In response to an earlier rating which commented on this prof not being able to give out too many A's, this is a YU policy and not reflective of this prof in particular. As far as teaching style, he is extremely nice, helpful and genuinely wants his students to do well and become better writers. If you take this class, TALK TO HIM ABOUT EVERY PAPER BEFORE YOU SUBMIT IT. This is a great way to make sure he will like what you are writing. While the classes themselves may be boring, as long as you pay attention for part of them and make some contributions, you should be fine, especially because much of the lecture is rehashing old ideas. | |
