Incredibly passionate.
Super Passionate!!!!!
Majority of class is focusing on Emerson and his odd personality. Very passionate and UNLIKE any other teacher. Be prepared to think and "share" in the circle. Hard essays and unclear on assignment yet is a teacher to be remembered.
he is not clear, always acting like he is coming from space. He gives unclear assignments. I think he dropped off mars. He's still a bit funny. You'll have an interesting class.
he's cool and all but sometimes he can act weord and make some corny ass jokes that dont make any sense
Extremely boring. He find himself very funny (not at all). Too much politics (hates Bush). Extremely unclear with assignments. Not even smart. He sucks big time!!!
He will relate everything to GOD. It becomes VERY anoying. Hes pretty weird too... has a moment where he acts like he is possessed in the Exorcist.
He is very intellectualy... so much that others do not understand him and dismiss him as being "wierd" If you want an interesting class and teacher... take him! But if you want your usual boring, class lectures (blah!) look elsewhere... Not that hard of a teacher.
He really is the weirdest teacher I have ever had. If you are a good writer it is an easy A - I got an A and never read 1 of the 4 required books. If you are a psych major take this class to see what you think is up with him!!!
In feaster's class, it's more of a debate type class, he is funny. but you have to do you work inorder to pass.
This man makes you think. You don't want to take him for an "easy A". But I got an "A" and earned it. He really makes you work for it. But I learned so much from him.
Yes, he is "weird." He is not an easy grader in this class. He was a bit inflexible, even with an excused medical absence. The selection of movies for the course change but they are always eclectic (and controversial at times). You need to think and psychologically evaluate films.
Very nice, and understanding, he is kind of weird but extraorinarily nice! I loved his class.
One of the best professor at BCC! He applies his teachings to your lives,you even get the option of writing a journal paper instead of a regular boring one!I took all 3 of his classes!He's that good.He's silly & funny.This is what college is about thinking & laughing,applying it to your life!GOT A+
AMAZING TEACHER!!!HIS EXCENTRISM IS HIS STRENGTH. YOU WILL LEARN FROM THIS MAN WHICH IS SOMETHING THAT YOU CANNOT SAY ABOUT ALL PROFESSORS! TAKE HIS CLASS AND OPEN YOUR MIND TO HIM...HE'LL STIMULATE ALL OF YOUR SYNAPSES!
He may come off as weird, but he is just passionate about what he does, and that is analyze films and dreams. Some of the movies are pretty good if you keep an open mind. If you don't like to think i suggest you don't take his class.

Very good teacher!He is very self-spiritual and likes to apply it to his class. Very helpful on essay meets with you on a one on one. I'm not very good essay writer but I recieced (B). Oh, Get involve in class discussion and do extra credit if needed.
nice teacher, but he always wears purple socks, and he likes to talk about drugs
Wonderful, funny, and a little crazy. Makes class fun and is very passionate about everything. Will help you if you ask and show up to class. Extra credit for going to the movies with or without him. Take him for a refreshing change !!!!!!
Most memorable college professor I will ever have.The man is extremely passionate about his work.As long as you do whats required its an easy class. He makes you think about what you read and likes input. Extremely laid back and open atmosphere. Hell, you can even get up, get food, come back and eat in class. And the class always sits in a circle!!
he is an interesting guy...he likes his little "circle of love" and always wants people to sit in it...he tends to wear purple socks all the time...and he hasn't gone one day without talking about drugs...but he's still a good teacher...i sometimes daze of...but i dunno that's just me...oh yea...he likes gossip...so have some
Great teacher, a littile weird but cool. His classes are very interesting. always talking about drugs. His books are kinda hard to read at first but you'll come around eventually.
He is a great guy, very nice, not very clear in what he wants from you. Very little essays to do. Only 4. Doesn't give you room for mistakes. Available all the time to talk to you via email or appts. Just needs to clear up. Interesting. Never boring.
he's not nice at all. the books we have to read are hard to understand. it's like i was reading another languange. AND I DONT RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYONE.
He wants you to read great minds and then asks you to discuss, he helps you understands and introduce incredible enlightening new ideas. Great human being and a laidback professor. Taught me a lot, incredible lessons and input in his part. Love his classes. Take his Film as Literature class. He truly cares about his students. GREAT, SIMPLY GREAT.

He's nice. If you want to take 1102, don't take him. If you want to learn something, don't take him. He's not clear. There is NO learning. There's talking and telling a lot of corny jokes. If you want to pass without learning ANYTHING..TAKE this class. He's a nice person..not a good teacher.
