Professor Zindelo is kindness and empathy personified. I attended his English Composition I class. He breaks the essays down into simple parts and explains everything very well. He offers many extra credit opportunities and tries his best to give you an A. I seriously recommend Professor Zindelo to everyone.
Mark Schneberger Zindelo was a great teacher. I was lucky he was my teacher. You can find a lot about him under Mark Schneberger as he has two last names Schneberger Zindelo
easy grading on your essay and very helpful
He is an AMAZING teacher! He is always willing to help his students, and he even send his notes each day through school e-mail. He is also very generous give students second chance to revise their papers.
Professor Zindelo is one of the best professors I've ever had. I'd take his class again or any other class he teaches.
Mr. Markus is the best teacher I had for English Multicultural Comp I. I just graduated high school and he has changed my writing and view about college life. He is always there for you and give you advise and chances to improve my paper as well as my writing so I can make the best grade as possible. 1010. Teachers should follow his teaching ways.
What a great professor. Very lenient, very easy class, and he's super understanding. States that he is there to help you, and he really is. If you do the work, you'll pass. He even warns you about mean professors and what classes to take or to not take! Don't buy the textbook for this class. He'll tell you how to get around it.
Professor Z is awesome!! He listens to you and tries to help you with your needs! He is a grade A teacher. If you have any questions or problems don't be afraid to ask him. He is very outgoing and he may have adhd but I have adhd so I think that's why we get along. I recommend him to anyone that needs to take English classes.
Professor Zindelo is such a great one. He is so nice, kind, awesome with great teaching techniques. In his class you always feel relax and eager to learn.
He's a great professor. He's there to help you when you need it. I would def take him again!

The best English teacher.
Great professor! Responds to email quickly, gives additional time if you contact him to explain your situation, and will let you re-do or add-to a project if you it does not meet the criteria he is looking for. He gives you plenty of work for it being an online class, but gives you a lot of time to get it all completed. Highly recommend his class
Zindelo is a laid-back professor. Taking his English comp, you will have more time with other class. He almost doesn't make student write something in class to earn GPA. If you are not finished, you can take home. . If you are stuck at homework, just talk with him. At first I didn't know what to what to write, but he inspire me with his lecture.
Best professor at OCCC. I sent an email said that the homework is very hard. The next day he changed a homework into extra credit. He is understanding that students are busy. He even do not give homework during holiday. What an amazing teacher! I wish all of professor in OCCC were like him. He is so dedicated .
Get ready to help students. Afraid of writing you should take this class. Getting stuck with homework, he may give you some advice or give you more time to do it. Even if you can't complete your homework due to other course's test, he still gives you time for this. He's not a good teacher, but the best teacher in OCCC. I wish my professor like him
Professor Zindelo makes the Writing class so interesting and creative. He may be the only professor who thanks you for asking a question and replies your email with a smiling emotion. He helps my semester reduce burden. He understands students if they have a test or tight schedule. Other english class is stressful, but his class is not
Professor Zindelo is always to help you although he may have many works in his office. He is very welcome the students come to his office to ask about the essay
Zindelo is the best teacher ever! Seriously great person. Genuinely loves his students and wants us to be able to be prepared and have the proper writing skills. Always helped me when I was stuck. He always emails back quickly and is always there to help. I loved his class and I would love to have him as a teacher again in the future!
He's a great professor
Now, I haven't had all the professors at OCCC, but I'm going to venture to believe that Markus is the greatest -- great person and teaching. He is really chill about the class, but he also makes sure you understand the material. If nothing else look at his rating on here ... 5.0. He's a must take professor.
Great prof! He doesn't give student grade. He makes students have the grade students want through his lectures. When you ask question, you will never become stupid. Extra credits are a lot. Readily to help students in the office hour. Prof is very good when he finds the reading materials for assignments online for students.
Prof is very good. He makes my fear of writing go away. Afraid of writing just take this class. He makes me so creative and inspirational when writing. . He also helps me with other writing homework of other professors. Just amazing professor! He makes writing in the easy way to understand.
Comp2 is hard but Prof teaches in the easy way to understand. He made exercises to students before going straight the hard essay. Highly recommended his class for any one with 12-credit because he gave enough time for students to complete their assignments.
