I had Mr Silverman for sociology and it was one of my favorite classes I took at tech! Pay attention in class, review the notes he gives out and write down and review all the questions from jeopardy before tests and you will be good. Do NOT leave his papers until the last minute. The class is fun so enjoy it!!!!

The notes from class are so important! They contain most of the information you will ever need. Also, this class has a minimal amount of homework, so be grateful for that.

Mr. Silverman is VERY enthusiastic about teaching his class. All his explanations are crystal clear. Take advantage of all his knowledge. He also stays for tutoring every single day!
