Lectures are unclear and often confusing. Also lectures often went on random tangents that had no clear relation to the material. Would not recommend this professor

Has a tendency to say one thing and do another. Rambles about topics.

Lectures are way long and not engaging. Changes assignments, quizzes, etc.

Makes up her own assignments on the spot. Doesn't engage the class in a meaningful way. Boring lectures that don't matter. Gets cranky easily and treats classes like 3 year olds

She is horribly confusing and you can't understand a sentence she says because it makes no sense to what you are learning. She is not helpful. NEVER TAKE HER CLASS.

She is not a great teacher by any means and she grades like youre in a Masters program. She re-does everything that is online and makes it the way she wants. Her lectures are confusing as well as her PPTs and then her worksheets dont match. She sometimes teaches things after you have already scrambled to find answers online and in the book.

I didn't like this class or the professor at all. She'll have a video, but will spend 10 minutes describing the video in detail before playing it. It's too repetitive. Plus this class is just a way to shove liberal ideas down your throat. Fairly easy class if you show up and agree or pretend to agree with her.

If you do not show up to this class, she will make it a priority for you not to pass. A heavy lecturer, however goes off topic a lot, and makes everything more confusing than it needs to be.

This professor SUCKS! The WORST professor I have ever taken at GCU. Definitely switch out of her class if you can. She does exams which are supposed to be quizzes on Halo that are 10 questions but she makes you take them in class, with like 50 questions and just open book. She makes this class way harder than it has to be, -1000000000/10 recommend.

Very kind lady. Should not be a professor... she does grade very easy, but lectures a majority of class and does change instructions/requirements on assignments, as a previous student stated. Feel like I learned nothing in either class I took with her. Covers everything once and expects us to absorb it. Very flexible on due dates and understanding.

she really does not make sense. lectures about things that really have nothing to do with upcoming assignments. get ready to speak out loud in class a lot.

Kind person, but not good professor. She does not cover material thats on the quiz in class, but talks about stuff that is irrelevant and somewhat related to the class topic as a whole. Expects us to solely get it from book. Went only for participation. Randomly gives group/individual presentations not part of the curriculum given. Do not take.

Don't take this class, whatever you do!! You get called on all the time, present all the time in class, and only have like 6 or 7 "assignments" to earn points. Meaning all of those are 90+ point assignments or quizzes... All points earned are from participation (aka attending class). Sounds easy, but you will not want to be there, trust me...

She has terrible teaching methods, never posts notes or resources on time. Her TA's do all of her work for her, yet she still complains about having to do a lot of work. She makes you do in class discussions, but nobody understands her questions, so you just sit there and talk about random stuff or don't talk at all.

This professor straight up sucks. Never taking this professor again. She will not accommodate you or help you at all. She makes the class unnecessarily hard by adding extra questions for quizzes and making participation hard. You have to be in class and her IA's will make you sign out of class and dock you participation if you leave early at all.

Her lectures are hard to pay attention to because she bounces all over the place. If you ask her a question she does not give a straight answer and will go on a rant for 40 min about something else. She brings Christianity into everything but then tells us we need to be culturally competent. Her class is hard to sit through.

Lectures were not very helpful for actually learning the content. A lot of class time was wasted, and she didn't prepare us well for exams. Instructions for papers were almost nonexistent, and she devoted no class time to going over her expectations for them. Essentially, I might as well have taken this class online.

This class is heavy lecture and she goes through the notes so fast and does not really connect anything together. Pretty much no body listened to her, everything she teaches could simply be read in the textbook or PowerPoints, she just reads off her PowerPoints with rambling. My biggest issue was how she forced her opinions on the class.

bad at lectures, talks to students in a patronizing way.

This professor cannot form a single coherent thought. She mumbles and stutters and is difficult to understand. She constantly changes grading criteria and goes on long tangents about different things. She only has macro experience but teaches micro focused classes and has no valuable insights. I learned nothing from her class.

lesson teaching could be a lot better, more discussion rather than learning, feels as if you're teaching yourself through the course

Doesn't lecture, just throws information at you.

