Professor Lisovsky is NOT concerned with student learning. His class is easy enough, but make sure you go to class because he bases SO MUCH of your grade on whether or not you're there. He doesn't really care whether or not you learned anything (even if you really did); it's basically a blow to his ego if you don't go to lecture. He imposes his knowledge on his students in a superior way and acts like he is an incredibly smart man, which he is not. He drones on about grammar, even though most of it is stuff we have learned when we were younger. Sometimes, it felt like we were in an elementary/middle school classroom instead of a college environment. In the beginning he may seem nice enough but he is definitely very arrogant. Lisovsky is probably the worst professor I've had at UCLA.
