His class is the easiest FYE class, he's funny, and helpful. If you have a problem at all in school, you can always ask him. Other FYE classes give a lot of work but he doesn't.

He tutored me during the summer for intro to calc. He made it more understandable since it was soo hard. Very patient. I imagine he would be good as a teacher since he was so great as a tutor. Thanx Ron. :)

If he notice that you are trying in his course, he will hold your hands and breeze through the course with you. That is how good the man is.

Great tutor, helped me out with math during the summer and english during the fall semester. He's very intelligent and knows how to make everything easier to understand. Never had him as a teacher, but if he's this good a tutor, he ought to be an outstanding teacher.

he was very helpful with my calc. i like the way that he took the time to get to know me personally

awesome teacher.. really cool guy. made class a blast and really cared about the students and their work. i would def. recomend taking this classssssssssss.

Ron is a great professor! If you take his class not only will you learn some interesting material, but you will leave with some important life lessons! He wants his students to do well; he is not biased AT ALL!

Great Teacher, funny guy he keeps you interested in the conversation by joking around and making fun of you basically. Not biased at all though, great guy, really wants you to do well in his class and will go lengths to help you suceed. Take this class!

I took his freshman english class-he is extremely helpful and brilliant. I learned a ton and his class is really fun, you want to go to class. It was also nice because you don't need the textbook-you can find the readings online. Overall just a great professor.

He's awsome! He's so much fun to be in class with.Great topics. Really cares about the students. The time flies in his class. The essays require effort, but overall his class is a breeze. Pay attention in class because the readings can be hard.He's really accessible. TAKE HIS CLASS(they fill up quick)

EVERYONE LOVES RON, even people that hate the world. The guy is hilarious, best teacher I've ever had. You WILL want to go to class. He really makes you think and is brilliant at it. Can talk to him about anything! Even gave me words of wisdom when I wrote about my long distance relationship lol I can't even express how much I love this man.

Ron is THE MAN!! i've always hated taking english classes, but i took one with him and actually enjoyed writing papers! He is so helpful with any issue you have, whether it pertains to the class or not. Overall just a great, caring person who wants all of his students to succeed.

The best professor u will ever have. So entertaining & probably one of the kindest people ever. He is willing to help & is very understanding. Class is always enjoyable to go to..u definitly wont be sleeping in this class. Taking this class was probably the best decision in my college career. He has such a positive influence on who ever meets him.

Ron is the best english teacher i've ever had. He's very helpful when it comes to helping you write the perfect essay. He's the sweetest and funniest english professor. Love this class.

THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER!!!If you are going to take English, take it with Ron. He explains the class material clealy,helps you with your work, he's funny,and you won't get bored in class. Easy A

Ron is THE best professor! His classes are never boring and he's extremely helpful and nice, not to mention hilarious. Definitely take his class, even if you hate writing, you will NOT regret it. Going to class is a joy.

Never a dull moment with Ron!! He is an amazing English professor. He focuses on interesting topics that are awesome to write about. I miss having class with him. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. I got so incredibly lucky to have a professor like him.

Ron is an amazing person. He will change everything about english. You will learn a lot in his class. He's a little hard on grading, but whatever... He's an amazing professor!!!

Well I am a senior now and took him for my freshman english class and I can now say that his class has been the best I have taken throughout my education and has been the best professor I have had. He is great at what he does and I really wish he taught other english classes. Everyone needs to take him!

Professor Glaz was the best Eng professor I have ever had. He changed the way I saw myself as a writer and taught me more than just how to write an essay that reflects a literature piece. After taking his class I was confident in my writing and proud of my essays. He is the best English professor out there!

I can honestly say he's the best English teacher I've ever had. His class gives such interesting topics that are so relevant to a college student compared to the dull subjects the other teachers giveI switched out of two other Eng classes to this and I don't regret it for a second. He's so funny, nice, understanding, take him if you have the chance

I LOVE GLAZ he will always be the best. He has a laid-back teaching style, yet still cares for students. Didn't regret taking his english 1010 class. Amazing teacher

Very good teacher. Would definitely recommend him. Helps everyone with class and works with you always. Very, very good.

