His class was so fun. Lots of class discussion. His uses interesting methods to get his point across. If you are looking for excitement in English I definitely recommend Seth.

his sense of humor scared me

Seth is an awesome teacher he makes English fun and writing as well. He really enjoys his work I can tell. If you want a good English teacher I reccomend Seth he's great. Lol hes the only teacher I know with long hair

Mr. Martin is awesome. He is very organized and teaches with style. If you don't like English,but it's your requirement,take Seth and you'll be OK.

What a man! I was not expecting my eng. prof. to be like Seth. He is funny and interesting for the most part. I'm glad I have him for a teacher; it's my fav class this sem.

I had a very good time in class. The subject matter covered in class held my interest. Seth does a good job keeping you interested.

seth made english 102 more than just writing. He is an extremely intelegent man and it shows in his subject matter. Interesting essay assignments. It was a fun class.

Very funny and entertaining however he grades ridiculously hard. I've never struggled in Engilsh until this class. He is very tough on grading papers, it's a lot of work and hard to get an A but he's definitly nicer and more interesting than register. The only thing is he doesn't give enough time to write papers so be prepared to work your butt off

seth was a great teacher. i think what other students dont like about him is that he expects college quality work out of his students and most of them just are not up that level. it's not his fault that his students are lazy.

sETH IS ONE OF THE BEST TEACHERS AT HACC. HE'S VERY DEDICATED AND ENTHUSIASTIC, MAKING CLASS EVER INTERESTING. IS A PERFECTIONIST, BUT HELPFUL WHEN NEEDED

Best English teacher ever!! Very straight forward with what he wants, assignments easy if you pay attention in class, take notes, do the homework. This class was a very good spring-board into the next class, helped me out so much! Very nice man, very helpful all-round. Would definately take again!

Seth is very tough on his students because he wants them to do well. Unlike many of the professors at HACC, he sees his courses as stepping stones to college. If you take Seth, be prepared to work and not goof off, he takes his job (educating his students) very seriously.

Seth is a great teacher, he is very eccentric and fun. He does seem to play favorites but not purposefully and no more then anyone else. I would recommend this teacher for any of you other eccentrics out there.

Really knows and cares about English; gives great book recommendations! Always makes himself available for clarification on assignments. (Someone commented that his swearing was "unprofessional." This is college, not high-school! Seth is a real person and real person sometimes use profanity.)

Seth is a great professor!! He is funny, quirky, and has an off the wall sense of humor that is quite endearing. He is will always help you with whatever you need (ideas, classwork, etc.) He is, however a perfectionist, so be prepared to work your ass off, especially when he knows you have the ability to do better (and he always does!)

Seth is a good teacher. It is hard work and you have to pay attention. He gets frustrated by students that just came from high school and haven't realized it yet. His criteria is hard, but if you pay attention you'll do fine!

Seth is very enthusiastic about teaching. He keeps the class moving.

Seth was a great teacher. HE is very helpful if you ask. He assigns a fair amount of assignments, but we are going to school to learn. THE NOVEL SUCKED...but oh well. As long as you do your assignments and all that is required, you will do fine.

Seth demands quality work and that can be challenging for some students. I don't advise taking him if you're looking for an easy grade. However, if you show interest in the material and ask questions he is eager to help. I think Seth is a great teacher, but all good instructors let you know when your work is not up to college standards.

enthusiastic about teaching, energy level is high. alot of writing and deadlines. he can be boring at times, but he's a pretty funny guy. definitely a hard grader on papers.

Seth has a reputation for not giving A's. I was one of the exceptions, but still disliked his class. He was helpful if you went to him for help. Loved the book "Freakonomics" that he used.

Seth loves literature, and he tries to pass it on to his students. He is hard on grading, and it is true that he will not give you an A. I took 3 different classes with him because I loved the way he teaches, and he encouraged me to be a better writer. I have reccomended him to many friends.

You will get back what you put into Seth's classes. If you like Eng Lit and are prepared to work hard for your grade, don't hesitate to take him. Very helpful outside of class if you have a willingness to accept criticism and want to learn. Best prof I had at HACC.

