazy students planning on costing through his class.

The best teacher ever.

Mr.Piepenburg is the best teacher I have had in my life.Non-west lit was really interesting and I actually enjoyed writing papers and doing the assignments. Expect a lot of reading, homework, and avoid plagiarism. Do NOT use your cell-phones. Be thoughtful & creative with hmk and papers--you will get an A! It was an honor to have him as my teacher

He is a very good teacher. i am ex-esl student and i was scared of my first real english class, but he made me like english. i have never had any talent in writing in my own language but he was delighted with my writing, and he even published one of my essays. he is really good, organized, he makes everything so simple and very clear. Great teacher

Best teacher I've had yet at Harper! He's very lenient in the beginning of the semester, and happens to give more than enough time for papers, which he also allows revision to get a better grade. He appreciates when class isn't missed. He's a funny individual, his sarcasm is the best. His class is actually the only one I look forward to going.

He's a really sarcastic guy and sometimes people take it the wrong way...but he's the man! I took him for 101 & 102 cause I liked him so much. He could not be more clear about the work he wants done, gives a lot of instruction on exactly what he wants out of papers and he offers revisions for a higher grade. You have to try to do bad in his class.

The course is a little boring, he likes to talk a lot. But he gives very clear instructions on how to write assignments, and he is an easy grader. There are 1-2 essays for each class + 3 bigger papers.

Mr. Piepenburg is truly a tremendous professor so long as you are willing to both pay attention in class and put a modicum of work in. You must earn at least a C on the final paper in order to pass the class. Do not, under any circumstances, use your cell phone in his class or he will call you out on it. Points docked for tardiness. Easy A.

Great teacher. Couldn't ask for a better one. Just follow his guidelines on the paper and you'll do great.

Best teacher ever!!!! I am a very bad writer, but he made it so easy and is very understanding. Because of him Ive became a better writer. I strongly recommend you taking him for eng 102. You wont regret it

Very Nice teacher, class isn't a sleep through easy A. but u have to do absolutely NOTHING to get lower than a C. I had him. very cool guy, and english isn't my strongest point at all. If there is a sleep through easy A teach take that one. if not. take HIM! Im serious!

The best english teacher out there. He layouts out clearly how to write a great paper. He literally give you a formula in how to do it and I've used it for every paper I've had later in college and I always get an A. Highly suggest any student thats not big on writing, like me, take him. He will make college life much easier.

Best teacher I've had! Wants his students to do well, and grades you based on the improvement in your own writing. He gives CLEAR expectations, extended deadlines, is encouraging and more than helpful. Easy A.

Worst instructor ever, I saw rating on ratemyproffesor and took his class, it was hard as hell. I just missed 2 homework assignments and I gave me C in his class. Even he took in class essay for finals. If u r not willing to study hard then DO NOT take him.

He made learning about the different cultures of Asia and Africa very interesting and fun! Be warned though there is ALOT of reading in this class if you don't read don't expect to do well! Quizzes and tests are super easy if you read the texts! All tests are exactly like the study guides he gives you! Good class overall! :)

Clear and direct about materials that will be covered throughout the course. Teaching methods could do some improvement. Lectures are somewhat boring. He likes to make sarcastic jokes that are not even funny. In other words, low sense of humor. Pretty helpful teacher. He gives comments that will definitely help improve a student's writing skills.

Overall great teacher! His outline for the class is set up in a way that helps the student as they progress throughout the class. Assigns hw every week, but it's sooo easy, and the hw is a great way to increase your grade, esp if you're not a great writer.

Mr Piepenburg is the best teacher! He is very helpful. He has a good sense of humor, which makes this class even more enjoyable. There is not a lot of reading. The homeworks are easy and not a lot. I highly recommend his ENG101 class. It's fun, it's helpful and easy. My grade was A.

Piepenburg is awesome! His sense of humor makes my day. It helps the class go by. Yes he speaks in monotone but you can tell he enjoys literature and tries to prevent everyone from falling asleep. He gives a decent amount of homework that may seem like a lot at first but it's not as bad as it could be. Hands things back on time. Highly recommended

He is a great instructor. Have to attend every class but gives you 100% direction as to what he expects. Do the work and you will get an A! Can get angry if you don't follow instructions! So pay attention! Highly Recommend.

I like the way he gives homework for next class of reading two short stories and answer question about those stories. He gives clear on all three papers including research paper. If you do your work and submit it on time you will definitely get good grades for this class.

