I usually don't participate, but Sean encourages it and makes it easy to do. Very recommendable if you want to actually learn about marketing.

Prof Gallagher is very well informed, which makes his discussion-based class less boring. His way of teaching forces you to learn through the textbook & take notes cuz thats the only way youll do well in the 5 quizzes (30%) and cumulative final (25%). Attendanceicipation is worth 20% and the rest goes towards the Marketplace Simulation game.

He required a lot of participation, and to do well on the quizzes/exam you need to understand the textbook very well. However, he was very approachable, easily accessible outside of class, and always took the time to address any questions we had.

He's a top-notch discussion facilitator and genuinely cares about students' learning. Extremely knowledgeable and shows great enthusiasm for the material. Reasonable workload: 4 written assignments, 1 final project and discussion prep. I don't normally enjoy participation-heavy courses, but I found his to be a uniquely positive experience.

Great professor that really values class discussion. Take him if you can, he wants to see everyone succeed!

I had Sean last semester for introduction to marketing. Going into the semester, naturally, I searched him on rate my professor and saw some really horrible ratings. I am no genius so i was worried when I got him. With the semester done and my grade an A, I PROMISE his class will become one of your favorites, and the man won't fail you.

I had the pleasure of having Sean for two semesters. He was an amazing prof! Participation is crucial in order to get an A and he can be a tough grader at times. But with that said he makes the classes fun and he's very knowledgeable in his field. He's always around to meet outside of class and I highly recommend meeting him to pick his brain!

I had Sean for my Introduction to Marketing class during the summer of 2020, and he soon became one of my favorite professors during my time in NEU. I never got bored with his deliverables and personal anecdotes. He did an excellent job connecting the course materials with real-life examples. I highly recommend him to everyone!

Professor Sean Gallagher's classes were the highpoint of my week. It is a discussion-based platform making class fly by and actually enjoyable while learning. Homework reading was turnkey and was not burdensome at all. It is not often you get a professor who is so willing to help. I've never had a kinder professor in my life. My favorite class 100%

Professor Gallagher's class is certainly unique. He's big on participation and will cold call people throughout class. As long as you do the reading and offer one comment per class, the experience will not be difficult. Don't think it'll be easy to hide in the background as almost everyone speaks during class.

He's a very nice guy. If you do the assignments, which can be tedious but are manageable, you will most likely get an A. He definitely cares about his students and wants them to succeed. I would highly recommend him.

Sean is very sweet and encourages class participation a lot. His lectures can get slightly dragged but if you read the assigned text for the day and make a comment in class, you're good to go. The marketing simulation is not too bad if everyone in the group participates and the quizzes are hard but he curves generously.

ADORE HIM! Such a kind soul, his exams can be challenging but he curves generously. Always willing to help and makes class so fun and engaging. Make sure to participate!!

It's a tough class no doubt but Sean makes it a bit easier. It is heavy on theory and you would need to memorize quite a bit. There's a marketplace simulation to help apply the concepts discussed in class which is fun. The grading system was different as compared to other classes. A lot of weightage was given to class participation so be active.

Such a kind professor. He really helped me when I was struggling and was always encouraging and understanding. Love him.

Sean is really great, as was the class! He is so caring in terms of offering help, examples, additional material, and guiding you through the project. The assessments were good if you can apply and remember terms/concepts. The class needs you to participate every day and read the book to understand the comments and short lectures.

Sean's class is discussion based, so you definitely need to read the textbook before class. Sean's funny, keeps class engaging, and only lectures what is missed in the discussion or deemed very important. Learned a lot of frameworks for marketing that will help me in the future.

Very understanding and considerate professor. He does have a pretty interesting sense of humor that keeps the class alive. Class is heavily discussion based, but reading the textbook is all you need to do to prepare. Tests are somewhat challenging, but if you listen in in class and read the textbook it's not bad at all.

