Very helpful teacher. Grading is a little difficult and is sometimes unclear on what he wants. But will help you if you ask and will review assigned papers and give you tips on how to improve them if you come o him before the paper is due. Allows make up writings. Would take this teacher again.

awesome teacher. all we had were 4 essays through the whole quarter and one in class essay. The rest were participation points so if you come to class and pay attention you'll be fine :) oh and a few blackboard discussion questions. No final or midterm or quizzes :) LOVED it!! ;D

He is very nice and quite helpful while some of his help was unclear. He grades very hard for a 101 class. Unless you are very good at analyzing and writing I would go for someone else. I'm taking Ken Fox now and he is awesome.

This was one of my favorite classes! It was just so much fun! Obviously you have to read a lot.. Talking about literature, reading.. He is also a author himself which makes everything even more interesting!

his class was a little difficult but not hard at all. All of his homework assignments were easy and so were his in class writing assignments but his papers were harder. But if you AT LEAST follow the guidelines he tells you too, you will receive at least a C+. i would highly recommend him. people who had problems probably just didnt attend class.

Strict grading but he is an overall good professor. Isn't the strictest but isn't the most lenient either. I'd take him again, but if you want an easy A, he is definitely not the one to pick.

This is a very good teacher.He comes across hard, but it is for your best interest.To get an A we have to work for it,nothing is wrong with that,and awesome teacher I will take his class again.

Very good teacher

He is an awesome instructor; one who cares about his students. The very first day of class (and most subsequent days thereafter) he informs students that he is there to help; we just have to ask. The essays are not hard, they just require some brain usage. Overall, Mr. Huffman is wonderful. I would take him for any class.

Mr. Huffman is a fist class instructor that loves what he does. He is quite clear when explaining what you are expected to learn and goes over everything several times. This is a teacher that cares about you understanding the material and makes every effort to help when you need it. I highly recommend this instructor to anyone.

This guy is a great teacher, I learned more in his class than in any other class before. He says its next to impossible to get an A in his class, but I got one, and all I did was work as hard as I could, and give it my best shot. If you want to do well, you will. If you give up and don't try, YOU WILL FAIL. This is no easy class to pass.

Huffman is a good teacher. He is straight to the point! He is not super friendly but he knows what he is doing. If you need help ask you will get help. If your looking for a nice friendly teacher to hold your hand pass on this class. The workload is consistant but not too hard. He is a tough grader but for the most part its fair! Good luck

Very laid back cool guy. If you are looking for an easy A, this is not the class for you. He grades pretty tough for a 101 class. He is very helpful though if you ask. If you make an effort in the class and show up every day, you will pass with a reasonable grade. If you don't show up, you have no chance.

Was very helpful and took notes on the computer all class long. He emailed his notes to you after every single class. For a 101 class, he graded a bit harder, but he gave you examples of everything he expected. Was a very good teacher and kept it interesting. I will take him for 102 when I decide to do that.

Laid back chill instructor. Has essay responses 1 a week or so and tells you exactly what he wants (take some notes). Very helpful if you just ask. Only 2 papers the whole quarter, no final. Be sure to come to class to get the participation points. I'd definitely recommend him!

laid back, helped anytime i asked him about something,watched movies, and learned alot about filmmaking, you do have to work a bit for an A

You watch a lot of movies and write a lot of critical responses in terms of cinematography. The first few assignments were a little frustrating because I didn't know exactly what Mr. Huffman was looking for, but as soon as you figure out what he wants the class is completely easy. You also pick a favorite director and write a report on them.

Had him for an Intro to Film class. Very easy. Watched film and wrote papers responding to cinematic techniques critiqued by movie buffs on IMDB and whether or not we agreed on their opinion. Also worked with iPads and filmed our own movie. Final paper is a research paper on a director of your choice and why they are an auteur in their field.

Mr. Huffman is a very nice guy who expects a lot from his students. He grades tough, but hey, this is college people! I have taken his English 101 and HUM130 Intro to Film classes and I thoroughly enjoyed them both. Show up to class, do the assignments in college-level quality, and don't be afraid to ask questions!

If you do your work and attend class you will do fine, no problem. If you are looking for an easy class this isn't it. He's kinda intimidating but a great teacher. You definitely learn a lot.

One of the best teachers I have ever taken in my life. Gives very clear directions and feedback that will make you a better writer. All of his assignments make you think which makes it easier to get into. Not easy but if you work hard you will come out better.

Fairly easy. As long as you use a few quotes and make it sound like you do understand it by including terms and letting him know you at least read the material, then you"re good. You should only read the stuff pertaining to his questions. Hes a good teacher and knows his subject so its not THAT easy to get by by explaining yourself in short writing

Great instructor! Read The Omnivore's Dilemma throughout qtr, wrote essays every week based on book, two big papers, and a few other writing assignments. He is very thorough and helpful. Do the work, put in the effort and get that A! Highly recommend him as an instructor!

