Very funny man. He offered alot of great tips on teaching. I would recommend him. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Dr. McFadden is one of the high knowledge teachers I've came across in my college career. She has a passion for teaching the students and genuinely wants you to learn and succeed. She enjoys the topic and you can tell it is her passion. Most of the real world experience she draws from is in healthcare and aviation. One of my favorite NIU professors | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
great intro class. I had a laid back night class with her. Just real pleasant. Nothing crazy. No hitler teaching you. Just a laid back woman who likes to see you be creative. Wasn;t real hard at grading either. Very nice for this class | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
THE WORST PROFESSOR I'VE EVER HAD.I WENT INTO HIS CLASS EXPECTING A LOT BECAUSE OTHER STUDENTS RAVED ABOUT HIM. WHAT A MISTAKE...HE'S ARROGANT AND NAPOLEANIC. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Great great professor. She seems cold at first, but she is a very to the point, no crap woman...she is very helpful when you ask questions and is grateful to those who come to class and participate. the class is not easy but shes great | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
At first I was afraid to take her class because of her reputation, but she actually wasn't what all I had expected. She has high expectations for your art work, but that's only to improve you, not criticize you and make you feel like crap. She is open to | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
What kind of promises would a professor make to a student? That's weird... this guy is the best teacher I ever had. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Prof. Sierra is an interesting man; nonetheless, he is pretty awesome. Definitely knows his stuff. Always there for me when I emailed him regarding essays. Show up to every class ON TIME (he hates ppl who are late), complete all 3 essays on time and do your best on the quizzes. Overall, if you can write essays you can get an A. Fun class for sure. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
She is definitely a feminist but an all around nice woman. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Ok, he hardly shows up for class. All he does it babble on about politics and hardly mentions anything that we're actually supposed to be talking about. One day he just let everyone out about himself (awkward). I think he enjoyed the 70's WAY too much. Easiest "A" anyone will ever get. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Really disengaged prof. He's got high regard for his own ideas, but little time and patience for anyone who disagrees with him. Shows very little interest in student success, and does not make himself (or his TA's) accessible for any kind of assistance outside of lecture. Acts like he doesn't want to be there, and really couldn't care less. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Short Story was great with Colleen. She is really the cat's meow. Class was enriching but not hard. Doing the readings was fun. Two papers, one presentation, one small final...no sweat, but we still learned a ton about literature. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Best teacher I ever had | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Alrighty... Where to start! I guess at the very beginning. The first class or should I say the first three classes were spent on just the syllabus! Seriouslly he read word for word... I forgot we are in college and can't read. Very rude to other instructors, not very computer knowledgeable. Took 2 classes to split class of 60+ in to 8 groups! | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Dr. A is an amazing director. He will push you and others in the choir harder than any other director. You will learn how to make near flawless music for the purpose of delivering beautiful texts and messages. A once in a lifetime opportunity to work with a musician of his calibre. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
She is extreamly nice, she will help you out as much as you need it. if you are failing the class or falling behind it is because you dont pay attention in class or do the homework. she is a great teacher and i'm doing well in the class and i'm not that great at math. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Fine at best. He is disgustingly arrogant. However, if you can get past his ego he is more concerned that you understand statistics overall opposed to just the math behind it, which is good. Some days he can be very boring. Tests are fair and papers (yes papers, quite a few of them) are not terrible at all. Overall not terrible but not enjoyable. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Really nice guy. Not the clearest professor, but a good guy. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Yancy is a very laid back teacher. You'll do well in this course as long as you atleast try. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Professor Amrine is extremely intelligent and is a wealth of knowledge and teaches Imagination with a brilliant structure. If you go into this class with an open mind, you will walk out with new perspectives to view the world from. I never post on online sites, but felt the need to convey how great of a lecturer Professor Amrine is. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Don't ever believe any of his stories. There are all lies. He is the laziest professor ever. Never taking his class again. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
really fun teacher! Takes things a lot more seriously than you'd guess, but it's only because he cares. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Classes are similar, but you learn a lot. Has a lot to bring to the table and very easy to talk to. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
I guess you either like him, or you don't. He is a bit full of himself, and he is hard to please. He is really serious. All I have to say is have fun with the practical exam. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
You have no choice coz he teaches all sections and its a basic requirement to enter the nursing program. Pay attention to his lectures coz what he says will be on the test. It is a little difficult though to filter the important information from the lousy jokes he injects in his lectures. He has a tendency to embarass you infront of the class... | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Doc is awesome. The man seems so bland on the surface, but every once in a while, he'll say something that'll just shock you (i.e. "eat the elephant in small bites") | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
