Reviews of professor Shawn Athanasios

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
This dude assigns so much work it's insane. It wouldn't be as bad if he didn't include so many stipulations and directions. You will spend so much time doing all his work and then he'll grade it super harshly. I wouldn't take him again

If you have the option to take Professor Athanasios, DO IT! I loved this class and how he taught it, it offered lots of opportunities for grades to help keep your grade up. He is very understanding if you miss class do to being sick or care troubles like I had, but I did show up every other class I could. The topics were very interesting in class!

Easy class, but the professor makes it hard for no reason. He also "preaches" so much, so get ready for sensitive topics to be brought up in class. Instead of learning, I found myself tired of hearing him talk about his personal life. Again, class assignments are easy but the professor talks too much about irrelevant and SENSITIVE topics.

He was a great professor he really cares about his students. He gives amazing lessons and genuinely cares to teach you to think for yourself and find different ways of seeing things. Class is never boring with him as he makes it interesting and always has something to talk about. The class was easy all he asked was for us to participate and listen

I think this class would've been way better in person. It felt like he brushed his online students to the side. Tests were tricky and long. A few projects with a lot of detailed instructions. Follow them very closely! Overall would not recommend this class be taken online, in person's probably better. Tough grader & pays attention to every detail.

Great professor! He really wants you to succeed and he will make you do work. The work is easy as long as you follow the examples and directions. He gives really good life advice and makes learning fun. Class feels shorts because of how entertaining he makes it.

I took this online class expecting it to be an easy class, but it is not at all. The content isn't difficult but he gives WAY too much work for an online class, and it is almost unmanageable. He also is a really tough grader. I would not take him again.

Took the class online. The class wasn't too difficult, but he assigns you a TON of work. It does help you for the tests, but just go in prepared to have a lot of work assigned to you.

I took his class over the summer and it was alright. However, the workload he gave in one month was too much. He grades too harshly. There are times where he does not respond to emails even if you write them exactly how he wants you to write them like in the syllabus. Do not take his class unless he is the last professor available for the course.
