He is a great teacher.He really wants you to learn something from his class, and it's very helpful.
He's not a very good teacher. His lectures weren't helpful. He's a very hard teacher too. He's always in a hurry and insists that you come to his office.
He is a good teacher. He tris to make all topicks cleer and interesting. He use many visual aids. You will never slip in his class. His ideas makes you to memorize most of the amterial.

Michael is the best teacher I have ever had. He uses Blackboard and many Internet activities that make the class fun and interesting. I learned a lot in that class.
Nice and helpful. One of my favorite professors.
Michale is a very strict teacher, but this is the only way to really learn english.He uses a variety of tools to make his lectures up to date.I mentally enjoyed classes I took with him.I passed his class with B, but after that I could be proud that I got an A form COM103 and 101.thanks for everything!
This is the worst teacher in Moraine Valley. He is very unclear about his subjects. He is a very unhelpful teacher as well, expecting you to know something that he has never teached before. He believes everyone should know everything that he does. A person who is full of himself that should get off his high horse and actually start teaching.

He is the worst teacher that i have ever take the class very funn but he didnt know to explain it
he is cool,but dont know how to teach.
He is the very hard to understand espacaily for international sutdents, i dont recommend him at all .hard test dont know how to communicate with students.
cute but don't take him if you really need to study English - you can take his class for fun
It's so hard. Don't take his class.
I think that he is a very good teacher. If u study u will good. His classes are interesting and fun! U will neVER bored in his class. If he see u working, he will put u a very good grade. I think that his classes are very necessary to improve English skills because u need to work a lot during his class. Take him if u like challange :)
He has big ego. His class is too difficult. He does not really care about his students. Never at his office hours
For me he is one of the best teachers. He uses many different methods to make classes more interesting and fun. However, he is a little crazy about computers ;)
I like his way of teaching, even if he doesn't keep the syllabus and is a little disorganized. But his classes are more fun than many others.

