Reviews of professor Justin Shaffer

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
He is an amazing professor! I learned so much, but I had to work for it! It was lots of work but it was work that actually mattered. Shaffer is an amazing professor that is considerate of students and is great at adapting. Over all one of the best professors I've ever had! Best professor in the ChemE department!

Shaffer is awesome. The class is great and he goes over examples very well. Not much else to say, would highly recommend.

Overall a good teacher. Would not recommend missing a class, they are incredibly content heavy

Biology with Shaffer was amazing. Quizzes were tricky but the final was very representative of the quizzes.

Great professor but I'm not a fan of how little everything except the quizzes and final are worth. Lectures are helpful and informative but sometimes don't fully prepare you for the quizzes.

I wish he wrote all the exams.

Dr. Shaffer is great at teaching the material but he is going to make you work for it. Despite all of the extra work, I honestly felt a lot more prepared walking out of class and keeping things interactive made it great. Definitely would consider taking a class from him again.

Took him for bio last spring. He makes it a lot more work than it needs to be, which really makes you learn the material. Labs were kinda lame at times, but Shaffer was a really cool guy. He tries to relate with you and talk to you. Bio definitely not my favorite but Shaffer surely is up there. And he was very helpful when covid hit out of nowhere.

I honestly wasn't the best student in this class; however, he was a great teacher and had great lecture that had slideshows posted online in case you missed class. He is very caring and charismatic which made going to class not feel like a drag. Taking a different class with him this semester, highly recommend.

Dr. Shaffer was amazing. I have had multiple classes with him, and I will take every opportunity I get. He is very down to the students level when explaining problems, and uses a technique that resembles the EDGE method of teaching. I've never learned material better than in this class. Don't get too down if you struggle on a quiz here and there

I had Shaffer for bio and now A&P. He really puts effort into teaching. He has a flipped classroom and I get that his style of teaching isn't the best for everyone (I don't love it) but he does seem to make it work. He always tries to answer everyone's question and makes class seem casual and inviting. Definitely take Shaffer if you get the chance.
