Nick (as preferred) is excellent. Very funny. Tells funny stories about his eighth grade students. Very interesting. Easy A. Thanks Nick
nick was awesome. i kinda think he caught ADD from his eigth graders but eventually he gets the point across
MR. WEISS IS A VERY FUNNY PERSON AND IS VERY HELPFUL HE EXPLAINS EXACTLY WHAT HE WANTS IN THE 3 ESSAYS AND IN THE FOURTH. HIS CLASS IS VERY EASY EVEN IF YOUR NOT INTERESTED IN ENG.YOU WILL PASS WITH AN A.
He's a great teacher. I ended up having to drop the class, but it had nothing to do with him or his teaching. He's very clear on instructions and is very funny. I definitely recommend taking his class.
Good teacher, very funny and helpful. Explains all assignments in detail. Class was easy, just do essays and turn in on time.
Mr. Weiss is very very funny, easy going, he grades easy, just make sure essays are correct amount of pages, and HOT!
Professor Weiss is a fantastic instructor. I actually looked forward to going to class. As long as you pay attention in class and complete your assignments on time, you should do great in his class.
hilarious guy. IMO he is an easy grader, content-wise. However, if he says to write a 500-word essay, it better be 500 words long, no more, no less. Very strict on length of paper. If you mess it up, he will give u an opportunity to rewrite it. He will also look over the research paper before submission and tell u how to fix it.
Awesome teacher, and very funny. Tells stories about teaching 8th graders. Looks like Steve Carell. Tells you exactly how to write your paper and cite sources. Helps you before it's due and he gives you the opportunity to fix essays to raise your grade. Is a stickler on paper length. A 3-page essay is to be 3 pages exactly--no more, no less.
Very good class. Just do what he says (which is not much) and you will get an A. His class goes by pretty fast, because he always has intereting stories to tell. With minimal effort will receive at least a B.
Keeps those 3 hour classes fun and exciting.
He is the reason I want to be a college professor. He is the first professor that ever made me WANT to be in class. I strongly suggest anyone who needs english to take him, you definitely won't regret it.
He's a really cool professor. He makes class fun and tries to relate to the students. He gets really annoyed when students don't show up for class and grades them poorly-so SHOW UP! He grades easy if you're always there. I definately recommend this prof.
He is very very easy going guy. He makes class lively. He gives enough time to complete the assignments. He relate with class. I hope I get such professor in future.
Mr. Nick Weiss was a very good teacher, who taught what he had to and added his own fun into the class. I would highly recommend him as a teacher.
Professor weiss is just great. every class is like going to a comedy club. but everything he talks about is important. He is not hard but he makes sure all the stuff we learned is real life important. And for a 40 yer old guy hes pretty hansome ;-) he looks like the guy from the office
Don't listen to the person who left the nasty comments. I know who it is, and that "person" was jealous cause wanted to be the class clown and Prof Weiss was 10 times funnier. In fact, that person had something dumb to say every ten minutes and the teacher ranked him every time, but always in a nice way. Besides that, I learned a lot in this class.
I agree with my sister. (previous rater) We took the course together and loved it. I learned more about writing in the first three weeks than I did my entire senior year of high school. He is not easy meaning, he's not a pushover, but he explains stuff so good that you just can't help but learn. Keep up the good work Dr. Weiss! We love ya!
The class was very intersting and so much fun
this guy is funny! his class was easy. basically it's 3 essays and final research paper, and they're not that hard to do. his grading is pretty easy too. i recommend him. he kinda looks like steve carell lol
SUPER FREAKiNG AWESOME.!! iF YOU FAIL SORRY YOU ARE AN IDIOT.. OR JUST DONT GO TO CLASS. HE REPEATS HIMESLF CONSTENTLY IN ORDER FOR PEOPLE NOT TO FORGET. HE IS HILLARIOUS AS WELL. ITS FUN WHEN TEACHERS HAVE PERSONALITIES. THE ESSAYS ARE PRETTY MUCH FREE RANGE TO WRITE ABOUT WHAT YOU WANT AND HE GRADES THEM SUPER EASY JUST STAY ON TOPIC :D
Good teacher. Makes everything clear where expectations are concerned. Grades pretty fairly. Not much interaction, but it was an online class, so I guess that figures. If you do the work, it's an easy A/B class.