He looks like a magician and makes you write so that at the end of the semester you haven't realized how long had written. Understanding that students have many class from others so he makes his class less stress. In comp 2, you have to take his class because comp 2 is hard. He warned us about plagiarism. Make sure don't copy, you'll be fine.
Make you love writing more than ever. Just don't ever commit plagiarism. Submit homework on time. Don't ever make him angry because when he's angry, he doesn't show up and you'll feel goosebumps. He'll be happy if you ask question on homework
excellent professor
Best professor in the entire world. Not only does he teach so well, he is a good, caring person which the world needs more of. I learned so much from him. Literally, he's the best!
He's an awesome Professor about English Comp 1 and 2. He's funny, nice and very very easy to got A.
Great professor. Would definitely take him again
He is the best Prof in English major I have ever had. If you submit your assignment earlier than the due date: you have extra credit If you have any question, raise your hands and he will answers all your enquiries respectfully and clearly. He also allows you to fix your essay once you have submitted if you want to improve your grade.
Prof. Zindelo was a good professor, and I would take him again. In complete honesty, I learned nothing whatsoever and the class required little to no effort. But it was a super easy A and I'm only taking it for the credit, so I'm not complaining.
Professor Zindelo is not easy. He makes us work hard and earn our grades. We write very long papers and do a lot of essays. We have to write multiple drafts, and he's a hard grader. He's super nice and easy to work with. I am going to take all his classes because he improved my writing skills immensely.
I can't say enough good things about Professor Zindelo. You have every opportunity to get an A. If you can't get a good grade in his class you need to rethink your work habits. He is very supportive and lenient when it comes to the essays. He walks you through each step of what he expects on essays.
Took this class last semester. He's literally the best professor i have ever had. Would definitely recommend him. Grade is really to earn since he gives you a second chance on any assignment that you might do bad on! I would give him a 6 out of 5 overall. GREAT teacher!
He is the best in the business. As a student I have been taught by so many teachers. But Mr. Zindelo is exceptional. He teaching ability is outstandig, Teacher, worthy of its name.
The absolute best professor I could have. I 100% recommend his english course. He quickly replies to emails, amazing teacher and is lenient and understanding. I have high respect for him. He genuinley cares for students and you will definitely get an A in this class if you do the work.
One of the best professors out there! Would recommend taking him 1000 percent. He understands you as a student and as a person.
Zindelo is a nice professor that gives good feedback and is intentional about replies.
Professor Zindelo is the best professor I have ever seen. High recommended
I took him for Audio Production and Public relations and he is the most caring professor I have ever had in my life. He wants you to succeed, he wants to help you. For Audio production, the final log is hard but manageable. For PR the final portfolios take a long time but he gives you time to revise them for better grade. AWESOME PERSON!!
Best teacher I have had in college would highly recommend trying to get him as your COMP teacher. I wanted him for both COMP 1/ 2, but when I found out I couldn't make it work I was so disappointed. BEST TEACHER!!!!! Also, he makes it's to where you don't have to buy the textbook, he finds the stories online and sends them so you don't buy a book!
Prof Z was a great professor for Audio production. He explained everything!. He turned me on to radio and podcast production and I got a job because of his teaching. He's really chill about redoing assignments. Says mistakes are how to learn. I wish I could have more classes with him. Really cares about his students.
I'm really glad I'm taking Zindelo for Intro to Mass Communications. He explains things well and makes it very interesting. Really opens my eyes to the media then and now
Easiest professor ever. All you have to do is show up to class and you get credit. The essays are pretty minimal. He also gives extra credit for showing up to "writing" days where all you do is write your essays. On top of easy assignments, he is very caring. I had his 8am class and he made sure everyone had breakfast by bringing snacks and drinks.
Zindelo is a great journalism professor. In three weeks he has me interviewing sources, writing in inverted pyramid style with many sources and covering important events. I even got to go to a murder trial this week. You gotta take him. I'm even going to get published next week never would get to do all this at OU
The best professor in the whole universe.
