Reviews of professor John Hale

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Hale is incredibly kind, and is one of the most engaging lecturers I've ever had. I've had him for two classes and enjoyed them both- would definitely recommend him for anyone with a genuine interest in linguistics

VERY GOOD TEACHER! LOTS OF HOMEWORK!!! BUT easy to accomplish

Wouldn't recommend! Takes 3+ weeks to grade assignments, is disengaged & robotic, doesn't give clear answers or feedback, and knocks you points for using the paper formatting HE provided. Forums, 4 quizzes, 2 research proposals, midterm, and final.

I really enjoyed taking Psychology 101 with Professor John Hale. I expected a lot of reading because it's Psychology but his contents were easy to read, even though there's so much information each week. The forums were easy and very interactive. I liked how there were only two assignments due and then the final exam. He always had great feedback!

The class was fast paced. Expectations were fair. He was approachable and eager to help when things came up. For an online course, this was refreshing to get an instructor that was understanding and realistic.

Very demanding with assignments but is very communicative and very helpful. Will answer any questions within 24 hours.

He was very upfront about expectations. He was also understanding about personal issues popping up and did what he could to help when needed. Being a class at the end of my program I have talked with other students and the ones that have a problem didn't follow instructions or wanted special accommodations. I plan on asking him to be a reference.

I love how he graded. I think he understands most taking this course are taking it for a Gen Ed requirement. I think he grades very liberally. Maybe my papers were better than I thought, but I just about aced both of them. My guess, as long as he sees you put effort in them, you will get a good grade! 1 Paper and 1 PPT presentation.

fine class, fine professor. it's a decent amount of work, and it's not easy, but it's also not super hard. you have to put the work into this course. he's a nice teacher. there's a project at the end of the semester & can work on it with classmates.

The professor is one of the most inspiring lecturers I have ever seen. Taking these lectures made me reconsider what kind of research direction I should pursue for my future.

Easy A. If you do the work and turn it in on time you will get an A. That is if you dont mind waiting. He takes too long to grade and will leave you guessing on the feedback. Reading is excessive for a 100 level class. Wont receive much in comments back from him. Thanks for the A, hopefully wont see him again.