An awesome teacher who depends on her students too much. If the students don't feel like talking the class will drag on. Very sweet and easy to get along with but the class will drag if you do not participate. Lots of readings, but papers are clear and not too hard. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Really nice guy, but can make things confusing, especially lab reports. Can make class fun though | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Actually the worst professor I've had at Cornell -- I don't care if he is a brilliant researcher. He had no investment in the class, terrible lectures and had no care whatsoever what students took away from his class - truly terrible. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Funny guy, picks favorites, wierd grading style and lecturer... | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Fair is the best professor at this law school. He also truly is interested in students, a rarity at this place (see Singer, Norman, and Brew****er, Bill). | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
The professor teaches in a boring approach. Its all powerpoints. He wants your work to be done EXACTLY how he does it. I like physics, but im not learning despite the hours spent studying. There are only 10 students left in class. He gives out a lot of handouts, which he revises constantly. I do not advice anyone to take him. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Dr Thielen is a true gem at Pvcc! Took his interpersonal communication class and it was amazing. His lectures are interesting and he wants you to participate. He is very clear and appreciates his students' hard work! Would defedentley take his class again! | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Lets just say she is boring. All she does is sit at her desk and read off her notes. The class is based off of attendance, three tests, and two papers. It was so hard not to fall asleep in the class... if you have to take this class, save yourself and do NOT take her | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Grades papers kind of hard. Lots of group work. Such a big class & the students screwed around so much that you could never hear the lecture. At some point, you need to tell the class to quiet down. Some of us were actually there to learn. She was often in her own little world. Doesn't really seem to care about what she "teaches." | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
This class is basically SMO 201 with a little more description into HR practices. I hate this class with this professor because it provides generalized material with a teach who can not decide on a steadfast and concrete answer. Once you question his analysis, he holds a grudge. Take 311 with someone else. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Very rude | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Awful. So ashamed I attend a university that allows this man to teach and waste salary on. His schtick is being wacky and telling stories but this is ridiculous to be listening to in a classroom setting. Avoid at all costs. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Shelly Hancock is one of my favorite instructors here at BCTC. She is so lively and passionate. He classes are almost never boring. Sometimes in her class, I felt as if my older sister was teaching me. She is just so friendly and fair. She gives you a hard time on essays, but that's because she cares about you. She wants you to become your best. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
After taking Spanish-301 with Professor Yager, I took Spanish-331 with him a year later based almost entirely on the fact that he was teaching it. His class is relatively entertaining and he is great at connecting with his students. Genuinely cares about the well-being of his students and understands the students' perspectives. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
One of the best teachers I've had. She is funny, smart, and cheerful. She cares about her students and her job. Her assignments aren't hard and if they are she makes them as clear as can be. I loved her. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
I was unsure at first but this clas tured out to be a lot of fun. The professor worked hard at making sure the class got the concepts of teach social studies. However, if you need a lot of structure and organization in your classes this one isn't for you. But, if you like to learn in a more relaxed, free flowing manner, give it a try. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
She doesnt like getting up early thats for sure but ive never met anyone with as much energy as her in the morning. Hilarious teacher, a must have for your morning wake up computer class. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
DMIT-1508 has a very high fail rate. Shane makes this class awesome and fun. As long as you show up and PAY ATTENTION, you can do very well. I suspect the high fail rate is due to people browsing their Facebook or text messages in class. You're paying for the course, don't waste your chances. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
[Im continuing my review from the one below] The other comments seem ridiculous. Her looks don't matter, it's about how she can help you. If you are not afraid to ask for help take her. She won't push you away. She does have a little tardy issue but that just means you can be a little late yourself. I wish she was teaching 131 this semester! | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Has very good knowledge of subject, nice prof. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Best math teacher i have ever had...very clear on every topic is willing to sit with you and help you out...i would def take her again... | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Great guy, a bit monotone though. I'd definitely recommend his class | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Best professor at Queen's. Hands down. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
She is such a great teacher! She literally helps you out with anything you don't get and makes it easier to understand. She gives you all the reviews before exams and finals, they can be hard though if you don't study. Very nice and helpful teacher. Would definitely recommend her! | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
He is very funny. I would take him again. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Horrid experience. Not a fan of reading, and we did a decent amount.. Not the easiest grader. Participation is important, but all that seems to happen is random rants completely off-topic. Pretty boring class. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
