Reviews of professor Andrew Coates

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Not an easy A. Grading was a little bit harsh and there was a lot of reading and videos you needed to do before class which was annoying. Nice prof though and very available/willing to meeting for office hours.

Coates is hands down the best professor I've had at Duke. He makes material so accessible and the general outline of his classes are well-organized and thoughtful. He teaches in a way that makes you want to be a scholar of his subject. Truly an interesting and considerate professor.

great class! not necessarily an automatic A, but definitely doable: need to put good analysis into discussion posts and final paper. however, very easy workload, and you learn a lot! class is just open discussion and with a 45-person class, so you don't need to participate that much. def would take!