He is very helpful to the students on achieving their goals to a better grade. His knowledge of grammar and literature is superb and is his methods of instruction is nothing like I have ever seen before.
Oh my lol Feaster was awesome lol class is always unique and creatigve disscussions are to die for if you just keep up with the reading and do your papers youll get an A such a awesome prof
Absolutely terrific. He's one of the few professors who's interested in something other than teaching the mind. He wants you to get something profound and spiritual out of the class, and he pulls it off.
He is an excellent teacher, 80% of the course he let you write at home. Even though the books you read are difficult, you feel very comfortable in his class. He is very funny. If English is not your first language you will feel comfortable in his class and not under pressure.
He dresses like a 17th century englishman, he's not always clear, but he's very helpful. If I could grade him I'd give him a C. I recommend him for an easy A.
Awesome Prof! His class consits of lots of communication. Very easy going, great personailty and funny. I definitely recommend this Prof to future students taking ENG 1102.
WHAT CAN I SAY ABOUT PROFESSOR FEASTER? ONE THING HE IS NOT YOUR EVERYDAY PROFESSOR!HE IS WEIRD,DISCUSSIONS IS A MUST AND ETC. NEVERTHELESS, I RECOMMEND ANY STUDENT WHO HAVE TO TAKE ENC1102 TO TAKE HIM. YOU WILL WALK OUT OF THAT CLASS RETAINING SOME SORT OF INFORMATION THAT WAS TAUGHT. I GUARANTEE A PASSING GRADE!!ONE OF THE BEST PROFESSORS EVER!!!
Prof. Feaster is a excellent teacher very understanding to our daily problems that may pop up; problems that may affected our attendance or lack of information and home work, etc. he will give appointments(Be on time) to see him and extended time to make up work. Great and funny teacher will be taking his 1102 class next semester.
Professor Feaster is UNIQUE! He had us sit in what he called the 'circle of love' and strongly encouraged discussions. Most importantly, you'll develop an appreciation for Emersonian views & a deeper connection w/ ur spirituality.I took him about a year ago and I can still remember how he cracks me up from his cooky personality to his strange fashion style!
He's such a cool teacher! He has the strangest sense of humor, and he loves to teach (thats always a good thing).
Prof. is the most hilarious person with a very high sense of humor towards life. I love his oldfashion way and his very historical discussions. If you pay attention, participate, be a scholar and have a positive attitude, you'll definitely pass.
Feaster was my fourth attempt at ENC1101. Very approachable. Through working with him, I was able to earn an A. Made me love English. Best teacher I ever had. I have never learned so much and had so much fun doing it. Very Smart, funny, and understanding. Sometimes it looks like he's high but it's just on life. Took us to the movies and friday's.
The best professor I ever had. I got A's in both compositions. He is very unique, gives the majority of the essays to do it at home. Also you will never feel nervious in his class even though he makes you sit in circle every class. English is not my first language, and i'm so glad i took these course with professor Feaster the best of all.
HE IS A FUN TEACHER, BUT VERY HARD TO UNDERSTAND, NOT VERY CLEAR. HIS CLASS IS NOT THAT EASY!
Must say, a little on the looney side but definitly his weirdness made me interested in what he had to say. He always seemed to have a very good handle at life, and loved his own jokes. Very funny and and great teacher.
TOOK ALL OF THE CLASSES HE TEACHES!!! IF HE TAUGHT MORE, I'D TAKE THEM TOO!!!! HE'S AWESOME!!! GREAT INSPIRING CONVERSATIONS!!!
I would not recommend anyone to take his class. He is very unclear and you do not learn anything. Also I would not say this class is a easy A. You will put in your time and effort into this class and not get the grade you deserve. Do yourself a favor and get another professor.
Prof. Feaster is a great professor and I recommend taking his class. Although he has unique manners to orchestrate his teachings, in the end you should realize that if you did the work he'll give you a great grade. He feeds off of participation and a show of effort - but if you plan to sit back and go for a ride, it may be more of a challenge.
not very good when it comes down to teaching. can't stay on topic. likes to nag you. gives no grade warning. not clear about assignments. terrible handwriting and can't spell. i do not recommend this teacher!!!!!!!!
Strange sense of humor, very specific of what is necessary for papers. Will take again!!
At first, i was very interested in his class, and thought he was a fun teacher. Days passed, and i didn't like his teachings at all... he isn't clear enough on his assingments, and does not get his point across. Jokes around at his own time, and can be harsh on grading, you don't get the grade you truly deserve. I do not recommend this teacher!
