I was very happy to be a part of this class. I learned a lot from my professor. He made the class very enjoyable and he seemed very genuine about helping us out. I am very grateful.
This professor is really informative when it comes to talking about colleges and how they work. He gave good examples of how to be good with money which is really useful when it's time to go to college.
With the few college professors I have had as a high school student, Professor Coney has definitely been a favorite. He is extremely down to earth, and individually connects to students personally, creating an amazing and comfortable environment to be in. He taught me so much about life. I would love to have him again as a professor. Thank you!
This professor is truly great at what he does. Ive had other professors from colleges, but Professor Coney was not your average professor. He is inspirational, hilarious and always gave great lectures. He doesn't just teach students how to do things, he gives advice and shows you step by step. He motivated me and helped me be prepared college.
My first professor I ever took in college and turned out to be a great one. He knows his material really good and really knows what to say.
Professor Coney knows what he wants to talk about with the class. He taught career planning and helped me prepare myself in entering the major. He goes into detail what is required to transfer to colleges, and helped with discovering more of my major. The class didn't get books but he managed to teach us w/out books

Hes very inspirational when it comes to believing that we're all very smart and that we're capable of achieving success in life.
He was very inspiring and made the students feel that we're all capable of achieving success.
Professor Coney is a very fun and smart professor. You will learn many things in his class regarding college and the steps you need to take to get there. Overall the class was really fun and i would take it again.
Professor Coney helped me understand more about my career and what I needed to do in order to succeed in it, he helped me organize better pathways for my major and how to achieve it.
This professor was very fun and helpful!!!
My professor was great. He was funny and gave great information at the same time. He gives great feed back and alot of information to help you chose your dream career. Because of this he has helped me chose a dream job. This is why I rate him 5 out of 5.
I honestly took this class because I thought it would be an easy A and easy credits but after finishing the course, I realized this was a big mistake. It was going great in the beginning then the organization of the class just disappeared. Near the end of the semester, like two weeks before finals, he dropped three assignments worth 400 points.
In Professor Coney's Counseling 20 class, you will be tasked with many projects, assignments, and assessments intended to help you discover a major and transfer institution you like. Although he is a harsh grader who is nitpicks, assignments about discover your passions more importantly yourself harshly. He also has tendency to digress in lectures.
Loved Coney! However, if you're not on top of the work, prepare yourself. Though not a lot of hard assignments, definitely give yourself time to thoroughly handle each. Very understanding professor. My first sem was a pleasure.
Counseling 20 class was taken mainly for credits, but was super helpful. Although Dr. Coney does assign too many assignments, they are all relatively simple tasks and arent very time consuming. Being on time on top of your tasks and not procrastinating will help in being successful. VERY generous when it comes to extra credit and late work.
Dr. Coney is very understandable, and when its time to do in assignment he is very specific on what we have to do.
Dr. Coney is a really good profesor. He helps you academically and personally. The assignments he assigns are easy but you should not leave them until last minute. I enjoyed the guest speakers that he brought in and talked to us about their experiences.
great class. great professor. strongly recommend
Very Talkative overall needs to do better
Dr. C is an amazing professor and counselor! He is very caring and determined to help his students. The workload is pretty standard but the assignments are very helpful and meaningful. He makes the learning space comfortable and positive while enhancing our knowledge.
Dr .Coney is very helpful and inspiring he truly cares about the students When it comes to assignments some might be tedious or might be time consuming but they help.I learned so much about myself and my career thanks to his assignments I would take his class again and again.
For me, he was a decent professor. He does expect you to try your best. I like how he brought speakers in the class which helped us better understand careers. Towards the end, there was multiple major assignments that took a lot of work and time to complete especially since I was a full time student which was overwhelming.
Great professor because he gives you want you need to get done and to understand for your future. He gets speakers to talk about their college life, for us to understand how things aren't easy but possible.
Such an amazing professor! He created a friendly environment and the assignments were easy. Professor Coney is such a cool man and offers plenty of help if you need it.