He required you attend class and encourages participation. He grade fairly easy and the work isn't hard, but you must do it how he wants it. His class is interesting and keeps you entertained. HE lets you know exactly what he wants and will help you with anything and encourages questions. I would highly recommend anyone take his class.
I love him ! He is great !! His class is so easy and he helps you on whatever you need. He is fun but always is serious about students passing. He doesnt like students to fail and he tries his hardest NOT to fail you. His papers are so easyy ! His finals & midterms he gives you all the answers. If you dnt pass omg go back to high school
He is very nice, and he makes the class interesting with jokes. his notes are clear and direct. his test are easy as long as you study which should be no problem. take him he is a great professor
The easiest class I have ever taken. You seriously have to be an idiot not to pass a class with atleast a B. Hes such a breeze, cute, smart, caring for his students and cute! We need more teachers like this guy!!! Did I mention he was cute ;) haha!
Took him for the summer, easiest class, easier than English 1301, Great teacher very helpful, i recommend you to take his class
Best teacher I ever had. He is very understanding and explains things very well. He is very "fair" with grading and he will provide you with help anytime, before or after school. His made us write three essays, each 1-3 pages long. We had to also write a research paper about any poet. If I am you, I will take his class without any hesitations.
Great teacher! Loved his class & I actually enjoyed it! :) I highly recommend him!
Really nice professor and most of all a very caring and down to earth personality. Honestly speaking, he was the nicest professor I ever had at san jac. Highly recommended!!! Very simple and straightforward person, unlike other pretentious English professors at san jac, lol!!!
Great teacher I would recommand you taking him. He is really easy and trys to help as much as he can. Test are EASY and Assignments are too. WAY DOWN TO EARTH!!!
Best English teacher around. All ways around for help, just go by his office. Easy A
Nick Weiss is a especially professor. I'm native language is Spanish and I was very worried to take a upper English class. Nick spend time and time with me on his personel time to make me get good grades. when I messed up he showed me why and I write the paper for a better grade. I am so happy for Nick Weiss being my teacher.
If you are like me, and have been out of school for over 10 years; this is a great professor to have. Nick is a wonderful professor and wants each student to succeed. By far a very entertaining class, and certainly a class to be present for! Keep up with the readings, and assignments and you will do very well in his class.
Glad i took Mr. Weiss for Eng. 2 he was an awesome teacher, and helped you out alot if you needed it.
one word for this prof. AMAZING! take him for any English course you need!! fyi:as soon as registration opens make sure to book him because he gets booked fast!(:
Very sweet professor. Knows what he is teaching and always tries to help students.
professor weiss is great! very helpful!
Nick is AWESOME! Really cares about his students. Whenever u have any question, just ask. He is more than happy to help. Best teacher ever!
This teacher is amazing.I went into this literature class thinking, Oh, my God! This is going to be horrible." But, I actually really, truly enjoyed the lively discussions and the interaction with Nick Weiss. He has a way of making boring things interesting. I had to work hard, but it was worth it.
He is the type of professor that you see in college movies. He helps you loosen up if you are the nervous type. Great, fun class.
Really Really GREAT! A summer class--at night no less--and it was GREAT!!! Very multi-media and lots of discussion. FUN and educational.
I took him in a 3 week mini over the summer and absolutely loved the class. I made an A! I failed English twice before I took him. He's great.
Survey of later lit. Very cool guy! participate in class discussions! Do your readings, it makes the class so much easier.Midterm/final arent as easy as he says,so study! Offers extracredit for going to the writing center. i wish i needed more ENGL classes; i'd take him! dont take him if u get offended easy by jokes. i love this old man
Awesome teacher! He is my favorite! He makes english interesting. He spends half of the class talking about politics and having class discussions but he also incorporates english into it!If you wanna take him, the hour registration comes up get him, his classes fill up very quickly! I tried to take him for 1302 but couldn't. I highly reccomend him!
You have a journal with 10 entries due at the end of the semester. One midterm super easy he basically gives you the answers. One final dito as midterm. 4 papers; persausive, informative, abridged biography and informative research. All ranging from 3-5 pages. He says to read the books, but I didn't because he goes over it in class anyway.
