Reviews of professor Ernest Solar

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Ernest Solar does boast a PHD from GMU, but has a very content poor class. Most of class is just story time. His stories are basic, as he only taught for 7-8 years, compared to his colleagues who have decades of experience. He once told the class he only got a PhD because it was free, which shows in his teaching. He has lacks original research.

Dr. Solar teaches by telling stories instead of lectures. The stories are based on his own experiences teaching in public education. The class is on online class but Dr. Solar's internet connection during my class with him was extremely unstable.  He would often freeze during the class. Class would often end early due to his internet issues.

He is not the best professor and can be very confusing at time. Although, he tells so many funny stories from his past as a k-12 teacher.

Professor Solars online SPED class was miserable. There was no weekly updates on what to do and what to expect. There was basically no instruction at all and you had to teach yourself. He takes weeks to grade stuff, so youll never know what you got until weeks later. I will never take a class with him again.

Others have written that he does not give clear direction, and that is true, but he is also flexible. He will rarely deny an extension and is flexible on many things if you communicate. If you need a professor that guides you, he's not your guy, but if it is a class like SPED308 you should have an easy time
