Doesn't know anything about art

she really doesnt know how to teach

Nasty. Made students cry

SHOULD NOT BE A TEACHER! Does not deserve to be alive. Unprofessional. Spiteful. Fake. Badmouths collegues and students without prejudice. A shell of a person who has little teaching experience - and does not know how to teach. Save yourself!

Dr. Bensur is a very poor educator. She is unethical and unfair in her dealings with students. She lies, backstabs, and gossips about other professors and students and is extremely jealous and unstable. She lowers the quality of education at Millersville

Not fit to teach. Extremely unprofessional. Two-faced. A real disappointment to anyone who wants to contribute to their education.

besides being severely unhinged, Dr. Bensur is the most unprofessional teacher I have ever had. She has no consistency in grading, she's two faced, and generally rude to her students. Be sure you cover up your tattoo's or you'll never hear the end of it

absolutely, without a doubt the worst teacher I have ever had. She's two-faced, does not grade fairly, she's quirky, unprofessional, talks about her collegues behind their backs, and inevitably needs to be terminated from this University

Gossipy, rude, and downright unprofessional. She discriminates against those who don't fit her ideal. Lies, cheats, and acts like a victim to get her way. A disgrace to the teaching profession.

She gives you horrible grades, and then when you ask her to justify her reasons she babbles and can't give a good answer. Horrible for secondary edu seekers. Her class is a joke. Deans lists students wrote letters to the department to complain about her.

art teachers to be: BEWARE. I've been teaching secondary art ed for 4 years and can tell you that I don't send my students to MU for art ed based on my experience with this woman. Gossip and poor teaching are deteriorating MU's art ed rep!

Evil woman, she should not be teaching. Not easy to talk to, demeaning, and very negative vibe in the classroom. She will pick favorites, but many of the class drops out, or feels like crying afterward.I was very interested in jewelry design when I started,now she ruined that motivation.

She may give bad grades but whats worse is that she doesnt give any suggestions or evidence to back it up. Shes unclear in her expectations & is very condescending. Wastes class time too. I hated her class & Im probably going to fail b/c she is so damn confusing. Avoid this class, she is horrible!

This Prof. is off in lala land. Her lectures consist of babling about plasma screen Tv's and cell phones for 2 weeks staright this woman mentioned lectured about these two items now tell me what this has to do with art education. She grades unfairly. shes a complete psyco.

My God, she needs to be knocked off her high-horse. Absolutely HORRIBLE teacher.

She does not remember what she says. She has no criteria for grading, she is very subjective. She is very emotional and unprofessional as she becomes defensive if someone disagrees with her and personally attacks students calling them names and making rude inappropriate comments.

so, instead of a final (8AM might i add!) she was going to have us come to class, give us our final grade, give back ne projects she still had and our notebooks, and serve bagels and coffee...needless to say all we got was our notebooks and projects....no food, no final grade, just disappointment!

No method for grading whatsoever! Wouldnt know fair grading if it bit her in the butt! I would HIGHLY suggest taking another teacher if you want graded fairly! P.S. If you get stuck with her-suck up majorly and you might be okay.

This teacher does not know how to grade. She is completly unfair and does not justify her grades. She will tell you to do one thing and then when you turn in a project she will hate it when it was her suggestions used.

This professor doesn't not grade fairly. She grades based on if she likes the work. So, in this case I would say she picks favorites. If it is ugly you will get an A and if it is beautiful you will get a C. Don't spend time on the piece of work, because you will most likely get a bad grade on it.

Totally unprofessional. All complaints regarding favoritism, capricious grading, inconsistancy, disorganization, lack of content mastery, petty vindictiveness, paranoia, and unbalanced behavior/conduct MUST be well-founded based on the experience of this observer. A pathetic blight to her profession

horrible professor. doesn't tell you what the projects will be graded on until after u have 2 turn it in. can't back up why u received the grade that she gave u. seems like she pulls the grades out of a hat. she doesn't always put the correct grade in her gradebook, so watch out! avoid her if u can!

*WORSE TEACHER EVER* i dont understand how after all the complaints and everything else that students have submitted about this woman, how she is still holding a job at millersville!

I thought that the ed. system stressed the fact that you're NOT supposed to drag a student down w/ criticism but make them learn from it. It's pretty damn hypocritical of bensur to tell her students that they won't be good teachers after only a couple weeks & grading one lesson plan. She wants things done her way & she doesn't give a**** about you

May be nice as a person, but she's not college professor material. Flip flopped on requirements, forgot what she had requested of us, occasionally going ballistic over the smallest infraction. Spent the semester doing crafts, never really learning much about how to be a teacher. So many ArtEd students drop the Ed part after taking her class.

This class is extremely easy. Online tests and connect work account for much of the grade. As a teacher, she has little knowledge on the technology she uses and the lectures are pretty much useless, but mandatory. Textbook used heavily and is really the only way you learn anything at all.

Honestly, I want to feel bad for her but then she went & publicly humiliated and degraded me in front of my peers, so now I don't have any sympathy. She treats students like 2 year olds, goes off on long talks about life and other crap not relating to education at all. Very unorganized and let us out after only 15 minutes of class numerous times

just awful

Absolutely horrible prof. She will waste your time. Seriously, GET OUT WHILE YOU CAN. She's a failure at everything and will make you angry every day. She's the worst ever. Don't waste your time!! I would rather try to get an override for a related class or take the class on another campus than ever take her. Do whatever you can not to take her!!

Barbara Bensur was one of the worst, if not THE worst professors I've had at Millersville University so far. She is as unclear as possible, does not have a clue about how to teach a class, and grades are completely up to your knowledge of due dates or remembering to do them online. DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS WHATEVER YOU DO!! DOWNRIGHT TERRIBLE!!

where to start..WORST MU PROFESSOR. Has no idea what technology is or how to use it. Very irrational but the class is so easy. Took no effort whatsoever to pass. If you neea joke of a class for an easy grade take it. DONT BUY THE BOOK! CANT BE SOLD BACK AND IT'S EXPENSIVE!

Barbara is the worst professor to be imagined. She is confusing, both to her students and to herself. She contradicts herself all of the time. She is scatterbrained and sometimes is just very rude. I couldn't stand her as a professor. If there is anyway you don't have to take her, do it.

Bensur doesn't teach whatsoever. We watched like four movies during the semester. The tests are super hard and you have to be really fast and look up the answers or you'll fail. She was boring and had this condescending smile on her face all the time. She will fail you if don't show up to class a lot. The textbook is useless.

She is the worst professor ever. It's an easy A but she's completely unclear and her lectures have nothing to do with the exams. DO NOT BUY THE ACTUAL BOOK. It's expensive and you never use it. If you take art 100 just buy Connect and if you want the online book. Exams are all online. Easy A, terrible professor

All over the place. I only did well on the exams because I had art and culture with her previously. She's nice, but just not helpful.

Online assignments and tests were easy as long as you googled the answers and found them on quizlet. The final was based on nothing that we learned throughout the professor no matter how hard you study. Extremely boring lectures. Has good intentions but executes extremely badly.