Took the class over the summer, super accommodating for people in different time zones. ALOT of class discussion so even if you don't know what to say, say something. Overall great class, amazing professor. Lectures alot but makes the content easy to digest.

Sean Gallagher was one of the best teachers I've had at Northeastern and I'm really glad I had him. Attendance and participation in class are essentially required if you want to get a good grade, but as long as you do those things, as long as you read the textbook, as long as you study a reasonable amount, you'll do fine in class.

I learned a lot in his class, and have a new appreciation for marketing! Definitely recommend taking the class with this professor.

This class isnt very lecture heavy, but rather driven by a lot of discussion of nightly readings. Prof Gallagher usually goes over key points after the discussion occurs, which can be helpful to go over important info for exams. Really encouraging professor, would always recommend

The intro to marketing class I took with this professor was discussion based and therefore attendance was mandatory. It was nice not having to sit and listen to him lecture the whole class, but some kids would also just say stuff simply to get participation points. He was a great professor, answered any question, kept a light mood and taught great

A fantastic professor and I would definitely recommend his class to anyone who actually wants to internalize the marketing material. He uses a discussion based structure which makes it necessary to read the textbook and be prepared, as there is cold calling. However, the professor is super encouraging and makes it easy to share your thoughts.

Professor Gallagher definitely knows what he's talking about, having a lot of personal experience. The whole class is discussion based. So, you'll definitely need to read the text or else you'll be lost. Grades are based off a few projects and exams that aren't terrible. The grading system is a little different, but he curves.

Sean (as we would be asked to call him) was one of the best professors I have had at Northeastern. He cares a lot about his students & really cares about the learning process & their development. I feel like he made learning fun & I really enjoyed coming to his class every day. Would definitely recommend him, he is a professor who enjoys teaching!

Sean is a great professor. He wanted all of his students to succeed but you have to put in the work. The course is extremely reading heavy so make sure that you come prepared for class. The class is discussion based with a short lecture at the end so it's important to have points ready to share from the reading. Also, the USE PEER TUTORING resource

Sean is a great professor. He wanted all of his students to succeed but you have to put in the work. He cares a lot about his students & really cares about the learning process & their development. We learned about team effectiveness and used it during our group projects which enabled the groups to work more efficiently and productively.

To do well in this class you MUST participate and do the readings. The group project is an important part of the class. The professor harps on team effectiveness in which he will prepare you for. Tests are multiple-choice and difficult, but they typically get scaled. If you participate, do the readings, and work hard you will do well.

As someone who took MKTG2201 Fall 2021 semester, I can say the transition back to a classroom setting was not easy but Sean made it bearable! This class is discussion and group project based so get ready to connect with your classmates! Sean really does care about each student and is always available after class - great guy to get coffee with!

Sean is one of the best professors I have had at Northeastern! He is super encouraging and makes it easy to share your thoughts. Sean definitely cares about his students and cares about your development throughout the learning process. I would highly recommend his class to anyone who wants to internalize and apply the marketing material.

MKTG 2209 with Sean was a delight. Sean is both an amazing teacher and person. He makes class fun and truly cares about his students. His discussion-based class, personal life examples, application activities, and willingness to answer any and all questions helped me succeed in this class. His dedication to team effectiveness was a plus.

Overall, this is a straightforward class to succeed in. It's not necessarily "easy," but if you do the readings, study hard and go to lectures, you succeed. It can be easy to slip up and stop doing the readings, and you'll quickly fall behind. You do learn a lot, and it's worth taking.

Sean is one of the best professors I've had at Northeastern. His class is discussion-based but don't let that scare you, even if you're an introvert like me! Sean goes above and beyond to make everyone feel comfortable speaking up and shares a lot about himself and his very relevant real-life experiences in marketing. Keep up and you will succeed!

Sean was a great professor. I really enjoyed learning in his class, and he really cared about his students. Even though it was a large class, it was easy for me to participate in a safe environment. Sean always encouraged any response to the reading. I also learned a lot about collaboration and team effectiveness. Definitely take again!

