Reviews of professor Samuel Fallon

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Doctor Fallon is a fantastic addition to Geneseo English staff. Shakespeare isn't easy, but Fallon makes the content extremely accessible through insightful class discussions and great paper feedback. You will be reading a lot of Shakespeare and writing a bunch too, but the class is well worth it. Fallon really cares and wants you to succeed.

I really enjoyed this class, you get what you put into it. I was a bit of a slacker but also volunteered here and there and always completed my papers on time. His feedback and grades are very helpful and expected based on effort and participation in class. He is a very kind & sweet professor but does not force you to apply yourself or pariticpate.

Professor Fallon is such a great person, but his class is very difficult if you are not paying attention every minute. He would give quizzes every week on readings, and encourages participation. His feedback on papers was not the best as it never elaborated specifically on what to work on. However, he is a very caring and passionate person!

Fallon gave helpful feedback on all of my papers and his lectures were pretty laid-back as well. Attendance is graded, but I maybe went once a week and still got a more-than generous grade on it. He is understanding and a great professor to take if you are trying to satisfy a gen-ed/other requirement.

Professor Fallon is a very sweet and caring professor overall. His assignments are not too hard, and you can always ask questions if you have them. His feedback is also extremely helpful and thorough. I always felt comfortable speaking up in class as he encourages participation, but never forces anyone to talk. Take his class, you won't regret it!

Very comprehensive and engaging class. He's very enthusiastic and appears interested in the subject he teaches, and this evokes that type of feeling in students. The class was run like an informal seminar. The feedback on essays is extremely thorough and helpful, and is probably he most impressive feedback I've received in my academic career.

Professor Fallon is one of the sweetest, smartest professors I have had at Geneseo. I took a class with him last semester and his organization of the class is the same, two papers, an assignment, and lots of pop quizzes (don't worry they aren't too difficult). Class discussions are super fun and interesting, like a book club!

Dr. Fallon is a great professor, very knowledgeable on Shakespeare's works and his life. You can tell that this topic is something he really enjoys. You have to do a sonnet recitation which he works into the class discussion, a couple of papers and a couple of discussion posts on the readings. Not too bad. He made reading Shakespeare enjoyable.
