Reviews of professor James Covington

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
It was a really easy class. I skipped class most days and still did good on the tests. Theres quizzes on canvas, 4 tests, and one concert report. He posts review guides before the tests with all of the terms you need to learn. You'll have to memorize a lot of things for the tests but it's not too bad.

Four tests, last one being the final, a 1 page paper, and about 10 online quizzes. If you go to class this is an easy A. If not, the notes are on canvas. I didn't really care for the subject, but I did learn some neat things and Dr Covington doesn't make it any harder than it has to be.

He's really chill and makes dad jokes a lot. I showed up to class but it isn't mandatory because he posts all the slides after lecture and gives a study guide with everything you need to know on the test. Only downside was that he didn't give any online tests so you have to show up on test day for like 10 minutes. Really enjoys teaching

Easiest A ever. Never went to class. He gives study guides before the tests, and if you just do the study guide and memorize it then you'll make an A on the test. Online quizzes are easy and concert reports are even easier. Take him instead of taking the class online, trust me.

Covington is a pretty cool guy. The exams come straight from the study quides usually studied the night before and did pretty well. Recommend making a Spotify playlist for the songs on his exams. The quizzes take about 30-45 mins. You have to go to one concert and get it stamped as one of the requirements for the class and write a short paper. Ez A

Dr. Covington is an amazing professor. If you have no prior music knowledge, it is a little tough but going in with prior knowledge is helpful. Even on basic things. HE is a kind, caring man and he will attentively respond to emails. I highly recommend this class for a GPA boost, I only received a B+ because I forgot to study for a test so study!

Cool guy if you can understand his humor. Attendence isnt mandatory, but it helps with the listening links. You get a study guide the week before, which is mainly people and things about those people. Tough A, but Easy B. Quizzes are easy.
