Reviews of professor Lloyd Beckles

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Beckles was no use as an Economics professor. There were no lectures and the entire course had to be self-taught from the textbook. He was snarky when answering questions and often replied "you're overthinking this" when asked an in-depth question. He didn't seem to be focused on students' success but on doing as little work as possible.

Dr. Beckles is one of the most passive-aggressive, self centered teachers I've had the misfortune of meeting. He gives you a textbook and nothing else, and his language makes it seem like he believes no one is good enough for his standards. I am a math-savvy student, but the sheer amount of reading required set me back.

Just assigned textbook work, no other sources provided to assist students. There was only one assignment each week, and it was either an assignment, a test, or an exam. All of which are just answering questions provided by the textbook. Provides no room for late work or extra credit.

Everyone outside of the US wonders why Americans are so unintelligent and clueless. It's because "professors" like these mindlessly follow the opinion of men who think their opinion matters so much that it instantly becomes fact. This course is a propaganda tool created by the school board to make you believe you can't do anything with your life.

I took this as a hybrid class and we met about 4 times that semester. His lectures were great and he was very funny. You will definitely use the textbook and make sure you show up to class because he explains some major concepts. He was really cool and even cancelled our final exam because he felt in the mood for Christmas, would take again.

This teacher only gave you your textbook and expected you to read hundreds of pages in a short time. There was no outside help, too, other than the textbook, making you fend for yourself in this class. This class did not even need a teacher, as everything was graded by a pre-made test. My grade was 2 high A's, 89 and 88, and yet I still got a 90.

Barely even worth taking the class other than the fact it's credited to a degree. You would get the same amount of information from just reading a book or watching an in-depth youtube video. If you can take this course with anyone other than Dr. Beckles, do it. Zero tolerance for late work and all work is just tests ripped straight from the book.

I took this class to finish my last requirement to graduate high school and it was miserable. He takes everything straight from the book, doesn't elaborate on any of the material, and gives you quizzes and tests on 5 chapters at a time. I do not recommend him as a professor.
