Reviews of professor Christopher Benoe

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Great class, very organized and straightforward. Several assignments due each week, but most as simple tasks. Very good, engaging prof. Provides a lot of inspirational material, weekly lectures, and sometimes powerpoints. His feedback is always very helpful to point out good work along with areas for improvement. No textbook needed.

If youre gonna take a photography class you need to take one with Chris. Hes a super chill professor and is really passionate about photography and it shows clearly in his class. His class was a lot of fun, I wouldnt say it was easy, definitely put in the work. Chris is great especially when you need extra clarification on some assignments.

Everyone in my class would talk to each other about "the student he hates". That was me. I payed attention, participated, asked questions, didn't talk while he was talking, all around I was a good student. But I have trouble understanding certain teaching styles, and his was much too quick. At a certain point he just gave up on helping me.

Amazing, SUPER friendly, fun, generous, kind professor. I took an asynchronous class, so all assignments are due sunday @ 11:59pm, and they're really straightforward and simple. He responds to emails fast, gives amazing feedback to help students improve, no quizzes, a midterm and a final. definitely recommend to anyone!

Took this class during the COVID-19 pandemic. Chris is the only photography teacher I had who didnt make the jump to online well. In this photography class, we instead learned how to take mediocre videos and cooking. I learned one unique photography technique in the entire class, which I had to teach myself anyways bc lectures were nonexistent.

Awful professor. He expects you to spend so much money on his classes. I am appalled by the fact that he expects us to spend upwards of $40-50 on our final project. He doesn't understand that some of us may not be able to afford this awful price. And he requires you to spend out of pocket for the entire class. He makes you print out assignments.
