Reviews of professor Michael Taylor

Amazing caring professor, he's really sweet

Boring. Tests on material not covered in class at all, so you have to do the readings, and then remember random stuff from that reading. I always wanted to fall asleep during this class. At least he seems to grade a little easily. Don't recommend.

Avoid this class. The lectures are borderline useless as everything you are tested on comes from the textbook, his notes are gibberish and impossible to study. Save your GPA and take any other class so you actually learn something.

He literally ruined my enjoyment of learning in this class. I cant keep up with notes and he never is clear on what anything means. Take any other liberal arts class besides his. Theres a lot of papers that barely count torwards your average. I get this is college but you should at least be clear in lecture

If you're considering taking this class, my advice is to avoid it. The professor doesn't cover much of the test material, and the quizzes are challenging. If possible, switch to a different class to save your GPA and sanity.

The worst. The tests are the hardest things because they are on random parts that he didn't even go over and has barley anything to do with the class but is worth so much of your grade. he seems like he means well as a person but just isn't a good professor

After half of a semester of watching Narcos in class, I got an A on the first paper and a 97 on the test. There is no homework only 2 tests and 2 papers. All you need to do is memorize the key terms he puts out a week before the test. Every question on the test is on it, a couple hours of studying is worth a semester of doing nothing.

He didn't answer any of my emails all semester, I sent 20 emails, he responded to ZERO. He literally deleted assignments that we did weeks ago just because he was behind on grading when we had like 5 assignments. He is a very difficult grader and honestly is so frustarting.

Extremely boring and difficult to follow lectures. Class is poorly organized and lecture is practically useless for the two writing assignments. Also, he wears the same suit every day, which isn't necessarily bad, but just a little weird.

Great lectures, very easy tests. Hardest thing about the class was the papers but there were only 2 papers 5 pages each. Attendance for lecture and discussion mandatory. Tests were unbelievably easy and fair. Not looking to screw anyone over. Very nice guy, very knowledgeable, definitely take this class for a gen ed if needed.
