Reviews of professor Cory Shoemaker

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
He is rude when you meet with him and reads directly off of his powerpoint slides. The tests are much harder than what he talks about in class. Definitely dont take him!

He is a great passionate professor. He really makes an effort to make the material interesting to non science majors. I recommend him. He gives extra credit quizzes that help a lot.

Great teacher, very passionate and knowledgeable about not just plants, but most everything. Lectures are entertaining. Posts slides online. If you just pay attention and study an adequate amount, you'll be fine.

Did not like this teacher at all... very difficult class, he made it much more difficult than the other Biology I teachers. I emailed him about my grade at the end of the semester and he never emailed me back. Hated the class and didnt like the teacher much more.

This class was not bad at all. He was very passionate about what he was teaching. He did move fast through the slides, but he put all of the powerpoints online. The pop quizzes he gave were for extra credit, which really helped. If you just study the powerpoints and put it a little effort, it is an easy class to make an A or B in.

He's a fun lecturer and he loves the material. He does go over a lot in class but he always posted the slides afterward. It was easy for me to understand and I'm normally terrible at science.

Gave harder tests than any other professor and tested on way more material. He also reads directly off the slides and goes way too fast so I end up doing it all on my own time. No study guides or extra credit opportunities. Do not take him.