no good
He is not good... I never want take his class again.
I like him, but if you need a teacher rather than a friend, do not take his class. Mike is nice and supportive (if he is in the mood). But he is also so lost in his own syllabus? and he irritates easily when he comes to class unprepared, which is often. Sorry, Mike.
Michael is knowledgeable. He is smart and knows his subject. His biggest problem is that he is SO full of himself. It can be rude at times and childish.
You can actually learn something in this class. He is my favorite teacher.
Good online class. Enjoyable
class was difficult but interesting. I got "B"
Good at explaining grammars and students. I will take reading with Mr. Mike this semester.
His classes always fill up first. He is good teacher and he let me in his class even when it full.
Fun class and you learn a lot. Will take again next semester
Good teacher. Prepared and happy to be in class.
Fun class. We listened to American music, watched movie clips and did a lot of stuff with computers. It was fun. Students who don't try could not pass. Some students don't like that burt to me it is fair. He has a lot of good mood so that is good too.
Mr Renehan won a teaching award. He is really good but don't take him if you don't want to study. It is hard- but fun too. Register early or you won't get in his classes
before his class I was afraid to speak to Americans but now I feel good living here. It was a hard class but he was nice and always made it fun. I am really glad I took with him
i took him for reading. He is really funny and kind to students. I wish he will teach writing next semester but he doesn't. i don't know about hot, but he cute! Don't take him if you don't like study or computers
Grammar class with Mr. Renehan is good if you want to learn. But you have to be on-time and he doesn't take late work. I can't understand the grammar from the book but he explains it so I can figure it out. I want him to teach the next level but he doesn't. His class is not boring. I like that! He met with me in office hours when I had problems.
Works hard in class and cares about the students. Lots of video clips and unexpected jokes make it fun. He REALLY can explain grammar. Wish he'd teach the next level but he stops at L2, why?
I learn a lot and it is fun. Good class if you like group work and an excellent teacher
We had a great semester with awesome projects and activities. Grammar class is fun with Mr. Michael
Best teacher I've ever had. Fun class and I learned a lot. I feel better about my writing ability. Not hot, but cute for sure.
He helps me a lot. Fun class but hard too, especially at the end. Everything is actively not just listening
Online class was very good. I could travel and enjoy my summer and still take my writing class. Teacher makes class funny.
He is very good teacher. He help me alot I took the first class with him which speech. He encourage me a lot and I took a good grade with him. I like his personality although he is sometimes mad but I love him because he is very organize and he like every thing to be the best.
His class is fun and he is very organized
Good class, lots of activities out of class too for students who want to present at conferences and workshops.
I liked his class a lot. I was always busy and never bored.
Mr r is cool. He let me rewrite papers when I was having a hard time with my personal life. He does't know how much I appreciate that
My favorite teacher. I learned a lot from him and the class was fun and interesting. I would like to take him again
I had him the only semester he taught com101 and he was hands down one of the best teachers I ever had. Super nice guy and was very helpful. I wish I could take him again.. He is very understanding and gives us a heads up when papers are due and if we received a bad grade he gives you an opportunity to make it up. Best teacher take him!
very good at helping students. My favorite.
I could finished 074 and 076 in one semester in grammar. He works hard for student to not wasting their time. Will take in writing.
Online was my favorite class at moraine. Teacher is vey good Because he give us a learning assistant. It is like two teachers. And if you have problem you can go to tutoring cuz they all know his class and will help. Don't take if you lazy. Face to face is more esay
Interesting class
do not take his class. confussing and unhelpful
best teacher.
I took grammar 3 over the summer, and you all know that grammar 3 is challenging, but if you study and pay attention you will do fine. Best advices, do and read the exercises in the book, review everyday, and watch Mr. Renehan's videos. His videos are very helpful. I still watch them until now even though I am done with grammar! :-)
He is nice, but his class is really hard if you are not ready to study hard, you could not take this class. Maybe you won't pass this class.
I took all IEL level three courses with Mr. R. So if you are looking for a professor who will definitely prepare you for COM 101, you should take courses with Mr. R. He is very knowledgeable, and has the ability to change students to the best in everything. He is the best among all IEL professors! I am very grateful that I was taught by him.
I feel much better about writing now.
he gives you lots of work to do, and basically there're just easy to do. if you do them all, you should get an easy A. He's funny and easy going. He does listen to your suggestions and he's trying to make the classroom all work together. The best professor in MVCC
Great professor!
He is a wonderful teacher
His class is not boring. I like him.
I love my writing class with Mr. Michel.
My English writing is much better after this class. I don't feel nervous anymore about writing.
Good class for me. Thank you Mr Michael!
He let me turn things in late a lot. hahaha thanks Mr. R!
Learned a lot
Class is fun with Mr. Michael
Good class
Dont try to take any class with him unprofessional he dont care about his students
Let me redo assignments several assignments after I was sick. Thank you mr Michel
Grammar class was easy. Lots of pretests so the final tests are easy.
I will never forget this class. It was funny but hard sometimes. He give a lot of help to me so i can learn,
I would like to take another class with him
The online class was so easy. Just do your work and you will pass. After the tests you have to work with tutors to correct your paper so you do better next time. I like that the best about the class. Mr. Michael he always gave me extra time when I needed it.
I took the class with Mr. michael and I have to say it was my very favorite class. The readings were very interesting and the class was fun. I improved my writing a lot in this class. I did not expect that in reading class.
My reading is really good now because of this class. He is always there to help students and even has extra classes after for anyone who wants to learn.
Good class for me
I like study with Mister Michael. He work hard and caring for students.
I like the online with mr. michal. I can do work at home and traveling too. I will take COM 101 in fall!
My writing improved a lot in this class. It was good for me.
Not easy but I am learning a lot. This class does not waste my time. I pay a lot of money, so I want the good teacher. Not just good grade.
One of the best professors you will ever meet, especially if you truly want to learn and not just earn credits.
He gives the homework everyday from Mon-Thurs in online class and requires you to read all his lecture. It's all in the book and easy to get the information. Only 3 or 4 writing test in testing center. Easy to get a grade A.
my favorite!
Amazing professor! He cares about his students
his very good
