He's a really great professor. He really knows his stuff and wants you to do well. It's super important that you go to class every day, because that's where you get the majority of the test answers. Only problem is that it's hard to pull your grade up if you bomb one test. It's a really informative class.

To do well, you have to learn his style. Don't over study, just take the best notes you can and study them. Most of what you need to know for tests and quizes is what he says in class. It really helps to go to two different classes of his to hear his lectures twice, that's what I did and it helped so much.

Brother Johnson is great. If you come to class prepared and take good notes, it's an easy A. The only reason I got a B is because I didn't do that for the first two quizzes, but he tells you everything that you will need to know in lectures so don't skip too much! Loved this class.

If you go to class and take notes, it's an easy A. Everything on the tests and quizzes are what he writes on the board. All other points are attendancereading based.

I LOVE Brother Johnson! I also took him for New Testament part 1. He is such a genuinely kind person and he wants to get to know all of his students and remember their names. He is very clear on his lectures and study guides about what is needed to do well on exams. Take his class! I learned so much from him and it didn't require too much work.

Professor Johnson, despite his enthusiasm for the gospel, tends to come up with his own, very specific interpretations of the text. I feel like I haven't learned much about the Book of Mormon at all. I have heard that he's better with New Testament courses, but this class was very frustrating.

I took both the 1st and 2nd half of BOM and the 1st half of NT from Johnson. For the 1st half of BOM, I had a rougher time because I was falling asleep in class and not taking notes. The 2nd half was much easier once I realized that I had to take notes on lectures and specifically whatever he writes the board! Do that and you'll get an A easily!

Bro. Johnson is just awesome. He's a funny, easy-going older man who loves the gospel. He knows his stuff and cares for his students. Tests are super easy, never DIDN'T get over 90%--he gives a study guide for each one that is specific so you know what's on the test. Just read a few chapters each day, go to class and take notes, and you'll do fine.

Brother Johnson is absolutely hilarious. This class completely changed my life. He always has a new, interesting insight, which drastically changed and strengthened my testimony. He admits when he doesn't know the answer, & he always backs what he teaches with what prophets have taught. Loved this class. I never wanted to miss, and I'm a skipper.

Bro Johnson is a great teacher. He has some hilarious comments, and most of what he discusses in class is on the test. A few things are from the reading and further individual comprehension, but he usually clarifies in class. 4 tests throughout the semester, plus the midterm and final, but besides those the only other grades are reading journals.

Bro Johnson was a great guy. Overall, he made us take 4 quizzes (tests) and a midterm and a final. The midterm and final were easy cuz it had the same questions as the quizzes. He teaches his opinion, which is kind of annoying. Make sure to write down everything he says, even quotes from bretheren cuz it will be on the tests.

Brother Johnson's class was amazing. He is such a funny guy, a cute grandpa type. His class is extremely easy. Come to class and take good notes. He gives a study guide for each test including the midterm & the final, do the study guide and you will ace every test. HW is reading in the BOM and then writing a paragraph each time about what you read.

I love Bro. Johnson! As long as you attend lecture, take notes, and do the readings (aka daily scripture study) you will be fine. Do the study guide and you will pass the test with no problem. He is super funny and has a lot of knowledge about the BoM. I would recommend him to a friend in a heartbeat. Do what you're asked and you will get an A

The best professor I've had in the Ancient Scripture department. He helps you understand the teachings of the Book of Mormon, and it's not awful. He gets that religious education ISN'T your life. Pay attention in class, write down what he puts on the board, review the study guides, and you've got an A.

Professor Johnson is the most caring, sweet, and down -to-earth guy! He's that older, cute kind of man and he connects with his students very well. He's really chill but expects his students to work for their grade. ATTENDANCE MATTERS. He's pretty funny too! A lot of corny jokes that really break the ice. His lectures are great! Definitely a fave!

I LOVE STANLEY JOHNSON!!!!!! He is probably the kindest soul I have ever met in my life. Do you love your grandpa? Well after you meet Stanley Johnson you will wish he was your grandpa. He isn't that old he is just so nice and caring. Great class to build your testimony but still get an easy A. Would definitely take a class from him again.