I was scared at first, but just join in with his jokes and the class will be a breeze. He expects intellectualism. DO NOT need the book. I would take another class of his in a heartbeat.
this professor is CRAZY, steer clear!
horrible and crazy
very strange guy... did not learn a thing in his class..he would talk about stuff not relevant to class forever....seemed fun and easy at first.......but since you dont learn, its hard.... assignments were not clear.....does not give grade deserved.....otherwise he is a nice guy but not a great teacher...
Very odd guy. Has a strange sense of humor and makes himself laugh. He gets off topic easily and talks a lot about politics, global warming, and drugs (he hates Bush), but he definitely makes class interesting. Pretty easy and easygoing guy. I would recommend him for anyone who isn't really into English but just needs the credit.
This teacher is simply amazing..if your not an idiot you'll pass this class with ease. The only question is how high your grade will be. I took him for 1101 and 1102 and got an A both times. And I barely showed up to class in the beginning but towards the end I actually wanted to go to class. Just join his circle of love and you'll love it.
Mr. Feaster... That name always brings tears to my eyes (literally). He was, and still is, my teacher, my best friend, my father, my conscience, the person to whom I would always go when I feel like the world means nothing. He always knows what to say. I am in the honors society and should be taking only honors classes, but I can't! cont...
Good professor. He is a bit...unique. But through the semester i realized that he is a good teacher and a good person. Some of the literature is difficult to understand, but he'll help you through it. I recommend you take his classes
Feaster is a nice guy with a good sense of humor. You have four essays throughout the class and hes a pretty lenient grader and very helpful is you have any questions. His lectures are extremely boring and not really useful. He makes you buy 3 books, Emerson, Writing Handbook and "Style"...you never even open "Style" so dont waste your money.
Nice guy with very strage sense of humor. He goes off topic a lot. A pretty leniet grader and very helpful. Got an A but didnt learn a thing. The entire class is about a book and his lectures arent useful and extremely boring.
The worst professor i have ever had. He is always off topic and when he is on topic you don't know what he is talking about. I wouldn't recommend his class to anyone.
AWSOME AND WONDERFUL!! HE IS THE BEST!! VERY PASIONATE.
EXCELENT ... this guys great, a very passionate teacher, his eccentricities makes the class all the more interesting ..... want an A and a fun class? ... well go join Prof. Feasters "circle of Love" LOL
Please join the "CIRCLE OF LOVE"!!! Awesome professor, a little cooky.. but FUN! He makes the class extremely interesting and loves what he does. I always laugh in his class and he's really understanding and leniant with his grades. PS- He also loves going to Muvico! Thinks its an LCD trip!!! lol
THE WORST TEACHER I HAVE EVER HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE. HE IS COOKY AND NEVER STIVKS TO THE COURSE LESSON.
He sucks. Big time! Don't ever take his class. He is not a good proffessor and he doesn't know how to teach. He doesn't stick to the syllabus and when ever you try to ask him something he goes off topic and gets upset saying that you were not paying attention.
This dude is a maniac! His movie selections suck and I'm convinced that he was usually on something. The only thing he did for me is ruin the way I watch movies forever.
horrible..
I dont know what everyone is talking about, but his class was good. He is a bit odd, but that's what makes the class interesting, he talks about different things but I guess some people are too narrow minded to comprehend. Overall, I have really enjoyed his class.
ahhh this class was horrible... he talks too much about different topics but i enjoyed watching him although he doesnt really teach anything other than how to interpret shakespeare.
I absolutely love Professor Feaster!!! He is such an amzing person and someone that I high regard. I took him for both ENC1101 and ENG2101 and loved both classes. Yes he is a bit eccentric but thats him and what makes him amazing, a must to take! Join his "Circle of Love" lol!
He is the worst teacher everrrr!!! Gives out an assignment and does not tell you what he expects on the paper until the day before it's due. I am not an over achiever but I would like to know what to write my paper on. He never stays on topic, and you just sit in his "circle of love" all day every day.
This professor based the essay on emerson. so if you didn't understand tough luck.
I LOVE this teacher. I highly recommend him for anyone who loves exploring the mind and really thinking. He's not that difficult of a person to understand, but if you are all about structure, then maybe he's not the right teacher for you. Absolutely one of a kind, he's one of the best teachers I've ever had.
He a great teacher and i can say the first half of class you will not be talking about the work. But he good if you ask questions but gives you a crazy answer. All his essay are based on Emerson so if you don't understand listen very well in class. Take notes when he talks about the book and try to review. His grade contract is really good.