Great teacher! Very helpful and clear. Tends to ramble and repeat himself sometimes, but I think he just really wants to make things clear to everyone. Very fair grades on papers. I would recommend him, even if you suck at English- he's always happy to help.
This class was so easy it's not even funny. We had to write 3 essays and and 1 research paper. He tells you EXACTLY what he wants/expects so just write the paper how he wants you to and you will get an A. He goes over the final and the mid-term and makes them really easy. He's really funny and if you take this class you have nothing to worry about.
Proff.Weiss.....Man. This professor is AWESOME!!!!! He made the class interesting,fun,and just so easy!!! :D I totally recommend this professor for comp! :)
Handsome and funny man. His class is easy and I bet he is the best comp teacher at san jac. you will not regret taking him, just follow MLA format and his rubric and you will do well.
Took him online and the work load seemed really high. I have taken lots of online classes but never been required to have this much participation. He grades easy and I made the grade I thought I would make on each paper.
Professor Weiss is a Good teacher and very funny,he makes english fun..He's not your typical boring english teacher.You will learn,just put effort into your papers,its not hard to make an A or B in his class.I enjoyed his class:)He cares about his students and wants you to pass.
Great online class. Particular about following instructions re: essays and works cited. Good communication w/feedback on graded assign.
He's so funny and entertaining which makes coming to class enjoyable. He explains everything so clearly and is always there to help.
Professor Weiss is the best English teacher they have at San Jac. Very Helpful and is always ready to help anyone.Took him for Comp 1 and 2 made an A in both classes.
Professor Weiss is absolutely charming and a pretty hot guy. Other than that, he's a really funny teacher and extremely helpful. He's not intimidating at all and wants you to succeed. I definitely recommend him! :)
Very cute professor, he is very helpful and is always there to help you with whatever you need. I took him for the 5week class in the summer, most easiest class ever this class is idiot proof.
He is a funny prof who makes the material enjoyable. I found sometimes he would ramble on a bit too much but in the end it made class interesting. He is very clear about what he expects in papers/on tests and he was also very understanding when I missed class due to illness. Overall would totally recommend him as a teacher!
Best teacher I ever had! Weiss is SO funny and helpful. He makes you want to be a better writer! I took him for the first and second part of English. I wish he was my professor for every class because he's AMAZING. I did what he told me and I made 100's on my papers. It's not a hard class if you pay attention. Very few notes are required. Take him!
He is a great teacher, I was dissapointed I couldn't take him for more classes because they were always full by the time I registered. He is full of jokes and he makes class fun. I definitely recommend his class.
Took him for Comp I and II...Passed with flying colors!Love,Love,loved his class..not your typical boring English professor thats for sure.He wants you to do good and Pass.I wish every instructor were like him at San Jac.Take him he's Awesome!!!
I took Mr. Weiss for both 1301 and 1302, but 02 during summer, which was great. He is a great teacher and made the class interesting! I definetly recommend him!!! Awesome teacher!
Prof. Weiss is amazing! If you want to get interested in English I suggest taking him! I actually looked forward to every assignment!
Really cool teacher. I took him for ENGL 1301 and Lit & Film. Lit & Film was seriously one of best classes I've taken. You have to try really hard to fail. Watch movies (good ones),do a fun project, go to the media department and play with the green screen. Really he makes all his classes interesting an enjoyable. He's my favorite professor.
AMAZING english teacher! He requires you to go to class which is absolutely interesting in his class. He jokes around but stays on topic. I am not a fan of writing essays but he explains and helps so well that i have no problem writing them now!
What an awesome person/teacher! He makes class very interesting and always keeps you entertained. Took his 3 week mini and received a B, due to lack of effort. He is always willing to work with you and keeps you up to date on everything. Best English teacher you can take!
Very Interesting teacher, He is hard, but if you read the book, follow his directions, and pay close attention to his notes you will pass this class.
Great teacher. Mr. Weiss keeps the class interesting. You earn your grades and if you show up, pay attention and participate you will do well. I have never been comfortable writing essays and have been out of school many years. I took 1301 and 1302 with Mr. Weiss made A's in both.
