I had him for Religious Traditions of the World and it was a pretty chill class. Every week, he assigns a reading or a film and you have to write a 250 word paragraph on what you found interesting about it. It’s a 3 hour class every week so you have a lot of time to get the homework done, each homework counts for 1% and there’s 10 in total. There’s 3 multiple choice test and a final essay. Honestly, as long as you revise and listen in class you’ll do really well. He’s a super nice teacher and always there to help. His class was pretty interesting too but I won’t lie there have been moments where I fell asleep but that’s not on him, a 3 hour class is just exhausting. He always gives a 15 minute break though which is nice. If you’re looking for an easy intro class with a chill teacher, I definitely recommend him.

Unlocking the World Spirit was an easy class tbh. It didn't bore me out. But there are tons of readings to do. I highly advise doing the homeworks - it helps to study easier. Some works are worth bonus points. Good luck! This teacher is pretty chill and funny.

I took knowing the body and it was super interesting and easy. Tests and assignments are super easy, you only have to read the material.

Best teacher ever! His class is super interesting. He is a teacher who wants his students to think and learn rather than cram. Definitely recommend this teacher!