I HATE THIS GUY!!! HE IS OBSESSED WITH THE FEMININE PRINCIPLE. HE GIVES YOU A TOPIC FOR YOUR PAPER AND DOESNT TELL YOU HOW TO DO IT. HE NEVER STAYS ON TOPIC. IF YOU ASK HIM A QUESTION HE DOESNT REALLY ANSWER WHAT YOU ASKED HIM HE ANSWER WHAT HE WANTED THE QUESTION TO BE.. DO NOT TAKE HIM EVER HE IS HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WORST PROFESSOR EVERRR!! IS NOT CLEAR ON ANYTHING HE WANTS FROM A PAPER UNTIL THE CLASS BEFORE ITS DUE WHICH IS TOTALLY UNFAIR..DOESNT ANSWER QUESTIONSS.. AND ALL WE DO IS SIT IN THE CIRCLE OF LOVE AND LISTEN TO HIM TALK NONSENSE ...DONT TAKE HIM!!!!!!!!UNLESS HES YOUR LAST RESORTT
He is very different, but he is also passionate about his art; he knows his stuff. He challenges his students to come out of their comfort zones and explore abstract ideas. His 'circle of love' is suppose to take away the formality of a class room and allow for everybody to be engaged freely with on another. Great class, great teacher!
He talks a lot about different topics and definitely obsessed with Emerson. What I like about him is that he makes you write about what you really think BUT you have to refer it to Emerson.Sometimes he is a little rude and funny.He is not clear at all, you have to guess how he wants the Essays.
excellent instructor, he explains what he is looking for in the essays and he makes it fun. If you write down everything he puts on the board and says you will have all you need to write each essay.
ok so I have to admit this prof is a little weird and you do have to guess what he wants you to do but with some common sense you should have no problem passing.I guess in order to pass you have to know how to write. I am happy to say i passed his class with an A. Not to mention I did the essays the day before they were do =)
Feaster is a wild one!Funny guy,likes to converse,thinks everyone is on drugs lol ask him how he wants the essays to be, do it properly, & youre good to go. Sit in the 'circle of love' and speak your mind, thats what the class is all about.Easy A and good learning experience.
Nice guy. Knows his stuff; very passionate. However, a little "off". Takes offense if you leave class to use bathroom! Topics in class are unrelated to the book/class. We talk more about Obama than movies. Asked for his help, told me to write my ? down. His lectures don't reinforce the many chptrs you have to read. I regret taking this class.
Do not take him! he is the worst teacher ever. Very unclear about what he wants and im not sure if he knows what he wants. DOOOOO NOOOOOOT take Himmmmm. Real talk
horrible teacher, talks about the craziest stuff, if you dont agree with his political views he calls you out. the guy came off as being super anti-American, bashed America every chance he got, unless your a hippie dont take this class. He makes no sense and is possibly out of his mind. horrible teacher and person
Proffesor Feaster is a very intelligent person. Although he is a little difficult to understand sometimes, you will learn from him. He likes people to talk and to interact in the class. If you enjoy talking and having intelligent conversations take him. if you enjoy sleeping and sitting in your seat and texting ur friends dont.
EXTREMELY BORiNG CLASS. FEASTER TENDS 2 GET OFF SUBJECT ALOT. i DUNNO iF iTS JUST ME, BUT i CAN SWEAR HEs ON DRUGS. FUNNY iN HiS OWN WAY, LOVES 2 BE SARCASTiC. HAS THiS THiNG FOR OBAMA & MiCHELLE.TESTS R KiNDA EASY & THE ESSAYS R OKAY. MUST SAY, UNDERSTANDiNG GUY THOUGH. OKAY ENC CLASS
You all need to stop hating on Feaster he is the most open minded teacher in BC. sure he's unclear about what he expects because all he expects is that you show him you learned something new. His midterm and final combined for a total of 7 questions. His final paper was simple and we watched movies in every class. Yea hes a pothead but who isnt lol
One of the best professors you cant take at BC. Makes class very interesting and likes to teach, rather than just grade. Overall easy class, and you'll learn something too. highly recommended.
He is very scattered and it is very hard to get a real answer from him. He is a nice guy i guess but he has a weird way of insulting people nicely. The class is pretty easy but you have to watch every movie, and don't expect any guidance on what to study from him because he wants you to read the whole text book.
this professor is extremely ecentric. He at times drifts away from the overall class schedule which could be a good thing! He is an esay teacher becua-dul-se he respects each individuals view.However, he does grade very particularly when it comes to grammar.I do reccomend him he is awesome!
This man is brilliant. Great teaching style, not an easy A, but you can get one if you're willing to put in some effort. Very nice man.
I had this teacher about a year ago and I can say I learned a lot. He is a unique individual and his class is a fun challenge. He is also very helpful.