Seth was a good teacher. Very hard with grading. A lot of textbook work and essay writing but i learned a lot from his class. He expects good quality work so be prepared to work your ass off!!!

I tested into Eng 101 never having written an essay in my life and while Mr. Martin is Not an easy grader, I ended up with an A. He did come off like a hard ass in the beginning, but I bugged the crap out of him during office hrs and he seemed to respect the dedication. If ur goofing off or slacking, he will call u out or kick u out for sure!

He was overall a good professor. As long as you try hard and show him that you care about the class, he will respect you. He hates it if you text in class and not use your time wisely. I thought the class was fairly easy.

Seth is very enthusiastic about Shakespeare so it's a great class if you are also interested in Shakespeare. Grading is pretty hard but if you actually try then you'll do well. The only issue, is that some of the subject matter is subjective and he treats it in an objective manner. It's like arguing about poetry.

Mr. Martin is very helpful, if you make the effort to ask for help. This class involves a lot of reading, it took me hours to complete reading assignments, (because I had a hard time understanding/follow what I was reading.)

I loved this professor and thought he was an amazing teacher. He is very hard and expects you to work for your grade. If you love English and want to get better at it, def. take his class. I wouldn't take his class though if you do not have a passion for writing.

This was one of the hardest classes I took at HACC. There is a lot of reading and writing involved. I wanted to drop the class many times but decided to stick with it, and became a better writer and critical thinker as a result. If you want to challenge yourself and become a better readerwriter definitely take this professor!

Prof. Martin made literature fun for a technical writing major. He has a clear passion about the material and encourages you to feel the same. Journals, tests, quizzes, and papers are no problem as long as you read and follow criteria. PARTICIPATE IN CLASS! It's incredibly rewarding and Prof. Martin will appreciate it greatly.

Not a hard class. At times he can be confusing. Tries to be funny with his goofiness. Must read the book because he probably will give a pop quiz, if nobody is talking about what they had read. But overall it's an easy class. But be ready to write papers back to back.

One of the best classes I have ever taken! Seth has a great sense of humor and work ethic. He is enthusiastic and extremely knowledgeable about literature. He challenges you to be a better writer, reader, and thinker! The assignments are interesting and inspiring. Not a class for lazy people!

I always looked forward to his class. He was very easy to talk to and energetic, eager to teach.

I felt nervous to take this professor because of previous reviews, but; grading criteria was always clear, notes were posted daily, he was available for answering questions (clearly, too), he allowed collaboration with other students, grading was fair, there were daily pop quizzes on reading, but, overall he was a good professor.

A wonderful professor, most reviews are inaccurate.

Professor Martin is an easy-going, what you expect kind of English Prof. His essays aren't too terrible, and the discussions in class are always chill. He gives good feedback, emails quickly, and is always available for questions. He is always super enthusiastic and cracks jokes all class. If I have the chance to take him again, I definitely will.

His class was fun. Grading is clear, and this professor is so nice. I would take him again.

I had him as a professor for both ENG101 and ENG102 and he is very good. He does require a lot of essays, so if you don't like writing then I can see you having trouble. That being said, his criteria is clear and he will go over it several times during class. I have seen my writing improve greatly after taking his classes.

I read these reviews before classes began, and honestly he's not nearly as bad as everyone says. He's a super nice guy, tries to make class entertaining, and although there's a lot of writing, it's really not difficult work at all. I wasn't feeling well one day, and he was nice/told me to feel better when he emailed me back. He's really not bad.

Prof. Martin is respectful, kind, approachable, understanding, descriptive, and dramatic (in the very best way). He keeps his students involved and is always open to questions. I signed up to have him again for my next English class.

I wrote the first paper, got a C, but was told that I'm 'a good writer.' Yes I know that, but my grade didn't reflect that. The second paper was written with rigorous effort and editted by my girlfriend, a pretty, smart valedictorian English major. 11/12 with positive comments all over. I talked to him and I lost a point because "🤷🏻" (Martin).