Zindelo is a great News Writing professor. His class is tough and he made us write about campus, cover a trial a speech and an open meeting. Also made us write for the school paper and get published. He's great cuz he also sat with each of us and helped us learn AP style and how to organize stories. I'm a PR major, but I might change my mind.
Prof Zindelo is the best Prof humanity has ever had. He is understanding, caring, and ready to support you achieve your goals. He is a teacher, a friend and a father. I got a good A because he can teach. Take his class and you won't regret nothing.
100% would take him again, to everyone, he is super nice and will help you until u get it
I took his mythology course for 8 weeks. He has a list of myths to read and a list of questions that align with those myths. You do need to do 2 discussion posts and 4 replies every week, as well as writing a paper on what you read. That being said, it is still relatively easy to get an A. Simply do the reading, the writing, and the posting.
Funny and caring with a warm personality. He enjoys hearing what we all have to say & he responds with questions. He creates a respectful atmosphere to where we all feel free to speak our minds about all types of topics. He presses us to think outside the box & to dig deeper into our minds/thoughts. I highly respect this man. Very intelligent.
He was very caring , he work with you , this profesor care about his student and will help you to get though it
Pof. Z is one of a kind. He really can take you from not knowing how to cover news to getting published in 8 weeks. I now have a job in journalism because of him. He makes you work a lot, but you get to redo your articles and learn from your mistakes.
I enjoyed taking this class. The textbook is online to be able to do the reading assignments. It is also for some of the assignments that tell you to use a specific chapter or pages to be able to complete the assignment. Gives great. feedback on assignments. Tells you what you did great on. and what you could improve on.
Mr. Z was my professor for News Writing. He's fantastic and a very challenging professor, but he's fair. His was my first journalism class, and I learned so much. I had to transfer out of state, but because of him I'm now working for student media at KU. Our adviser here said he taught me better than most juniors from their own program. Take Mr. Z
Professor Zindelo is so understanding and caring! I took him for Critical Thinking and I learned so much from him. You can easily pass with an A. Keep in mind you have to write long papers but overall, I'd take this class again!
I had heard only good things about him, and everything I heard is true. He's really great and caring and always there for you. I'm so glad I took him.
Preface: I am a graduate from UCO now. When I took his English Comp, I knew immediately that he actually cared about his students. He wasnt demanding, made sure we knew what we were doing, and was extremely relaxed. I left with a smile on my face every day. I dont remember names, but I will remember his. Thank you, Mr. Zindelo. Youre a gem!
Been out of school for 15 years, and was terrified of going back. Heard about professor Zindelo from some friends at chuch, and I feel like God's hand put me in his class. He's amazing, caring, understanding, funny, and he's always available. I've never met such a caring professor, and I will take any class he teaches.
Tough Grader and lacks good feedback. Other Comp II professors looked over my essays before I turned it in and said it looked great, but Zindelo graded me C's on every essay.
He was a really good professor and was always there. I could send him an email at almost any hour and he would reply within an hour. Gave great instructions in his feedback, and by following it, I earned As on all my work. OCCC is lucky he chose them to work at. I am lucky I had such a caring, kind, and available professor. Take him!
He was a great teacher and his videos and examples helped guide me through my essays and assignments. He would also reply fairly quickly to my emails and would always be willing to help me with any questions I had. I can tell he cares about his students and wants you to do well in his class. There is also extra credit given throughout the course.
Professor Zindelo genuinely cared about how much we learned and he did his best to help us succeed. Also, he brought snacks every so often.
Professor Z is the kind of professors others should learn from. Super caring and makes sure everyone "gets it" before moving on. He likes to say he's just a regular guy, but he's a miracle worker in English. I wish he would teach all my other classes.
Professor Zindelo is one of the best Professors at OCCC for English. He answers any question you might have he responds to emails right away! He gives good feedback and tries its best to help you achieve and get an A in the course. Would definitely take again.
Professor Zindelo really seemed to care about my success, not only in his class but in life. He was accommodating when you needed it, and he left time during class to do assignments. There were many opportunities to earn extra credit, which I appreciated. He brought snacks to class on occasion. He was also really funny.
