Dr. Bender was an awesome teacher. He literally cares and treats you like a human being. Only 3 essays, 1 résumé, & discussion boards. He gives great feedback & gives you a chance to redo your essays for a better grade. Grading is a little heavy. Attendance is extra credit so show up. Definitely recommend him & will be taking him for ENG 122!!!!!!!

DO NOT TAKE. The final alone is 150 questions and 40% of your grade which is absurd. He offers no material to study for the exams and his exam reviews are utterly useless. He will just tell you to review the slides. His exams are extremely specific. You are tested on exam 1 material three separate times. Dr. Czyz ruins a very interesting course.

Dr Reschke is very nice. He loves this subject, and tries to make it interesting. Just make sure to take a lighter load of credits when you take this class-- it'll take a HUGE chunk of time out of your week. LOTS of readings, lots of notes, big research paper, exams, etc.

I loved Professor Pickett! He made Roman Culture super interesting and actually inspired me to minor in classical culture. As long as you read before class, it's easy to keep along with lectures. Sometimes, there were in-class summaries over the reading. Grading on papers was easy and the rest was based on participation in one debate.

Professor Cummings has an odd sense of humor and her class was, imo for a 581 level class, was underwhelming. She leaned heavily on the course material and we only workshopped one story. I think she needs to rethink how she conducts class because she could be a really great professor with an incredible class, hell she has a PHD(she mentioned a lot)

Awesome professor. Definitely take this course to fulfill your Liberal Education requirements. Very fun class. Lots of writing but its doable.

Get ready to step out of your comfort zone. Although, she might be difficult to approach, she always has a positive attitude. Turn in assignments on time, participate, and you should be fine.

English 102 is known to be a tougher course, but this professor is amazing! He is hilarious and very openminded. If you get the chance to be in his class I would highly recommend taking it. He's very understanding and conversation is engaging.

Grade for the course is mostly determined by homework which is 37% of the class. The homework has no basis, classwork and class notes are useless due to the inconsistency, inaccuracy, and completely unhelpful. There is no adequate preparations for exams, solutions are not posted to further your understanding. Exams do not reflect what is taught.

Kemp was straight to the point and didn't make us read super dramatic old english. I liked how he chose articles that fit my short attention span and also made discussions that made us think! Great and lighthearted experience overall

He was so nice and sweet! Class was filled with him just teaching how to code and was boring so i never went. No assignments the whole semester and the we had like 7 things due on the last day of class. it was 4 homeworks and 3 projects. If I didn't have help from a friend in the class i would have failed bc i never went to class.

Pretty good instructor. Always prepared with the material but not necessarily with the logistics of the class or grading. The tests were really nitpicky where some of the questions would be on something mentioned in class once and then never again. This and the fact that the midterms had very few questions meant a high chance of losing points.

By far the worst professor Ive had at KU so far. If you can avoid taking her class by all means do so. The escalation from in class examples, to homework, to tests is extremely unreasonable and she gives no review content whatsoever and will teach new content up until the day before the test. Also does not respond to emails outside of school hours

I took this class asynchronously and honestly it wasn't the best. There are weekly discussion boards but basically your entire grade is structured around a big paper. You either get an A or a D in the class, there's really no in-between. I'd pick a different prof, y'all.

She was the best professor in my opinion. Easy A class. Participate and you will understand things clearly. She reviews quizzes, midterm and final and they are quite similar when sitting for the exams. She is a fun teacher and super caring. I recommend taking her! I would take her again if I had the chance.

If you can avoid taking an Iglesias class, do it.

Unfortunately, I had to drop her class even though she was an excellent teacher. Her teaching made everything easy, but it didn't fit my schedule.

I had Dr. K last year for modelling. He gave amazing typed notes, helped me modify my master's project to be appropriate for the class project, and even helped with the software as well. We also got a month of class time for the group project, which was great since we had one member commuting from far away. Easy A+, easy exams.

If you can take this course with him, definitely take it!!! You are guaranteed an A if you pay attention in the lectures. This is HARD class, he makes it a piece of cake!

Robert is a caring professor, he is very knowledgeable. However, I took this class online, he was hard to access. He didnt respond in a timely manner to any emails/canvas messages. He will change major things in the class w/o telling students. I wouldnt take him again, but I was successful in his course after many hours of tutoring. I got an A.