Sean is a great professor and is passionate about the courses he teaches. DO NOT take intro to mktg with him unless you are willing to participate in class. His exams are challenging, but he curves them on a generous scale. Read the textbook, participate in class, and contribute in discussions and you will find success.

Professor Sean is an amazing professor. He encourages students to participate in class through class discussions. He is passionate about marketing and often relates concepts to his own experiences and real life examples. I had his 8 am class, and his class is very engaging (not boring at all).

Sean was a great professor and by far my favorite. Advice I can offer is that you do the readings and participate in class. He is pretty straightforward about what he expects and he is really nice about it. As long as you read, pay attention in class, and study you will get an A. Also, go to his office hours (even if you don't have any questions).

Professor Sean is good and transparent. Class is very enjoyable with active discussion and some good humor. You need to read the textbook day in day out, to prepare for the quizzes which are pretty tough like he says. The course works on improving how good you are in a group. In class, you learn about marketing and pick up essential life skills.

Professor Sean was an excellent teacher, and I had a great time learning in class. All you need to do is show up to the class prepared, and you will do very well.

Very textbook heavy as the discussion revolves around the textbook. Tried taking a test using only his presentations as study material and bombed it. READ YO TEXTBOOK. Difficult to keep up every single week, so I cram the reading before each exam. Average score per exam was 80-90 w curve. Readings r so heavy, but tests are easier than Rachel's.

This professor is amazing! His lectures are fun and engaging. The exams are not that hard if you pay attention in class and do the readings (also everything is curved). The class is discussion based but it is actually really good and helps you learn. I had the class at 8am and it always brightened my day! Absolutely take this professor!!

Amazing, kind, funny professor who really cares about his students. A lot of reading but the material isn't anything too challenging. The marketplace group project will really challenge you but a good learning experience. He takes the time to create a welcoming, nonjudgmental learning environment. Very generous with curves on exams as well.

Super great professor who definitely cares about his students and the course material! Participation is huge, but I would highly recommend even if you're someone who struggles with it - Sean makes a very encouraging environment and it helps with learning to the tenth degree. Definitely read your textbook, that's the best way to do well on exams

Sean's a great professor that makes, in my opinion, a boring class interesting. The only thing to be wary of is that 30% of your grade is subjective. 20% class participation and 10% is a peer evaluation from a group project. As long as you get As on the exams (which are easy), you should be fine.

Sean is great! The class is heavily based on discussions and team work (group project). We had lots of readings on team effectiveness and creating a safe space for sharing. For a good grade: know key terms and frameworks from the textbook, participate (1x/class is a good goal), and spend time on Marketplace. The exams are scaled so the mean is a B+

A one-of-a-kind professor! You'll learn lessons and develop skills you can utilize beyond the classroom. His team training is especially valuable since few classes teach how to work in groups effectively. Sean also has plenty of stories and extensive knowledge about marketing that he's passionate about sharing during both class and office hours.

Professor Gallagher is a true gem of a professor. I had him at 8:00 AM, though I was able to pay attention due to his teaching style and engagement with students. His class is discussion-based, which I thoroughly enjoyed since it allowed me to connect topics to my own knowledge outside of a textbook.

Sean is an amazing professor! An intro class might not be the most exciting thing, but Sean was able to make it engaging. A lot of skills we learned from this class, such as team effectiveness, proved to be useful in and out of class. If you read the textbook and participate in class, you'll end up with a good grade!

Sean is a great professor and had made intro to marketing very interesting. Classes are discussion based with 20 percent of the grade participation and 20 percent simulation based. As long as you do your chapter readings before class you will do great in the class. Sean applies his career in the industry to the textbook readings. Overall great prof

You will be hard-pressed to find a professor as passionate and experienced as Professor Gallagher. The class is discussion-based, so be ready to participate. Another major part of your grade is a marketplace simulation project; however, his tips on team effectiveness made this the most productive/constructive group project I've participated in.