BEST teacher by far! I hate english, but this class was always entertaining and fun. Ron Glaz makes this course enjoyable, he interacts with students and helps you every way possible to make you a better writer. By the end of his course, you will see that you have become a much better writer! Would recommend for anyone!

Ron is by far the best professor I've had. Mr. Popular amongst the students and even teachers. His classes are amazing. I looked forward to it and enjoy it. He is laid back but is also constructive with his assignments and feedbacks. I'd recommend him to anyone any day! Take his class if you want a great experience in learning at UConn. Best class!

Hands down the best English professor on the planet. This guy is amazing. Just a laid back teacher who really wants his students to succeed. If his class is full, wait another semester to take him. It's worth it. He gives great feedback that makes getting a good grade easy. Definitely my favorite class I've ever taken. Highly recommend Ron!

Wow, what a guy. You're making a mistake if you don't take Ron for English. You talk about interesting topics and the class is really chill. He gives great comments on your essays and tells you what you need to improve on to get an A. His classes fill up very quickly but it's worth waiting to take him. Just an outstanding class and person.

Really great guy and takes time to talk with everyone individually to talk about your writing. You need to work for your grade but if you listen to what he has to say, you will do great. Really laid back class. For the first time in college, I actually looked forward to going to class. Take Ron for English. Don't take anyone else. Take Ron.

Ron is the best English teacher I have ever had. His papers are really easy, you even get to watch Breaking Bad for one of the assignments. Gives really good feedback on your paper, and pushes you to do more and improve your writing. Do not take any other professor, Ron is the best

Ron is THE BOMB. If you go to UConn Hartford and don't take him for English you are making a huuuge mistake. If you put the work in, you are guaranteed a good grade. It was actually a class I didn't mind going to. Just a great guy overall who wants nothing more than to see you succeed.

Ron is very nice, very funny, and definitely one of the best professors at this school. He knows how to connect to every one of his students and inspire them to improve their writing. His lectures are great and he always know how to keep the time interesting. It is still lots of work, but Ron makes it bearable. I wish he taught more classes!

Ron is the best English professor I have ever had. If you get the opportunity to take his class, DO IT!! He genuinely cares about each of his students and gives excellent feedback on how to make your paper revisions. He will sit down with you one on one to discuss what you do well and what he thinks he could get out of you. 10/10 recommend!

This teacher is a godsend, I hate reading and writing with a passion, but he made every single class enjoyable. If you don't have a smile on your face the whole time your in this class you are depressed beyond belief. As far as Teachers go, he is the best one I ever had. I cannot recommend him enough! Ron, you are a LEGEND BEYOND MEASURE!

RON is the best teacher in a planet. Definitely definitely take his class you're not going to regret it.

This guy is the man! He is funny, relatable and chill. You gotta do some work though! Rough drafts of essays are mandatory, so is peer review with your classmates, and discussion boards. My writing is also now at a different level after taking this class. He gives honest and helpful feedback on your work so you can improve. Listen to the feedback!

Anyone taking ENGL 1010 should take this class. Ron is a great person and you will enjoy meeting him. If you do all the work (discussion boards, rough drafts, essays) and you show improvement throughout the semester you will get an A.

Best introductory English course ever. Please take!!!

Best professor of all time... put me on to game of thrones during the semester too, only thing I wish was that he had more classes.

Talks about his ex's and his love for his dog a lot. Amazing teacher, funny and really relaxed. His grading is the usual, but his comments and feedback really helps. Participation, attendance not mandatory. Do your work and you'll be fine. Not too much hw

Hes the most down to earth professor youll ever meat. Hes not a robot professor he is an actual human. He will listen to you and has a very humanitarian perspective towards everything

The best

Ron is absolutely amazing. Nothing more needs to be said.

