Reviews of professor Matthew Sackmann

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Mr. Sackmann is a great professor. He actually cares about improving your writing and is very understanding if you have issues. The essays aren't bad at all and they will make you a better writer. He always keeps class interesting and was very engaging.

You have to do a ton of extra work just to get an A. If you do all the work you can get a B at most, so even if you work hard on an essay you will only get a B. This class was fairly easy but there was homework after almost every class. Sometimes we would have to read a long story that was nearly pointless. I would not recommend taking this class.

Very unfair grading policy, will not allow above a B unless you do extra credit which entails doing a presentation, and other obnoxious things. Very unorganized, does not use blackboard at all, and uses google docs for everything. He has our grades/missing assignments on a spreadsheet that can be seen by all his 1110 kids even in his other classes.

Lots of group work. The work is so EXTRA and he NEVER gives out a rubric. He thinks he is funny but he is not. He takes attendance but class sometimes is pointless. Makes you walk to (a late class like 5:30-7) class just to say its a workday and you can leave. Overall he is nice but he makes the class unnecessarily hard.
