Hes a real human - very refreshing. Full of stories and he seriously knows what hes teaching. Hes tough but should be. If you take this class you will know how to ace essays in the future. It is worth redoing work if you want to increase a grade.

Reading the comments made me sad... maybe one person in my term didn't like the class, but they were unhappy with everything. I loved this class the teacher actually taught and did it with humor and real life stories that helped the learning stick. There aren't many teachers this good left.

Comment:
He is arrogant, but he knows what he is talking about. The lessons you learn here can be applied to all of your tests and essays in the future. He has a tip about using cue cards to track your "quotes" for your final essay and it can really make your life easier. Using that tip I pounded out my essay in a night and got a good mark.

Comment:
Worst prof. I've ever had. He spends almost the entire class talking about how great Bill Jensen is, and how stupid all first year students are. If you make too many mistakes on your paper he will stop reading it, and refuse to really help you on anything.

Comment:
..Sure ask questions, but he wont give you a clear answer. He's highly intelligent, but impossible to please - I rewrote essay after essay and still only got a C+. In the end, I feel like I learned nothing. I used to think I had a firm grasp on English. It used to be my best subject.... Thanks for lowering my GPA

You are a terrible teacher, who doesnt give good help to students that need it, and your requirement that you want inlcuded in assignments are ridiculous. You just enjoy to make students cry and feel bad about themselves.

Comment:
In this class I felt terrified and intimidated. It seemed like in Bill's class he picked his favourites early on, and if you weren't a favourite then watch out! He is a brutal marker who likes things done his way or not at all. Also, he told the class that we were idiots. I don't even know what to say about that.

You will love this class if you love listening to an old guy with a ponytail ramble on for 90 mins, plus he is 'always right'. "Mr./Ms. X will you please read me your theisis?" "This essay...". "No, wrong you did this, this and this wrong, yours needs a lot of work and you should probably just give up english for life"

I thought that he was very scary. I was initially very afraid of Jensen but he helped me out whenever I needed it. His class is not a easy one though. But in the end he will improve your writing skills

Comment:
Run away! He's not helpful at all and actually somewhat frightening. This class was supposed to be a beginner's class but he expected students to know everything and be able to spit out great poetry. This class is AWFUL if you're a shy person...he randomly picks someone to put on the spot (don't make eye contact!). His only saving grace is his wit.

Did really well in the class, but felt that he really didn't care to help me when I asked for it. He was condescending when asked questions. Definately choses favorites. Overall his clear cut way of teaching the essay is extremely useful in other classes, and the class was enjoyable to attend.

he's just so full of himself. I don't think that I've learned something from his class. He always try to threaten students and is constantly off the topic. wouldn't recommend this class..

Kinda full of himself, yet i feel i learned from his class. Overkill on his hippie past, still a number of entertaining stories. Remember him talking a lot about Buddha, Bob Dylan & psychedelics. Interesting stuff. Sure, would recommend his class.
