The class was amazing, the books and the stories we read were really cool, and the essays were really easy to write.

- the essay outline is not detail-oriented with a lack of professional communication - the instructions are not clear - teacher rambles too much about irrelevant course work - does not engage with the class and ask students questions - lack of focus when teaching - teaches more at a High School level than college level

Loved this teacher. He gives advice, is always available, likes when people comment on the readings, he's nice and energetic. Always a pleasure to walk into his class. We had to write 3 essays, but he always made sure to make them interesting and even funny to do. For one had to make it look like a blog article, with picture, hyperlinks, hashtags, etc! And for the final essay, we could make it shorter and include a piece of art instead of writing a whole essay. Apart from the readings (which were fairly short) we didn't have any homework. Just make sure to do the readings, that's the only thing he does joke about, otherwise... "YAHOUU" as he said hahahah

I this teacher's personality, he's always full of joy and happy to come teach. He's really helpful and he makes the class really interesting. He's so passioned of the books, the stories, the songs and the movie and it's really contaminating. I wouldn't mind at all taking his class again (I wish I could)
