Reviews of professor Trevor Hale

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
MAYS HAS COMPLETELY RE DONE THIS COURSE. 88% of your grade consists of IN CLASS PROCTORED quizzes. Lectures (which are extremely unhelpful as he reads directly off a powerpoint and expects us to already have an extremely strong base knowledge of stats) are no longer recorded. Take this class anywhere but here! Hale cannot teach!

Professor Hales' lectures are hard to understand sometimes but going to him outside of class is very helpful. If you work hard it is very possible to get an A.

Hale does not know how to teach. There are weekly quizzes in class that are proctored. They are only a few questions long so if you miss one question your grade is screwed. Lectures are not beneficial at all. He reads off of a slideshow that makes no sense. Expect to have to teach yourself. There are no tests, but quizzes make up your whole grade.

Professor Hale assumes that students already know everything about statistics, and he continues to ramble on during class.He lets you drop 2 quiz grades except for the last 2. The last two quizzes happened to be the least comprehensible, and he was least helpful in his SI sessions about those. He basically says there's no way to study for them:(.

His lectures are bad. HOWEVER, the quiz problems are straight from the textbook. If you don't understand the lecture, teach yourself the material from the textbook and GO TO HIS OFFICE HOURS with questions. He is much more helpful there and will give insight on what will be on the quizzes! If you study the textbook the quizzes are doable!! :)

This professor does not care about his students AT ALL. Heard from multiple students how he never allowed for excused absences no matter the circumstance. He always was rude to students and he grades super hard if he doesn't like you. Don't take him.

He is rude, unapproachable, and a terrible teacher. He sets you up for failure and doesn't teach you what you need to know. He goes over no basics about the content and wastes class time with guest speakers who give meaningless speeches. He also makes horrible comments about students, steroids, and drugs all the time.

He does not know how to teach. The class is easy because there's no tests, and quizzes are only a few questions, but you kind of have to teach yourself. Weekly homework but they are usually only 2 questions. He is not qualified to teach a college level course. Does not know what he is talking about.

I love Prof Hale as a person. Super nice, funny and relatable. Now I wouldn't say how he went about BUSN203 was great. I found myself studying most of the class alone, needing help. I hope some of the material is edited, because it seems like an easy class, but then the quizzes hit and you feel like you didn't learn anything from the prior lecture.