I love this teacher, one of my favorites at Harper. He's sarcastic at times but that's what makes the class less boring. He grades accurately and is extremely clear about instructions and due dates. Do the assignments, turn them in on time and you will have no problem.

Kris Piepenburg was one of my absolute favorite instructors. His courses are not easy, but they're interesting, engaging, and designed to help students understand the material. He's obviously interested in the readings himself. I don't want an easy A; I want to thoughtfully engage with the reading, and he really guides students through the texts.

Great sense of humor, and goes slowly, making sure everyone is on the same page. He gives extensions all the time as long as you ask

Excellent professor with extraordinary wit. If you read, do the assignments, and participate in class this will be enjoyable and you will score well. You can consider yourself one of the lucky students to have the benefit of his knowledge if you attend his class.

You have to attend and do your homework regularly to receive a good grade. He is very helpful and understanding. He makes it very easy to get an A.

Teacher has a dry sense of humor but I enjoy that so I found him quite funny. Some people found his class a boring but I would just call him thorough. You must attend all classes and do assignments. Expect to write 3-4 pages every week. Good teacher, very helpful. I would recommend him

Must take this professor for ENG 102! It was easier than 101 in my opinion. He is very helpful and loves to see students participating and will help you succeed. English was usually one of my worst subjects, and now i have an A. Overall, I highly recommend taking him.

I love this professor. Very funny guy, if you can get his jokes. only 3 papers needed for the class, midterm which was take home. Dont get on his bad side bc he will use any chance to call you out. Do your papers, go talk to him if you dont get good grades, and he will help you get an A. he really wants to see everybody succeed.

He was an amazing teacher! Just do not misbehave in his class. He is only trying his best to get you to do the best you can. Take him! This class is actually easier and more fun than eng 101! he also gives extensions

Professor Piepenburg Is among the best of the best at Harper. His instructions are crystal clear, and if you still have problems,just ask, he is happy to help. Show up physically and mentally and all will be well. Participation is key on your way to a good grade. Very interesting subject selection. Good sense of humor, and all around good guy.

Very relaxed and interesting teacher. Some of the material we had to read was a little a dry or weird but easily manageable. Only a couple of essays and homework would be short responses to material. Great teacher.

He was an awesome teaching, to the point and always ready to listen if you ever need any help. He does expect all homework turn in and if you work really hard you will have no problem passing his class. Do not misbehave he will call you out.

All he wants is for you to learn! He will hold your hand (not literally) through every paper. There is only two papers and the last paper is just adding info to the first paper. Very interesting stories to read. The class is a literature based research class. Easy grader if you show effort in understanding the coursework (analyzing short stories).

This class was extraordinary, Mr. Piepenburg's curriculum is impressive. It has obviously taken years to develop and is updated often. You must write a research paper to pass, if that scares you, take Mr Piepenburg. He walks you through the process carefully and thoughtfully. He is helpful and approachable. Definately an exceptional educator.

The absolute best instructor!!! Very clear and on point. Very flexible, gives you plenty of time to get papers done. Class not exciting but he is so clear on his expectations and as long as you show up, participate if you can, complete the assignments, your good. He saved us so much money by printing everything we needed for the course. The best!

Very nice guy, but the classes are boring and dull. However he explains things very clearly, gives you lots of time to work on the homework. Also he does not require you to buy a book because he thinks they are too expensive, so yay ! If you do the work and show up, you will pass even if you're not the sharpest crayon in the box.

I've never had such a thorough teacher. He explains things down to its core and makes impossible not to understand what is going on in class. He's thoughtful and brilliant. We read a lot, but they're all really good stories. A lot of homework too, but it's easy. Miss class and don't do homework -- he won't like you.

Best instructor ever! The most pleasant and interesting classes! Very intelligent person. I enjoyed everything about this class: structure, readings, content, writings.

If you have a hard time in English class, this guy is for you. Very easy to understand, goes over the material and his expectations very clearly. He's a little dry and if you are a really good student you might find him boring. If you get less than a B from him you clearly did not pay attention or do the work, he painstakingly goes over with you!

Hands down the best English professor ever. This guy is amazing. He's extremely clear with feedback and grading criteria. He structures this class in a way that makes it easy to succeed. He genuinely cares about his students. I saw him helping students whose first language is not English. I highly recommend taking his class to pass English 102.

Hands down the best English professor ever. This guy is amazing. He's extremely clear with feedback and grading criteria. He structures this class in a way that makes it easy to succeed. He truly cares about his students. I saw him helping students whose first language is not English. I highly recommend taking his class to pass English 102.

