Reviews of professor George Backen

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Honestly- I could not understand a thing he was saying I would rewatch his lectures 10-15 times and still would only get a 70% or lower on quizzes. I would not

Even though there might be a couple of homework he does what he can to help you. If you understand what he is talking about and be respectful then he would do the same for you.

I tried hard in this class to receive an A, but anytime I talked to him he would say I'm doing "great" with a B. I got a C on final exam which he said he would "grade easier". No help and would make you feel stupid for having an opinion or asking a question. Acts and grades like we're philosophers and know what we're doing. He made fun of students

Honestly, the worst professor I have ever had, he is very careless. Quizzes are very hard to comprehend. Do not take this class with him!!

Seems like a nice professor, but doesn't help when you ask for it. Grading on discussions are fairly easy-going, but the essays are hard and tests are close to impossible to pass.

Literally worst professor Ive ever had, very rude to all students, doesnt help with a thing you ask and grading scale is absolute bs. Ask a question? Hell make you feel stupid. Need help with something? He doesnt have time for it. Email him? Wont reply. Hes out there to make your life miserable while youre in his class, pick a new professor.

Pretty good professor, just kind of boring. It was a hybrid class so in person was lecture and online was assignments. Lots of assignments and reading. Just do your work and you'll be fine.

Would never take a class with him again. Almost impossible to pass.

The way George set up the quizzes (especially the video & reading quiz answer submissions) was pretty tedious. The timed exams were much too short. Another frustrating factor was that the grammar used in the video quizzes was often hard for me to understand. I decided to grade him as a 3 instead of 2 because he seemed to care that I did well.

I took his accelerated summer course and it was difficult at times but easy enough to pass. You need to read a lot and really listen to the lectures to do well

Gives extra credit opportunities. Clearly cares that students learn the material. Explains difficult concepts well.

I would not recommend. Will give you 0 if you even mention anything outside of course content and will accuse you of cheating.

This teacher is really bad. He is a Dr but look like a beginner in teaching. His reading are poor and not understanding at all. Please never take this class. NEVER EVER TAKE THIS CLASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
