Reviews of professor Ryan Joyce

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Prof. Joyce clearly cares for his student's well being. I learned a lot in his class. There was a lot of homework, but if you just do it consistently, you'll get an A. His class was amazing! He is super friendly, which helps learning material easier, more accessible. I recommend him!

Prof. Joyce is super cute and nice, but does not realize that this is just an intro level class that his students are taking because it fills a requirement. He has no concept of what a reasonable amount of homework is, and expects way too much from his students on topics that are hard to grasp.

All of the intro french classes at Tulane follow the same structure for homework and tests, so that was not different at all. Professor Joyce is very nice and tries to keep classes fun and interesting. He wants his students to succeed and is easy to talk to. A solid choice for french 2030

Professor Joyce is a nice guy and clearly cares a lot/knows a lot about the course material. He's not necessarily that engaging, but he makes the information available in very accesible ways.

Professor Joyce apparently doesn't realize that most people take this class just to fulfill a requirement. He assigns an insane amount of reading every class and the lectures are structured solely around readings which gets repetitive and boring. Participation is also the most important part of your grade but he grades for it super hard.

This class has too much required reading and lectures are pretty boring since they are based on readings. Most people are taking this class to meet a requirement and he doesn't seem to realize that. This class was way harder than need be due to the ridiculous amount of reading required and because he grades harsh.
