This is the teacher someone needs to have. He helps understand the more difficult parts, for he takes time to explain what you need to know in the easiest way. His clarity is perfect, and his teaching style is universal. He is one of the best teachers I have ever had. If you want to improve your writing skills, do not hesitate to take him.

I took the EAP1684 class with Professor Sfiropoulos a few years back. He spoke extremely fast and for me, it was hard to understand because my English was not great at the time. I got an F even though I tried. However, I retook the class with a different professor the semester after and got an A.