Professor Zindelo is one of the worst professors at OCCC. His rubrics and lectures are not helpful whatsoever. He nitpicks everything yet provides surface-level feedback, making the class and assignments much harder. It is understandable to have certain expectations, but there is no visibility behind why his grading is so harsh.
He was very flexible and cared that we learned not just passed the class. Even brought snacks and drinks to make sure we ate. Had in class group projects that were simple and easy. Final was also easy, just keep up with book quizzes!Very interesting&useful class. Already signed up for another class with him. Great if adult student&need flexibility!
Professor Zindello is the best English teacher I ever had. He always told us exactly what to do for the essays and assignments. And he gave A TON of feedback on our drafts so we could make great grades on our final essays. Super caring and loves what he does. Get him for Comp I and II if you can; his classes are first to fill. Students love him.
I'm so glad I had Professor Zindelo. He was really patient and helped me improve my writing. My essay grades improved and I finished with a better grade than I expected.
I was really worried about taking an English class online, but Professor Zindello is really great so far. He's answered at least 11 emails sent over the weekend by me as well as gave me a lot of feedback on all my assignments. He has video lectures that go over exactly how to do the assignments, and if we have questions, he's there for us. Awesome!
Mr. Z is a great teacher for us. We are in high school, and he comes and teaches us and even comes every Friday just to meet us for tutoring. He goes out of his way to make sure we get the information we need for success in college. I was going to go to Langston, but because of him OCCC is where I'll go when I graduate.
He is a professor that actually cares about how you are doing outside of just getting your assignments done. He is the best professor I have ever had and really makes you feel comfortable in class, and will record Zoom videos if you cannot make it to class. He makes sure you succeed. BONUS: He brought us snacks every now and then!!
Professor Zindelo is a great instructor, but for a humanities class I felt that I was taking an English class. I fell behind in my other two classes just trying to keep up with all the assignments that he assigned in this class. I was taking another four credit class and did not feel overwhelmed like I did in this class.
He's a breath of fresh air. I never had an English teacher who makes us part of assigning due dates and that knows our names on day 2 of class. He's very clear with his directions and if you take him he'll tell you exactly what to do to get an A on each essay. He's nice and maybe too nice but for a student who's in my 30s, I need his compassion.
Just started his class. Hands down the easiest professor I've ever had to communicate with. I send him an email last night at 11 p.m., and he still answered fully. He's also great at giving good feedback on all my assignments this week and telling us exactly what we need to do to earn an A. He's the real deal. I'm glad my counselor recommended.
Mr. Zindelo has been a good professor during these two weeks. I'm in his mythology AND Eglish 2 class. He's always trying to help us out by being around, answering our questions WHENEVER we have them, and giving us a lot of good feedback. I think he's a keeper! Super kind, and has videos for all the assignments he makes each week for us.
This guy is great. Just watch his instructional videos, use all the feedback he gives, and ask for help when you need it. Its my first college class, and he's making everything so understandable for us. I don't think he stops working because I emailed him at 10 p.m. last night and he replied right away. You should take him.
Great professor. Took the time to help me understand the assignments and make sure I was doing the essays properly.
This guy should teach other professors how to teach. He's always clear, gives great feedback, has useful videos, and is really kind. He's always available. Does he ever not work? Take his class and make an A all the way. Zindelo is the MAN!
He's tough and fair. I'm a much better writer after taking his class. Was always there for us and always explained what the requirements were and looked at all our work before we turned in the final drafts. Gave excellent feedback. Easy to get an A if we just follow the outlines he provides and use his feedback.
Professor Z was very kind to us. He gave us a lot of extra credits. Also he looked at our rough draft papers and told us how to fix them so we would get good grades. I had some personal medical problem and he worked with me so much. He rounded up grades at the end so we could get the highest grade. He's great.
Me and all my friends in his class really like him. We are in high school and he comes to our school to teach us. Brings us snacks and takes us through all the assignments great. Even sits with us and looks at our work as we do it IRL. He's funny and really kind.
Professor Zindelo is very helpful to all of us. He has us write our essays one paragraph at a time so he can give feedback all the way. He takes a lot of care and effort to give us feedback on every assignment, and if we follow his feedback we always get As. This is my first class at OCCC, and I'm glad the advisors put me in his class. Five stars!
