Reviews of professor Brenton Goff

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
He's a good prof, but this semester was insane. The assignments he gave to students without classroom placements were really confusing and without much clarification. His lectures were interesting and engaging but the points came from homework, which I spent about as much time trying to decode as I did actually doing it.

I had Brent last semester and it was honestly horrible. He was rude and I didn't learn anything. However, this semester you can tell he got all of his feedback and ran with it. He's amazing. I feel not only prepared to be an educator but prepared to take (and pass) the OAE. His class is easily my favorite to go to I have learned so much from him.

Professor Goff is a pretty solid dude. Talking to him is pretty entertaining. But when it comes to the course itself, he is not the best in my opinion. The majority of what you do is papers and presentations which is mostly fine. But if you are planning on teaching anything other than English, you won't get a good idea of how it is.

Goff is an incredible professor and a great dude overall. He was my professor for my very first class in the education department and I thoroughly enjoyed it. You will be required to read one book that you discuss in class and a book that you will do a group project on. You will write a few 1-2 page papers and two longer papers. 100% recommend him!

Dr. Goff is a wonderful professor with a lot of real-world experience that he uses to help better inform the class. He is so caring and really wants to help his students to become great teachers. For an intro class, this was very easy with a few papers peppered through the semester and a written final. I would definitely take another class with him

Dr. Goff is really nice as a person but was a lousy professor for both EDSE 3500 and 3510. Half the time he never responded to emails, and the entire class was just busy-work group projects. You will just sit and do nothing for the 14 weeks out of 15 that it isn't your groups' turn to present. I learned absolutely nothing about being a teacher.