If everyone is quiet when she asks questions, there will be a surprise quiz. Read even if you don't understand because, if you ask questions, she will keep explaining in differnet ways until you get it. Do not skip the review day before a test. If you don't do well, go to office hours and ask questions. She's nice if she sees you trying. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Explains clearly, gives time to practice examples in class.Very organized and thorough. Expects some prior knowledge, but will walk you through when needed.Do the homework, he gives 100% without checking each answer.Gives study guides for exams. Go to class-he gives test questions when only a few people show up. Funny, knowledgable and passionate. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
i hope he reads this one day and knows that straight up, the guy almost ruined my first year. with all these professors trying to make u feel welcome, here is dr. stewart and his condescending remarks and attitude. not a good person, and not a good teacher. i tried to tell him i was struggling, he couldn't have cared less. a real egomaniac, and jer | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Mr. Stewart is so awesome! He's one of the best professors I've ever taken. He cares, he helps, and he's very interested in his students well-being. He's also fun on TIPA trips!! | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Kaufman is very easy-going and his open class discussion instead of lecture keeps me awake and involved in class, motivating me to express my opinions and thoughts. If not interested in class discussion though, it can get pretty boring - his voice does have a slight drone to it but he can be funny. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Another fine instructor who also somehow seems to keep the kitchen running. Great knowledge of the industry and the people who run it. And a nice person as well. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Professor Woody seemed very passionate about the subject and I had no doubts about her knowledge level. She was enthusiastic and answered questions well during lecture. She posted the slides online which was very helpful if you ever missed a class. Only thing I didn't like was that lectures were very long and not much interaction with audience. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Cynthia is a very great instructor, she really does her best to get everyone involved! I enjoyed her class very much, but I'm not much of a morning person. So my brain was only half awake! Very sweet lady! | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
sarah is a very enthusiastic teacher, and she does let you get your thoughts out, but she really has issues with getting off topic. i get really frustrated with how little we actually end up covering in one class period. i feel that if she could only get her style of teaching more disciplined, she could be great. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
im a little sad to see so few reviews for sparks, he is great, alot of people hate him, with good reason, hes an antagonizer, he has no idea how to do anything other than make you feel something, hes not a teacher,hes a old man sharing all that he knows, and it may or not be alot, but he gets under skin better than a sliver, he does name drop, he d | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Gel is very nice. When coming to class make sure you dress appropriately. She tries to make class fun and pushes you to do your best. Work out and stretches along with combinations of jazz. A few handouts at first that you have to read and respond to but after that you just dance. Hard but worth it.=] Good class. you will definetly learn new things | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
she is kind and understanding and helps you to nuture your skills. she is pretty cool so if you have any problems just talk to her and if you put in th effort you will get a good grade. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
I am not a fan of Dr Newhart at all. As interested as she is in philosophy, and as knowlegeable as she is about the subject, she does not know how to express it to her students without giggling a lot at her own jokes. I have to take notes hardcore when she teaches because her lectures do not sink in at all. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
well i must say scanlin is a nice guy. his awesome haircut & wonderful ways with words kept me entertained allll semester long. :) | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Knows what he is talking about (since he is the head of the department). Kind of acts like he is all knowledgeable but you eventually understand that he is just good at what he does. Take him if you want to actually learn something instead of just going through the motions. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
an incredible professor and one of the most intellegent in the entire school. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Prof. Curtis is hilarious. He says "yo" a lot XD lol His class is really easy; it consists of papers to write and no tests! And the book that you must buy is really cheap. Overall, his class was hilarious. He is easy going and really cool. Don't be afraid to speak to him and show your personality! Easy grader, highly recommended !!! | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Ercoli is the BEST! He's so laid back, and free spirited. He really gives you the room to be creative, instead of always trying to change your ideas like other teachers. He has lots of cool books, and can tell you about really cool relevant things...just ask him. Def. take him for Prob. Solving. NOT CLARA | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
let me just say, i took his class last semester, not only was it one of the worst experiences of my life, but even now, one semester later, i still run and hide when i see him on campus. please don't waste your time or your sanity. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
She's just a poor teacher, no social etiquette and made me dislike my favorite subject...... | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Good Prof, very knowledgable. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Tries her best to make calculus as comprehensible as possible. She's nice. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Awesome teacher. I looked forward to going to his class. He's funny, helpful, and caring. You have four homework assignments (which are just a paragraph each), you need to do a ten minute presentation, you have to read a GOOD book and write a summary about it *thats the final* his class is easy. He's such a nice man. His class is fun! | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Very helpful! He really understands students and is willing to work with you. One of the best professors I've ever had! Really funny as well! | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