Professor Zindelo's class was pretty easy but just be aware to read and write. This class goes over a lot of ancient history but they class is do able and easy to understand
Professor Zindelo is a very kind and understanding professor. He taught my high school concurrent class. He was very understanding knowing we have multiple classes, and understood our possible difficulties dealing with high school classes plus college classes. I also believe he has inspired me greatly making me a more confident writer.
I really appreciate that he breaks things down for us step by step. He's really kind and he lets us redo assignments if we really bomb them. He takes his time and understands that we don't always get things the first time, and he's super chill and funny. His feedback has been great, too.
I'm taking his class right now this semester. He's so great and makes me believe in myself. He breaks everything down and takes us through each step so we can have success at the start middle and end. I learned more in two weeks than I ever did in high school.
Been out of school for 15 years. He's exactly what I needed in a professor. Now I'm enrolling my son in his class.
I learned so much from his class. He teaches us what we need to do well in English Composition II
I feel lucky to have gotten to take his class. I learned a lot.
He's a tough grader because he wants us to up our skills, but if you use his feedback on the rough drafts, you do great in the essays. Always available for help either in his office hours or through email. I've emailed him at least five times today and he's replied within an hour or two each time (often faster). He really cares about our success!
Avoid this professor. He kills any creativity or joy in writing. He will grade you poorly if you try to go beyond superficial analysis in your writing and will rip you apart if you even attempt to express your own writing style. The feedback he gives is minimal and unhelpful, and he forces you to turn off your brain and follow his rigid structure.
Best English teacher I've ever had. Literally walks us through each paragraph and lets us redo our work. I've never had a teacher who lets us set our own due dates as a class and who is so helpful in getting us to earn As. He isn't like most teachers who give you an A if you turn in something. He gets you ready for all of college writing.
If you want to pass by just turning in low-quality work and doing your own thing, Professor Z isn't for you. If you want to learn to write to be successful in all your college classes you have to take him. That's why he's the most popular and best. He's incredibly helpful and caring and gives tons of chances to do things right. Take him.
I've been out of school for 20 years and he was always there for me even in the evenings. There was no time he wouldn't help me understand how to do the assignments and essays. Gives excellent feedback and is very clear. I used what he taught me in my Govt class and got an A there too. Take him if you can.
Had him for Comp I, and he was a tough grader but gave us lots of chances to improve our work and good feedback. I'm so glad, because I had the hardest English II teacher and got As on every essay. She even asked who my teacher was and I said Zindelo. She said, “That's why I put all my three kids in his class. He's great.“
Great professor for anybody. He's the most caring and understanding teacher I've ever had.
Zindelo is exactly what I needed. Took his class 2 years ago, & his largest push was for us to be focused in our paragraphs. He said we make a promise w/ our reader when we state a point & we have to prove it -- like court. He pushed us to prove our points and not just write to fill space. I'm at OU and I'm getting As on all essays because of him.
I had the worst semester in my personal life, lost my job and miscarried. Professor Mark was so helpful and did everything possible to get it so I could pass the class. He's the most caring professor and gets it that sometimes life gets in the way and we all have struggles. Highly recommended and it's clear why he's the best.
Just finished a class w Professor Zindelo. I've never had a more organized and supportive teacher. I'm glad I took him in person because he has us write our essays paragraph by paragraph and
Great professor and very flexible. I think it was probably much more flexible in-person than online considering we could decide our due dates (within reasonable time, of course). He also gives a lot of feedback, and if you're not happy with a grade, you could resubmit them for a better one.
Just finished his mythology class. He's a great teacher. Great feedback on how to do the work right and good. Always available. Great Professor!
As an international student from Nepal, I really like this professor. I just finished his English class, and he was one of the most supportive teachers I've had. He is always available whenever I need help, and he explains everything clearly. His patience and kindness made the class comfortable, and I learned a lot. I truly appreciate him.
Easy great class, made English papers easy
Would recommend this professor, gives helpful and fast feedback.
tough grader, but he's willing to work with you, very understanding, & he makes it simple to understand, i recommend not missing a class though!