Shannon is very knowledgeable in her field, but is absolutely atrocious at teaching it. All "learning" was done outside of class times with readings and workbooks, which had nothing to do with the content of the class. That is to say, most days we just sat in class listening to her talking about who she met in her travels and how it impacted her.

Professor Roda's class is a great choice for the SFS proseminar. She chooses interesting (sometimes long) readings, and she does a great job helping students transition from high school into college. I took this proseminar during COVID, and she was so compassionate, accessible, and understanding throughout the semester. Fun class.

Very laid back and obviously knows what he's talking about. He doesn't have very many assignments throughout the year so participation, attendance, and tests are very important to keep track of. Test format and questions could use some work, however if you study thoroughly and take good notes you will most likely pass this class.

She was very clear about grading procedures and always available for office hours. She graded assignments promptly and offered extra credit. We had a test every week which were fairly difficult. You definitely need to watch the lecture, read the book and spend lots of time memorizing. Take advantage of office hours.

I took her during the Wintermester. The class material itself was easy, and her discussions were engaging, but her tests were difficult even after reading all the chapters and notes she provides. A solid class, easy to pass in general, but if you want an A her tests will have you really working for it.

As a student of the Regional Center, I had to take the Basic Tech class. Essentially, as long as you complete the assignments by the end of the course, a grade in the A range is pretty much guaranteed. As a bonus, she allows you to be exempt from the final if you get at least an A- in the class. Apart from all that, she's an easy grader.

Great prof! the online (zoom/COVID) version only has one zoom meeting a week and its optional. She is very strict about groupme communication regarding exams, etc. Really read her rubrics but the main project for the class (at least during my semster) was creating an informative graphic which is actually quite fun!

I took this during a spring term. There were 5-6 assignments and 4-5 quizzes due every week. There were 4 exams. The first 3 exams are open note and you can take them twice. You can also take the quizzes twice. You take do the homework assignments 2-3 times. I appreciated how the professor set up the class to help each student do the best possible.

This guy is absolutely hilarious and endearing to watch. He gets very excited about math which is always nice to see. He explains everything very clearly, and will reopen TopHat for everyone. Highly recommend taking a class with him.

Jessica is an incredible professor who cares about students and provides clear and compelling content/instruction. As you walk away from her class feeling empowered and educated, I would recommend Jessica to any student. You do have to do a lot of reading in this course, but I found all readings interesting. You will love her!

I would recommend you take her online winter classes. She removes some large assignments and grades very easily. Only down side is that if you get something wrong or respond to her comments , she does no elaborate or respond back frequently. I would be interested to take an in-person class with her to see the difference.

She is a very sweet lady but okay teacher. She doesnt quite understand how to explain something when you are confused in a different way. She teaches directly out of the text book. You had to teach yourself thhe material before class because there was homework due on things we hadnt even had class on yet. Bring your laptop to class.

BEST TEACHER EVER! I was terrified to start learning French, but Grall really made our class fun and interactive and made it so easy to learn. Hes hilarious and talks a lot about French culture. Id recommend him to anyone who wants to learn French! (Also I took him as a 10th grader in high school and it was really manageable for me)

Great teacher. Simon and Lob were fun to climb with and helpful with improving climbing techniques.

I took his online class. Easy A as long as you do the few things he assigns. Every Friday there was a discussion post or short written assignment due. These were very easy. There were review quizzes before the actual ones and the test were very easy. The 4th test is what he made the final. There was only one paper due. He was very helpful as well!

I took Professor Matcha this summer. His reviews are a copy of his exam. EASY A if you participate and take his review sheets seriously. Complete the homework's, which there are very few.

Best and easiest prof I've had so far. Lectures are actually interesting and labs are fun. She is really cool and laid back and understanding. Definitely take her class if you have the opportunity. Exams are packed with a lot of information so study at least a little bit.

You will write a lot for the class, but his lectures are very engaging and there is no busy work. As others on here have said, take a class with him if you can.

very clear and comprehensive class. attendance on the lectures counts for a lot of points. weekly quizzes, one novel + quiz, 4 discussions on videos pertaining to the class, one class reflection paper, and 4 exams that you will ace if you study the study guide. this was very close to being my optimal online class experience.

