Reviews of professor Gustaf Atilla Hallsby

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
The best professor I've ever had!Difficult concepts to grasp but he really makes sure everyone understands the material and goes out of his way to help everyone. Professor Halsby added extra credit towards the end of the semester in order for us to get an extra grade boost. He understood we have other classes and homework, 100% would recommend.

Professor Hallsby is great. This is a pretty difficult class, but he genuinely cares about his students doing well. He was super accomodating with deadlines and extensions. He also explains things really clearly. He goes over quiz and exam answers during class, so if you go to class you should do pretty well.

Hands down the most organized professor I have ever had, very nice and willing to offer extensions if needed.  Rhetoric is a complicated subject however, so I would not recommend it unless you need to take it for a major/minor. That being said he does everything in his power to make it easy for you, it was just challenging for me personally.

Pretty lecture heavy on some heavy material but he made it simple to where you didnt feel lost. Pretty caring and adjusted the way about doing some things which showed he really wanted us all to succeed.

Prof. Hallsby allows multiple attempts on tests and quizzes and will almost always grant an extension if you need one. This semester he had to take on extra classes (and had a baby!) a few months in, but he still gave 100% to his students, continued to give thorough feedback, answered questions, and remained helpful during class time.

Hallsby has a funny sense of humor and it always relates to class topics. It makes a dry subject more fun to learn when using examples from modern television and movies. I was amazed by how articulate he was but, sometimes it seemed like I was listening to a reading of an academic paper. BUT he always left time for clarification if needed.

The professor is very accommodating and generous. He is a pretty easy grader and he also goes over quiz and exam answers in class. Everything for the quizzes and exams are in the text book, highly recommend getting it.
