Excellent teacher! Really makes history come alive. Even has background music as he teaches! Learned SO much from him. For once history wasn't a complete bore. Hope he ends up teaching 112. Would highly, highly recommend.
Great teacher, would highly recommend. He will help anyone all they have to do is ask. Even if you're not interested in history he doesn't hold it against you.
EXCELLENT hiSTORY teller. Never did I find time that was dull and boring. He makes history VERY interesting. I learned and enjoyed at the same time. I am SO looking forward of having him for my HIST 112 class. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Register for his class!
Best teacher i have ever had, he made the class so interesting. He's so enthusiastic and funny, super glad i took his class.
Best professor ever. He was so helpful and his lectures are awesome, he tells history like a story. I took the class short term and even then the homework was easy. I loved the class!
This teacher is great! He makes every lesson an interesting story and very enthusiastic. Professor Felix made me want to come to class everyday so that I would no miss the next story. I would recommend him to anyone whether a history major or not.
PROFESSOR FELIX WILL HELP YOU THROUGH OUT THE SEMESTER. HE IS VERY COMPASSIONATE IN TEACHING HISTORY. HE GIVES A LOT OF EXTRA CREDITS AND HE HELPS HIS CLASS TO GET A+ AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE (TAKE ADVANTAGE OF HIM IN EVERY POSSIBLE WAY HE WOULD GLADLY HELP YOU) HE WOULD EVEN LOWER HIS STANDARDS FOR THE PEOPLE WHOSE ENGLISH AS THEIR SECOND LANGUAGE.
HE IS THE ONLY HISTORY TEACHER YOU NEED.
He is an amazing teacher! You will learn a lot from his class. He tells all his lectures like a story and adds music to make everything interesting. One of the best professors I took. Only one or two online quizzes on black board a final which he gives all the questions in advance. I highly recommend taking him, easy A (no excuses).
He is honestly the best professor I have had at COC. Felix's lectures are hilarious, interesting, and he just makes history come alive. Not to mention it is the easiest A you will ever receive. So glad I took this class- please, please take him. I wish all history teachers were like him.
literally best teacher ive ever had, so enthusiastic and helpful.
the most energetic hilarious teacher i have ever had. he truly has a passion for teaching. one online 25 question test. 2 easy essay projects. easy homework assignments that allow as much extra credit as you want to put in. no midterm. i never did good in history, but he makes it easy to understand.
He's the best story teller. He's animated, and humorous. Changes his voice to imitate the character in his story. It's like your watching a play. He offers a lot of extra credit, and tells you exactly what he wants in his assignmentstestsquizzesessay. Very helpful! Note; he doesn't like it if you walk out during his lectures.
He tells history in a story which is cool.. Pretty rough taking an 8am history class when it is dark in the classroomhe plays classical music trying to pay attention. Barely any work at all so if you miss class and he hands out an assignment.. Good luck.. But he offers alot of extra credit.. 2 exams which are online.. EASY CLASS!!!!!!
My favorite professor by far. He is so passionate about what he teaches. His lectures are so interesting that I've probably learned the most in his classes more than any other classes. Communicates well with the students. If I could take every history class with this professor, I would. I HIGHLY recommend this teacher.
Never would've thought that I'd be saying this, but a semester in Professor Felix's class honestly changed me! He is incredibly passionate about the subject he teaches, and I recall leaving his class a few times moved to tears, feeling inspired to not just be a dreamer, but also a DOER. Amazing! HE PLAYS SOUNDTRACKS AS HE TEACHES!! BEST! MISS HIM!
Prof. Felix was amazing. I got so into history because of him. I am so glad I took him. There was a lot of homework, but I took the 6 week summer class, so that was expected. I highly recommend him.
He's really funny and truly a nice guy. His lectures are interesting and will make you laugh. He goes over such detail you really don't need the book, unless you miss a lot of classes. Teaches what he is passionate about and clearly conveys it with his funny voices. It's like listening to bed time stories!
Professor Felix is the best teacher I have ever had! I hate history, but he made it so fun! He gives a lot of extra credit opportunities at the end of the semester. I received 30 easy extra points! He is great! I very highly recommend!!
