One of those teachers that you wonder why they are teaching. He seems much more concerned with how many A's B's and C's he's giving. On the test essays he will take away enough points to ensure many people don't recieve an A.

Very non-professional. His tests are extremely hard and he does not offer any information that would help a student in any way. He has you, take a test to see if on-line classes are right for you. Clearly, he has not taken the test for instructors!

He is very boring and makes the entire class seem like torture. His personal ticks are also very distracting.

Oh....my....gosh. Could not stand this class! Had to retake it and took my D to an A with a different teacher. He stutters, and flutters his eyes. He rambles on and ON about stuff not remotely related to the material tested over. Grades HARD. I'm an A student who got a D. Do not recommend!

This guy sux! Very hard and his lectures will put you to sleep. He can't say 1 sentence without stuttering at least 10 times. You can't skip class either because he will drop you. Tests are very hard and don't even cover what he goes over in class. I wouldn't take this guy even if its ur last option

Will make comments such as,"Twain WAS the greatest post-civil war writer - there will be no discussion on that",and then rant at students for not "participating" in class discussion. Rambling lectures that jump around nonsensically.Tests contain enough nit-picky,MINOR details to prevent A's.Grumpy.

BORING! He does look over the class when he talks and he stares out the window a lot to. Is he even teaching. Lawhon is awesome

I think he made up half the questions on his tests and WHO gves a 50 point essay question for the first test and gives 5 different ? for "one" essay questions???

to put it mildly the guy is a jerk. i took Lyde and got a B both times and i had to drop this fool because I was failing. stay away from this jerk!

This teacher is no bueno. He repeats himself constantly, the same 4 word sentence and it doesn't make any sense. but he repeats it over and over. His notes are not structured. He doesn't speak intelligently at all, and I was constantly lost during class. Everyone was.

I signed up for an online course he teaches and immediately regretted it. He refuses to reveal how he will give the 3 tests because he "still hasn't decided." His instructions and responses are very vague. The replies that he's given me via email show just how unwilling he is to help his own students succeed.

I am taking his online history course and it is pretty bad. He doesn't seem to care about his students, he basically sets us up for failure. He tells us to study one thing, and tests/quizzes over something different. You can't get an A in this class, so you might as well not even try.

I'm taking is 8:30am class and it is terribly boring!! Everybody is asleep all class a

I'm taking is 8:30am class and it is terribly boring!! Everybody is asleep all class and he basically talks to himself. Hardly anything he says is on the test if you take this class READ THE TEXTBOOK AND IGNORE EVERYTHING HE SAYS IN CLASS. the only up side is there are only 3 test and a few quizzes but good luck trying to pay attention in there!!!!

i am taking his 830 class and if you need a class to put you to sleep, this is the one. its more exciting to watch paint dry then to listen to him. he gets off topic really easy, is really soft spoken. his test ask questions that you havent covered yet. im going to fail his class and have to retake it. i DO NOT recommond him at all.

He is a horrable teacher who dosnt care about his students. he gives 3test and 3quizes who are your only grades...he is rude ans sassy. the test cover atleast 6 chapters which are impossble to remamber and he dosnt have ANY review! he is such a bad teacher, he definalty needs to be fired. and i tried so hard in that class, yet still mae a low C.

I'm taking his on-line class & wanted to meet with him. He sent me an email letting me know he does not meet with on-line students. Asked for a review on his 9 chapters for his test, he told me to go on line and read. He seemed upset when I went to his office unannouced and askedg him for help. SAVE YOURSELF DON'T TAKE HIM!!

i was interested in history before i took his class, but after lecture with him in the mornings, i hated it. EVERYONE falls asleep and he is a disgrace as a teacher. He isnt clear and expects you to remember 9 chapters for all 3 test without a review. dont take him because he will mess up your GPA. SAVE YOUR SELF!

I TOOK THIS TEACHER ONLINE AND HAD TO DROP HIS CLASS. HE IS NOT HELPFUL AND MAKES HIS CLASS EXTREMELY HARD. WHEN EXPECTS YOU TO REMEMBER 8+ CHAPTERS PLUS HIS LECTURES FOR QUIZ/TEST. I WILL BE TAKING THIS CLASS AGAIN BUT WITH A DIFFERENT HISTORY TEACHER. DO NOT TAKE HIM.

This professor does not help at all. Doesn't give reviews, lectures do not go along with tests, extremely boring and studders way too much. READ THE BOOK. Focus on key points. Ignore everything he says because it isn't helpful on tests. He's a smart alec and shows it to everyone. Take a different professor if the option is there!!!!

Lectures are unorganized. Exams are over 5-6 chapters, which are not all discussed in lecture, with only 15 multiple choice questions.

He was the worst teacher! None of what his lecture was about was on the test, if you have to take him don't listen to what he's saying, just read the book.

He is very unclear in his lectures. Gets off topic for everything and he isn't concerned about his students. He will talk for the entire hour and 25 minutes. Doesn't ask if you have any questions. His test are nothing compared to his lectures. Puts a picture of a map up but tests have no maps? very difficult.