Took him for a 3 Wk mini. Great teacher! Very simple and easy to understand, also entertaining. Always helps you know the concept and what's needed.
He 's an awesome teacher, really funny and makes the class go by really fast. As long as you write you're essays and take notes you'll pass this class.
The course was easy!! He gave good writing assignment and always replied back emails and questions promptly!! I highly recommend
Love, Love, Love this class and Professor. He is so funny and makes class very interesting; makes his class enjoyable for students to attend. Essays have interesting topics, he is strict on grading but just follow his instructions and you'll be fine. I would recommend this Professor to anyone!
Professor Weiss is the best! he is so hilarious which makes the class that much better. he is truly a good teacher. I learned a lot, hes really clear and helpful!RUN to his class!!!!!// pay no mind to my bad grammar// not his fault im just lazy!!!!")
If you do everything as he says your will pass. He will not give you credit if you don't do the assignments as stated by him.
First off, he is hilarious and HOT. He is also a very good English teacher. He is very funny and makes you want to go to class. The assignments are easy and easy tests. Attendance is mandatory but he makes class fun and quick. If you want to take him you need to sign up early because he fills up quick. I would definitely take him again!
Professor Weiss is such a great teacher and soo hilarious he should be a comedian on the weekends. Take notes and the essay's are pretty moderate, but just follow his instructions and you'll pass. Professor Weiss has been my favorite English teacher ever and his hot so that's a bonus. Take him you won't regret it.
Highly recommend. Mr. Weiss is inspirational, hilarious, and I would take again. Come to class, on time, participate, pay attention to his lectures, and don't procrastinate on essays. He is laid back on grading, and allows late work to be turned in, but don't expect special treatment like that all the time. Oh, and he is VERY handsome ; )
O.K. so the truth is, if you want an easy A in an Comp 1 class, this is it. Students love him 'cause his class is easy--just 3 essays & extremely simple exams--plus he likes to tell A TON of jokes. He's really laid back, which is great if you don't want to work, but not so much if you actually want to learn how to read & write better.
The best professor EVERR!!!! I wished i could take him for English 1302:( && Hes just soo awesome and super super hilarious. He just makes my day in the mornings!!!! I would totally recommend him to anyone. if you registered a class for him,,, you will most likely pass. ! He just loves to make us smile. Hes the sweetest guyy.
I took his class on campus and he was an awesome teacher. Online he grades much harder and isn't as clear.
By far my favorite professor!! Made an easy A during a 3 week mini. Only 3 papers. Lectures are always fun and he keeps you laughing. Definitely resembles steve carell too. Loved coming to this class. Take him!!
Best professor I've ever had by far. Took both an online and in class class and I have no regrets with either. Super funny and helpful.
I took this professor online, don't take it him online, he grades way hard on his paper assignment, the book assignments were okay but when it came to the essays, I went to his office, and submitted to different sites to get the paper review before submitting it and i still got a low grade, don't take online take him in class why easier.
By far the best college professor out there!! Extremely easy course, I enjoyed being in class every time. Mostly because he's insanely gorgeous :)
He is helpful and funny. definitely recommented !!
Professor Weiss is a great teacher. As long as you show up to class and pay attention then you will pass. His lectures keep you interested and he's funny. He was a much easier grader with papers than my last English teacher. If you have questions, he's there for you. I'd take him again if he offered another class that I needed. Stand up guy!
As long as you read and understand the material he assigns you'll be fine. His lectures are fun to listen to because he's always joking about something. He's a tough grader when it comes to essays but help is always offered if needed.
Very nice, willing to help. Lectures are always fun and engaging. He tends to go off on hilarious tangents but always makes it a point to say what he needs to.
Professor Weiss is a good professor! He makes his lectures funny and ensures that everyone is comfortable sharing their opinions right from the beginning of the semester. He assigned 3 essays and the only tests were the midterm and final. Although his class seems "easy" do not miss! Attendance is counted for along with tardies, so GO TO CLASS!!
Enjoyed his class it has been 16 years since I was in school last and did remember much of MLA format but professor Weiss was there to help me he is tough when it comes to grading the writing assignment but his lecture are fun his class is not hard but he is a tough grader
I loved this class. He is super funny and does tend to get off topic but his class is fairly easy. If you don't pass, it's your own fault. Our mid term and final was pretty identical to the reviews and he grades them as you turn them in. I received a B+ only because I bombed my 1st essay. The other two were A's. I'd take him again in a heart beat.