Great professor, very cinematic and interesting lectures. Honors course he gives way too many assignments though, most of my honors classes only assigned 2 essays, and one project total. However, he makes his class very interesting and assigns much extra credit. Make sure your classmates show up, or he will get angry. Online tests except final. 55
This is the best teacher I've ever had at college of the canyons. I have never learned more in any other class. He makes class so interesting by playing music to the theme of his stories and the best part the different accents he makes. I think he should have really been an actor comedian. Although he is fun be ready 2 read and work for your grade
Professor Felix is possibly the BEST professor I've ever had in my entire life. I mean it. He's amazingly passionate about what he teaches and is SO sincerely concerned with making sure each student gets the material and EXPERIENCES it as if it's alive and you're there. He's INCREDIBLY inspiring. Don't even bother taking it with anyone else. DO IT.
gives good lectures and nothing more than lectures. that is the class sum up in a few words
Great classroom presentation, awesome lectures. Really puts in work to make it an enjoyable tale rather than a historian groaning through his pages of facts and bullet points.
On the last day i told him "thank you professor, now i actually like history" he is AMAZING. he plays music to keep you interested and tells the stories of Americas history like a pro. you'll laugh, cry, cry, oh and cry. TAKE HIM!
Mr. Felix is an amazing teacher and has a great personality. I did learn a lot in his class (US History). The Best Teacher I Ever Had. The best teacher that teaches from the heart.
Great professor. His lectures are very interesting and engaging, even when the topics are sort of boring. He tells a story and is really passionate whenever he lectures.
A very animated, passionate, and hilarious professor who storytells his lessons with music playing in the background. Provides study guides that are essential to passing tests if you slack off on the reading. Highly recommend!
Really awesome teacher! Made History 101 interesting & you can tell he's passionate about everything he talks about. Uses different voices for different time periods (not always accurate but HILARIOUS) and quite the comedian. We had a few discussion boards, one essay that we had a month to do, and about 3 exams. All easy if you paid attention.
He uses dim lighting and soundtrack music to accompany his lectures! He's passionate about what he teachers and makes the content interesting and relatable!
I enjoyed Professor Felix's class. He is a very reasonable grader and gives good lectures. Professor Felix is a really passionate, good guy who loves his job. If you complete the homework and take advantage of the study guides, you'll do well in his class.
Professor Felix's Class was amazing. Lectures were both informative and funny. All Tests are online, and they are THE SAME as the study guide he gives you. Use lectures and the book, maybe study group with a few friends. it will help, cuz you have the study guide, u have the test. Overall, prob one of the easiest teachers. Other assignments easy A
His lectures are amazing and I actually retained the information. There are a few tests, but they all have study guides that have the same questions as the tests (which are all online). Even the final; it is in class but he gives us a study guide and let's us make a cheat sheet. Amazing teacher.
He doesn't give lectures, he tells stories. It's not the typical spill your brains out boring, he really likes to engage the class. He plays music during his lecture to set the mood and does voices for the people he quotes! Tests are online. Fair amount of homework. I had him for my 111H class and I had to take him again! Highly recommend!
He is an amazing teacher who truly cares about his students. His lectures are not boring at all, especially if you have no interest in history like me. His tests are not hard as long as you do the study guides that he provides. He is always there to help you whenever you need him, and he is always in his office hours ready to provide help.
Great teacher probably one of my favorites at COC. Makes lectures fun and incredibly interesting that I felt I didn't even have to study for the exams and final because I already remembered most of the stories and lectures he gave. Very funny and made class a good time every day. Easy A if you do the homework and study a little for the test.
Professor Feliz is such a great professor. His lectures are never boring & actually gets you into it even when u have no interest in history like myself. His tests are online & gives a study guide which are very helpful. Keep up with the assignments & you should be good
great lectures and enjoyable but his comments on my personal work in discussion boards were far too aggressive. I'm all for constructive criticism, but writing three passive aggressive paragraphs on a ten point assignment is a little much.
Felix is the best professor I've ever had at COC. His lectures are very entertaining and interesting. He is the reason I decided to major in History. I would highly recommend taking him.
Prof. Felix was an awesome teacher, I love that he tells stories instead of lecturing. He is also funny. I was able to remember everything leading up to the final.
This was my first college course & I took it over the summer. Although it was only 5 weeks, Professor Felix covered the information very well and I easily understood everything. We had online activities for homework, a few write-ups, and then weekly tests (which he provides study guides for). Professor Felix was an excellent teacher!!!
This teacher was absolutely amazing! I met with him after classes and he was very helpful in helping me achieve my grade of a A. Not only that but i got a 96.9% in the class. All study guides he gave us were the exact questions on the test. As long as you did the study guide correctly, they were useful as you could use them on the tests.
The study guides are great, and the tests resemble them. He is very passionate about history and it clearly shows in his lectures. Just don't fall asleep or not pay attention (which I don't know how anyone could) I loved his class!
