He is an amazing professor, he cares about his students and wants to see all of us succeed. He makes class interesting and talks about his experiences in other countries to help make connections. In my opinion, he has made a dumb LAC class worth it. I definitely recommend taking his class.

Professor Klein is a real nice dude who is super generous. When talking about Geography, he gets extremely into it. The course did have a bunch of tests, but theyre mentioned prior to the start of the semester.

Phil is a great professor. Personally I would not take him again because his voice was very monotone and that does not work for me. But his lectures are pretty interesting. Make sure to be ready for map quizzes, they are a large part of this course and keeping up on the news as well. His tests are pretty easy and fair, they are multiple-choice tho

He's an awesome teacher. The tests can be hard if you don't study for them. Take advantage of the extra credit he gives on map quizzes. Those definitely helped keep my grade up. Go to class everyday and at the end of semester you can get extra points. If you are on the edge(89.9) of a grade he will usually push you up if you an active participant.

Personally I felt that the class was kind of boring and that the tests were graded fairly difficultly. Hes a nice guy most of the time and the class does have a few interesting parts but I wouldnt take it again. The study guides arent helpful on the test.

Incredible teacher. He is so passionate about what hes teaching which makes it more interesting to learn. He does give a good amount of homework but it's not hard and it really helps boost your grade if you haven't done well on a test. His tests are fair but you definitely need to study for him.

Dr. Klein was always energetic and ready to teach. His enthusiasm was easily transferred to us, making us eager to pay attention. Online assessments every once and awhile and map quizzes in the beginning of the semester. Review your notes so you don't have to cram before tests.

Professor Klein is knowledgeable in his field and has first-hand experience with the information that he teaches. Attendance is required. He has many online quizzes, map quizzes and exams. The study guides given for the exams are not helpful. Make sure you read the textbook and take notes during class! If you need help, go to his office hours.

Dr. Klein is awesome. He's nice, engaging in lectures, and quite funny. As long as you do the work he assigns and keep up, the class isn't bad at all. His expectations are clear, and he's accessible outside of class. I would highly recommend him.

Phil Klein is the man. The first few lectures are a little dry, but once he starts talking about different countries it gets super interesting! I loved this class so much! Way more interesting than Tim Vowles class. 4 tests and maybe two short papers. If you follow his examples, the papers are super easy. Study the powerpoints for the tests.

An amazing professor, more than willing to help you when you ask. Transfers his passion for Geography to his students well. In my section we participated in a European Collaboration with students from different countries. It was amazing forced me to grow as a person and a student. Tests are hard, but if you're in class, you're fine!
