This is a graduate student who teaches and clearly wants to become a professor while having none of the qualities that make a good professor. He is unorganized, uncommunicative, and rude. I would highly recommend you avoid him.
Clearly needs to go into research in the field and not teach students. Unclear on his expectations in the class when constantly changing syllabus. Is unable to communicate his ideas without sounding condescending. Careless when it comes to grading. The only redeemable quality is his long drawn commentary on random topics.
If I could give this man a zero, I would. He never stays on track. He didn't even decide on whether we were going to have a final until a week before. He's extremely rude and passive-aggressive. Calls students out directly in class for the sole purpose of degrading them. Don't take this class unless you want to partake in a humiliation ritual.
Avoid at all costs.
Do not take this instructor! The positive reviews on here are crazy, with two saying "it was an honor" to be in his class; they definitely had me fooled. Tough grader with no constructive feedback, and was always condescending and belittling.
I really enjoyed this class. He's a great prof