Professor Felix is the easiest professor ever. His tests are so easy if you just read the book. The questions appear the same as the study guide and lets you copy and paste answers for written exam. I wish I took him for history 111 but did not think of it. Would take him again for another history course if I had too. Willing to help at any time.
Plays classical music while lecturing & lectures are phenomenal. However, you are NOT allowed to use a laptop to take notes. I received an A, but this class is not an easy A. Class is based on a points total, so missing even one assignment will impact your grade. Responds quickly to emails. Lastly, don't be afraid to use office hrs for exam help.
He was hands down the best teacher I've ever had. His lectures were so inspiring and so interesting, I almost changed my major to History. I was excited to go to class every day because I learned so much. I enjoyed taking notes during his class. On the last day I remember thanking him for all his amazing lectures and I got teary-eyed. 10/10 man.
I usually don't like History at all, I'm more of a math/science person. But this professor is probably the best teacher I have ever met. Many months after the class, everything I learnt is still sticking, unlike my other classes. His lectures are like watching a movie, background music and everything. I wish I could take his class again!!!
professor Felix is a gem at coc. the first day of history 112 he scared me I almost dropped the class but after he cools off. its a scare tactic I believe. anyways his lectures are amazing!!!!
This man is the best. I'm a history major and have taken too many history classes to count; he still beats all of my other professors. He's hilarious, and his lectures seem more like a theatrical performance than an actual lecture.
Definitely recommend
Awesome Professor! He creatively teaches History and the information is very true, this makes it both fun and memorable. The quizzes are online and the website he uses makes it easier on the student with memory problems. Very funny and straight forward.
One of the best professors available at COC. His lectures are not some boring slide after slide things. He teaches as if you were watching a documentary on the History Channel. He keeps you entertained the whole class period and makes history fun. I have always hated history yet his class is very educational and I always looked forward to his class
Such an amazing professor! I loved his class
BEST PROFESSOR IN THE WORLD! I have never met someone so dedicated to teaching this course! You learn so much from his class and I hate history, but his work is very inspirational,uplifting, and hilarious. The homework is very simple and you will have to read but the book is not boring. 1 major project but a fun class overall.
LOVED HIS CLASS!! he seemed really intimidating on the first day but once you get to know him hes really funny! he explains history like a story and the background music he uses just makes the vibes so much more enjoyable. truly if you do all the assignments and take notes, guaranteed A!
Prof. Felix gives fun & interesting assignments. Make sure to complete all assgn. on time & u will do well. Discussion engagement online is paramount. He encourages u to comment on forums as much as possible. If you take his course seriously from the beginning he will give u great feedback & work with you if your strugg. I would def. take again!
The reading is somewhat challenging, but his class is very simple. You do the same 3 assignments each week which can be very easy if you use notes. And he is also a very good person, I had a problem with my textbook and he worked very hard with the staff of the book to find out what and why the problem was happening.
Professor Felix is by far the best history professor I've ever had. He makes his lectures incredibly fun and interesting with his sarcastic humor and, not to mention, the hilarious different voices he uses to act out historical events. His class is an easy A as long as you keep track of online assignments and maintain your attendance.
Make this man head of the history dept! I had the current history department head for another class, and he is not very cash money. In fact, I'd say that his class had a bank balance of negative cash money. However, Felix's class was FIRE. I'm talking LIT like COAL covered in GAS. Straight FACTS! Helpful and educational, that's Felix for ya! ;)
I would not recommend this class online. YOU WILL BE TEACHING YOURSELF. He has no office hours, no lecture videos, NOTHING. He basically gives you questions to answer but grades you harshly for a subject he isn't teaching. All have to say is that there are better options for history professors.
This professor changed my life & my views on America. He is so passionate about what he teaches as he puts bg music as he tells stories (he hates calling them lectures). He inspires & may b intimidating but that's only bc there are ppl who take advantage. You will only get this in person as online it's not the same tbh which is understandable
Professor Felix is the most demeaning professor I have ever experienced. The way that he provides feedback to his students should be reviewed and assessed. I understand wanting to help by means of pointing out what is wrong in a post, but maybe find a nicer way to do it then simply telling your student in few words that they are incompetent.
He is not the most demeaning professor. The way he provides feedback to students was in fact reviewed and assessed and he was found to be professional. He never called or insinuated that anyone was incompetent. Any who say otherwise are just disgruntled over their own inability to follow directions and use a spell check.
