Very funny teacher, hard marker but very helpful guy
Fantastic teacher, take his class.
Really funny, easy marker if you do what he wants. He's really fun.
Funny, friendly but still strict. Do what he expects on papers cause he's a tough marker. But he says clearly what he wants so it's not rocket science.
in summer 2003 he was ****ing. he is funny but a very tough marker.
Great teacher, but if you wanna feel that you accomplished a whole lot, don't take him. He gives out A's like madman, and at the end, the class average is so high that if you got an A, you're most likely to be below average.
Mark is so hot that I couldn't really pay attention to his lecture on Benjamin. I got hard on Habermas and I wanted to spank him on Spinoza. Take this guy's class ... he is smart and sexy!
Everything that you write in class will be graded normal, but the take-home stuff will be graded very very strictly. Didn't quite like his way of teaching, but overall he is an OK prof. and he tries to make it easy for the students.
I found him to be clear, although that wasn't everyone's opinion. He was nice, humble and fair. Not very conscious of the time though. Tended to be a bit late and go overtime, miss breaks etc. I learned a lot in his class though and enjoyed him.
Good prof, I'm taking his other philo next term. Has sort of a sweeping style on the board, lots of diagrams, trick: wait until the board is full and you have the whole picture in your mind before you write any notes down. i have an A+ in his class, and all you have to do is write 3 tightly written papers.
Nice guy, very confusing teacher and unclear, @ least in the beginning then u start to get the hang of the jibberish hes talking. class is about friendship not life. Unpredictable marker,Got an(A)on a bad paper,a(B-)on a great paper.Go to all the classes and its easier. TA is more helpful if u have questions. Only 3 papers all year and no final!!!!
he is such a nice teacher. very easy marker. i had no idea what i was write about and i got A's and B's in his class. not too much work only 3 papers all term. no final. his notes are very messy but a very nice teacher.
nice guy, reasonable marker and no exam. 3 papers is all you need to do and even if you bs the entire paper you'll likely do fairly well.
Wow I was soooooooo lost, he just rambles and writes stuff on the board, very disorganized, and the grading is all over the place, you'll get A's where you should have gotten C's and C's where you should get A's. If you do take him please drop his class if you feel like you should after the first class, i thought things would change but they didnt.
not a great class if you really want to think for yourself, but very easy. he goes over everything you need to know for your papers in class, and all you have to do is recite it back. only three papers and no exam - a tiny workload. a very nice teacher, interesting teaching style, and helpful during office hours.
I like his teaching style actually and he is a dynamic speaker which is a nice change. Haven't gotten any papers back yet but the class isn't boring and he is obviously possesses a great deal of knowledge within his field.
Dr. Rozahegy is a dynamic, intelligent, passionate teacher. This course was more engaging and challenging than any other I have taken. Chats during office hours were very helpful. His black board notes are a disaster; paraphrase! He circles around and revisits difficult concepts; sometimes confusing but ultimately effective.
not a good teacher!!!
Great prof! The subject matter was intense and borderline incomprehensible, but he made it thought-provoking and easier to grasp. He's an enthusiastic and engaging professor and not to hard on the eyes either.
haven't gotten any papers back yet-so i don't know what his grading style is...but his in class lectures are interesting and fun. He's a captivating speaker, good at breaking down dense theory into something comprehendable. And he makes really cute jokes.
total babe. really intelligent.
charismatic, funny,really appealing. lectures are interesting and engaging.
The class wasn't particularly difficult, but the man is incomprehensible. The class is basically him rambling on the entire time, and his handwriting is garbage. Otherwise, he was a nice enough guy, just needs to organize himself.
I agree with "Wow I was so lost", very disorganized teacher, very unclear, and it didn't get better. He needs to teach the subject slowly and clearly rather than delivering the same lecture several times over again quickly and in a disorganized way. I can't assess him as a grader as I finally gave up and dropped out.
No Comments
This guy is a genious! Not what I was expecting for an introductory class. but it was pleasantly surprising. 3 well written papers are all it takes to get an A. His diagrams are really helpful, confusing at first but wait until he's done and then write it all down...he puts off erasing the important stuff for most of the class so it works out.
Class was far more confusing than it needed to be, but he's nice to look at.
true his blackboard style is totally chaotic. other than that hes top shelf.
