Reviews of professor Laverne Seales

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
This class is insanely difficult. She assigns so many projects that it forces you to prioritize her class over everything else. She refuses to make accommodations for students, regardless of how reasonable they are. She is aware of all the criticism but she doubles down and refuses to listen. People have dropped the Spanish major because of her.

Dr. Seales is extremely unorganized. She takes forever to give you your papers back. Super tough grader too. She never put grades online until the end of the semester. The interview and final presentation make up most of your grade. The 20 page grammar journal is a waste of time and only worth 10 points. Make sure to participate

She is a great person but as a professor, very unorganized!! make sure to come prepared with the readings assigned because she expects a lot of discussion and will give out quizzes almost every day. She just needs to be clear about what she wants and when she wants it. You can only have up to 3 absences. Class material was interesting

Dr. Seales is very unprofessional. She clearly has favorites, even if she denies it. Your grade is basically earned from what mood she is in, because she changes her mind all the time. She states to be fair, but doesn't follow her syllabus. As well she invalidates students feelings and doesn't care about their time, only hers. Don't take her class.

Dr. Seales was amazing, I enjoyed her class so much. She really likes people who participate and are engaged in the conversation. I thought her grading was fair and clear, although she did not update grades on a timely manner, if you did the reading and participated you would have a good grade.

I love Dr. Seales, she's caring and understanding of students. I took 315 with her which is a Spanish Literature class. Personally hated the readings and the quizzes after every reading. But she makes them interesting when we get to class and tries to connect it with things that are happening today. Its an interesting class. Participation is HEAVY.

Prof Seales is amazing at what she does but is a little scatterbrained and that does affect the class. However she cares about her students and she is great to talk too. The textbook use is a hit and miss but you do have to read a lot. She cares mostly about participation, it can really change your grade so TALK!

she was very unorganized. for the first 15 mins of class she talks about her sons education and how he doubled majored and how we should too which is not part of the class. i didn't understand how she teaches and was very confusing. went to fast and wasn't straight forward. there are other reasons but i'm glad i dropped this class!

Hard grader, has high expectations, but if you do as she suggests you should be fine