Professor Piepenburg is absolutely wonderful! He helps all his students succeed. He's a very relaxed guy, who is always willing to help. He goes over directions and writing tips really well. You only do 2 papers. The first one is a paper without research, and then you add research to make it into the final research paper. His topic is also fun.

He's an awesome professor! He can get great research papers out of not so great writers. He designed his class a certain way to make it easier to write the final paper. I genuinely enjoyed this class. I never thought it would feel so easy writing such a long paper. His topic is short stories, and I loved the stories! Also do the basic hwk!

Piepenburg is a gem! Such an intelligent and kind professor. His topic is great, and I genuinely enjoyed this class. I never thought I would actually like an English class. There's homework along with the readings, but it's not bad at all. Do yourself a favor and take him for English 102.

If you feel you struggle in English class, definitely take this teacher. Took the class over the summer, & course load is a lot for the first few weeks, but starts to lessen after the 5th week. Very nice teacher, but also seems lazy at times. Lenient grader for essays & homework. Class is boring at times, but he'll like you if you come to class.

There is a lot of papers. The final research paper is a big one but he has a system that helps you build on your paper throughout the class. Great teacher. Lectures are not the most exciting, but he does a good job explaining and getting the class involved. The short stories we read are interesting and entertaining. TAKE THIS CLASS to get an A

Hands down best English teacher ever !! He really cares a lot about his students. If you put in the work you will PASS! If your not good at writing papers his teaching will be beneficial to you . His expectations are clear and understandle. Long lectures but its worth it ...

Really good professor! Nice person too :)

I learned a lot. He takes the time to explain every assignment. If you're bilingual I recommend you to take this class. He is very helpful and such a great instructor!

this is the best professor I've ever had. he give a lot of paper work, but that's because he truly cares and give you all the information needed to understand what he wants. he's organized and color codes paper work. he really cares about everyone in his class. he gives the opportunity to turn in late work and correct essays for a better grade.

HE IS ONE OF THE BEST PROFESSOR AT HARPER. YOU WILL GET A IF YOU FOLLOW HIS INSTRUCTION. HE IS VERY WILLING TO HELP & LISTEN STUDENTS. ALWAYS GIVE GOOD FEEDBACK.

Great teacher! Im horrible at writing papers but hes there to help you every step of the way!

What an amazing teacher. His class is relaxed, but in order to really get the most out of it, you must participate and actually read the books (which by the way are truly eye-opening). Mr. Piepenburg has this indescribable sense of humor which makes his classes real enjoyable. The amount of knowledge he has on the topics discussed is incredible.

Best Teacher in Harper for English

Mr Piepenburg is an all around outstanding teacher and person. He cares about his student, and is extremely knowledgeable on the curriculum (which is significant and interesting). If you are going to take his class, you need to read what he gives you for homework and show up to class. Minimal group work. A few papers and some homework assignments.

He helped me a lot and was one the few teachers in all my years of schooling that got through to me.

Professor Piepenburg was a fantastic professor. I took ENG102-12 week class unfortunately COVID made us transition to online on week 6. Piepenburg made the transition smooth and communicated very well. Piepenburg is a VERY understanding professor if shown youre committed to the class. Both in person and online he was great. Only 2 absences allowed.

Awesome professor. Very knowledgeable about current topics. His class was always fun.

His class was very relaxed and he provides a lot of useful feedback for assignments and essays. The first few weeks of class have a really heavy work-load but it eases up after that. He truly cares about students and wants them to do well!

He is such a great teacher. He really cares about his students and that they learn in his class. His homework and assignments all help you with your final research paper due. I learned so much from this class that has helped me in many of my other courses, honestly his methods work. He is such a nice person too!

Best teacher I've had by far. I had him online and still everything is clear and easy to understand. As long as you do the work you will be fine. Be sure to read everything he puts out more than once to really understand it, if you do you will be fine, it is overly clear.

He is such an easy grader and as long as you complete the work, you will be fine. Every week we had 1 or 2 homework assignments where we read a short story and answer questions. The entire semester we wrote 1 essay and then a research paper at the end of the semester, not that much work for an english class, recommend!

Clearly explains what is expected. Only two papers throughout the whole semester and he gives a ton of information and feedback to help you succeed. As long as you stay on top of your assignments and put in the effort you'll do great

Amazing Professor. Took this class online. He is clear with his grading criteria, gives good feedback, responds quickly on email, gives feedback on the essay, and will tell you what you can improve to earn a better grade. His instructions about writing an essay and a research paper are detailed and easy to follow. Totally recommend him!