This course is easy, but only if you are proactive with your ~4 maker space projects and don't wait until the last minute to do them. This class does take a lot of out of class time, but Glenn is very understanding and is willing to help if you run into problems or need help. There is a lot of group work in this class, so take it with a friend!

Incredible lecturer. Honestly probably one of the best math professors here, and I 100% recommend him. However, be warned - he is an incredibly strict grader and assigns a lot of work, so don't fall behind. Nonetheless, it is clear he truly cares about teaching and wants to see you succeed, and will absolutely teach you well

Natalie is such an amazing professor! She cares so much about film and media, which makes her feedback thorough, thoughtful, and informed. She is very nice and flexible but definitely not a push-over. Don't try to bs with her because she's super passionate and won't have it; stay on her good side!

This class is very independent and you have to discipline yourself when it comes to preparing for your speeches and the reading. The downside is that he doesn't really teach the class, the book teaches you so you're all by yourself. If you ever need help, he gives great feedback and communicates very well.

The class was very easy, but there is a lot of writing. He is very knowledgeable about what he teaches and is very open-minded and kind. He respects all students and their opinions during discussions and lectures. I would 100% take his class again.

Found the teach very good. Clearly knows his stuff. Will not tolerate lazy students in class who come unprepared . Great participation in his class and excellent story telling and examples to drive the point home. Liked it.

he is rewriting the textbook to us only without even examples

Prof. Mommer is an incredibly passionate professor and he wants nothing but the best for all hist students. I took him for summer and enjoyed going to his class each and every time. History is not my strong point but Prof. Mommer made it a great learning experience. 4 exams, all were half MC and half essay. Not too hard if you simply pay attention

Awesome professor! Completely cool and understanding of circumstances regarding a missing assignment or missing a class, he simply asks that you make up the work when you can. He assists you on any and all assignments you have questions about, making math easier to understand. Cool guy and awesome professor. Highly recommend.

She was an alright professor. There were multiple times when she failed to communicate efficiently about what she expected for assignments, which caused confusion amongst the students. Also, she told students she would make some assignments due one day, then have a different deadline on Webcourses. Her communication was not that good at all.

Qifeng is extremely hard to understand but he has really good powerpoints that are easy to follow. He also cares a lot about his students and will help you succeed. Very easy class, weekly homework, and 2 tests including the final. He is also very organized and clear with communication when it's not speaking.

Professor Gugercin is great. Use his office hours because he is very patient and guides you the correct answer. It's better you print class notes before hand so you don't have to write a bunch of notes during class. He has a sense of humor and light up the classroom atmosphere.

Prof was super laid back and understanding. Basically no homework aside from putting the final portfolio together which was super easy. Very positive attitude and super supportive.

As long as you do the readings and homework's you'll be fine! She's a great professor and her lectures are actually intriguing , she puts a lot of effort into making sure everyone is on the same page but make sure you do your part and go to class prepared.

Great professor! In his lecture, he writes notes as he teaches and goes over each type of example you might be expected to know.

Not a fan of weekly online posts, but I am guessing this is a way to ensure students are doing the reading. Grading seems relatively easy. I read a few of my classmates' essays that were poorly written, yet they earned B+s. This is an easy A class! Professor is very good! Engages all students in class discussion. Plus, he is cute! Win win :)

Dr. Crayton is an awesome teacher. Explained everything well! He helped me understand everything that I needed to know. I highly recommend taking him.

Literally the best math teacher ever! Her note-taking skills are AMAZING! They are all color-coded. Her exams aren't difficult if you have taken a good amount of notes and understand the concept of what you're solving. Her final is literally right out of the quizzes, Take her!!! She is so quirky and silly and absolutely loves her cats!!!

This was probably one of the worst online classes Ive had to take so far because of the group work everyone has to contribute to. The professor will answer any questions you may have, but get ready for a load of stress with your group. The quizzes are weekly as well as assignments.

great professor, kinda tough with grading but i know its hard with everything online. has a lot of passion and always spreads it with his students

Class is interesting and should be one of the must-takes if you plan to go into finance. There is a paper due weekly and it is graded kind of tough, but he gives good feedback to put towards the final report. He has a lot of experience in the field and teaches the class the way he views finance.

