Reviews of professor Lavar Howell

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Absolute worst teacher I have ever taken. No guidelines for anything and doesn't explain how he wants the group papers to be done. Tells the class that tests will be easy then puts everything from the book on them. WILL NOT DISCUSS ANSWERS TO TESTS. If he's wrong, forget it you'll waste your breath. Argues with class, lectures are painful.

Presentations are easy. Makes class seem easy and tells you not to worry to much about the tests then BOOM he puts everything on the test and totally messes you up. Terrible grader and not willing to discuss grades at all. He needs to go. Tests are absolutely ridiculous he tries to mess people over on tests.

Professor Howell is a good instructor. He definitely makes you work for your grade. With that said freshman will think hes hard. I wasnt a freshman in his class. Read the book and the PowerPoints! He does grade speeches pretty tough. I did well in the class, in the public speaking contest and aced my interview with his help!

Professor Howell is a really nice, young guy but the way he grades is sort of ridiculously tough, especially for a required speech course. In class he is very easygoing and lectures aren't awful. As far as I know he is the only teacher who makes his students write papers for this particular class. You definitely have to work for a decent grade.

We are currently watching a video on civil rights in my speech communication class. He is a public speaking professor with a lisp who majored in sports management. You do the math.
