Reviews of professor John Noras

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
The professor was very caring and he makes sure that you understand the material very well and responds your email right away. He takes the time to explain the assignments and if you do not do well you have extra credit and make up exams.

His syllabus is clear and concise.  He is quick to provide feedback and re-explain if you do not understand content in his lectures.  He provides extra credit and feedback in quizzes.  I enjoyed his class.

Communication is key. Not just with this professor but in life. Professor Noras exemplifies what an instructor should encompass. He's passionate about his field of study, available to his students at any given time and if you're struggling in life, communication will go a very long way. Always ask questions, he's more than willing to answer them!

I took the 3-week course, so it was intense, so you need to be organized. His course structure was good for that; no unpleasant surprises. You know what is coming. The last extra-credit assignment was great: we watched "12 Angry Men" to find fallacies in it.

Took this as a four week summer course, he lays out everything for you on a day by day schedule. Be prepared to read, you won't ace this course if you're googling definitions. Dedicate a minimum hour and a half to this course a day and you should easily secure that A. Bonus points that his course teaches you actual useful material!

The course starts out a bit difficult, but then you ease into it. Make sure you process his feedback on the assignments and exams, and talk to him if you don't understand something. He does give you the chance to improve your performance over the term; ours was a winter intensive, so his course organization helped. We moved fast. though.

Professor Noras is a good caring professor who's willing to explain the material during his office hours if your ever stuck. Class material felt tough for me at one point, but practice makes perfect. The amount of work wasnt too much but just needed critical thinking.