TAKE THIS CLASS, YOU WON'T REGRET IT. HE'S VERY FLEXIBLE AND WANTS YOU TO PASS NO MATTER WHAT. HIS CLASS OFFERS TONS OF OPPORTUNITIES TO GET AN A, SO IT DEPENDS ON THE WORK YOU PUT. BEST CLASS IVE TAKEN SO FAR, I LOVE IT. :)

amazing professor. actually listens to you and gets to know you. not too much homework, 3 essays and a multi media project. some readings that are long but interesting that you can skim and scan. would highly recommend this class especially if english is required

What an amazing teacher. Great vibes and you can tell from day one that he's pretty laid back and actually cares about his students. He wants you to explore yourself as a writer and you don't have to worry about writing a certain way. One of my favorite professors. Would recommend to anyone. Sad he only teaches this course.

AMAZING

Professor Glaz is by far my favorite instructor Ive had thus far. He is caring, hilarious and he cares about not overwhelming his students with work. What you dont know, hes willing to work with you on. Id recommend his English class to anyone. With his positive feedback he teaches his students how to develop into great writers. Very laid back!

He's a god!!!! he will always save your ass if ur late u just need to have a valid reason doesn't even ask for proof or anything like other professors, he's a genius and treats every student like his own by the way I'm brown and I had white professors who gave me dirty looks and trust me he looks at me like I'm his son. RON GLAZ FOR PRESIDENT!

He's quite literally one of the top English teachers I've ever had. He's caring, funny, and just overall an enjoyable teacher!! I can tell you a lot happened to me over the COVID-19 crisis, and he's been by my side supporting me and all of his students the whole time. New students: TAKE HIS COURSE!! He's probably the most understanding teacher ever

Professor Glaz is the best. His passion for the subject truly shines through and was very motivating. He also gives such helpful feedback on your rough drafts. I really can not say enough good things about him. I 100% recommend taking his course.

Made the assignments fun. Great feedback and allowed me to write freely. I didn't have to sugar coat my essays. I wrote what I honestly felt and he appreciated my efforts. Hope he teaches higher level classes down the road. He is the best! He uses the book but he also had copies of what we needed to read posted online. Save money don't buy book

Prof. Glaz is an amazing professor. I've never liked English, but somehow Glaz makes the readings/assignments/discussions fun. His use of humor compliments the work. His feedback/replies are phenomenal and very helpful. Very lenient and understanding due to the times we're in and personal issues. The only professor who actually cares about you.

An amazing teacher who is always positive, understanding, and loves to give feedback. If you ever need to take an English course, take Mr. Glaz's. The best English teacher I've ever had.

I used to hate English in high school but Professor Glaz gives so much freedom in writing. Im only a freshman but hes the best professor Ive had! The online structure was simply discussion threads along with 3 essays in total. He gives really really good feedback and is very flexible with due dates as well.

One of the best teachers I have ever had. His class is very fun and not a lot of work. He gives great feedback and is very encouraging.

Professor Glaz is one of Uconn's best professors. He's the most down-to-earth human being. The course itself is not that difficult and every topic you learn is interesting. There was a lesson where we had a week to watch season 1 of breaking bad. This class is truly the best English class at Uconn, hands down. Make sure you take Glaz, spots fill up

I took his class in 2013 but I was randomly thinking about my professors from undergrad & he came to my mind for being the MOST amazing & REALEST professor EVER! All the students know hes amazing since his class is always full, but if hes reading this - I just want him to know how impactful he was & now as a teacher - I look up to him SO MUCH!

THE BEST TEACHER EVER! Glaz is the nicest and most understanding teacher. Overall amazing person & friend. Makes you passionate about English and writing. You have a few different writing projects which aren't that hard. I never liked English, but this was my favorite class. The topics are really interesting and relevant. He makes class enjoyable.

Professor Glaz is the best UCONN has to offer. The most caring, compassionate, and funniest of all. As soon as you start class you get to hear about many interesting and hilarious stories that he has lived through. I would recommend this class over any other. It genuinely helps students explore their writing, and Professor Glaz is supportive.

Took this class with him during COVID-19 and he was very understanding of the fact students are stressed with all the online learning and allowed extensions. Very kind and gives feedback to make your writing easier. I hate english but this class was doable

Professor Glaz is honestly amazing, you can tell he really cares for his students and the stuff hes teaching. He gives great feedback on essays and is there to answer any questions. Loved this class and would take it again! Highly recommend this professor

Such an amazing, nice professor. He truly cares about his students about their wellbeing and hearing what they have to say, there needs to be more professors like him. The best professor I have experienced at UConn Hartford. 5/5 recommend. Not a lot of work, just discussion posts every week, and 3 projects in the year.

