Awesome teacher! His class is hard but if you take notes during class and study the text its fine. He gives you plenty of time between tests so you have 2-3 weeks to read 1-2 20 page chapters. I had some medical issues and he was way understanding.

Funny lectures, positive attitude, easy note taking. Great class with and awesome instructor.

Great teacher. Has extensive and comprehensive lectures, which are all on ANGEL. Answers ALL questions. Is available when needed and has a great sense of humor. Tests ARE a little hard though.

Excellent class! Learned a lot about the world...fun in-class discussions!!!

Taken 230 and 101 from McCormick. if you have no interest in geog you probably will not like him. very minimal homework, relatively easy tests, awesome class discussions, great personal experiences. if you take the time to go to his office hours he WILL help you.

I really liked that class. It was not difficult and Mr McCormick was clear on his expectations. Textbook use was mandatory to pass quizzes and tests, but as long as I was familiar with informations from book I did well. I also liked that he was very friendly to students.

I took DR. McCormick's class last year & he is probably the smartest guy in Spokane ever since I left!

Dr Mac is an exellent teacher. Very nice and willing to help. I started class 2 weeks late and skipped atleast once a week because it was a morning class and I had the winter blues. I still finished with a 4.0. He will emphasize the key points. If you miss a day grab notes from a trustworthy peer. Favorite Teacher and most fun class I've had.

Great guy but scattered teaching. Very little homework, mostly quizzes and tests. If you study the study guide, class notes, and read the chapter you will do fine on the test, but if you don't then it will be hard. Most people had a hard time getting a 4.0 but if you study it's not impossible. Smart and funny guy, easy to talk to.

Awesome class and awesome teacher!

Very interesting class. His tests and quizzes are impossible to study for. He's not very clear on what exactly you need to study but gives you the chapter or topic and you're suppose to know it all. The tests are much harder than what he teaches. You need to pay good attention in class in order to do good on quizzes. I had a hard time in this class

He is a very passionate and creative professor. Probably one of the most knowledgable I've had. The lectures can be a bit scattered. But I got a lot out of it. I also recommend his World Regional Geog course.

Dr. McCormick was a great teacher, very funny and very helpful! The class topics were interesting, though it wasn't what I had expected. I recommend taking this class!

While he may be a bit scatterbrained at times, he's a VERY helpful teacher, and he'll do his best to explain something to you that you don't understand.

I'm not gonna lie, the class was a bit difficult, but I came to him and asked if there was something I could do to help my grade and he gave me quite a few options, which was very nice, but you defiantly need to work for what you want, it isn't a class you can slide though because he actually wants you to work, so actually do the work.

Taken all three of Dr. McCormick's classes and I wish he had more. While Dr. Mac has a bad rep for extremely tough courses he just expects you know the material. As far as test go, he wants you to be able to put your learned knowledge into real world practice...

I really enjoyed his class. As a whole, we all had a great time. If I could I would take another class from him.

He is a great teacher, but you must do preview before each lecture, and starting doing each assignment ahead of time, also remember to review and memorize some important terms, (because he will put that on the quizzes). I love all his classes and will definitely take his world geography again in the falls

Very fun, high-energy teacher. Very knowledgeable in his field and loves to engage with his students. The only PhD I've ever met that wants everyone to have fun in his class. Bear in mind, if you don't pay attention in class, reading the text won't save you. So do you work and take good notes and you're set for an exciting quarter with Doc Mac!

Awesome informative funny great professor Highly recommended

Awesome professor! You can sometimes tell it's him from far away based on his colorful Hawaiian shirts he wears sometimes. Knows his stuff pretty well and does an excellent job of teaching.

I loved my class with Dr. Mac, it is a little tough, but pay attention and do your work and you will do fine. Plus, there's no textbook so it will save you a few bucks.

A very tough class for those of you who are behind on math like myself ( I haven't taken a math class in 6 years). Tests are hard but lots of easier work in between. Dr. Mac is eager to help and truly wants you to succeed, his enthusiasm for his profession shows. Show up and work hard and he will help you do well

Dr. Mac is awesome! He loves what he does, which makes the class enjoyable compared to some teachers who you feel like they hate what they do. The class is tough, but work hard and ask questions and he will help you. He wants his students to succeed!

He is a great professor. He posts study aids and Powerpoint slides online, so you can review them if you get struck with homework. The homework/daily works are usually easy, it should take you 15 minutes to complete. However, the exams/quizzes are kinda difficult. If you keep up hard work, you should do fine.