Definitely a tough grader, but listen to the criticism he has to say. Yes, super tough and won't sugar coat it but is good feedback. Don't take his criticism personally. You have to work for a good grade! Don't expect to slack off and get a B. Hard work goes a long way, and attendance is mandatory so don't miss!

Cristyne is very clear in her expectations. If you follow her rubrics and use the exemplars she provides, it is impossible not to do well. I received a 92% in this course and feel like it has been the most valuable one I have taken given how much I learned about assessment. I don't understand other peoples issues and would dispute her low ranking.

BEST ORGO TA EVER! I have her for Orgo 1 lab and she makes sure everyone in the lab is on the same page and never throws us in the deep end. I never feel clueless or unsure of what to do. She is extremely knowledgeable as well. She is extremely clear with expectations and makes the 4 hour orgo labs bearable. 110% take her if you get a chance!

Prof Carrion is awesome. Grades on a bunch of assignments (not hard) and the midterm & final are alright as long as you came to class and took notes. You don't need to take stats before this class, the math is literally addition and multiplication, skills covered in like elementary school, though she goes over examples in class

Dean is a really great professor. He gets real and deep, never tip-toeing around what he really means. He gave great feedback and help. Don't take if you hate can't be picked randomly to speak. The class was an overall great experience and I will definitely have it in mind for years to come

Doesn't give clear cut instructions on assignments but blames you when she gives you a bad grade on it, often telling students that "this is just how it's going to be in the real world." Strongly stressed the importance of communication as a manager but is horrible at communication herself. Often quite passive aggressive.

Professor Poczter is nice and very fair but is not the easiest. She did everything exactly as she said she would despite some thinking otherwise. Midterm and final are curved but participation matters. The group project is a very large percentage of the grade and takes a lot of effort so make sure to do it well.

The class is a lot, so be prepared when you go to take it. But Hanlon is there to help and gives really good feedback. She gives out review questions before each exam that you have to fill out, but dont email her asking for the answers because she wants you to figure it out yourself. Those exact questions are on the test. Great prof & funny

Professor Grossman is one of my favorite professors at the university. He is very intelligent and his lectures are always entertaining. If you want to learn, he makes it fun and enjoyable. This is the 3rd class I have taken of his and each course was great.

Dr. McNiff is a tough professor, but she's also one of the nicest people I have met here at Flagler. You learn a lot in her class, but she does not give you more than you can handle. She can be intimidating at first, but after you get to know her she's super sweet!

Loved this class! I am not a big writer but this class made it easy. Prof Rehnberg was very caring and had very clear instructions and gave good feedback! Each week reading, a discussion board, and an essay. 4 Units and 4 Essays. Very simple and a very fair grader.

Great guy. But algebraic geometry is superrrrrrrrrrr hard

He's really good-stern but in a good way and patient. Really knows the material inside and out and the class was always something that I didn't mind attending.

Where do I start? Took two of his classes and not sure which was worse. Accent is very thick and hard to understand. Will not slow down, hand writing hard to read, answers questions with the same exact answers. The guy is only there to do the minimum and collect a check.

I always felt included in Mr. Olafsens class and he is a great professor. He is helpful and will make sure you understand everything. He also gives good feedback on revisions and drafts of the papers for his class.

She's super sweet and bubbly and cares that her students are engaged and learning. Group project instructions can be confusing at times due to ambiguity, recommend talking in person for help. Overall an easy class if you come to lecture and study the slides.

Taking this class during covid was crazy hard. An online learning format isn't ideal, of course, but I think Beesley's approach worked well. He gave us recorded lectures and then used class time to answer questions. He had discussion boards in Canvas where we could ask questions as well, so he was always accessible. He was always willing to help.

I took her 396 class during Spring of 2020, and it was the most fun I had that semester. She's very encouraging and cares about the progress of her student's work, which is always a great quality for any professor. Overall, she's a lot of fun. If you're looking to improve your writing or learn more about the creative progress, she's your best pick.