HE'S A GREAT TEACHER I GUESS,BUT HE IS SO WEIRD .CLASS IS PRETTY EASY, ONLY 3 ESSAYS AND 1 TEST,NO FINALS.BUT YOU HAVE TO READ THE BOOK,BECAUSE HE WILL NOT TELL YOU WHAT TO STUDY,AND HE ALWAYS GET OFF TOPICS.BUT OTHER THAN THAT HE IS OKAY.
he jumps off subject alot. you will only be graded on 4 things. 3 essays and an exam most likely about a man named Ralph Waldo Emerson so be prepared! Not a fun class.
I would never take this teacher again! He is very scatterbrained to the point where I am pretty sure he is on drugs. He answers questions but at the same time doesnt give an answer. Didnt hate him but certainly DID NOT love him. Take him at your own risk!!!
Negative reviews: written by those who did not take the time to read Emerson and the books required for the class. Feaster is an extraordinary professor, an entertainer, an eccentric, and a magician with words. If you favor the artificial person, do not take Feaster; he is a creative combination of strings, creating his irresistible personality.
Very very strange teacher. loves English more than anyone on this earth and is obsessed with a man named Emerson. overall good teacher even tho he pissed me off a couple of times because he almost never answers your answers the way you want it. most likely has done many drugs in the past..nice person, you'll never forget him..
He was a horrible teacher. He never stayed on topic, when you ask a question about an assignment or something, he would delay and go into a long speech that went off topic and in the end, you never got the answer. He didnt tell you how the assignment was supposed to be until the day before it was due. At the end i never really learned anything
HE IS THE WORST TEACHER EVER!!! I'M WARNING YOU TO RUN. HE FAILED ME BECAUSE I FAILED ONE TEST! HE NEVER STAYS ON TOPIC...HE'S VERY WACKY AND YOU WILL NOT LEARN MUCH. HE'S ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT THE SPIRIT OF THE CLASS AND DOESN'T LIKE TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS..HE'S NOT GOOD AT EXPLAINING ASSIGNMENTS AND GRADES YOU ON STUPID STUFF...LIKE I SAID RUN!!
Use A Writer's Reference for the proper format of a MLA paper; he will not review this. The class is designed for the student to work independently, so read the books required. He will interpret Emerson, but do not be lazy; you must read the essays beforehand to gain more of a grasp of what Emerson is saying. Essays to read: Heroism, & Friendship.
Horrible teacher. Never answer your questions or helps you. I could't take one more minute with him.
Prepare to be interested! Feaster will keep the class entertained, and you sit in a circle. It's a very interacting class, but his class is hard to get an A. You have to really try. I got a B. Loved his crazy class, but not the grade.
His class inspired me to become more of a confident person and to not fear stating my opinions. If you allow yourself to open up to him and Emerson, you will have a life changing experience! You must be willing to work hard in his class, but the dividends are greater than you can imagine. He is an inspirational professor and extraordinary person.
he is crazy in a good way...you will definitely laugh and have fun...listen to what he says and take notes if you ask him to review what a passage means he will and write it down it will help with the essays. overall he is actually a really good teacher
He's a bit weird. Give serious thought to your work and go to the field trip at the end. It was a fun experience.
He uses the Socratic method to teach. Meaning he has you sit in a circle and he will go around the class to see what you have read from your readings. So it's in your best interest to read! I found him very intimidating and very hard to comprehend just what he wanted me to write about, even after having gone to his office hours.
Boring teacher. Boring class. Does not explain assignments clearly and does give you a clear answer when you ask him questions. Never looked foward to his class and the minutes felt like hours when I was in there. He is entertaining at times, as he constantly goes off topic to make silly remarks or make random noises.
I had him for Film as Literature. He's a very nice teacher, and he has the upmost best intentions. The only problem is if you want an A, you're not getting it. B is as far as you will go. And it isn't hard to get the B---people who never spent a moment studying got B's as well. He runs the class with 3 grades: a midterm, a paper, and a final.