He is a solid teacher who gives clear grading criteria for homework and papers. Since it was a literature class, be prepared to read a lot and the work might take longer than one day to complete. The topics were interesting, but I would say the workload was much more than a typical class. If you love reading, I'd recommend him for sure.

Prof. Piepenburg is a good professor for english, his expectations are clear and he gives you so many tools to succeed. The class can be a bit stressful, there are two readings every week, and questions to follow. Only 2 essays for the semester, one is a research paper. Not a hard grader do your work & follow his directions, and youll get an A.

12-week course with 13 fictional stories to read. Each story has an assignment. Only one essay in which you will be adding research material as the weeks go by. No final. The final essay is basically your last assignment. Lots of work and extra material for assignments. Good professor, willing to help! Use time wisely! Do your work & you'll be fine

Dr. Piepenburg is one of the best professors I have ever taken for an English class. He responds to emails immediately, and provides helpful advice. My writing skills improved from this course, and he provided words of encouragement. The articles were interesting, and I enjoyed writing the paper for his class. Highly recommend taking his class!

One of the best professors i have ever had! Definitely take him! You will learn a lot of useful information.

Mr. Piepenburg is an excellent professor at Harper and I would highly recommend enrolling in his courses. He provides fantastic resources and provides the student with a wealth of information regarding literature experiences for the student. There is a lot of work but well worth the time investment!

Professor Piepenburg is an overall solid teacher, I do have to say his instructions on the two big essays are a lot, but if you do what he outlines to do you'll pass the class! The homework assignments are just reading and then answering some questions too. There is a lot of writing but he does give options for revisions and gives real advice.

Amazing teacher. He gives incredible feedback and responds quickly to emails. He is very understanding if you need extra time. The instructions for the essays look like a lot, but I found them to be extremely helpful in organizing my information and putting together my papers. I am definitely going to be using those methods for future essays.

Really good professor! Always responsive to emails and is willing to help you. This class is a lot of work though. and you have to be persistent.

What can be said about Piepenburg? The man is simply the goat. A stoic, non-threatening goat who may casually engage in African throat singing if necessary. He is the kind of man who may be mistaken for a giant loser to the untrained eye, but is actually effortlessly cool. I would not be surprised if he secretly knows some kind of martial art.

One of the best English teachers in Harper College. I would say him and AndrewWilson are the best in Harper College. He is very respectful and carrying.

Mr. Piepenburg is such a great professor. This class has a heavy workload but everything we learn is very interesting. He is very understanding and is fair about accepting late assignments. He acknowledges that we have lives outside of school.

Blud is awesome.

This is my 2nd time taking one of his classes & hes AWESOMEE. Honestly its a lot of work but the instructions are soooo clear & written out its impossible to do badly if u just do it & the content is rlly interesting. He also gives so many extensions & is extremelyy lenient abt late work. Hes also a rlly easy grader & hypes you up!

He just wants all his students to succeed and therefore is very lenient with most assignments. The workload can seem a lot at times, but he's super clear with his instructions. It's impossible not to do well, when he states exactly what he is looking for. I learned a lot in this course and would definitely take this professor again.

He's pretty slow with grading stuff but he's also a pretty easy grader if you put in an ounce of effort.

Professor Kris is a tough grader, but the work is manageable with effort. Lectures can be dense, but engaging with the free textbook and using unstuckstudy for study prep made this class doable. Highly recommend for students willing to put in the work.

Amazing professor and gives valuable feedback.

There is a lot of homework assignments. They're not that hard tho just answering questions from short story. There's one essay and one final paper at the end of the semester. He really helped me. I struggled at the beginning, but then he stepped in and helped me pass. He lets u revise. Late work is accepted. Replies fast. If u take time he will.

Took him for ENG102 in the summer and he was okay. Lots of reading but they're all really interesting and engaging short stories. You have 2 essays and he'll give a lot of instructions about them, sometimes can be confusing tho. Accepts late work and responds back to emails fast.

I truly enjoyed having professor Pipenburg. He shows compassion in his classes and towards his students. There is a lot of work: short stories, tests, and two essays (the essays count as your final. Without them, you will not pass). Mr. Pipenburg is always willing to help if you don't understand. Side note: he will not tolerate AI work.

Mr.Piepenburg is a great teacher who cares about his students. He provides excellent feedback and is always willing to help with writing assignments. He is also very lenient on due dates (as long as a final paper is turned in on time).
