Comment:
Dr. Jim Gellert retired this year and will be dearly missed. His lecture style was traditional, yet charming and humourous. His first year class convinced me not to transfer into philosophy, which ended up being a wise choice.

Comment:
Very, very knowledgeable. Offhandedly tosses out the most brilliant little insights. Those not interested in the subject will likely find the classes dry, but if you're into it, his classes are educational without being too difficult. Highly recommended that you take the first-year English courses with him, if possible!

aww I loved Dr. Gellert as a professor. Such a nice man. Even though the material was quite boring...you could tell he tried really hard to make it more interesting. My favourite teacher. He will go out of his way to up the class marks.

Very wise and uses such dry humour that is awesome when you catch it. He got really into the poetry we were studying and that made it so much more enjoyable. I hope to have a class with him again!

great prof! I used to hate English while in high school, but he made me enjoy it! That's hard to do! His lectures can be dry, especially when they're so early (and you're feeling after effects from the night before), but all and all great and VERY approachable prof (a seemingly difficult thing to find at any university!)

This guy can go either way. Interesting material and an easy marker...but very dry and often puts me to sleep. I heard one actual lecture this whole semester while every other day was spent in group work. Peers' opinions are good, but i paid money to hear what the prof had to say.

An amazing prof!! His lectures go by in a flash because you become so wrapped up in what hes saying. He knows all of his students names which is refreshing!