Definitely my favorite teacher thus far. He is clear about the assignments. He is well-versed in his field and experience makes the best teachers. Will definitely take a class from him again. I didn't find a lot of the comments here accurate. When he is speaking, it means you can learn something; whether it is about himself or not.

While he expects his students to be fully aware of how to properly use MLA and APA citation styles he does have the librarian come and give a refresher on APA before you final research paper. He is always willing to read over you papers before they are due and give you good feed back. Also allows in class editing days before final paper is due

It was def an interesting class. few reading responses and 3 major papers, that are super easy. missing class, only affects class work. you wont miss any assignments, however, miss too much days and its hard to catch up. he ALWAYS did a good job of emailing everyone the notes taken in class so you knew exactly what you were doing. awesome teacher!

Professor Huffman is very clear with what he expects out of papers and reading responses, in my English 101 class we had 3 papers and 13 reading responses for the quarter. He gave us an adequate amount of time to get each of our assignments done and gave good feed back. We used the book a LOT, it is needed for all of the assignments that he gives.

Professor Huffman is thorough and teaches well. He's fairly laid back & if you're there to learn he'll appreciate your effort. His feedback is helpful, & he's consistent through the quarter about his expectations. In 101, you will become acquainted with APA citations and format, and should you prove able to master those specifics, you'll do well.

He has so many poor reviews here, they are kind of fair but also don't let it stop you from taking his class. He's a tough grader for sure, makes student work harder on the paper and lots of expectations. Grading materials are very thorough, so you know what you need to be working on more, although he is a slow grader. Enjoyed his film class so far

He makes the literature seem intimidating, but he is fair with his grading. Most of the work I turned in had little to nothing to do with the reading material, but it was done correctly. I lost 1 point for being wrong or off topic. And by the end, I had more then enough info to write the final paper. I recommend Taking Engl 95 first.

There are a lot of readings but doing the response is easy for each is easy especially when you get the hang of it. He can be a tough grader but if you go into office hours, get constructive feedback, and apply what he wants you can get a good grade! You can miss a few days and be fine. He is strict on deadlines, but this is college.

I had him for three classes during my two years at TCC: English 101, English 102, and Intro to film. He can be a hard grader because he wants students to exceed their full potential. He doesn't have the laziness of most tenured professors. His assignments are creative. If you actually like English and are ready to put in the work, he's the your guy

He is a great teacher. Goes above and beyond if he sees you are willing to put in the effort. Gives vague feedback in class. It helps if you ask questions. I would suggest you ask questions after class or go to office hours if you are confused. He is more personable when not in lecture mode and will be able to better answer questions then.

Intense with the amount of writing. Do Not Slack Off! BUT because of his constant pushing to do better AND with feedback in the form of written and voice recorded, I am getting straight A's this quarter in humanities and sociology classes which are writing intensive. I see other students struggling and I am glad I took his English 101 class!

Prof Huffman was a great guy. On my final paper he helped me out substantially. Feedback is somewhat vague but hes easy to reach out to and helpful through email. Didnt give you a choice on final paper topic if you like to choose. Not much work really, but overall a great professor! If youre not dedicated dont take his class.

If you haven't had an English class for a while he helps you grow and learn. Coming into the class I wasn't sure what a thesis was, how to cite with APA style and MLA but since his class I understand how to do both. Essays to write but there are practice essays that he gives pointers on to help you before the final product. Great experience.

Loved learning from him, but sometimes it was a little confusing and difficult. Took two classes with him, and would again because I did improve from his teachings. Gave me incredible feedback that helped me earn an A on the final paper.

This was a great class and I learned a lot! If you want to succeed in this class take notes on his comments on your rough drafts and follow the instructions carefully for the discussions. The more you communicate with him the better. Overall He was a great Professor and I really enjoyed the content of the class as well.

There were only two essays that were easy and I got an A on both. If you just do the assignments as best as you can and complete the discussion posts, you'll get an easy A. He grades late and feedback is harsh but honest, which helps improve your writing. Lectures are boring but he typically cut the class short or would say class was optional. 8/10

Overall, this professor wasn't too bad. His class had an interesting theme which is about globalization in foodways. He does really care about your writing as he wants to strengthen your writing. I would recommend taking notes and if you come to class then you would be on his good side of the classroom. Make sure you come prepared in class.

Great teacher, minimal assignments how ever amount or assignments are heavy graded. His assignments are laid out and are plug and play he literally gives you the layout and makes it as simple as possible for you. Tough grader but fair!

The professor has a specific teaching style, but engaging with it pays off. Attend class, complete readings, and utilize study aids like unstuck ai to succeed. The workload is manageable with effort.
