Reviews of professor Ryan Tans

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
He is really disorganized and seems pretty new to teaching. Class was very group workshop oriented and didn't always feel productive. He is helpful one-on-one outside of class, and is a fairly easy grader, as long as you're willing to put in the effort and clarify assignment expectations. Not the best professor, but relatively easy class.

Considering this class was online I think he could've been better in person, but overall he was a decent lecturer and cared about his students. As long as you study the slides and the case study readings you'll do fine on the tests. The class itself wasn't difficult, but I think it could've been more engaging if he taught in person.

Great teacher. Can be a little scatterbrained at times especially since this is his first year at NAU. But hes the nicest man you will ever meet and he is very flexible with due dates if you need it. Sadly no extra credit options, so most of the grade comes from the essays and there is a lot of reading, but in any 190H class you will need to read.

First off, I had him online so he could be better in person. Overall, he is the definition of mediocracy. Not mean, not passionate, not particularly engaging. Just a man. An average man. He is incredibly uninteresting considering his background and research and it amazes me everyday that he can be so bland. Class not that hard but not fun either.
