Reviews of professor Kelly Biers

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
A very nice, friendly guy. Grading system is pretty different from most classes but he will explain it well and tries to lay it out as simply as he can, plus you get used to it.

Professor Biers is excellent. I've really enjoyed taking French 130 this semester. He is friendly, approachable and very knowledgeable about both the French language and pronunciation of it. I would definitely and probably will take him again at some point in my college career.

Dr Biers is a good professor & you will definitely learn in his class. Theres a lot of homework but he does have a grading setup that gives leeway to miss some things depending on the grade you're shooting for. Very educated in linguistics. He's good at explaining things & always available for questions. You have to participate tho, like constantly

Professor Biers is a nice and friendly teacher. He gives immediate feedback to your work (and pronunciation) if he sees it (or hears it), and is open to in-class questions. He gives a lot of homework that is checked at random, so if you miss a day then it may not a problem. Test and quizzes are not difficult but not easy either.

I have taken Dr. Biers twice. He is a wonderful professor, cares about his students, makes you feel seen/heard/validated, and supports you in the ways you ask. He has a great sense of applying different theories in ways that allow us neurodivergent folks to be able to grasp concepts from a fun approach. I always felt safe confiding in him, 15/10!!

 I was absent for a chunk of classes because of mental health reasons and he was super helpful to me and let me make up the assignments I miss.

~this is for WGSS 100~ Professor Biers is incredibly sweet. I like that he encourages group discussions in class. He allows us to choose our own grade so if you put in the effort - you should come out with an A+. He gives chances on assignments because he generally cares about our well-being and the grades we want to achieve. Highly recommend him!

*Important note: I took Kelly Biers for WGSS100 but the website won't let me pick that*

I won't lie, there is a lot of reading and a lot of lectures. If you put in the effort, he will do his best to help you. He doesn't expect you to do everything right the first time, but he DOES expect you to try again. Great professor! I would take him again.