Feaster is a nice guy but the words that come out of his mouth are incomprehensible. It was very hard to understand what he was asking for. You have three essays on Ralph Waldo Emerson, and one final 1500 paper comparing Emerson with a film of your choice. Do not recommend him AT ALL.
i went through the entire film class thinking that i was going to fail. i am an student and i was soooo scared that i was going to get a bad grade in this class. by some miracle i walked out with an A. i still haven't figured out how i did it yet. I think it was because he loved my paper on a director
A real nice guy, but these comments aren't lying when they say it's almost impossible to get an A with him. I'm surprised the one below me did. And it's not that it's a hard class, the problem is he doesn't really clearly tell you what he wants. Nothing is multiple choice, everything is written out, so he chooses what he believes to be correct. GL.
he honestly has to be on something. he flips out for the smallest reasons. i cant say i have learned a thing because i havent. wasted my time by taking his class. its a shame. no circles anymore
Honestly this teacher is a horrible choice. He rarely is comprehendible and other times just plain wacky. He is a good guy, but in my honest opinion he really shouldn't be teaching this class. Or if he does he should really work more on actually explaining topics better so that students have a chance passing with an A if they put in all the work.
this guy is on something. so wierd and wacked out. i recommend not taking him enelse you want a good laugh with his spasms and creapy voices that he makes when reading shakespeare. man is so unclear on what he wants. you ask him a question and he will rant for an hour and not answer your question. he was scary looking and creeped me out. DONT TAKE.
Honestly, This is the worst teacher I have ever had. When ever you ask him a question, he acts like it's you who doesn't comprehend anything he says. He's wacky, rude, and never wants to repeat himself. I don't recommend this teacher to anyone. he revolves his whole class around Emerson, and wants everyone to think like Emerson. so pathetic
Feaster is a character. If you are not creative and respectful I do not recommend you taking him. He is a very smart man.. however, if you ask him a question it's almost impossible to get a clear answer. Try to keep your work very personal and different he hates people who stick to the status quo or follow rules.
Definitely a unique character. It's still early in the semester to completely rate his teaching and grading. The majority of the class is having difficulty with his lack of clarity. Many of us are asking him questions pertaining to assignments in which his response is very vague. He seems to genuinely care about our academic success in his class.
Its feaster... Theres no other way to define him. He wont answer any of your questions, you will read emerson all the classes and learn nothing until the last day when you will need to turn in an essay 1500 words long. And there ll be a pop quiz that you ll for sure get an F or a D
I have taken him both ENC1101 and ENC1102. For ENC1101 he was fine, I had no problems and recieved an A. Once I got to ENC1102 it was like everything we did was wrong and his graing was 10x harder. His A is from 96-100, good luck (I got a C in ENC1102 and missed a B by two points...)
I would rather commit suicide that suffer another one of his "classes". The institution that gave him his teaching degree should be burned to the grown. Save yourself.
VERY unclear on his assignments you will find yourself asking classmates what to do. i HATE his enc class, do NOT pick this professor.
Not very helpful at all. Not clear in his assignments. He pretty much never answers your questions. Trust me you do not want to take his class, your going to leave class frustrated everyday.
I actually liked this professor, but honestly you probably wont. He was great to me! He is very misunderstood.
He is a witty teacher his class is set up like a Socratic seminar. In ENC1101 he uses 2 books. 5 Assignments and a final he can never answer questions and when he does they are very unclear. You can make appointments with him which is great! Fun fact he ALWAYS wears purple socks. If you want an A take another teacher.
I do not recommend this class. He is rude and not clear on what he wants from you.
Awful. Unclear about everything and does not explain assignments fully. Avoid this teacher
DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS!!! this professor is not clear at all. i have to take this class again because he does not know how to give direction for assignments. without a doubt worst professor i have ever had in college
AMAZING AND CARING PROFESSOR! It's Feaster, if you are nice to him he will treat you the same. I got a perfect score on the final paper and passed his class with an A.
Terrible teacher. He thinks he's a genius but he went to a decent university if you find out more about him. He is very unclear, and if you ask him any questons, he will pretty much try his hardest to embarrass you to get laughs and make himself feel good.
Awesome professor! He is an intelligent professor and has high expectations for his students. If you develop a relationship with him as a professor, you will do well. Be attentive and be sure to ask questions until you gain a thorough underatanding of the task ahead.
He is a horrible teacher he puts students down because he is "smarter than us" not clear on what he wants us to do. his grading scale is biased if you dont like what he likes you will recieve a d on your assignment. no room for personal opinion. HORRIBLE TEACHER!!!!!
if you hate shakespeare and things that revolve around it isuggest you not take this proffessors class... because you will fail...
I have no idea what he is talking about most of the time. He hardly teaches, yet is a terrible grader..
unclear very random , you will not learn everything is on your own
GREAT TEACHER... EASY GRADE .. YOU HAVE TO WRITE (3)250 WORD ESSAYS AND 1 FINAL PAPER. IT COULD BE HARD TO UNDERSTAND HIM AT TIMES BUT JUST SET UP AN APPOINTMENT. BRING A ROUGH DRAFT TO YOUR APPOINTMENT HE WOULD BE ABLE TO GIVE YOU POINTERS AND CORRECTIONS TO MAKE IT AN "A" PAPER.. HE'S VERY HUMOROUS.
