Reviews of professor Sean Goforth

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
This is probably the worst class I've ever taken. I barely made an A. He might be better in person, but this class was terrible to take online. The lectures are boring and hard to follow. You have to read the textbooks as well. You are only graded in 4 areas, which leaves little room for error. There are no opportunities for corrections.

Be prepared for a LOT of reading, lecture watching, and note taking. Does not ease up at all on summer classes. I would recommend if he is synchronous online (zoom meets) or in person (I've had him before). Super tough grader on papers, and tests are cumulative (and sometimes super specific). He's fine, not my favorite anymore.

I took this class over the summer.The lectures were very clear. He uses an online textbook as well, the class is very content heavy. The exams were a bit hard, and some questions are there to trick you. His paper grading was tough. You won't pass if you don't study, but it was still a pretty good class!

Honestly, this class is not too hard. unless you; 1) Make the mistake of scanning over the very boring labels for the text we need to read. Because your tests will be in there as well. 2) Miss anything. I failed and there were no opportunities to fix it.

Seems like a good teacher for people who like history and can listen to his boring lectures without falling asleep. Maybe it would have been more interesting if it was in person but good luck if you take any of his classes he definitely does not make anything fun to learn about.

The lectures are extremely hard to focus on because he just sits there and talks in the same voice the entire time. There are 3 exams that can make or break your grade, and he offers absolutely no extra credit, so you cannot bounce back once you have received one bad grade. He also does not explain why you receive bad grades on assignments.

I loved taking Seans class! He's super funny and chill, and he really knows his stuff! You can tell he really loves what he teaches. There isn't much work but because of that you're also not graded on much, so make sure you do the work! The good news is it's not too hard. Just take good notes during the lectures! Highly highly suggest!

Never answered emails over big assignments such as the exams. Retook course with a different professor and did well!

Goforth is an incredibly tough grader and the tests are extremely difficult. In addition, he does not tell you exactly what to study for the tests