Dr. Mac is one of the best teachers I've ever had! He is hilarious, and he loves what he is doing. The homework he gives is medium hard (the daily worksheets are not hard at all), and he is always willing to help you! His map quizzes are interesting and not hard, but the exams are. You won't have issues if you pay attention in class and take notes.

Visit him in office hours, he will help you cover main topics. He is pretty lecture heavy and a tough grader.

Guys! i love this prof. he is so funny and amazing. His class is just really hard is your dont study for the exams. Thats what really brought me down. He has like 3 exams throughout the entire course (maybe more). Assignment he usually gives out on fridays. Anyway, he is a really col pro. even if i barely passed. Just study people.

I took Geography 101 with Cameron McCormick. He is one of my favorite professors at SFCC. He makes class fun and interesting. Have a question in class? Easy to ask and get positive feedback.

I LOVE Dr Mac! He is by far the best professor Ive had. His class is easy.. JUST SHOW UP! Hes beyond helpful if you have questions.. JUST ASK! He does do homework and tests frequently but they help you learn. Im taking another class from him next fall. He definitely makes learning fun!

I was scared to take this class because of the other reviews, but Dr. Mac is a very funny & nice guy. He tries to make class fun & He will answer any question you have and explain it well. Homework can be broad but for the most part its not hard to figure out. Only reason you wouldnt do good in this class is if you arent putting in the effort.

I really enjoyed this class, mainly because of the instructor. Every week he held Zoom meetings, and was a fun guy to listen to. The work load for this course isn't too bad, but that's only because of how simple Dr. Mac makes it. It's a fun class, and you'll learn allot of new things.

I learned so much I didn't know that I didn't know. He made geography interesting, and I learned that it's so much more than names of places on a map! I wish I had room in my schedule to take more classes from him!

He's great! He works hard to make the class interesting and relevant. It's a hard class, so I think that's why some students give him bad ratings. He is really knowledgeable and connects geography to more than just information about names of places and locations!

I loved the instructor! He knows his stuff and is really enthusiastic about what he teaches. Geography is much more than just names of countries and places on a map, and that really comes through in the class! The content was interesting, but it's a hard class, so be prepared to put in the effort if you want a good grade.

I know this is a required class for many, but please, PLEASE beware of this course. Like others have said there was an insane amount of work per week, and I consider myself a hardworking student but this class alone caused several breakdowns. He seems like a good guy, but the workload and difficulty are absolutely mind-boggling for an intro class.

Great class and professor! Do the assignments, take notes on the lectures (very important!!!), and you'll be fine. Tiny exams and usually 5 assignments per week. Textbook is free but rarely used. There were times when the homework was confusing, but he was easy to get ahold of by email. Great class for understanding the modern world!

Im surprised seeing Prof. McCormick being 3/5 because I have really liked his class. The discussions are very interesting and homework isn't insane. He's generous with giving time and not removing points for late submissions, he's there to help with any questions you have. If I have the chance I would take a class from him again. Highly recommended

Dr. Mac's dedication to his craft is refreshing and inspiring. The homework load is reasonable. I enjoyed his ability to connect course material to our local area. Tying in community aspects enhanced my educational experience, making it more meaningful and enriching.

Dr. Mac is one of the more impressive professors I have had to pleasure to learn from. The amount of passion he puts into his syllabus is above and beyond what I have experienced with other professors thus far. This is a class you will appreciate for more than the credits and I highly recommend taking this course. Thanks Dr. Mac!

I had a wonderful time in Cameron's class. His tests particularly the final exam is tough if you don't know geography. Great teacher! If you use his office hours that can help you a lot. Work with him that's what I recommend.

Great Professor, Attendance was not mandatory because he recorded his lectures so you could watch them later. Homework was easy and he explains everything super great.

Dr. Mac is very understanding, funny, and easy to reach via email. I loved the content of his class, but just soooo much homework, Easily 7 things a week, with optional 40-60 min zoom lectures mon-thurs Doing live helped me learn more than a recording, and he's really passionate about what he teaches. Would give a lower difficulty if less homework

Prof. McCormick knows his material inside and out, making comprehension of the subject material a very streamlined process. He is fair in grading and gives feedback not just for correction but to adjust or expand your knowledge. The homework/project formats are engaging and interactive, as well as allowing for creative and intellectual tangents.