Good class overall. He was helpful and respectful.
I am a student at UHCL now and I'm looking for a professor for my advanced writing ugh what a pain... thinking back to how much fun this class was.....I really wished he taught over here! I also realized I never rated him and he was awesome!! Take him if you want to have a fun filled interesting class!
Professor Weiss is very chill and laid back. He has a nice personality that will make you stay interested in his lessons. Just a few quizzes and three papers. He does tend to get off topic and share his life so if that bothers you, don't take him. His feedback on essays are helpful and he is a fair grader. Good professor.
Professor Weiss is a individual who unlike other professors, makes you work hard for your grade. At first it may sound bad, but as class progresses, you will notice your writing skills advancing. WARNING: goes off topic a lot by talking about personal beliefs and opinions. However, paying close attention to class will earn you an A (:
I am shocked to see that some students are bothered by open class discussion in this class. After all, are we not in an age when we can have honest respectful discussions that stimulate our desire to write. Or, are we satisfide writing childish politically correct essays about puppies and world peace? Don't be a crybaby if you are made to think.
Took for 2 classes. Still taking second. Amazing person. I had a series of personal issues come up, and Pr. Weiss took time to talk with me and reassure me. And, I am sure I am going to pass. He is compassionate when I needed somebody to talk to. I never had a teacher do that.
Must show effort to succeed. Not "easy", but not "hard" if you are responsible. If you need help, just ask.
He is a great professor, but if you are the type of student that misses class but you still get your work done do not take him! My grade dropped from a b to a c just because of attendance. All my grades were good but he failed me in his participation grade which is worth more than his exams. It makes no sense but he is cool I guess.
Recently took Professor. Weiss and it was one if not the best class I've taken. Great Professor, very funny and respectful, his lecture's are the best and you can see that he truly enjoys what he is doing. I learned a lot in a small amount of time. He gives great feedback, and gives you the grade you deserve on your essays.
He is hands down the BEST professor at San Jac! He makes it easy to get an A as long as you show up and do the work.
Professor Weiss is a great person in general. He is smart and understanding. I took a 16-week online class because his in-class classes filled up fast. I only got a B because I wasn't responsible with checking dates of when assignments were due. If you have something going on, you can go talk with him in person and work things out. I recommend him!
Amazing teacher, one of the best I've had. I can honestly say every time in class was a fun time because of his talks and his humor. I would always laugh and he made the class interesting. He also knows what he is teaching about and if you pay attention and show up, you'll get an A. Great teacher!
Professor Weiss is a wonderful teacher. He truly cares and is willing to help anyone who actually wants to learn. He has a wacky sense of humor and does his best to make class interesting. I took him for 1301 & 1302 after not doing so well with another professor and received A's in both classes. Take him, you won't regret it!
Professor Weiss is one of the best! He truly cares about his students, and is willing to work with you. He wants to see everyone succeed. He does count attendance as a grade, so dont skip class. If you have a valid reason for missing class, he will work with you. He's funny and is able to teach the material so everyone can understand.
Complete assignments on time. Pay attention. Cite papers correctly. Ask if you don't understand or if you need help. Take notes. It's that simple.
Took professor Weiss for comp 1, then comp @ during a 3 week mini class. Made high A's in both. Such an easy and amazing professor. Just do your essays, and cite correctly and you'll have an A!!
Took for a second class -- technical writing. I took this class during a 5-week summer class. I learned more in these 5weeks than in any full semester class I have taken. I'm not kidding when I say, he is one of the most knowledgeable teachers I know. He is so down to earth. He will work with you if you need help. He is funny, brilliant, kind. . .
Hes actually one of the best teachers Ive had. Hes a really easy guy to talk to, his class is easy and hell help you in whatever youre struggling on. No judgement in that class. I totally recommend him.
Prof Weiss is amazing, I took his ENGL1301 as a 3 week mini it was my first 3 week mini class and it was fast pace but Prof Weiss is super helpful with the papers and hes always there when you need someone to talk too! I plan to take him for 1302! Because hes great!
