Reviews of professor John Karas

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Professor Karas is the nicest guy ever he gives you 1-2 "informal comments" which are really easy to do well on because you literally summarize what you read and then you just write two formal papers and take two tests which he literally gives you the answers to. 100% required to participate 24/7 to do well he really only wants participation TAKE

I absolutely love Dr. Karas. He is so caring and is an extremely intelligent guy- he really knows his stuff. Participation is required- I am usually a nervous participator but he singlehandedly changed that and I feel so comfortable in his class. He is really fair and is a great professor.

Dr. Karas is an amazing professor! He strongly encourages participation, as it is crucial for this course. He makes class enjoyable by picking works that he thinks students would enjoy reading. There are only 2 formal papers and each week you have to write one page with 3 questions/comments on the reading. He's a super chill and easy professor.

Dr. Karas is the nicest guy. We had weekly 1-2 page comments about our readings but you could talk about anything you wanted. 2 formal essays, 2 film comment papers, and 2 tests that he gives you all the answers for. Participation is key for an A, but for him this is just responding to his questions or sharing your comments with the class.