He is honestly the best English teacher I have ever had in my life. I have always hated writing but the way he allowed his class to write made writing feel less like a painful job and more like something I can actually turn into my own thing. I would definitely take his class again and you will not regret taking this class.

Professor Glaz is honestly one of the best professors i have ever had. He truly cares for his students and will help with any issues. He also gives great feedback on all assignments to help you improve your writing. Definitely take him you wont regret it!

Lives up to the hype, quite possibly the best professor on any UCONN campus.

Prof Ron was the absolute best. I went through so much mentally and literally struggled with Covid and was in and out the hospital. This man accommodated my learned and due dates with the most reasonable humane logic. Ron if you read this, you are hands down the best prof at uconn. TAKE ENGLISH WITH RON

Prof. Ron is the best without a doubt. He is not only caring but he wants his students to succeed inside and outside the class. I 100% recommend him.

An amazing professor, I wish he thought more classes cause I would take every one of his classes.He is very understanding and will make you walk out of class knowing you enjoyed class even at 8am. He will bend over backwards for you and he really cares about his students, and it shows.If you have the change to take his class, do it you won't regret

Prof Glaz is hands down the best professor on the Hartford campus. He's so open to all your ideas and style of writing. He's made my life so stress free with a slighter heavy workload this semester. He's hilarious and literally will talk about his life nonstop during class, instead of teaching. Take english with Ron, you will not regret it.

AMAZING. He will literally make your life easier. Class was interesting, and I've never liked English and sucked at it, but taking with him has been such an amazing experience. This class has been by far my most favorite class I've taken. He is hilarious and makes lectures fun and entertaining. Would highly recommend taking ENGL 1007 with him.

He is probably the most chill professor in all of UConn. Your grade is the best grade you receive on one of his 3 papers and you get to revise one of the essays for a better grade. The class was fun to go to because he was hilarious and really got to know everybody personally.

He is amazing if you are looking to take a class that is laid back but you will 100% learn something this is the class to take.He understand everything and he always allows a few minutes to talk about things(Uconn Mbb championship)If I were to recommend any professor it would be him w/o a doubt.He really care and he makes sure you learn things too.

He is such an amazing professor to have and i was grateful to have been taught by him. He often gives opportunities to students to improve in his class as well as providing clear instructions on assignments. I recommend taking his class 110%. i wish he offers more class at the university because he is such an awesome guy!

Prof Glaz is THE best professor I've ever had. He was super flexible with due dates and understanding of outside commitments that may take priority sometimes. I was able to truly write in my own style and get great feedback which ultimately led me to an A at the end of the semester. Highly recommend taking English with Ron!!!

Three hour long lectures but I didn't even mind because he made class so enjoyable. He really tries to connect with his students on a more personal level and at times will let us leave early. One of my favorite professors and hope to take him again in the future.

the best professor you could probably ever have in your entire life. he's very understanding and easy going. he's extremely nice. this class was the only class i actually wanted to attend (english is my least favorite subject too). he makes it enjoyable by the type of discussions we have. if you don't take his class you are going to regret it

Listen to his students. Great instructor. Offers personal feedback.

He really lived up to the hype. He is truly a one of a kind professor that goes out of the norm of other traditional English professors, but in the best way possible. Engaging lectures, flexible deadlines, stress-free environment...trust me, and the other 80+ amazing ratings on here, you won't ever regret taking this class.

He is such an amazing professor that was very flexible on deadlines. He was always engaging in class, some lectures ended earlier, and also he gets to know all of his students, which was pretty amazing. I would for sure recommend anyone to take his English class!

Great professor. Easy to talk to about anything, including non-academic matters. The class requires careful thinking and lots of revision, but that's to be expected with any W class. Highly recommended.

Literally one of the best teachers I took during my 4 years of college. Very memorable classes that makes you want to go to class. Not all classes are based on lectures. He switched things up into fun activities and class is very straightforward to follow. Fight for him to be on your schedule!!

Best professor
