Reviews of professor Brent Woodfill

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I dreaded coming to this class every week. He only talks about himself/his kid. He doesn't take anything seriously. He talks about completely off-topic and inappropriate stuff in class. It is not a professional or educational setting at all. I would never wish this upon anybody.

Dr. Woodfill is newer to Winthrop but he is a GREAT ADDITION to the Anthropology Department! He is very down to earth and has great lectures. Considering he has not taught much policy of Archaeology in a classroom setting, he has done a great job. His tests are okay, make sure to know chronological order and names of people. Study guide is given.

Dr. Woodfill is a RARE FIND!! He is passionate about what he does, quirky, and hilarious. He is super laid back and down to earth. If you get easily bored however, the class is full of extreme details about Meso American culture and the lectures tend to be a bit long and you might feel sleepy. He is great overall!

He is one of the best I recommend taking him for any class

I hated this class. I dreaded it. He only wants to talk about himself and his studies that aren't relevant to the class or the test. It's a gen ed requirement and I wish I could've taken something else. Not a hard class, I just genuinely hated every second of the classes. Super boring and painful.

An amazing person, Soley is concerned about his passion for teaching and the well-being of his students.

Definitely try to atleast skim the textbook before exam. Tests aren't awful at all but he doesn't give anything away,and studyguides are provided. Really interesting class and he has a lot of outside experience which calls for some interesting stories.

He is literally one of the best professors at Winthrop. He's definitely chatty but it was by far one of my favorites and I'm not even an anthropology major.

I think his most admirable quality is his transparency with his students. He will tell you everything you need to know in advance. He'll respect your intelligence during lectures and he'll ask little questions to keep your attention. He could be a little more engaged, but that's about it. Clearly passionate about his work, easy to communicate with.

He is really nice, and his class is pretty easy. The hardest things are the test, but they are online. You do not have to go to class but I found it relaxing to listen to him and work. He also might mention something during class that is not in the notes.
