    LING3B . Corona K D 6 Years Ago

    I had him for Ling 3B and I wish I can take his class again. Very funny, nice, easy-going teacher. You do not have much homework and will have a descent grade.

    LING12 . Corona K D 1 Year, 6 Months Ago

    Very easy grading, but this is the only reason I'm giving a 4. He forgot to post the instructions or the assignments so many times and the essay prompts were GTP-generated. And the instructions were not clear either bc there was one time when everyone did the assignment wrong. Avoid the asynchronous version of this class.

    Ling3C . Nicolaescu A 1 Year, 10 Months Ago

    Great professor. All homework and the final project are graded based on completion. The first drafts of the two papers have an A average, and you can improve your grade with a revised version. An easy A if you write two papers properly and go to the CLAS for help/attend office hours when necessary!