I really enjoyed this winter online class. You get to work at your own pace and have the opportunity to interpret work in a fun way. If you care about history and school, I'm sure you'll get a great grade. I had issues with my textbook but this professor was very helpful. Buy the book from the publisher along with "Inquizitive", not Amazon!! :)
Professor Felix provided a clear and concise setup for success in his course, as well as good and constructive feedback on the reflection assignments. As long as you read the textbook it's easy to pass this course.
Professor Felix provided a great winter course. The material was easy to understand and we were allowed to go at our own pace. I really enjoyed the class.
I just wanted to say that I took Professor Felix in Spring 2021 and it was amazing. There is quite a bit of work assigned but he gave us assigned due dates and time clearly defining when something was due. He would send reminders and help us correct our grades on a website we did work on which was hard at first but you have to pay close attention.
Felix is an amazing instructor and always want to help his student to succeed if you want to. He gave excellent study guides and the exam questions is same as the study guide. The class is extremely easy if you JUST FOLLOW HIS INSTRUCTIONS Anyone who gets less than a B in his class is just very lazy. He gives feedback! Take him you wont regret it!
Really loved Felix's course. Felt that I actually learned history. He has very clear grading criteria and assignments are easy to understand. The HW website is only $20 too :) Take him for sure !!!!!
Great teacher! Have to buy the textbook and online quiz program but its like 30 with the link he provides. Basically just reading, pre-quiz, quiz then discussions and document reflections. Took short term so it was two chapters a week, Can get it done in one day which was nice! Very specific on what he wants. Only can take quiz once so be prepared
Professor Felix is a great history instructor because he doesn't stick with a textbook he provides historical documents with different viewpoints from same era that each chapter is on. These documents make history come alive and gives students an insight into world of the people who lived in different eras. His class makes the history engaging.
I took women's history with this prof but it isnt an option on here. The stuff is interesting, he offers good feedback and gives ample time to get his assignments done and is willing to help. Sometimes the assignments made me want to bang my head on a wall - beware buying an extra $40 text book and the 600pt quizzes that are included!
Very light work with his History 111 course all of it being online. Gave plenty of time to complete assignments,being submitted the end of the weeks at your own pace and is a generous grader.
Extremely grateful and appreciative of this professor. Helped me pass class and gave me another chance on a quiz to help my future. Extremely knowledgeable lessons and education on history and life taught. So blessed. Thank you!
Professor Felix was a great mentor for HIST111. His rules/grading is clear and prepared from the start. His feedback on small written assignments felt very encouraging and it felt good to know that he took the time to read your assignment. Just follow the assignments for each week and this class will be easy and smooth. (Everything is open note!)
Prof. Felix is the best. His lectures which he calls story time are amazing. He basically makes his lectures into a show of sorts and has background music while he is telling the story. The lectures are engaging, and hilarious. He doesn't give too much work and he grades fairly. If you want to genuinely learn history take this guy he is amazing.
Professor Felix was an amazing professor! He was very understanding and made history so much fun. I recommend him if you need to take a history course.
I found Professor Felix to be one of the most professional teachers I have ever had. He starts every class by letting everyone know what is coming up for the next week. His lectures presented just like stories; they are interesting, and he often covered neglected but important events, which many students, including myself, very much appreciated.
I personally loved this class. Although I usually don't like long lectures he makes them story like so it's not just boring notes. There is rarely any homework and if there is it is very easy. He offers extra credit opportunities + tests are online! Not to mention he is so understanding. Literally the perfect professor. Taking him again this sem!!
I took his western civ. Lowkey it was pretty good. Just make sure you come to class or else you will fail because your life needs those notes. His class was very interesting, I'll take again for sure.
I absolutely loved Mr.Felix and his course.. absolutely recommend him as a professor. His class is amazing; He's telling history and it's like listening to a story. Work load is super manageable too; He's understanding and forgiving.. he also offered lots of extra credit. Very passionate and an amazing professor.
If you are a history major or need history take this guy. He makes history fun, his lectures are literally a play. He does not assign much work, the biggest assignment was to read a book and take an exam on it. His exams are easy the study guides are the test minus the answers. Show up to class, do the work, you will get an A with hardly any effort
Professor Felix was an amazing professor, I just took his Western Civilizations class, and my experience was great. Professor Felix really makes his stories interesting and fun to listen to. He is very understanding and his workload is easy. Just make sure you come to class, since attendance is mandatory, 100% would retake again.
