Reviews of professor April Newton

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Great professor, teaches you about the process of creating a story and has experience in the field. Was challenging especially to concepts about how to create story headlines, how to create quality content. Easy going and enjoy her teaching style. If you slack on final project and other work then your grade will drop. Easy to access outside class

April Newton is the worst professor I have ever had. She is unorganized, impolite, and unprofessional. Each day she comes to class unprepared and then just teaches random stuff. It is unfortunate that students pay this much for a professor who knows barely anything about the subject. I could teach her classes better.

April Newton is awesome. The only thing that's graded is participation and the website you make at the end of the semester, which you work towards throughout the course of the class. This class was SUCH an easy A, super stress-free, and she was completely hilarious, kooky, and caring. Definitely recommend taking her class with a friend.

Worst teacher I've had at Loyola! She is so unorganized and has no idea what's going on. She is never prepared and has no idea what we are even doing and then gives quizzes on stuff that nobody has learned. Her voice is so annoying too and having to sit there that long is DREADFUL!!!

DO NOT take her class. Never prepared, and never clear with instructions. I ended up dropping this course because she was never organized and would forget to upload the HW into moodle. She would also never be clear if we had class online or in-person. I felt like I had to baby this course and it made me fall behind in my much more important courses

If you like Professors who are serious and well organized do not take Professor Newton. If you prefer professors who are more personable, take Professor Newton. She is caring and wants her students to succeed. She covers a lot of material which is helpful if you want to explore journalism and ad and pr. Easy grader and minimal quizzes.
