Reviews of professor J. Williams

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
This class was quite easy for me, and for a person who isn't a economic major. All it really was just 4 test and that was it. No class sessions, just self learn. Which I think isn't the best thing but yet again I am not a econ major. Overall he gives you slideshows and resources and thats really it, if you want to take a easy class I recommend this

Forrest is one of the funniest and wholehearted educators. His grading style was absolutely fair, and every expectation about the class was easy to meet and/or find. Homework is effort based and there are two tests. As long as you take notes during lecture, have a good grasp on algebra, his class is a breeze! If you are in KVR take his class!

The professor explained everything really well and in an efficient manner. I learned a lot about macro economics as a result and passed the class with an A. He's a much better teacher than that econ teacher Jaime Woods, who I think has serious problems and should be avoided at all costs. The course I took was a 10/10

I took Forrest for Game Theory and he was great! I took him again for Urban Economics and the same general grading expectation. We had a group presentation about an urban issue that we got to pick as a class. We had the entire term to complete and present at the end. 1 midterm, 1 final. Closed book. One of the most relaxed professor, ever.

I'm not sure if he is new to teaching or not but I think he should change careers. I emailed him 4 times about an assignment I clearly turned in and he never graded, I got a 0. He was gone 50% of the time and would give an hour/30 min warning. Our final we never received a grade, no %. Just got a letter for our final grade in the class. Terrible.

Professor Williams is a joy to learn from. He is absolutely hilarious! Some of the most fun and entertaining lectures I have ever listened to. The class is a really fun subject that I would recommend to anyone. He is very intelligent, and I can always count on him for solid economics advice.
