HIS QUIZ IS LIKE: WHAT IS MY NAME AND THE ANSWER IS REGINALD ABBOTT WITH CORRECT SPELLING. THINK ABOUT TO KNOW HOW TO WRITE HIS NAME CORRECTLY. MOST OF HIS TALKING IS ALL ABOUT HOW ENGLAND HAS CHANGED THE WORLD. BORING AND LIKE TO KEEP YOU IN HIGH STANDARD BUT NOT TO HIMSELF. HE DOEST NOT TEACH. DO NOT TRY YOU WILL END UP WITH C OR D FOR SURE

Always felt writing essays were my forte, until I took his class. Very difficult grader but gives plenty of extra credits and quizzes are EXTREMELY easy! Just pay attention to the stories you read and you will pass his quizzes.

Dr. Abbott is a GREAT teacher. His quizzes are easy but he grades harsher on written assignments. He offers a lot of help with them and also offers a lot of extra credit assignments to help your grade! I would definitely suggest taking him!

DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS- half of my class failed - NOT A COINCIDENCE. He makes the class seem like a joke at first. Comes to class late every single time. Does not use turnitin so offers very little to no feedback about one's grade. Then at the end of the semester he will weigh the final paper/final very heavily without preparing you for it -HORRIBLE

Dr. Abbott holds high expectation in this course as far as the writing and works cited goes because he prefers a class of driven individuals who actually are interested in what they are studying, and think freely on their own. His assignments are normally expected to be done out of class. In class is mostly lecture.I recommend him;very entertaining

I enjoy this professor. He is pretty random and never stays on subject but he is really passionate about everything we cover in the class so it makes it easy to get excited. He grades pretty harshly on papers. I have never received such low grades before but I feel like I have more technically coherent papers after taking his 1102 class.

Goes off topic, way too much. He also has a difficult syllabus to read. He doesn't use icollege, He doesn't have a computer at home, so it is hard to contact him when the students have questions. However, he gives out easy quizzes though.

AWESOME but... If you need to be spoon fed, or know you are a poor writer, then dont take Dr. Abbott. If you have a brain cell he is a great teacher. Funny and entertaining. Quizes are easy but know your grammar because his is VERY diligent when finding errors and doesnt give out grades based on how hard you try!

I am currently taking Prof Abbott and I want to be very honest about this professor. He's a very fun, sweet, sort of silly person. However as a professor, he doesn't teach anything. He gives reading assignment while he's talking about something totally out of the blue. So, just ask him to repeat himself when it comes to assignments. Hes so funny th

Awful. He would start off on topic at the beginning of class and then 5 minutes later be talking about something completely irrelevant to anything you're supposed to learn in college. He did not teach us anything that was going to be on the final and when we took it, everyone was whispering about how ridiculously hard it was. I do NOT recommend.

Dr. Abbott is an excellent professor. He allows revisions on papers and helps suggest topics for papers as well as read your paper before turning it in. Essentially, he does everything but write the paper for you. Those who did not do well did not pay attention or read his syllabus.

Dr. Abbott was a good teacher. He talked a lot about himself but he was very informative. His quiz were easy but he gives low grades on paper. I would take him again.

I really enjoyed this class. Mr. Abbott made this class loads of fun and I was never bored. He gave us loads of topics for papers and made sure that we knew what important parts of our readings. He also gives loads of extra credit too which is really helpful. Just attend class and you should be fine.

He likes to talk a lot about nothing. His lectures are never relevant to the assignment. He is not very helpful when it comes to getting clarification. I do not recommend him as an instructor.

He is an interesting man. His rambling thoughts are funny but not always relevant. You have to be self-motivated in his class. He will not hold your hand along the way. If you get offended easily or want lots of attention, he is not for you. Overall, he's a good professor.

Maybe he should teach a class in Television History because all he talks about is TV shows that no one watches. In addition the course load is ridiculous Im not sure why I took him twice because he has been an absolute nightmare!

Intelligent. He tries to make a class be interesting. Unfortunately, tough grading. Not a nice and helpful person. You will learn something, but if you don't study hard and hard - Fail. In-class writing tests. 5 pages paper requried. If you care your GPA - not recommended. If you care your knowledge - recommended. If you are smart - recommended ;)
