Seems very kind.. but so boring. I didn't go to half the lectures because I couldn't pay attention. His slides are just plain text, and he reads definitions and random foreign languages for the whole class. The work is super easy, though, with only one small quiz per week. Tests are very hard however.

Covers a lot of interesting material and is super knowledgeable on it, too. You can retake the quizzes as many times as you'd like. Exams are fair, my TA was super nice, and though lecture attendance isn't mandatory (and you can use the slides posted to get the gist of anything you miss), he does reward attendance.

Great & funny guy, good area C GE since you're not really doing math. Class can be VERY tiresome because the topic isn't all that interesting. Exams are short and not heavily weighted. Bombed my exams and still got a B. Short weekly online quizzes you can redo until you get full points. Can be confusing at times but would recommend. He loves memes!

Slideshow with no pictures guide lectures. Material is generally dry for someone with basic background knowledge in linguistics, with occasional jokes. Concepts are well explained with examples used to parse out distinctions. Weekly checkpoints have an unlimited number of attempts and usually detailed feedback.

While not many students would attend his lectures in-person but rather online via zoom. He seems very passionate about teaching the material. Easy GE class to take by just being graded on a few things: weekly checkpoint quizzes, midterm, and a final along with your section attendance.
