Comment:
I took him in Spring of 2015. for 098 and 108. I would definitely say a GREAT teacher hands down. However, if you're a lazy student who is looking to get easy As, then do NOT take this class because he expects a lot from his students. He also explains crearly and is very organized and difinitely prepares you for 101 because I had an A in Eng 101!

I think he is great teacher but you have to put forth the effort. I loved his class participation matters and be prepared to read. He is very helpful he gives you time to do essays and he don't just give you an essay without giving you a outline. I would definitely take his class again.

Worst teacher, he will fail you if you don't get a "P" on a few of his essays. He's very demanding and impossible to pass. I took another 098 teacher and passed with no problems.

He's a difficult grader, but if you truly want to improve your writing abilities, he's a great choice. I'm proficient at writing, but my essays had more marks than a beaten step-child. However, my ability to write has tremendously approved. To make it easier on yourself, FOLLOW HIS OUTLINE. He's pedantic.

It's imposible to pass the class. He wants you to write everything that in his outline which at most time is 7 paragraphs essay. His very hard grader and will fail you even if you do all the work and try your best!

It's impossible to pass the class. My writing was good before. But in these class he only wants you to write about what he outlines specifically. One essay after the next. Very hard to pass if at all.

AWESOME TEACHER ! I went from being HORRIBLE in writing to GREAT. He is VERY easy . Gives you plenty of time to study, write papers, etc. And quizzes are always open book! Sources are very cheap and he supplies us sources when we don't have it. I would take him again ! But he suggested I try other professors to learn different styles of writing :(

He is a hard grader but very helpful.If you ask him he will assist you. At first I didn't get him but being out of school for 15yrs who will. In the end I passed with flying colors thanks to a teacher who cared. He helps those who show interest in learning not just passing.

He was a hard teacher but taught a lot and really cared about our education. Ask him for help and participate. It says on the syllabus if you go to class and are never late you already get a better grade.

Anyone who has something bad to say about Mr. Elyshevitz way of teaching isn't ready for college. The books used in his class arent exactly english textbooks but are helping in learning across dicipline.I am barely passing his class, but have made progress in my wriing and papers. He cares about students only if they care about themselves.

He is one of the best teachers you will ever have. He makes learning fun. You need to put in the effort and come to class. He will help you only if he see's you are trying. Take this prof. you will have a new outlook on learning. It's much more than just another english class!
