Reviews of professor Jack Paine

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Paine was very passionate about the content he lectured on. I enjoyed the content of the course and each of the six assignments was straightforward enough. The only thing that would have made the class better would have been a more exact rubric for the papers as many essay prompts can be a bit open ended.

Professor Paine is decent. The class is not as interesting as I thought it would be, and a lot of reading is assigned. Though Prof Paine lets you know that skimming is expected, if you are someone who prefers less reading, but in depth, this is not a good class. The lectures can be interesting, but grading is harsh. That may be the TA though.

Prof Paine has potential, but tends to let his lectures get sidetracked by the students asking questions every 10 minutes. Though its nice that he cares, he just needs to tell them to come to office hours, rather than letting them make a lecture into a QandA.
