Reviews of professor Matthew Casey

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Prof. Casey was a great instructor and I enjoyed his class so much that I am taking another with him, even though it is not within my specialty. He's very approachable and helpful. If you are struggling, take advantage of his office hours - he's super helpful and will talk you through readings and assignments that you don't get.

He wasn't bad at all. I took his online version and he was always attentive and corrected issues on tests if it's pointed out. He worked with other professors and made a thing called Study Hall. It actually made history interesting and that's saying a lot as an engineering major.

Professor Casey's class was the most difficult, yet rewarding one I've taken. He holds his students to a high standard and provides exceptional feedback. He is caring and wants his students to succeed. This is what I joined the program for: to be challenged and grow as a historian. If you have the same goal, this class will help you get there.

Dr. Casey is an excellent professor who makes you work hard for your grade and wants you to learn as much as possible. He is there for you if you struggle in his course and is willing to assist you during office hours. The lectures are very interesting as well as the readings. Very laidback professor would like to drink a beer with him.

Prof. Casey is one of my favorites! He's supportive, helpful, and encouraging. His courses are a lot of work, be prepared to read and write a fair amount, but his grading criteria is fair and clear, and he genuinely wants all of his students to succeed. I want to take another course with him before I leave ASU.

I would never take another class with him. He is not professional but condescending. He cannot  give constructive comments. For a MA professor he lacks the ability to interact with students in a constructive way that is meaningful for the students. He contradicts other professors in the program. He maybe a good guy but he is not an educator.

Not that great of a class.
