Reviews of professor Frankie Flood

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Frankie is helpful, attentive, creative, and if you listen to him talk for just 2 minutes you can see how passionate he is, not only about metals and fabrication but about teaching and pushing us to learn and step out of the box and do well in life. He is so knowledgeable you could ask him a question about anything and he would know the answer.

I respect Frankie, he really knows his stuff as a craftsman. However, I thought his projects were gimmicky, and I think he focuses more on craft than making interesting work. Not a bad professor, especially if you're really technical, but I didn't find working with him very valuable to my growth as an artist.

This man will inspire you and change your life. Frankie is the most knowledgeable professor I've ever had. He is easy to talk and always willing to help. He will also help you outside of class to if you need it. Frankie is well respected by everyone in the art department.

One of the best instructors / people I have met. We have had our ups and downs, but I have never seen a professor who has a passion for education as he does. Whether you are a seasoned metal smith, or learning metal for the first time, you will learn something from him.

Ignore class, had him for Soph/Jun Seminar in Spring 2022. He's a very hard worker and follows grinding your passion from sun up to sun down. Will never take him again, because his communications skills are an atrocity. When I privately brought to him mental issues, he shared it with the entire class and told us to drop out if we had depression.

Frankie is an amazing professor. He is very knowledgable but also humble and a clear easy to understand teacher. If you have the chance to take his class please do. The class is not easy but Frankie is understandings and knows that you have other things going. He is the reason I changed my major to studio art.
