Comment:
Horrible teacher. The class had a lot of reading which was enjoyable but we almost never focused on it in class discussions. He would ramble off about useless information. A very nice guy nonetheless, although a bit awkward. If you like structured classes, I would recommend against taking one with him.

WORST CLASS I'VE EVER TAKEN. The first class I'm actually terrified that I might not pass. He is the WORST lecturer of all time and assigns easily 300 pages of reading A WEEK. Please for the love of all that is good and holy in this world DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASSES!!!!

Expect lots of ums and ahs, harsh glares, militaristic style stammering and flapping motion with hands. He seems to care alittle too much, ABOUT EVERYTHING.AT times a decent guy tot alk to, but can be confusing. Ultra-into himself though. Not that recommended.You may hate the class.

Not the best at public speaking but he is extremely knowledgeable and cares about his students if they care about learning. If you aren't going to read/try in the class then this is not the class for you. If you like ancient history, then this man is someone who has a wealth of knowledge and is willing to share. Take his class!

Seriously this guy is the worst. Dont take his class. Every negative comment is true, avoid him even if it means you need to take an extra semester to graduate.

As an exchange student I found Dr. Caner an excellent lecturer. He also loves his subject. However, he betrays real snobbishness now and again, but who doesn't?

Just awful, really. He is the least eloquent man int he world, and his lectures are structureless ramblings constantly interrupted by his constant stammering and "uh"s and "um"s. You have to go to the lectures, because his powerpoints don't have any real or helpful information. Avoid this professor.

Do not take a class with this man!!!!! He will bore you, and if he sees you getting bored, he admitted that he weill make the class even more boring for you. The writing assignments are rediculous. The mid-term and final were rediculous. The amount of reading was rediculous. If you take this class after reading this, you fail as a human being

One of the toughest classes I've ever taken. The material was easy, IF someone else taught the class. The difficulty of this class was solely to do his teaching. His study guides are some-what helpful, yet when it comes to the exam the material is completely different. Stay away from his class!

A lot of students tend to give Professor Caner a bad wrap. He is a difficult teacher and he seems intimidating BUT he is not mean. He is socially awkward, but he wants to help you!As long as you go to class and do the readings you'll do fine :) He is really a good guy. And he's surprisingly funny if you just give him a chance :)

AVOID TAKING A CLASS WITH THIS GUY AT ALL COSTS. Seriously. Awful organization- you take basically all the notes from his ramblings. Unbelievably high expectations- the final (50% of the grade) consisted of 3 IDs and 4 long essays which he expects to be 5-6 blue book pages long. Way too much assigned reading. Terrible, terrible class overall.

Comment:
You either love or hate this guy. He's a tough teacher for sure, and he keeps you on your toes by randomly calling on students. Typically I hate this type of teacher, but in Caner's case, he really does a good job teaching his subjects. He may be a little snobby, and sometimes cranky... but he teaches thoroughly and does a great job.

I think he may have trouble interacting with people. Maybe he just needs a girlfriend. I appreciate his love for history though and find him quite attractive.

He berates students publicly in class after they give presentations. He knows a lot about the time period he teaches but unfortunately he does not have the personal skills to interact well with the students.

Comment:
He sucks. He doesn't teach - everything I learned in this class, I learned from the book (and yes, I obsessively go to class). He must think that yelling Greek words at a student makes the words easier to translate. He'll never give you help with words you don't know, but he'll interrupt you to read the easy words. Nice guy, I guess, but bad prof.

He is awful, I wish I never took his class, I regret it every day. He is not at all helpful, and I just want to cry when I walk in his class, I hope he see's this too, maybe he can improve into a person
