Reviews of professor Benjamin Apatoff

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
This guy lives off of seeing students fail and will never give you a grade above an 80 on a paper. When you ask for help none is given and he will respond sarcastically to any questions there are assignments due before every single class none of which are short. Do not take any class taught by him unless you like to struggle and ruin your grade!!!

One of the best professors I have ever had.

We have assignments every time we meet. No, the assignments aren't 1 or 2 pages. They're 6 pages and they're due every class date. He gives no feedback at all. Make sure to attend class, its mandatory. I feel as if I'm still in high school. We're not allowed to pack up until the second class ends. We only used the text book once. Also, 12 pg final.

DONT TAKEinsane amount of papers every other day theres something due and reading. You get graded on participating in class based on the readings and pretty much doesn't give A's on papers which are most of your grade. He is fair about making up work but the grading is mainly what is awful. Also one of those teachers that forces their views on you.

This guy is so condescending. I would ask to speak with him after class online and i would ask questions, and he would make this face as if i was a 3 year old who is asking a stupid question. i had his class twice a week and we had a paper due before every class. he also doesn't teach the class we need to read a textbook and learn writing from that

This professor is the most disrespectful person I have ever met! When you simply ask a normal question or are confused about something, HE WILL MAKE A WEIRD FACE AT you to make you think you're stupid. All the hard work you put in the papers will presumably result in a C or B-. Please do not take this professor, he will ruin your GPA.

Apatoff was a pretty good teacher, and was very responsive and reasonable. He was willing to negotiate due dates around common exams, which was very helpful. The class was all writing, building up to a final research paper. We did a lot of peer reviewing, so make sure you are comfortable working with your classmates.

He's nice and somewhat reasonable. Just be aware that his classes consist of a heavy workload, with assignments due almost everyday. His grading is kinda tough, but it definitely helps improve your writing.
