Reviews of professor April Bass

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Online class, so easy to tackle. Assignments were easy and so were the modules. The end of term project was a bit difficult (3 Minute Thesis Project), but talk with the IAs (who mainly did the grading) and you won't have a problem.

Getting anything out of this class requires actually doing the reading and engaging in discussions and group assignments. Dr. Bass is one of my favorite professors, and she cares really deeply about helping students succeed and being flexible and adjusting to students' needs. Great at facilitating class discussion and hardly any lecturing.

Was by far the worst professor Ive ever taken in the four years ive been in college. The tests are ridiculously hard for a 1000 level course, like so much so that my 4000 level classes were easier than this course. Professor is insanely unorganized and is constantly changing things throughout the semester and talks to students like theyre stupid

I took this intro level class after taking the 3000 level course and this class was way harder than the 3000 level course. She blamed the class for her mistakes and had a rude TA. She gave some extra credit, she also gave some extra credit on the 4th test and they were worth .25 points how generous. All in all avoid taking this course its hard.

Her tests are very specific. She tended to blame lack of understanding among the class on the students, not her teaching. When the (4000 level) class struggled with a quiz that was confusingly worded, she asked us if the problem was that we had never had instruction on strategies for taking multiple choice tests. VERY passive aggressive at times.

The professer and the TA did reply to my email. This class was hard because the professor and the TA were creating confusing about the assignment and the grades. The professsor and the TA were very rude. Do not take this class because you will not learn anything, the class is disorganized and the professor is lazy. Be aware do not take it.

The class was easy to pass if you show up and do the work. However, the professor was all over the place and seemed confused on what she was teaching. If you want the knowledge and experience for this class do not take her. Half way through the semester she stopped showing up and claimed a bunch of reasons. She is very passive aggressive.

Great teacher, you can really tell that she wants to teach and develop young minds. I'm not gonna pretend as I agreed with all her opinions but I felt she was always willing to listen to both sides and respectful regardless of her personal opinion. I would definitely enjoy taking another class with her if I could easily my favorite teacher at UNT.