Excellent prof. The lectures are engaging and very intelligent. It's great to have a prof who doesn't assume we're a bunch of idiots. Highly recommended!
mark is definitely one of the best. his lectures are interesting all the way through, he is funny and charasmatic, genuinely interested in the success of his students, easy marker, & extremely knowledgeable. he's scattered & goofy, but never misses the point. if you make a point to contact him before papers he will tell you exactly how to get an A.
Disappointed by his teaching techniques, and unseen that more than half the class is failing. I will not recommend this class to other students.
Mr. Rozahegy is a great guy. Knows his stuff through and through and is a really nice person. Very unorganized teaching style though, and if you want to do badly in a class, not understand anything, and work really hard for nothing - take intro to metaphysics.
He is exactly what every English teacher should aspire to be. His writing is atrocious and he's a little scattered, but he is helpful and likeable. He tells you exactly what he expects on papers, and will let you rewrite your lowest grade. He actually helps his students improve and wants them to do well-imagine!
best english teacher I have ever had!!
Absolutely terrific proffesor. His teaching style is directed at elucidating concepts: nothing else. Extremely smart, and brings his own philosophies into the picture in a very appropriate way. I wish every proffesor was this good.
I've never been the same since. Everything in the world feels less exciting and less volume now that he is gone from my life. I looked forward to his classes more than I looked forward to going out with my friends on the weekend. Anyone who experiences the gift that is his presence, is instantly wealthy with magic. He IS my metaphysics.
Had him for Metaphysics. Although we were absorbed in Heidegger, I will not hate on this professor. His only pitfall is his scattered blackboard writing. Regardless, you can tell he put effort into clarifying these difficult texts. He is also a good comedian with a nice touch of self-deprecating humor. His imitation of students was good, too.
Warning! This course is all about Heidegger. For your own piece of mind, get a taste of Heidegger before taking this class; many people end up hating this course because they just don't understand the readings. He's a good prof, he puts a lot of effort into his class. Fair marker if your capable of articulating the material.
Really fun prof, helpful. entertaining classes (his mental struggle is the same as yours!) It was a great intro class. Lots of reading though, but as long as you stay on top of it and highlight your text, you're good!
Don't take this class with him. Do your self a favor and wait till someone else is teaching this course. his notes on the board are nothing more than words and lines. It's so hard to follow him in class, he's not comprehendible. If more people would rated him, his ratings would be really low.
Had him in Engl 207. Easy course but was made ridiculously easier by him. He'll tell you lots of stories of him getting into the military and may try to introduce you to philosophical stuff but there's nothing to worry. Has genuine sense of humour. Enjoy the ride while you can: he's a very easy marker compared with other engl teachers I had !!!!!
I liked this guy, he's not the "almighty eng prof" like a lot of the other ones, there's something genuine about him. Material is clear enough, solid grader and makes funny comments. Loves to say the 3 words of "in terms of"
Good prof who obviously enjoys his job. Easy marker and he knows it. Does a good job trying to discover poetry with the students. Lots of participation. Too bad the subject is so boring to me (poetry analysis), but I got more out of it than I expected to. Don't hesitate to take a class with him, it will work out.
Excruciatingly funny, knows what he's on about, passionate, masters course material, to the point. Best prof I've had yet.
Just as philosophical thoughts are all over the place so is he. However, he is great and very open. Do the reading because he wont make sure you did them until the paper submission. Great philosophy class.
Very approachable. Work hard and you'll learn a lot/do well. Shows you HOW to break down literature. Pretty straightforward about what he expects on essays, however his diagrams can be confusing. Jokes were also sort of lame, but overall, good prof. No BS.
Prof. Rozahegy is one of the best philosophy profs at Concordia. I've taken five courses (PHIL 226,265,275,377,398) from him and each one has proved highly enlightening. He is not a strict marker and is always engaging in class. He also uses the blackboard quite a bit. Pay attention during lectures or you'll be lost! Very flexible office hours.
I would go out of my way to take another class with him, very passionate, very smart. Id recommend going to his office to talk with him, he's very open to having long discussions and it will help clarify any doubts. He's also a nice guy, let me take an extra week to hand in an essay.
Prof. Rozahegy was good at generating curiosity in the material. His descriptions were vague at times but that probably has more to do with the course material. He is stellar in the office hours and is more than capable of clarifying concepts. He is also a funny and relatable guy, someone you could see yourself having a beer with sometime.
