Love this class, not only because this is my major. The project is stressful but every other aspect of that class is really easy-going. The professor is such a sweet man. If I could, I would take this class again!

Probably the easiest Phonetics teacher: 3 MC quizzes, production test and project (all easy); 2 quizzes (the hardest part). You learn the IPA and how to produce, but not much else from the book. Not complaining though as what he does teach, he teaches well. He is also very helpful outside of class. Do the readings for yourself, not the class. GREAT

Very friendly. Willing to help outside of class. You can learn a lot from him in office hours if you are interested in his field of study. Definitely a great professor to talk to! I wish I could've taken more of his classes! Tests are based on Notes and definitions from book. Project was do-able; just don't procrastinate!

Class was pretty boring, though it was funny hearing a huge group of students make funny sounds. He's not a very good teacher, so you basically end up teaching yourself. But the class was easy, just basically memorization. He grades easy, plus he's freaking adorable. DON'T BOTHER BUYING THE BOOK! You never use it, and it's expensive.

One of greatest professors in entire human history. He's so passionate about the subject and so compassionate to his students. He actually TEACHES so that students ENJOY LEARNING, unlike other "Teach"ers who just make students feel miserable & not interested. You will not regret taking him. His TA Uldis is also down to earth cool guy. Mad props!

I took this class, expecting it to be really easy, and it most definitely wasn't. You don't need to read the book or anything, but there is a lot of memorization involved. You get to watch him make awesome noises and faces in class, though. It was worth it, but not by much.