Professor Felix was awesome. I can't lie after the first class I had no idea what to expect. I haven't ever had a class like his before, but his lectures are so cool. I feel like I really learned the material over the course of the 16 weeks. Take him take him take him. Such an awesome guy. If you show an interest he will show interest back.
Professor Felix is amazing. He's a great lecturer and doesn't assign too much homework outside of weekly reading. He covers stuff that isn't in the textbook sometimes which is why it's important to go to class. He gives clear insight into the subject matter and stands on the correct side of history. Take his class if you want to truly learn.
Attendance is mandatory for this class if you want to pass. He will drop you from the class if you miss three classes or more and states it in the syllabus. In this class, his lectures start at the beginning of the class and continue until the last minute. Besides, most of the work is online and easy to complete, but he requires you to be in class.
I had him for history 101 and 111, and honestly he was really good. i have always been afraid to ask questions but he reassures you and welcomes any questions you may have about his stories. He's a really chill guy and you can tell he loves his job. Take him!
Professor Felix is the BEST professor I've ever had. His lectures are mesmerizing and very story like with background music and you learn so much good detail about history. He's a funny dude and wants to you succeed. He's an easy grader and attendance is important for you won't miss anything. I definitely recommend Prof Felix to everyone!
Amazing, he stresses you to just listen and not take notes (not needed) i took notes anyways just because i can't listen for 90 mins straight. If you mess up on an assignment just ask if you can tweak it and turn it in again 9/10 he will let you, exams are honor system on canvas, all around the best prof for this subject, don't take anyone else.
Wow. Professor Felix knows how to keep students engaged. Each lecture was a "story" of the past as he likes to call it. Dramatic music, and enticing speeches were Professor Felix's specialties. It is obvious he loves history, and he truly admires the art of teaching. His tests are open note/study guide! TAKE HIM!!
He's the best professor I had during my time at college. You do have to show up, but it never felt like I was forced to, rather something I got to do. Probably the only class I've felt this way about. His lectures are framed as stories, and really well-told ones at that. He also takes notes on questions he couldn't answer for next class.
This professor gives a lot of homework. Each assignment takes over 30 min and there's over 6 a week. Also even if you use grammerly for discussion posts you'll be flagged for ai generated. Have fun wasting your time in this class if you want this. :)
He made history one of the most interesting classes I've taken. You can tell he truly enjoys teaching and wants students to succeed. He's also fair with grading, and his tests are very manageable if you use the study guide. Highly recommend taking his class!
Professor Felix is one of the most engaging teachers I've had. His lectures feel like historical stories, complete with music and great detail. He's funny, fair, and wants you to succeed. Attendance matters—you don't want to miss a class. Highly recommend taking him!
Professor Felix was a great for online HIST111. His grading and rules are clear from the start, and his feedback on assignments is thoughtful and encouraging. As long as you keep up with the weekly work, the class is smooth and manageable. Bonus: everything is open note!
Professor Felix can seem intimidating at first because his syllabus and assignment instructions are firm, but his instructions are very clear and detailed. but the assignments are actually very easy, mostly uses inquisitive. If you email him with a problem he is actually very lenient and willing to help.
Very easy online class, he only does assignments through inquisitive which is almost like a game. you just read the textbook and answer questions as you go and you just have to answer until you get enough points to get an A on the assignment.
The class really make you think.
you won't regret enrolling
Take this class. You learn more than just History. Its about life.
The greatest to ever do it
This professor is rude. He overly critics works and will not give full credit if you get even one small piece of information wrong.
Mr. Felix's lectures are genuinely interesting to listen to, and you can tell he's compassionate about teaching. He's also very understanding about late work and very easy to work with. 10/10 Coc College professor
Decent Online class. Mr. Felix's curriculum wasn't difficult but tedious. Always 2-4 assignments a week always including the chapter quiz and inquizitive (which is your textbook that cost around $50 so be aware of that!). Generally, all you have to do is keep up with assignments for a easy A and follow his guidelines for DB. Emails back quickly.
Engaging, and creates dramatic performances for his lectures including music and accents. Can be demeaning and treats students like children (see his responses to bad reviews). Opens the floor for questions, but doesn't research contextual information on his lecture topics and typically doesn't have answers. Clear assignments, mandatory attendance.
My favorite professor at coc! He's so passionate and my friends who had no previous interest in history, loved his class as well. I 100% recommend his in person courses.
Passionate storytelling made these lectures fascinating. I took both his in-person and online class at the same time, and both were wonderful. Though sometimes he has opinions or doesn't know the answers, he's honest about both. Cares about history. I looked forward to every class.