Very easy going and funny prof, fair marker .all he wants is you follow his guideline like most engl prof and be logic in your essay. Very patient guy and easy with assignments
I like this professor. I always met him during his office hour. I liked to ask him how to write an essay properly. Try to make more communication with him, and you will be fine. I got B- in ENGL 210. The highest grade I have ever had in 6 English courses including ESL.I'm very happy. However, there was no A+,A students. The highest grade was A-.
Mark is the best prof I have had in Conc. He knows his stuff more than he should, he is helpful and an awesome guy overall. Go to his office hours and he'll help you as much as you want if you care for the course. I adored the course!
I do admit that Mark is vey nice. However, as an intensive summer course, he made it completely challenging. He asked us to read 5 books and other articles posted on the library website. Then, we had to write 4 short papers during five weeks. I considered such workload extremely heavy and unreasonable. I eventually dropped this course!
I went to the first class. His lecture was a bit hard to follow. Although this is a summer course, we are asked to read five books and to write four short papers within only five weeks. Yes, he is approachable and knowledgeable, but his office hours are too short. He used the blackboard a lot, but his handwriting was very difficult to recognize.
absolutely brilliant and hilarious. Come to class with a blank mind and allow him to teach you! Even if some of your essays may be graded low, there is plenty of room for improvement! Stay positive :-)
His lectures are all over the place and quite difficult to follow and take notes during (especially for a first year class). His marking was unclear and inconsistent-- I couldn't see the difference between a paper that merited a n A vs a C. The selection of poetry was interesting enough, but not organized during the semester in any meaningful way.
I love him. I always go to his office hours and asking him how to write properly. He loves changing voice, which makes me love his class! He is not an easy marker but you can go see him before submitting the assignment. He is not strict with due date as long as you do the homework. Quizzes are not easy but prepare u well for the final. Recommended!
He's a funny guy, he is not old school at all so you wouldn't get bored in his class. I made the mistake to not buy the book, although he uses it a lot so it's a must have. He helps with the assignment and gives a chance for a redo. I highly recommend it to everybody. Grammar classes are supposed to boring, he does a pretty good job changing that.
Incredibly Tough grader and way to demanding for an intro class A lot of people are confused and frustrated. A lot of people are failing I wish I never took this class Ruined my GPA
Funny guy and very interesting lectures but most people in the class who's major isn't in the humanities struggled. Philosophy is like learning a new language and to get a good grade you must fully grasp the ideas and write about them clearly. However, he is very helpful during office hours and will walk you through how to organize your essays.
Funny and helpful! I improved a lot.
Assignments are a joke but oh my god is he boring! How can you make sci fi boring?! If you can get past that and focus, he tells you exactly how to write a good paper and what's important in the readings.
Lots of reading--but the assignments were short, just 3 papers, so it could've been easy to not read anything and just write the papers. Lectures were optional. Nice guy.
He is a good teacher but make sure you know exactly what he wants for assignment and paper as he is a tough grader if what you wrote is not what he wanted.
okay teacher, not bad not good. IF u work hard you can get the A
Mr. Rozahegy was awesome. I very much enjoyed his philosophy course on death and the phrase he uttered on the first day of class when explaining why he left science to study philosophy still resonates with me; "I cannot express the world in numbers." The material is a bit difficult but worth it if philosophy interests you. Would take again.
Prof. Rozahegy isnt perfect, but hes very human and I appreciate that. we looked at the texts through one general lens throughout the semester; it really drove home the concept of technology as a system, and has changed the way i think. what more could you ask for in a class 3 papers, might be hard if philosophy isnt something you grasp easily.
Professor Rozahegy is the most patient, helpful professor I ever had. He responds to his email and is willing to take a look at your work before you submit the final version. He is very clear with what he expects for essays. I personally enjoyed his classes, he has his own sense of humor which made typically boring English classes more bearable.
He is one of the best!
Mark is great! He grades you on three small essays and that's it (on your choice of books!) His lectures can sometimes be a little dry, but overall he is there to help you. I'm taking another one of his classes this semester! Great guy.
