Reviews of professor Leslie Coffman

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I loved Coffman. She was easy to pass as long as you came to class and took notes. Also, the tests are passable AS LONG AS YOU STUDY. You cannot just come in and wing it you won't do well, however, if you put the time in to prepare she is not a harsh grader. I would 100% do the course again. She was easy to understand and unbiased in her lectures.

Professor Coffman was an awesome teacher to have. I was never bored by her lectures, and I was always kept interested in the material. She will always gave you what you need in lectures to complete your assignments or essays. She is also a fair grader, and lays out what she expects. A great professor, and would 100% taker a class of hers again.

I loved her online class! She has 5 discussion posts based on some textbook readings, online articles, and videos. There's also a make-up and bonus discussion post for extra credit, and a bonus MC quiz. She provides a course schedule that helps with knowing what's going on each week and she explains her assignments well. An easy A if you try :)

This is a difficult class if taken during summer! The feedback given is a little hard to go by. If you fix what she asks you to you'll fail the next whatever it is. The online version only had mini essays/discussion posts rather than exams, but I followed the feedback given and went from an 89 to a 67 on the next DP because I followed her feedback!

she was by far my least favorite teacher, took forever for her to grade material. she is very strict with her grading. she came off as a rude know-it-all in her emails. her rubrics seem clear until you actually do the work, i do not recommend her class

Most work was in text-heavy discussion posts that seemed very intimidating. If you approach it a little at a time, you should be okay. Unfortunately, the syllabus is very firm in not offering many extra credit opportunities, and a missed assignment could not be submitted late, an instant 0, so I didn't see a point in communicating with the Prof.

Prof. Coffman is a great instructor who most definitely knows her stuff when it comes to history. Her class is very lecture heavy and most of the important info comes from her speaking, so you have to pay attention in lecture. There aren't as many homework assignments as there are readings, and expect lots of pop quizzes.

Professor Coffman definitely knows her stuff, but there aren't any resources if you have to miss class and that puts you at a disadvantage for exams because the class is heavily lecture except for small activities that students complete throughout the semester in class. So great information, there's just no good way to catch up if you have to miss.