I absolutely loved this class because it gave me consistent opportunities to talk to and hear about the experiences of people in my desired field of study and career. The class itself is not difficult at all, as long as you do your work, you can be sure that you will have an A. I would recommend this class to anyone who asks. Coney is the best (:
professor coney was one of the best professors i've had. Pretty chill and is very understanding if you ever miss a class, or have a missing assignment. His class is online now due to the pandemic, so class has been kind of difficult. He does however go past the scheduled time class ends, so i suggest having his class as your last class of the day.
stay on top but he will have your back when it comes down to it
Dr. Coney is very accessible outside of class and responds quickly to any questions you may have. His class is fun and he has a great personality , easy to talk to and understanding. His assignments throughout the semester help a lot in your overall career path.
This class has been an exploration of my deepest desires for my career. We were shown a website so that we can search different professions. I was introduced to speakers via Ted talk, and actual live zoom meetings with professionals in many of the fields we are seeking. Dr. Coney is a great Professor with the students best interest in mind.
Amazing professor I would love to be his student again.
As long as you come to class you wiil be great. I like how Dr. Coney actaully listened to what we wanted to get done with our life
Dr. Coney provides a very comfortable learning environment, class is always interesting. The class was introduced to live zoom meetings with professionals in our fields of interest. Overall, he was able to help us explore career options and now I don't feel as lost with my career path.
Dr. Coney provides students with everything they need to actually succeed outside of school. This class requires a lot of self-exploration and insight. Dr. Coney makes you feel like your talking to a friend, but when it comes to doing your work, he's serious. Don't take this class if you think you can pass without doing anything.
Dr. Coney is a very "tough love" kind of professor, and he definitely wants each and every one of his students to get the most out of his class as they possibly can. In order to receive a good grade, you have to put the necessary work in. He is very clear with what he expects from his students, and very easy to get a hold of for questions.
Professor Coney is the type of professor who does not beat around the bush, he is very straight forward. He truly does put in a lot of effort into his class to make sure his students actually get something out of it.
Good class and professor. Dr. Coney Consel20 class is a class i would recommend.
By far the best professor I have ever had. Dr. Coney is a very chill guy, he cares for his students and always looks out for them. His lectures are always informative and I really took a lot from being in his class. 100% recommend taking his class!

The class was difficult as far as the work load but very engaging.
Honestly, wasn't the most easy student to handle but you can tell he always have your best interest and makes you want to work.
Dr. Coney is a wise professor that cares for his students. Just come to class and listen and go home and do your work he doesn't ode with work he just gives what he needs to give. I have never met a person with so many connections ,he's connected with wifi.
Dr. Coney is phenomenal. He has not only been an amazing Professor, he also is a great mentor to all of his students. He has talked me off of the ledge many times. His class was very informative and also taught me things to carry into my future career and endeavors. Take him, you will thrive!
One of the best teachers at Valley, his lectures where always very informative. He was very motivational and encouraging. Counseling 20 is an amazing class to take when you first start college and are confused about what you might want to pursuit. This class was very beneficial to my academic life.
Great professor, gives you more of an insight on life from a different perspective. Makes sure that you are learning the material for not only his course but your other classes as well and gives you as many Resources you need to succeed
He's a humble straightforward professor and will try his best to find where is your is mind at and teach you how to master it with simple skills that are would really help you in the long run.
This professor engages greatly as long as you participate. Informs ready information. Clearly is proud and acknowledges his students and their accomplishments
all you gotta do to pass the class is to just do your work.
This class is not too challenging. What you put in, is what you get out. Dr. Coney has really shown me tough love. Didn't sugar coat anything with me. For him I am grateful. He has helped me grow as an individual. Take advantage of office hours. He wants to see all his students succeed. Thank you Dr. Coney you are appreciated.

Great professor and down to earth !
This professor is amazing. This year's course was thrown off by his personal matters. It didn't feel like I completed this class (as far as school content is concerned). But he is a great professor who adequately wants to challenge and help his students in and out of the classroom.
Good class experience
Dr. Coney is a great professor and cares real deeply about his students. He shows that he really cares for his students and goes out his way to help them achieve their goals.
Teacher has been an incredible mentor, delivering not just lessons but life wisdom. Inspirational lectures have fueled personal growth, breaking me out of my shell. They've guided me toward becoming the ultimate college student, and as I conclude the class, I carry more wisdom than when I first entered. Grateful for the transformative experience.
very good professed , gets straight to the point . very consistent with keeping us on task and very interested in the class

He will help you navigate through your education goals and guide you through whatever it is you need help with. He is very considerate when it comes to personal matters and can accommodate based on ones needs
Can help with whatever, always accessible to help so feel free to reach out.