I've only had this professor for 2 weeks now ( SWK355 & 460) but she's awful. She constantly degrades students if they don't answer a question correctly or EXACTLY how she wants it answered. She got into a 45 minute debate with a student about politics and lets politics guide her class, even if irrelevant. I dont think she knows anything about SWK.

i pay too much money for this to be the only professor available. she just rambles the first hour of class about nothing. we barely cover content because she rambles so much

I would never recommend this professor. She goes into class with no plan, I have been in her class for five weeks now and have not learned one new thing. She brings up politics all the time and does not teach based off of the christian worldview.Overall, I believe you could benefit from this class more if you take a different professor.

This is my least favorite professor. While she can be kind at times, she gives us an excessive amount of busy work and a 1-2 new paper handouts a class that have nothing to do with our assignments. She also takes the daily Bible verse out of context all the time. She lectures the whole time and calls on random people to ask them confusing questions

Genuinely makes an hour and 45 minutes feel like 4 hours. Class is super easy but she makes it so much worse than it needs to be. She's the only SOC professor that does paper quizzes rather than online and they are more questions than other professors. SUPER SLOW GRADER. Just take the course online tbh.

I can feel myself throwing away money sitting here. no reason to talk about the same three things for an hour 45 especially when it is just rambling and all over the place. would not recommend you take her class, not like she's rude just shouldn't be teaching probably

No sense of urgency with regards to lessons, assignments or grading timeline. Drones on endlessly and says nothing meaningful. Doesn't command the attention of the room. Speaks to students as if we are elementary students. Wasted class time on fruitless tangents and activities when we had looming quizzes and deadlines.

Waste of time she teaches the class like its a 3rd grad class. No need of coming to class but then you won't get participation points. Do not take her class. Another thing she doesn't grade anything for months. Its December and hw from October isn't even graded

She teaches the class like its elementary, so slow and talks to students like there 10. Doesn't grade anything, it's December & there are assignments still not in from October and she told us they wont be in till xmas and theres 2 TA's. No point of coming to class pretty common sense, but you wont get participation points.

Didn't ever really fully explain anything. Classmates and I always felt confused and felt as we didn't learn anything, and had to teach ourselves. Also takes months to grade assignments.

sucked didn't grade assignments until almost Christmas

She took forever to grade assignments or quizzes she had us take. Rather than taking one of the quizzes we were assigned a group project that did not much make sense and took her 2 and 1/2 months to grade. It is currently December as I am writing this and we have quizzes and papers that are not graded from early October. DO NOT TAKE HER!!!

The professor creates a poor learning environment. I didn't learn anything and it didn't seem she knew what she was talking about. She talked down to students and made students feel bad. Never graded anything and went into final with no idea of class grade. Did 3 or 4 assignments that she made points worth nothing in grades after the due date.

Late grader, political, never posted slides or graded assignments, ignored message when my friend died but uses the excuse of having a lot on her plate when we would ask why she hadn't graded things from months prior, treats you like a preschooler, unorganized, makes soc an inconvenience when sociology is not a class you should have to worry about.

This professor is not flexible at all, very bad with communication, did not get an IA until a few weeks left in the semester, always showed up late, no sense of urgency, when she actually had an IA, they would always be the one to responds, too ages to get a hold of her via message, never respected accommodations, and talks to us like we are kids.

It took forever for her to get through lectures, it took her 2 classes to talk about the syllabus. The class was overall easy, but it was boring to be in her class and many of our quizzes were open note, open book, everything. She also didn't use a lockdown browser so some just googled the answers. The papers were not difficult just time consuming.

This class is unorganized and stressful to take, I feel sometimes she doesn't know what she is talking about and I would find myself not knowing what is going on in class. She is nice and her assignments are easy. But learning in this class is a struggle but I was able to manage not too sure for other people.

The class name should be switched from "Principles of Sociology" to Mrs. Richardson's political opinion. She gives extremely biased lectures in order to support her opinion and uses the Bible out of context. This is the worst teacher that I've had. She talks down to everyone like they are children and makes class take way longer than it needs to.