Great professor. He is a tough grader but he's fair. If you make appointments and work hard you can get an A. You also have to get involved with the reading actually care about it, show it through your paper and you will get an A. Also his A is 94-100, B 84-93 and so on. So if you get an A you deserved it trust me.
Ever see the community episode where the crazy teacher says to seize the day? Well this guy is exactly like him. I'd suggest taking a way easier class, this guy told me in reviewing a paper "I guess I wanted you to show me who you really are." Sorry not going to do that. Takes this class probably way more serious than most students but a nice guy.
Feaster is a funny person but the class is a different story. he teaches out of Ralph waldo Emerson essays book and trust me IT IS BORING!!!! if you are into it then take it. google the book first before you pick the class. he is a tough grader! there are no tests or midterms though. he gives short essays each one is words but don't be fooled!
The class is okay, I'm not really sure what I learned tho..
This class was okay. Not enough of a challenge for me. I literally completed all assignements the day before it was due and in an hour and still received an A. I though we were going to explore Shakespeare further , nevertheless the topics would range to anything but. It was a big bore and I did not learn anything.
He's super easy.. There are two 3 paragraph papers that are due and they are super easy. its based on your opinion so there no right or wrong. His personality is actually good and he isn't stuck up. There is NO TEST OR QUIZZES. NO online work. EASY A
There to offer help - if you have initiative to ask and accept his input. Still easy to get a low grade if you don't make the effort.
I advise people not to take this class. This professor doesn't know how to teach and is extremely picky when grading. He does not know to explain well at all.
Just stay away, you'll be frustrated thru the whole semester.
Horrible professor. Only have 3 grades for the class. Two papers and a final. He is very picky and his grading scale is ridiculous! He's very hard to understand and very random. Does not know how to teach Shakespeare.
Professor Feaster is honestly a good person, just not a very good professor. His class grade is based on 3 papers, that's it. And they're not easy. He makes you purchase a Shakespeare book which is what is used to do the papers. He is a very tough grader and critic.
Do not waste your time with this professor, you will not understand him. He does not clarify what he wants in his papers and he's a super tough grader. The class is entirely on Shakespeare. It is a boring topic and your grade is based only on 3 papers. So if you don't do too well on one of them, your grade will be affected.
If you want an A on your papers you have to go to him during his office hours, he is very picky on what he wants and grades hard. This class is not an Easy A
Does not teach very much. I don't really know what I learned in this class. You need to take initiative and go to his office for advice on your papers if you want to get anywhere near a C or B. His grading policies and rubrics are pretty ambiguous and somewhat unfair.
I walk in ENC1101 and the syllabus only said 3 papers and I was going to drop it before I made a C+ on my first paper. His grading is based on what he thinks so be ready to fight for a better grade on what you received. It is not easy to make an A in his class you must work for it and do it the way he wants you to do it. Easy C or B for his class.
OMG I took him for my ENC1102 and this is the worst professor I've ever had... You really don't know what he's asking for in the papers... Worst professor ever, if you can to drop your GPA take this class seriously....
This professor isn't for everyone. If you're interested or good in English I would highly recommend him. To me, the class was pretty easy. Only 2 short papers and one final paper. The class was based around The Essays of Robert Emerson who's a more philisophical figurative kind of writer. Very nice and helpful.
This is a easy class to pass. Make sure you listen carefully to what he is saying and you will be fine.
This professor was life changing to me. He inspired me to read, write and think about what life is truly about. He thought my class about personality types and how to use it as a tool to find the author in you. If you make the effort and visit him during his office hours, you will find out he will go any lengths to help you.
He Helps if needed but kinda hard to understand in my opinion. He is understanding for somethings but not all.
Loved his class. The book he uses is interesting and will make you think. The papers for his class are a page at the most. Tough grader so your paper will need real deep thought and meaning.
He is very friendly and will go above and beyond to help his students IF you seek his help. He is not a tough grader, but he will make you earn your grade. If you're looking for an easy A then he's not the professor for you. Professor Scott encourages you to think outside the box and work on your weak areas as a writer.
I did not understand well the purpose of the class, I was supposed to learn to write essays at a college level, but all we did was read pieces of two books and listen to rap songs by Eminem. His classes were very boring and confusing.
Professor Feaster class at first seemed hard, as it was based on The Essays Of Emerson. It was confusing for me at first because I am not into philosophy/ Shakespeare. Once you speak with the teacher and provide your concerns, you will be fine. No mandatory labs, no online homework, three papers due which does not have to be lengthy.
