He's a pretty good teacher. Just make sure you write rough drafts for his essays so he can let you know how to fix it to make it better.

Good teacher, but makes you actually have to learn grammar.

ok teacher i guess. he didnt teech meee good english thow. one flaw he has is that he loves the sound of his own voice and how intelligent he is. I GET IT,YOUR SMARTER THAN A BUNCH OF TEENAGERS WHO GO TO A COMMUNITY COLLEGE!!!!

Good class except for the grammar...do the rough drafts. You will read some pretty interesting books.

Very Very good professor. He's very informative and he truly cares about his students...

kinda funny and very helpful

Pretty random essay topics and some are kind of difficult. His class lectures are interesting but he gets off track a lot of the time. Sometimes there is no point in coming to class though because we don't do anything during them especially when we have a essay assignment, which is basically the class: essay writing.

The class is fairly difficult but it is also very relaxed environment that is good for discussing whatever topic. He makes very clear what he is looking for on assignments and never fails to get an uproaring laugh from the class.

He's the most interesting, personable and helpful professor I've ever had. His class was great fun and I'm very glad I met him. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!

I had his English 300 and 302 class. He cares about his students just don't mistake his kindness for weakness. He is extremely intelligent he has street smarts and book smarts . Coming to every class does help your grade. God Bless Mr. Kahl.

I have no idea why he is teaching English instead of Economics. Most of his assignments involve the economy in some way, with very high word counts for some of the papers. Avoid unless you love economics.

he is a really great techer, he cares about his students and them actually learning something. he can be dry at times but you should still take him...

I look professor Kahl for 300 and 302 and I recommend him to anyone who is interested in politics or economics. He's a pretty laid back guy and his grading isnt too hard but his subject matter can be daunting to some students. He's also really funny if you get his humor and is more than willing to help students who show some initiative. He's good!

Kahl is a good professor. Interesting class. It became more of a discussion class, I really liked that aspect. I was challenged to think about a topic in more depth and consider how and why I put evidence into an essay. The subject matter wasn't my favorite, but it was informative, and there were a lot of areas that could be expanded on in writing.

Kahl is very motivated and helpful. I took his hybrid class and we meet once a week. He does go off topic at the beginning of class and loves to talk sports and current news. Books that were difficult to understand he explained. He was very lenient on grades; if you write your essay early enough and email him he'll help correct it before grading!

Extremely helpful,funny most of the times. Give lot of reading stuff but final is not in the class. Very picky but very easy while grading.Do all HW and u ll get an easy A

Easy fellow. Take his class and do HW should get an easy A

Great

Dude is chilled. He tries to be funny. He gets a good grade for effort (lol). But its pretty easy, do the work and you'll be good foo.

Definitely recommend for those who can already write. The process of 'learning' is pretty much non-existent here. Just complete your assigned papers & answer prompts. Very fair grader. Constantly digressing into other areas of discussion like baseball & news. If you're a C student, you should get a C & if your an A student, you should get an A.

This class is critical thinking. It's not basic english in which you learn to write a 5 paragraph essay high school style. Don't hate because you thought you were a good writer or you don't agree with the professor or he finds fallacies in your paper. He's a really smart guy who has a lot of interesting things to say. He's easy.

Really enjoyed this professor. before I took this class I never learned how to properly write an essay. He hones your critical thinking and is entertaining in class. I learned a lot.

This instructor is very relaxed. Offers students opportunities to get a good grade by allowing proof reads, so students get feedback on paper before the final handoff. Use this! Don't take his comments personally he is supposed to let you know where you can impove. I enjoyed the class, he has a good sence of humor.

he's a chill dude

He is very funny, very chill.

This guy is really smart. If I remember correctly, said he was a chemist and decided to switch careers. Funny guy, great interesting discussions in class, although he does digress a lot. DO the papers early, send them in for review, and do well on the quizzes. Great teacher overall.

Took his class over the summer. Fairly easy. Only had to write 3 papers; 3,5 and 10 pages I think. Really relaxed teacher. He has most of his class work posted on his website, and as long as you turn in your work I don't think you had to come to class. I will most likely try to take him for 302 as well.

This guy is amazing! He is beyond organized. Work is posted on his online website. As an ENG major his reading load wasn't a lot to me but he has 3 books. But the books he chooses are good reads! Plus you can get the books at the public library or online for super cheap. Hats off to Prof. Kahl for being an outstanding instructor.

Kahl is one of the best/funniest/smartest/most insightful professor I have ever had. Definitely take him you will not regret it. It's Hard work but he does his best to inform his students and I swear you will leave his class feeling like a different and much more intelligent person.

Tim is a good professor, the 302 course I took wasn't about getting better at writing but getting better at critical thinking and how people are persuaded to act and think. He goes over some eye opening subjects about the economy and self-interest. He does go off topic occasionally but it is usually pertinent to the subject. Highly Recommended!

Kahl is hilarious. Enjoyed class but usually went off topic (in an entertaining way). Really smart dude. Grades leniently. Must be self motivated to keep up. Likes adding lots of liberal bias in to lecture (I didn't mind). Lots of reading books that aren't really interesting but I still enjoyed the class. I would recommend taking Prof. Kahl.

I'm really glad I took Tim for 302. His class will definitely help you think more analytically and critically about current events/issues. If you are willing to have your opinions and/or preconceived notions challenged, take Tim. I never missed a class even tho attendance really isn't required.

very enjoyable class for those who choose to participate. lectures can be fun if you choose to participate but most of the class sits there with their faces in their cell phones.. too bad for them. Professor Kahl is very talented and very interested in student success.

He's a really laid back professor. If you need clarification, always ask! He'd be there to answer any questions. If you work hard, you'd receive an A. If you don't put in too much work, you'd pass but not with a high grade.

Prof. Kahl is a very intelligent and hilarious person. He's very laid-back and does not check attendance. Although he may crack jokes most of the time, his insights about things are profound and meaningful. Would definitely take his classes again.

I've taken Kahl twice and I think he's great. Book choices aren't the easiest, but they're very insightful. The big thing is that you get out what you put in. Its easy to make the most out of class time by asking questions and discussing with him. Work hard and participate, you will find his classes very rewarding.

Enjoyed this class a lot, learned a lot from the readings and over all, very laid back. Keeping up is very hard though once you fall behind in reading because the class takes no breaks. I did enjoy coming as often as i could just because the discussions were so fun! The readings are also very very insightful!

I just adore Professor Kahl. He is hilarious and very laid back. I loved that he created a comfortable environment where you knew you wouldn't be judged based on your opinion. I learned a lot from him both as a student and as a person. You should take him if you are self-motivated. Don't take him if you're a slacker, you won't make it to the end.

His lectures may get you tired, but it is genuinely interesting. Before he grades papers, he lets you submit in a nongrade rough draft so he can fix your paper before submitting it in. Took him for summer, so no idea what it'd be like during regular semesters. But readings every night with dozens of questions. Easy class if you put in the work.

If you're willing to do the work its pretty easy. you read 4 books and write essays on each with given prompts. laid back class and his lectures do get good sometimes. also very funny if the class is cool.

You show up, sit there, and listen to him rant for an hour, then go home. Lectures are entirely economics based, and he offers decent insights to the economic history and trends of this country. Grades essays and homework easily. You can use phone, play games on laptop, or do homework you should have done earlier while in class. No plan, just rants

Lecture is not mandatory, but coming to class and reviewing submitted rough draft papers allows you to see what you should and shouldn't do. The class is an easy A as long as you just follow his criteria and try. Allows you to be on your phone, etc. Comes 7-10 min. late to class.