I love how Dr Coney is someone you can talk to when figuring out a career path and really brings that to life bringing in guest to our class to be more in depth of their career and I would love to take this class again it if I had the chance
Dr. Coney did an amazing job providing extra insight for students, since he would have guests come into class and talk about their profession. Advice was given, along with the steps they took in order to be successful. If you're a student who is still undecided, this course still helps you since you'll be doing a lot of exploring.
Dr. Coney is honestly a really good professor recommend his counseling 020 class to incoming college students. He really does care for his student and wants them to succeed and be well knowledge within your major and school programs/benefits to take advantage of. Assignments aren't bad very easy doesn't but does assign group projects.
Get the work done and You Will be good
I like how inspirational the professor is, he is really good at motivating you and helping you get out your comfort zone. I feel like he can do better on being flexible with his grading criteria. overall Dr.Coney is a good teacher.
Dr. Elliott Coney is an incredible counselor, professor, and listener. He provides a clear and effective teaching style that has been crafted over the years to cater to his students and their success. He's easy to work with, understanding, and extremely knowledgeable. Get the work done and this class will be loads of fun.
Dr. Coney is a great professor and also as a great person he looks out for people especially in the Umoja building and builds a strong connection with people he makes them laugh and just bring a lot of positive vibes .
Taking this class was very helpful in not only my academic life but my social life as well. Take away all the lectures and assignments and only take account for just being in class, you'll learn a lot about how to be successful during your defining decade. A class I recommend all students to take.
He was a professor that cared about people's futures and helping them see their goals and figure out how to get there. He was awesome and an understanding guy.
The class is inspirational; you will learn something by the end of the semester! A mix of educational and career learning, but you will also learn about yourself and will gain useful life skills and advice. The class is very end-of-the-semester heavy, as most of the major assignments worth a lot of points are due towards the end of the semester.
Highly sugges
Super chill professor as long as you do the assignments you will you should be successful
Dr. Coney is a great professor and this course was very inspirational! He is able to relate to the students and shares stories of his own to further motivate the class and prove his points. There are many useful resources available on canvas modules so take advantage! The assignments are not hard but the major assignments will be time consuming.
Attendance matters, you are graded for your participation. The professor very passionate about what he does. Class is very resourceful.
I thought Dr.Coney gave great lectures, and he definitely inspired me to be and want better for myself. That being said, I think the workload for his class is not it. It was okay at the beginning but by finals we had multiple big assignments do in the same week. We did a lot of discussion which were fine, but he did grade the discussions harshly.
amazing professor
I want other students to know that Coney makes you want to show up even when life's hard. Ears are always open no matter what's going on in his life out of work. I thank you for all the wonderful inspirational messages that were given out.
Honestly he was one of my best teachers I had this year he actually trying to better every kid he come in contact with then the stuff we learned in this class from showing up to speaking in front of people an more then he brought the top of the top in careers we all wanted to be in so yes if I can have him for another teacher an class I would
The course was very online-driven, and lecture heavy. As a class we've got to meet many important leaders from all walks of life. Dr.Coney is respected as a professor, and a great pleasure to have at LAVC. COUNSEL 020 for students instills preparation for the future for educators with a driven-goal.
This class was an amazing experience. Its one of the best classes you could take for career preparedness and self-discovery. Dr. Coney is a great lecturer and teaches through his own experiences and his earned wisdom. He is understanding and compassionate. His learning material is full of powerful concepts and insights that can transform your life.
Dr. Coney also shows that he truly cares about his students and their future. He encourages students to think about their goals, plan ahead, and believe in themselves. Overall, Dr. Coney is a caring professor who explains the material clearly and wants his students to succeed in school and in life.
Was a good professor but does give hefty assignments
For my first time coming back to LAVC he was a lenient professor and very cool. In this class I learned a lot of great things that honestly didn't think I would need for the outside world. Easy class do your work, he's very chill on late homework but definitely recommend anyone that is needing this class.
Dr. Coney does care about his students. Food was tight at my house and Dr. Coney sometimes provided with for us along with lectures. His lectures were actually very useful for our day to day life. Dr. Coney is not like any counseling class out there. He gives real advice!! 5 stars.
Great dude, cares a lot about his students and will work with you when falling behind or if you have some life stuff going on. Dr. Coney is a stand up citizen and a fantastic professor.
