LATIN101 . 2 Years Ago

Erickson is an enthusiastic lecturer and is very engaging with the entire class. He guides the class through the translation in a clear and positive way, which is so nice because Latin can be very frustrating and difficult to figure out when you're stuck. He's such a funny professor and this was one of my favorite classes I've taken.

Not very good. He is good with the fufu classes like myth, but not the upper division language classes. I found myself drowning in work and he was not helpful and frequently got his latin translations wrong. Some students even had to correct his Latin. Steer clear of this one

Great professor- he's very helpful, friendly and hyper. The course itself is rather challenging. There is sight reading on the midterm and final and we have to learn meter.

A good latin professor. The class is actually sort of interesting and not as painful as expected. Watch out for 100% or nothing quizes. He could do better with explaining grammer. He goes just a little to fast at times. He can be funny at times. We do have to learn meter.

One of the best Classics professors I've ever had. Easy to understand and humorous. Talks about surfing A LOT. And he's hot!

Fun guy, I think he is the best guy to teach this class but GO TO LECTURE. He drops small things on the final. The essays were very reasonably graded and transparent on how to improve but the final was EVIL. I studied everything on the guide and still got a 75% without the curve. It was quite the curve, I got a 94 but the final is no joke (trivia)