I took him online for Comp 2 and it was pretty easy. He gives you at least 2 weeks to finish one set of homework, which helps balance other classes. You have to write a total of 4 major essays and have 10 regular assignments. It sounds like a lot, but it really isn't. Book is necessary. He is also quick to respond to emails and really nice.
I took his class for comp 1 as a winter mini. I was nervous about it, but he made it very easy for us. We had to do 4 essays, a midterm, and a final. Each essay was 2 -3 pages. He would offer to help us with our papers beforehand. Over all he was very helpful and I'm glad I got comp 1 out of the way in 3 weeks. Great teacher.
BEST TEACHER EVER!!!!!
Prof Weiss was one of the best teachers I have ever had. He understood what it was like to be a student and was always telling stories that made you laugh until you cry. He would always give you the benefit of the doubt and only gave assignments that were absolutely necessary. I only wrote 4 papers the entire semester! And he never gives homework!!
Take this class. You will not regret it. Want to be a great technical writer? Take this class. It is only hard if you are lazy. Real-world assignments. No useless topics. Just what you need to succeed.
Professor Weiss is such an amazing English instructor!! He is so funny. You wont regret taking him! I took him for a 5week course & it was so easy . Passed it with a easy A. No text book required. 4 major essays, I believe 3 or 4 short answers, & a midterm & final exam. I wished I took him for English 1301.
Weiss does his job. He was usually clear about what mistakes were commonly made in papers during his summer semester of English 1302-101. At the same time, you need to be prepared to listen to whatever he says about politics when he isn't telling his life story because you can expect to become more bottled up if you're as inarticulate as I am.
A super laid-back, spontaneous teacher. What is done each day in class is really up in the air. If he gets off on a tangent about his life stories or real-world situations, the whole class period might just be a discussion. He is super funny and doesn't require much work. Do your journals and essays and you'll get an A! NO HOMEWORK AND EASY TESTS!
I took him in person one year and I thought he was the most chill laid back professor ever. I am currently taking him online and he is not the same. I understand that it's online but he gives so much work. For a "regular" assignment we have to about 5 question and 2 of those questions the answers must be 1 page. He does give lots of extensions!
Mr. Weiss was Awesome!! I am not very good at writing essays, but the time of draft I would show him my essay and he would write notes on it very nice about it! I would be nervous to ask but ASK HIM! I would only see a handful of students showing him the draft to read through the others that didn't would complain why there essay got a bad grade.
He would be hilarious in class and tell great stories. His essay's are more free-based rather than locked in compared to most professors. I wouldn't call him amazing, but he's relatively better than others. He takes away lots of points for small mistakes, and can make a 95 essay become a 75 because of small mistakes.
One of the best professors I've ever had. He makes class entertaining and engages very well with the class.
100% best english teacher at san jac
Cool class. Professor spoke his mind a lot. He often told stories about his past and made class pretty entertaining. What I didn't expect was all the presentations we had to do. It was difficult for me because I'm such an introvert, but I managed. I had to work with the same group of people where a lot of laziness was involved. Very frustrating.
Very good teacher. He tells you what he expects. Grades fairly and accordingly. He makes you work for your grades. Pay attention and read thoroughly.
Very good Professor, just make sure to follow instructions or else he takes good amount of points off.
Professor Weiss is the the best English professor because he taught us how to write better papers. There were three major papers and 10 modules, plus a "group work" final. He was very accommodating when I turned a module in late and only took off 10 points. I would definitely take him again. He was quick to respond but not quick to grade.
I enjoyed taking Professors Weiss classes both Engl. 1301-1302 he is so funny his class is a discussion class I would take him again. I Shure did not regret having taken both of my classes with Professor Weiss and would take them again and you should try taken a class with him too you will thank me later! Got to love ENGl class with Professor Weiss
Solid dude. I DESPISE english and writing classes because I suck at it. He was real cool and works with the students. Focus on effort and comprehension over execution.
I took him for both my Engl 1301 & 1302 he gives discussion class and his not boring he makes it fun and cares a lot and its an easy grader he gives you 1 month to do you essays and has long has you do the modules are easy 100 just do your work and turn it on time and you will pass I would defenitely take him again and again if I could BEST PROFESS
Professor Weiss is a very understanding and considerate professor. There is a total of 10 homework modules for the course and 3 projects. There is no textbook required! This class was amazing and was not heavy on class work. I wish I could take this professor again!