She's so nice! Such a fascinating class. Easy tests if you study and put forth an effort. I'm an English major, I don't like lit a whole lot, but she made it all very interesting. She's finds the strangest things funny, it's great. Take her for any class! | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Dr. Vanderhoof is amazing! She understands that most students are taking her class b/c it is a required Gen Ed, so she makes it as simple as possible. She almost NEVER makes you stay for the whole class period. Very kind woman and great professor!!!! | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
cool professor i liked her style | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
EASY SHE IS VERY HELPFUL AND YOU CAN LEARN A LOT FROM HER I RECOMMEND YOU TAKE HER!!!!! | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
His books were definetly not mediocre-- Story of a Million Years is breathtaking and The Wolf Girl is really bizzare and fascinating, and plenty of literary critics agreed. I didn't love UVM and transferred out, but just talking to him made school more palatable for me while I was there. I'd take another class with him if I was still there... | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Not only is he easy, but he completely makes you understand the subject. One time my car broke down on the road and he fixed it for me. Knows his way through Windows and Linux systems. Incredible memory of C++ programming and data structures. Asset! | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
very nice man but horrible teacher. Comes late, won't look over work, and is completely deaf. You have to repeat yourself a billion times, and then he still doesn't hear you and tells you to speak up? Imagine how much fun taking attendence was. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Does an excellent job of explaining concepts, is approachable and is always very clear about what she wants done on assignments. Also knows how to pick good TAs! Awesome prof, awesome class :D | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Professor Young is amazing! I have always had a hard time with algebra, I made a C in pre algebra even! I dropped college algebra three times before finding professor Young. He speaks math to where I can actually understand it. Couldn't find a better math teacher! | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
If you love literature, you'll enjoy his class. His lectures are relevant to the poems/stories that we read in class.You need your book to follow his discussions. And if you want to do well on the final, come to class because his key points on every poem/story is necessary to do well on test. Essays are easy and he will help you when you need it. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
She was very caring and enjoyable to be around. You'll be doing class time partially online each week through the series of videos she provides. Some are pretty silly, you'll for sure crack a smile. Each project is challenging in its own way but be wary of going too big with your ideas, it's all very time sensitive. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Excellent poet and critic. Enjoyed his East coast insights. Is married to a fabulous graphic artist and is proud of his family's accomplishments. He makes his classes relative to what is happening in the world at large. Very erudite and knows his stuff. Loved his class. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
AMAZING PROF! Her course was informative and fun! She is very clear with the requirements of the course and what is expected. She incorporates videos, discussions, visuals in her lecture. Class just flew by. Just do your work, attend class, and you'll do great! She is also very helpful with the final essay. Ask her for help and she's there! | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Kwag was a nightmare! You could not understand him and he is not interested in helping the students. The worst that SHA has to offer. It is a shame the dean uses him as a showcase professor. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Simply horrible. Pedantic and narrow-minded. Dull, dull, dull. Love phil, and would've majored but for this ludicrous clown. And definitely NOT hot. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
I really liked professor Iftode. At first I was on the fence about her, but as time went on, she really grew on me. The class is a little challenging, but if you ask her questions, she will always talk you through your confusion. She's really sweet and a fairly easy grader. Participation definitely makes a difference too. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Prof. Caravanos teaches an engaging course, making the material fun and accessible. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
Ms. Laidlaw was an amazing professor. She's very energetic and sarcastic but, the class was def worth taking. She made the class fun. If you dont understand, you need to ask for help and she will give you a more in depth answer. Some of the speehes were a little cheesy but in the long run they help with being able to speak in public. Tests=easy! | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
He starts out as a good prof, but as the semester progressed he got cranky and grouchy. The class seemed really pointless becasue we ended up watching a ton of movies. I would not reccoment taking a class from him if you can help it. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
She is the best professor I have had, yet.If you can get her go for it. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
I am being very honest and speak with concern. He is showing symptoms of senility. He forgets things he has said 10-20 minutes ago. 30 kids show up and 25 leave within the first hour. Last week it was just me and 1 other dude in class left at the end of the lecture. I don't leave because I genuinely feel bad and surprised that he doesn't notice. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
I know I'm in the minority, but I liked her. She's is very knowledgeable and friendly. In the beginning, I didn't care for her, but she grew on me. In the end, I realized I learned a lot. She tells you exactly what to expect on exams. Very willing to meet with students. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
really easy and friendly teacher. students take advantage of him all the time, but there is no way you will NOT pass the class. He doesnt require you to be better but he will know who you are and your name by the second class. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
She reminds me of Chris Rock. Her crude humor will keep you on the edge of your seat wondering what she will say next? This class is everything you wanted your tenth grade health class to be like. Very easy B if you show up. You might not like her if you are easily offended or are uber sensative. | 5) highlights the professor's demeanor, attitude, or personal qualities |
