    Do not take his class, especially online. Pretty inflexible deadline and is a terrible grader. He is like pretty hate student for no reasons. Do not take it.

    He is approachable both in and out of class. There is weekly homework which will be checked in class, as well as 2 essays plus midterm and final.

    He's actually great. He gave extra credit when some of my classmates asked him. He appreciates our effort. Once you pay attention in class and do all the homework, you'll definitely get an A.

    He hates students for no reason in first 10 minutes of the first lecture. If I wanted to ask a question and raise my hand, he ignores it. Also, don't ever be sick in this class cuz even if you have a doctor statement, he will never give you excuse including Attendance and in class work. I would never choose him in my life.