The professor drones on about things not related to the test. Gives tests over several chapters but only covers one in class. Constantly repeats himself and the information presented is unclear both in significance and actual historical accuracy. Does not take questions, if questions are forced he won't answer them. Will occasionally be derogatory.

I had to leave five minutes early so I could get to my next class because it was across campus, and he threatened to kick me out of his class. He is very sassy. Don't ask questions. Bring your textbook and read it in class.

WORST TEACHER FOR NIGHT CLASSES! You will never know which chapter you are on, he likes the sound of his voice. Don't ask questions because he will look at you like "how dare you stop me to ask a question"! He is just awful, he may know a lot about history but he acts of if some of it is not true. And put too much of his opinion in it. Repeats alot

Horrible educator. Taking an online course and it is strictly from book with absolutely no notes given to guide students. Exam questions are made of passing details you will not notice in this very dry textbook. Instructions for the online exams include not books, notes etc; ignore these instructions if you want to pass.

He is so boring and will talk for the whole class time. Everyone falls asleep in his class.

Not a good professor at all. Did not have clear responses when emailed. Little to no help was given by him. He did not give clear instructions on an assignment, which caused me to fail the class. Will not meet up with students.

taking online class for sum2 its week 3 and he still hasn't messaged me back form the day before class. Someone defined him about not being a bad teacher and kids just want a free ride... f that i am a music edu maj, some of the most anal people are music snobs. this guy out shines my music hist teacher. SJC needs to fix this problem teacher!

If you can't make it to class on time don't even bother showing up or taking his course. He will make a huge deal about it. Have to use the bathroom or leave the room for a minute? - DONT BOTHER. He will call you out on it and make a huge deal. He lectures the whole class time and goes over and will not let you leave! AWFUL "teacher"

He honestly kinda terrified me? I took him at 8am and he put me to sleep. I'm sure if you like history it can't be that bad but for me a piece of paper was more interesting. He doesn't tolerate any fooling around and yelled at someone for asking about a Scantron. The test reviews were accurate and there's not a lot of grades.

This professor is ok I guess, Even if you read the chapters and study the test are still hard. The question on test are worded differently. He doesn't give you a 2nd attempt on ANY assignments like the other teachers do. He is a tough grader. Unfortunately for me I had no choice but to take him he was the only class left open. Good Luck

This professor is very strict. He doesn't allow leaving the lecture hall during his lecture, unless you are leaving the class. He seems to get extremely frustrated when his lecture is interrupted by a question from one of his students and gives very short, harsh answers. There is no discussion or participation in class.

He's not intimidating, he's just a jerk. DO NOT take Professor Law. He gives his students no respect at all and doesn't care if they succeed.

I took his class for 1301 & 1302 with an A in the 1st one & would have had an A in the 2nd but I messed up dates for a paper( Im human!). I reached out nicely about it and he was EXTREMELY rude and gave me a 0. I have immune issues w/seizures recently so thats been a lot to handle. Qs/Ts are over passing details. DBs are full essay length.

I hated how he taught. Due to covid, we used zoom and he never has the chat or talking button on. It was impossible to ask questions during lectures. The test is worth 70% so if you failed then you are done. When I asked for extra credit, I received a rude comment back. Only test and quizzes are graded. I won't waste my money on him, he don't care.

He clearly couldn't care less whether you are successful in his class or not. How this man has ever gotten a decent review, i do not know. His review outlines for tests are ridiculously broad, he basically just asks you to memorize "anything of importance" in the textbook. If you have a question he will either respond rudely or in an unhelpful way.

This is the worst professor I have ever had. His lectures are horrible! He does not present with powerpoint, photos, or makes notes of any important information. He does not give you any assignments, only quizzes (2-3) and exams (2-3) ! therefore, you have to get a perfect score in every exam & quiz to pass the class.

He doesnt do anything but lecture.

Kinda mean. Very rude and sarcastic. Only lectures off top of his head and theyre very boring. Couldnt change this class cause im in dual credit but if i could i would do it in an instant. Never struggled like this in a history class.

The lectures are incredibly dull and it takes forever for Professor Law to get through a sentence. His teaching style mainly consists of standing and seemly freestyling lessons in a way that no one understands and that people don't care enough about to pay attention to.

DO NOT take this class, he gives out a total of only 6 grades. He is so unprofessional, he may have a phD but he never learned the fact that to get respect you have to give respect. During the first exam he NEVER showed up to class and said that anyone who didn't take it didn't follow instructions. He will get pissy if you try to use the restroom

Professor Law was very tough he won't answer any questions, you can have your hand up for a long time and he will ignore you, he does not let you use the restroom and takes very long to reply to emails

As someone who loves history, I was very disappointed in taking Ronnie Law. Class barely speaks and he will lecture and lecture all day while showing still pictures, though sometimes he may put on a video. You are graded on very few things with 70% of your grade being based on exams. Avoid like the plague if you are a lousy test taker.

Talks really slowly. Stutters and repeats a lot of things. Tries to elaborate about a topic but always ends up repeating what he was trying to say in the first place saying a lot of unnecessary information. Doesn't let you go in the bathroom. Honestly a self-study class. Very passive-aggressive. All his lectures seem to be freestyle.
