Reviews of professor Richard LaRose

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I never had the pleasure of having him for a full semester. Only 1/6 assignments were marked by him going into the final. He then bailed on our class 2 weeks before the end of the semester and we had to have someone sub in to cram and cover everything he missed. I was very disappointed.

I usually do not like English classes but I really enjoyed this class. He makes everyone feel very welcome and makes sure that everyone's voice is heard. I often left his lectures feeling very inspired! He's a great professor if you have the chance, take one of his classes!!

LaRose is very intellectual, he seems passionate about his job. A few things to take into consideration is that during online course he was not very responsive. His directions were very vague and left many students to question what exactly he wanted us to do for the essays. The class was 100% self-taught but he did seem to grad fairly easy.

Richard LaRose is hands down the best English prof. This year was his first teaching at MacEwan. I loved the content of his lectures and the assigned readings as well. He is open-minded, generous with grades, and extremely flexible with due dates for essays/papers. Just make sure you show up to lectures & you should have no problem receiving an A.

Professor Larose was hands down the best English prof. he is so caring and he is super good at teaching. he is an easy marker but make sure to get a good mark to follow his rubric for assignments. Overall, enjoyed his class a lot! Would definitely take him again.

Prof. LaRose is one of a kind. I genuinely loved going to his lectures, the class discussions really make you think of writing in a new way. I am someone who does not like writing but he changed my mind. I definitely recommend him!!

Best lecturer ever! He is very kind, caring, and helpful. I find literature difficult and sometimes boring, but Richard has changed my mind. His class is amazing, informative, and fun. The best thing, which I really enjoy, is that students feel comfortable to discuss in class with him and I have no fear of being judged. Highly recommended!!!

Great at leading discussions. Very informative lecturer. However he seemed rushed/distracted during spring semester's accelerated pace trying to make time for everything we needed to cover.

He brings up having attended Cornell University just about as often as Andy from The Office, which is either funny or irritating depending on your perspective.

Super helpful down-to-earth professor, willing to sit with you for an hour to help. If you feel like he is confusing or there are things in his lectures that aren't making sense, see him during his office hours.I would totally take him for English again. One concern is that I feel like his assignments are a little too complex for an intro class.