He means well but I didn't learn a thing in his class. Very tough grader and has no clear teaching style. When he "lectures" its really just him going off on a long tangent about something that doesn't make sense. He will start off talking about the book & end up ranting on politics. On the plus side, no HW & hardly any classwork the whole semester
Sometimes it will be had to get straightforward answers.
One of the nicest prof but also one of the worst Wud talk for the whole class about nothing. You will not learn a thing but make sure u do ur best on the few assignments and papers he gives out.I'm an A student and he gave me my only B that I ever received and I was lucky to get that by getting an 80 bcuz I did okay on the final paper. DONT TAKE!!
Very kind professor. He speaks a lot but is nice and willing to help if you need it. Essay's aren't too hard if you read the instructions carefully. Class consists of a total of 5 assignments, so you have to really do well on all of them to get a good grade. He is very lenient and understanding.
This is one professor that will make you WORK for your grade. I passed with a C and honestly I couldn't be happier. We had 3 essays in total and I struggled with 2 and he's so nice he actually made time for me to retake them. He's really sweet and will work with you but doesn't make what he wants clear and answers your question with a question.
Very boring class, assigns 3 books to read. He is a very sweet professor but he has trouble keeping the class engaged and interested in what he teaches.
He is a great professor if you are into old literature. But sometimes he can be rude toward students who disagree with his opinion or the point of view of the books that are require for his 1101 class . He is very hard to understand in every lecture.
Very hard to understand, does not give feedback clearly, is off topic always, refuses to record class lectures, unreasonable, unstructured, no lesson plan, does not give examples, overall would not recommend for first time college students!!!!!!! usually only 1 out of 23 students will be able to figure out his writing style.
Mr. Feaster tends to go off topic quite frequently, his grading criteria is not the clearest in any way and hes very critical when grading your papers. Hes very caring and will try to help you with whatever you need but he will never make it easy for you. This is a grade you have to work hard to earn and if you dont, you might not pass.
Oh boy where do I start, this professor speaks in vague, unclear, and abstract language. His grading criteria are not based on objective goals, but whatever he feels like giving your grades. He NEVER gives clear directions for the assignments outside of some vague descriptions. Please, if you can, do NOT take this professor, your GPA will suffer.
DO NOT PICK THIS PROFESSOR. The only reason I picked him is bc I saw good reviews. BUT it seems that it's totally the opposite !! He probably wrote those reviews because my classmates and I are suffering for our GPA. He does not care AT ALL about your grade and does NOT want to help. He grades to whatever he feels like it and makes FUN OF YOU.
DO NOT LISTEN TO THE GOOD REVIEWS !! IS FAKE!!!!!!!! VERY VAGUE, UNRESPECFUL PROFESSOR, NO LESSONS PRE PLANNED. WITHDRAW AS SOON AS YOU CAN.
OH HELL NO. NO CLEAR GRADING CRITERIA DOES NOT CARE ABOUR YOUR GRADE WILL NOT HELP AT ALL. PROBABLY AT THE START TO FAKE IT BUT AT THE END HE WILL MAKE YOU FAIL.
This professor literally made me cried, I care about my grade so much and he does not want to help. Very disappointed because I picked him for his good reviews. :( not what I expected. I'll not even waste my time for him, not worth it. NO
This professor is very vague, generalized instructions, leading the students to never fully understand assignments. Afterward, he berates his students for not understand HIS MIND. Berating us for mistakes does not allow us to learn. His feedback is strictly criticism and nothing constructive that we can use to improve with. DO NOT CHOOSE HIM !!
DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR, HE IS NOT GOOD AT HIS JOB AT ALL. HE DOES NOTHING TO HELP STUDENTS AND HIS GRADING CRITERIA ARE INCONSISTENT AND INCONSIDERABLY HARSH. TAKE HIS CLASS AND YOU MIGHT FAIL. ONLY 1 STUDENT OUT OF 30 IN HIS CLASS ACTUALLY GETS A 100% WHILE EVERYONE ELSE MOSTLY GETS 70% AND 60%.
DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS He is an awful professor that does not provide any constructive criticism. His directions are very vague and gets upset when we ask for clarification. He is also very disrespectful to his students in class. Wastes a lot of class time (20+mins) getting mad at people for not showing their faces on zoom which is very aggravating
Dr. Feaster is a gem to discover. If you ask for help and he knows you want to learn he will be 100% on your side. I learned a lot from my personality test and how he applies it to writing. The books he suggested were both enchanting and I enjoyed reading them.
The smartest people were struggling
He's teaching style is confusing. Do not take him if your native language is not English.