Nice, explains stuff really well, and gives good feedback on essays. You barely have to take notes, but you do need to pay attention. I didn't like him, though. He goes off topic a lot, which I usually don't mind, but he did it to the point where I could've walked away for a while and wouldn't have missed anything. Lots of distasteful jokes
Professor Weiss was great! As long as you follow the instructions on homeworks & essays you will pass. I took this class online and it was great. There was 5 homework modules and 3 essays. Prof Weiss responds fast to emails and is incredibly helpful. Definitely going to try to take ENGL 1302 with him! Great class!
Finally was able to take his class Summer 2022 online. FOLLOW the instructions on homework and essays and you'll do good. There was 9 Modules ( 1 team assignment) 8 Db's and final. He responds to emails within 24hrs Overall great teacher, great grader.... TAKE HIM!!!! If I passed and I hate writing papers you could pass!!!
Great Professor!!! Very understanding and provided great feedback on the required essays. Always answered all my questions via email and made me feel my efforts were noticed, even though I knew I had lots of errors. He would point them out, make suggestions and provide me with a passing grade so I could avoid the same mistakes on the next essay.
Cannot express how much I enjoyed this class. We had 4 essays, and about 10 class assignments. super easy though. The final exam is the easiest test I have ever taken. Professor Weiss is hilarious and really cares about his students and wants everyone to finish with an A. TAKE HIM!
Great teacher loves to talk.
I had such a great time with this professor, he was really engaging and loved to explain if you needed help. Loved to talk during lectures! Overall 10/10
I suggest arranging your schedule in a way where Professor Weiss is your last class for the day. The reason for this being that he always made my day and he left my school day feeling on a good note. There are three major essays (min 2-3 pages), weekly assigments, and a mandatory textbook. I really recommend taking Professor Weiss! Easy course A+
He was such an amazing professor, he did get off topic on the lecture but would still review on the lecture the following day. He is funny during his lectures & is very understanding!! Easy class 100% recommend.
Professor Weiss' class is very enjoyable. If you're taking this as a summer class I would definitely recommend taking it in person. There are only 5 modules, 2 essays, and many in class assignments. The homework isn't hard it is just very time consuming. He does get off topic a lot but gets to the point. I would take his class again if I needed to
Honestly feels like high school vibes mixed with college lectures. Not sure if that's good, but it felt reassuring to have a fun and reliable professor.
Weiss is a excellent professor English is one of my weakest points and professor Weiss made it very understandable Weiss also loves his job and it shows he makes the classes interesting
I'm pretty sure these reviews are for Nicholas Weiss instead of "Nick." He's an amazing professor. I recommend taking his class in person; he makes it so fun. He does get distracted easily, but it honestly won't affect you at all because all his assignments have instructions and are easy to understand. I love his class, 100+/10.
Professor Weiss is a fun and engaging lecturer who keeps the class entertained. Use unstuck AI and the free textbook to ace the essays and assignments. Highly recommend this easy A+ course.
Great Professor, He's very understanding if you talk him, the class in general is very easy. He also loves to make jokes and they are pretty funny sometimes.
He is very understanding if you have any technology issues or even have personal matters going on if you talk to him. Class is very easy. He will even tell you some funny stories during lectures .
Hilarious professor. Never a class where he did not have me and my classmates laughing and cracking jokes along with him. Simple grading criteria, allows students to make up missing work with understandable reasoning.
Professor Weiss is amazing! He gets off topic often, but his assignments are never too difficult to the point that its detrimental. He give multiple chances to make up grades. Highly recommend taking him!
Professor Weiss was funny every class there wasn't a moment i wasn't laughing. His assignments are pretty easy but also teaches and gets the point across of what he's trying to teach. I really enjoyed his class and would definitely recommend for comp 1302
Professor Weiss was okay. There were some homework and group assignments, but they weren't hard. There were only 2 major essays for the semester and he just gave 100s on them with no feedback. He would get off-topic and overshare personal stuff during lectures, but he was chill. If you want an easy credit, I recommend his class.
