Recommended Instructor:
Professor Daniel Lambert
Review: Professor Lambert may be one of the easiest English professors to take. He is amusing and funny in sort of a weird way, and he provides tutoring service online for extra credit as well as words/quotes/memes extra credit assignments if you want to make up the points lost. Extra credit opportunities are given every week. You can take notes in class if you want but he is the easiest to teach. He gives out essay assignments nearly every week and provides you details of how to do them. Reading the lectures and watching his recordings is important.
You have to spend about a few hours per week to do your assignments. His quizzes are like a breeze, and that is why I recommended you, especially most of the international students to those who have difficulty with English, to take Professor Lambert’s class.
