Reviews of professor Andrew Forster

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Wonderful teacher. He makes even the most boring subjects interesting. He's clearly passionate about what he teaches and cares for his students' learning. He's quirky and funny. Gives good feedback and hands in grades on time. There's obviously readings to do but they aren't too bad. Just do all assignments and attend class & you'll pass.

I have scanned the web up and down to find reviews on Andrew. He's really a great guy and seems to love what he does. A true sweetheart with a very delicate sense of humor. He's like a refreshing mint amongst other design classes. He is very self-aware and quirky :)

Teacher isn't bad, he was nice and clear. I signed up for an art history class on drawing. He spent most of the class time talking about philosophers and I did not learn a lot about drawing. If you want a good grade you have to show up and take your time when answering journal posts and assignments. If you love philosophy, this class is for you...

At first I didn't like Andrew because of all the readings and impromptu quizzes. But as the course progressed I appreciated how much work he put into his courses and of course the content was interesting. In the end, I put in the work and I got a good grade. He will make you work for it but is not a harsh grader at all. But lectures can be LONG...

Professor Andrew is a very approachable professor and cares a lot about his students. You can tell that he is knowledgeable in what he teaches. However, if you are not a philosophical person / or someone who is not into reading philosophical texts. You might need to think carefully about taking this course. Overall, the course was enjoyable!

It's hard to know what he wants from us. You have to do journals, they are mini essays(600 words every two weeks)you don't know what grade you'll have each time, even if you put in the same amount of work and you think you got it.If you have A+ in all journals the best grade you can have is B+orA- if you decide not to do the "optional" final essay.
