Reviews of professor Ryan Stears

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Love this professor! Readings were quite interesting, along with the assigned movies! Do not hesitate to take this class if it sounds even remotely interesting to you. Ryan is one of the nicest professors I've ever talked to at my time in Bing, and when I went to office hours to ask questions about my final paper, he was very helpful!

Absolutely amazing instructor. Very lenient and understanding of circumstances. The content that is given is very interesting and the workload is extremely manageable despite the short winter session. Would absolutely take the class again, even in person.

By far one of the nicest professors at Binghamton. I took his K-Pop class and it was awesome. He is very clear on what you need to do to get an A.

Ryan is one of the best teachers I've had at Binghamton!! Easy to talk to, smart, fun, creative, and makes an effort to keep everyone engaged. He also has reasonable expectations for his students. Only a little late on grading things but he has a lot of students and gives good feedback. Definitely take a class with him.

Grades are participation heavy - discussion posts, responses, and journals. There is also a final essay. He makes himself very accessible outside of class, making it easier for when you have questions. He is very kind and open to getting to know his students.

Instructor Sears is absolutely wonderful. His class was clearly designed with such care and he truly wants to make sure everyone succeeds. He's a very friendly person and is easy to reach when you need to talk to him about something. The class was very fun and he definitely increased my interest in the subject! Take this class if you can!

I took this course during the summer. The professor was caring, understanding, and easy to contact. The workload was manageable with time management, consisting of mainly reading fun articles, discussion post and a written assignment. On paper, the assignments sound like a lot but they truly are fun to complete.

Cannot say enough good things about my TA Ryan. Simply an amazing person who wants you to do well. Hope to take one of his classes one day.
