Reviews of professor Simon Kern

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Funniest professor I've had so far. I hate public speaking but he made me much better at it. He can be blunt at times which comes off as rude but overall very nice. Very clear rubric for speeches. I didn't find him to be a tough grader. He understands this class is a GE for most people so he doesn't make it too tough.

Simon Kern was a hard grader. He cares about quality of work, but your speech abilities will improve dramatically. I was so nervous for the first speech and bombed it. By the 3rd speech, even though it was long, me and my partner nailed it! Only a few assignments, but they had clear directions and were not too tedious. He is super nice too!!

He's so funny and cares a lot about the class. Dont miss lectures because it really helps clarify what we're learning. Also, he says he's not good looking, but he's soooooooo handsome. 

Hi Simon!

Overall a pretty laid back teacher who tries his best to make good conversation with students & sometimes sidetracks the class with stories. Not too much work, but grades pretty hard (especially with speeches). He responded pretty quickly when emailed & is happy to share feedback if you ask.

My favorite professor at CPP. He made me step out of my shell & his sarcastic personality helped me feel comfortable speaking in class even though I am shy. I looked forward to going to class. Not too much HW, just be prepared for speeches. He gives great feedback and I really felt myself improving throughout the semester. The best GE I ever took!