She was an amazing professor. I took her for 111, 112, and Brit Lit. She was great for each class. If I could take her for more classes I would. She tends to grade based on 3 essays, a final essay and a final presentation. She really cares and if you put in the effort then you are guaranteed to get an A. She is great to talk to.

the best psych teacher very understanding and learned many new things in this class

Was her first class teaching, ever. Found out two weeks before the semester started. A ton of students took advantage of these facts and it was super frustrating to watch. She is an EXPERT, without reservation, in her VERY SPECIFIC field. Sometimes her organization was off (explicable by the whole first class, i had two weeks thing). 10/10

350 characters cant even describe how horrible of a professor she is, she doesnt care if you have physical excuse for missing class, like there isnt a whole pandemic right now. Shes disrespectful and wont help you if you ask. Dont waste your money on taking any of her classes, you will regret every moment.

I had professor Holland for math for nurses and this was an all online class due to Covid. He was available to help tutor me whenever we both had time and he was super helpful and gave me encouragement while also giving me tough love to make me better in his course.

C'est l'exemple parfait d'un mauvais enseignant. Il ne connait pas sa matière, copie des évaluations des exercices, probablement parce qu'il n'est pas capable d'en créer lui-même, répond mal aux questions, j'en aurais tellement plus long à dire. J'espère qu'il n'enseignera plus jamais

One of my better profs at Mac, he really knows how to make the texts we read understandable and summarizes the key points well, the time really flies by in lecture. Also engages with his students in lecture which is a plus. Looking forward to more of his classes in the upper years!

I don't understand what he talks about in class even though I tried, so I had to rely heavily on textbook. The bad handwriting makes me so confused in class. OMG I can't

Good at explanations and makes sure that you understand the concept. Good dude and would certainly take again

I took her class a few years back in Financial Accounting. Lecture notes are simplified and unhelpful on their own. Take the time to write and rewrite the models in the book, and read the book, otherwise you wont know what to ask in class, be confused still even in office hours and in study groups. She doesn't make note of this, so keep in mind.

Dr. Kurz is THE BEST, and BY FAR my favorite professor I've ever had at Clemson!! Class entails a pop quiz once a week (5 ?'s) they're really easy if you read what she assigns. Then we discuss the reading all class. It's pretty relaxed. Dr. Kurz is super sweet, truly caring & really funny. She literally made us laugh at least 5x every class.

She does not know how to assess student performance in class and she changed my grade and I dont know why she did it and it was worst experience I have ever had

Dr. Hill is a very kind professor, but I did feel that her expectations were a little high given the course and the content we were dealing with. Given that it's a WR class, it is writing heavy, but you only have one *genuine* paper due at the end of the semester along w a supplemental presentation. Not a bad option if you need a last min WR class

Robyn Gaier, where do I get started. She should quit her job. All she does is laugh at her own jokes, which are not funny and talks the whole time. Her information does not help with the quizzes what so ever, matter of fact they don't help at all. Her quizzes are true or false. That might seem easy but once again they are mainly all trick questions

to be honest, he is the easiest professor to get a good grade in CSU, if you didn't get a good grade. that's because you didn't study.

His class is pretty easy if you show up to lectures and take notes. He's not a tough grader and gives a lot of partial credit on exams.

I strongly believe that she is an excellent teacher. Their ability to explain complex concepts in a clear and concise manner is truly remarkable, and their passion for the subject matter is contagious. I feel incredibly lucky to have had the opportunity to learn from such an inspiring and knowledgeable teacher.

Professor Austin truly cares about her students and will work with you to achieve your goals. I took her class during COVID-19 and she sent out resources and inspirational quotes to us all of the time. Her class is mostly essays, discussions, and textbook reading (I took it online btw)! I would recommend her for any psych classes you take!

Great Instructor!

I absolutely love Dr. Chung. I have had her for NU211, NU271, and NU280. She is the best Professor ever. Her lectures are clear, and if she doesn't have the answer she will look it up and get back to you. She truly cares about the students and their success. She will give you clear guidance on how to study and what to study for the tests.

Her flipped classroom model was actually good. She explains all the logic you need to know in order to tackle the problems. Set aside time to watch all the videos. I typically did this on weekends. Going to the review days are actually helpful and prepare you for the homework. Tests are easier than the homeworks. Only gets hard after module 8.

She puts lecture notes online, however, you have to attend class because what she verbally says during lectures are more important for notes. She is not very clear on the guidelines for her assignments, making it difficult. She'll get upset if people don't participate in class. It's easy to get lost in the lecture cause it's too much history.