I took Environmental Ethics as an elective and honestly if you are not interested in phil/reading, this class is relatively hard. Not an easy A. He scribbles some notes on the board but cant read his handwriting and mostly useless (wont help for the paper) Tought grader (im rather good in essay but did not receive a good mark bc i don like phil
I took PHIL 236 Environmental Ethics. It was the best course I've ever taken in my life! If you are interested in environmental issues, take this course! You probably won't get an A but a totally changed worldview. It is incredibly refreshing, coming from business taking a phil course. It is insane how impactful this course was on my way of life.<3
Professor Rozahegy is a solid prof. If you are interested in literary analysis and some soft philosophy, this course is for you. Aside from being an understanding and compassionate human being, he is an extremely fair grader. Work smart, not hard. Do the important readings, listen to lectures for general ideas. Ideal elective class
Mark doesn't use powerpoint for his lectures and he can make some weird jokes, but I thought his lectures were clear and that he was funny! There were no tests, only essays, and if you went to see him with your essay draft during his office hours he was glad to tell me what I needed to change. I'd take him again! Very in touch with his students.
Mr. Rozahegy is a really cool guy who tries to make sometimes boring topics as interesting as they possibly can be at 8:45am. Grading consisted of 3 short essays that were based on the books we had to read for class. If you don't like to read this is not the class for you. If you do, this class is an easy A.
Rozahegy is friendly and has good energy, more philosophy prof than english prof. He's very smart but his lectures are hard to follow, he's all over the place and his board notes are not comprehensible. Wish he would give more expectations for paper because its not clear, hard to get a good mark. Would take again now i know how how he teaches
Dr. Rozahegy was simply my favourite English teacher in university. He gives good advice, as well as clear criteria for the assignments. He gives good lectures and is not afraid of telling jokes and of going off on tangents. 10/10 would recommend.
Mark is a great professor. The papers were a bit difficult for me as I had never taken a philosophy course before, but he gives great feedback! You won't be marked down if you don't attend class, but I recommend you go as his lectures often made the material much easier to understand. 10/10 would take a course of his again!
I loved Mark's Philosophical Lit class! His lectures can seem a litttle all-over-the-place at first because of his messy handwriting, but if you follow his thread he does a great job of explaining difficult sections as well as larger ideas. Do the readings, come to class prepared, & ask questions if you're lost. Really helpful, DTE, funny.
One of the best teacher I had in university. Amazing!
He is very nice and helps a lot. For example,
Mark is a great professor. There were weekly quizzes but they are open book and he stays on Zoom to answer any questions (and he is probably too lenient about it, but I'm not complaining). He really cares about helping you succeed. He also was very clear that we didn't need to participate on Zoom if we didn't want to
Professor Rozahegy is a great professor. I really enjoyed his course. He's very caring and his lectures are hilarious! He cares a lot about his students and gives very good feedback. If you don't understand something, he's always willing to help outside of class.
Very knowleadgeable, explains complex concepts in a clear manner. Also, he's one of the sweetest profs I've ever had, very approachable and happy to help :)
Loved his style. Very approachable and understanding
Great professor! Lectures are clear and evaluations are fairly simple. He's a super nice guy who cares about his students, always available to answer questions via email if something is unclear. Definitely would take one of his classes again!
He always tried to engage the class :) By attending his class, you will be prepared for his quizzes and the final exam. Overall, he is a great professor !!
He's the WORST!! Overcomplicates lectures to seem more educated. Repeats the same stuff over and over but if you write that on the assignments, he'll fail you saying he wants you to write something new. Very boring lectures you'll fall asleep and even if miraculously you stayed awake, then you won't have learned anything. AVOID!
Very dull and pedantic, but that's what you get when you take a grammar class. The textbook is easily found online, as are the quiz answers (but they're locked behind a paywall and I'm cheap, so I just passed the normal way.) Thankfully, attendance is not required outside of crappy group projects. Study the book, study the slides, you'll be fine.
Loved him for this class, his lectures can be hard to follow because he kind of just goes with the flow but I like it much more than someone reading from slides
Prof. Rozahegy is kind and cares about what he teaches, but the reading load is overwhelming. Some books are over 400 pages, making it hard to keep up with other classes. Lectures are unfortunately quite dull, which is disappointing given how important the material is.

Mark is actually my goat. He is so hilarious and really cares about your success as a student. Showed up to office hours really stressed and he gave me a bunch of information on the quiz and helped me directly. Super funny and easy going guy. 10/10
