Reviews of professor Ghassan Abou-Zeineddine

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
He is a very nice guy. BUT he is a very hard essay grader. I did not get higher than a B- on any of the papers the entire semester. And they make up your entire grade. Nice guy, but a little unrealistic of his writing expectancy. Not attending/being late makes him very angry. If you take him, attend every class. Doesn't make health exceptions

Ghassan seems a bit lost himself. Hes a nice guy but hes all over the place. He changed the syllabus mid semester and said that it was for the students sake but it was for his own benefit. Hes an incredibly hard grader. He lets you rewrite one paper, but even on the rewrite hes still a tough grader. Refuse to take a class with him again.

I've taken many writing classes throughout college but by far this Professor was THE toughest grader I've had. I felt like for an Intro class his expectations for essays were really unrealistic but overall he's a really nice guy and really accessible outside of class. We had a small class and didn't hear of anyone who got higher than a B on a paper

Nice guy, but he grades as if hes assessing a thesis. Pretty sure the highest grade in the class was a B, which isnt bad but when there isnt one A in the class, there is something wrong with the professor. He gets ahead of himself a lot and ends up confusing the students and himself. Be prepared for corny puns/jokes and awkward eye contact.

Tough grader, REALLY tough. He is very smart and the sweetest guy and if you ask for help he will give it. But he is a very tough grader. I dont think anyone got higher than a B in the class I was in. Expects a lot. Encourages discussions and makes class interesting. Overall a nice guy but very tough with grading.

Biggest waste of time. He spends the majority of class time blathering on about the readings, we don't even get to do the in-class exercises. It's like high school all over again with the non-stop lit analysis. Boring. Where's the creative writing I signed up for? Good thing it's just for DDC, if English was my major I'd be even more mad.
