Reviews of professor Sarah Portway

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Prof. Portway is one of my favorite professors at SUNY Oneonta. I was thrown into a 200 level class my freshman year before taking the prerequisite 100 level class. Portway helped me throughout the whole class and understand if or when I struggled - she was understanding and always there when needed. If you have the chance to take her I suggest!!!

Overall Dr. Portway is a good professor, she knows what she's talking about and teaching. My only complaint would be she's incredibly condescending. You try to explain how the homework is incredibly challenging and she just says "Well it will make you remember it". Which would be the case normally but they are so hard that it just is confusing

I have taken a few classes with Dr. Portway. I enjoyed her journalism class, she likes group work in her other classes. She sometimes can be a tough grader and can have an attitude. Overall she knows what she is talking about and can be a helping hand.

She's just terrible. I have nothing nice to say about her as a person or a professor. Terrible experience with her. Often has an attitude and isn't approachable. Took her my senior year of college and her course was the worst.

I love her! She is young, upbeat and way more relatable than most other professors. There are several small projects, but they're really fun, and she gives you an outline that states EXACTLY what she does and doesn't want. No group work. Also shes understanding and if you have a decent reason she is lenient with deadlines. Overall great class!

Literally AMAZING. I would take every one of her classes if I could.