Sean was a great professor and I learned so much in Intro to Marketing. The class is participation-based and requires students to read the textbook. However, as long as you do those two things, you should do very well in the class. Personally, I'm pretty introverted, but Sean is always encouraging and never makes anyone feel bad for their answers.

This class wasn't too hard as he heavily curved the quizzes, which were very textbook based and required you to really read and understand the concepts. Participation wasn't too hard as you could just mention a concept in the textbook and tie it back to something similar. The group project was manageable. Overall, a great professor for this class!

I would definitely recommend Professor Gallagher for MKTG2201. His classes are 90% discussion and maybe 10% lecture, and if you connect any of the concepts to your life experiences and raise your hand at least once a day you should be fine!! The group project is a semester long marketing simulation and he loves to talk about team effectiveness.

Great professor and really cares for his students. Participation is HUGE in this class so make sure you come prepared every day (read the textbook!!). There is also a group project with little instructions given from Sean but it really helps you apply what you learned in class into a simulation. Get ready to work for the A.

Professor Gallagher is one of my favorite professors at Northeastern and I would highly recommend taking his course. His classes is consisted of discussions with a little bit of lecture towards the end. Professor Gallagher himself is very encouraging and experienced in marketing. Overall, a great professor and enjoyable class to take.

GOAT professor! My favorite professor at NEU

Sean Is easily one of the best professors I have had at northeastern, his knowledge and teaching style really make the class fun and easy to follow. 10/10 recommend taking any class he teaches

If you want to get an A in Into to Marketing with Sean Gallagher, prepare to work for it. Participation matters, you need to speak consistently in class. You have to know a lot from the textbook. The quizzes are hard, I highly recommend peer tutoring BEFORE the quizzes. My team got 99% on marketplace from taking risks & spending A LOT of hours

Professor Sean's teaching style promotes active participation, and he often shares personal experiences and encourages us to share our own, helping us to understand how the material applies in the real world and makes the class more engaging. If you read the textbook and participate, the exams will not be as difficult as he may make them out to be.

LOTS of reading (especially in summer), MUST participate in class, PREP for group meetings. Consequently, I learned a lot of valuable marketing knowledge thanks to Prof. Sean. Don't take this class if you want an effortless A. Prof. Sean is not a push-over, but he is fair. He is compassionate to his students and deeply passionate about marketing.

Professor Gallagher is a compassionate person who understands students on a personal level. Active participation is utilised, which allows students to learn by doing. Team effectiveness is also prioritised, over the course of a group-project, where students learn how to effectively navigate past challenges to create high performing teams.

This is one of the best classes I ever took. Lectures were incredibly interesting and Sean created an environment that made people want to participate. I learned so much both theoretical and practical applications of marketing that I legitimately use in my real life all the time. It is a hard course, but so incredibly worth it.

I can say Sean is one of my favorite professors at Northeastern. He cares about his student and really creates a safe space for people to speak up and participate. Unlike some other business classes, I actually learned stuff from his class and really enjoyed all the classes.

Sean is a great teacher and you can tell her really cares about his students. This class is heavy on reading the textbook to be prepared for daily class discussions. The discussion-based class pushed me out of my comfort zone, and made me a stronger student all around. He wants you to do well and will help you out when you need it.

I took this class as a non-marketing concentration and had a great experience. Although the class does require hard work, the discussion based classes honestly really help solidify the information. Sean is clearly passionate about the subject and his students, so if you need help, he is available.

Professor Gallagher is an amazing professor. He teaches through a discussion based format, which allowed to really grasp the content we were learning, rather than sitting through a lecture. Additionally, the Marketplace Simulation is a really fun assignment in this course!

Even as a non marketing major, I can easily say Sean is one of my favorite professors I have had at Northeastern. He cares a lot about his students and is passionate about marketing. The discussion based class style was very helpful for understanding concepts.The sim was also fun and beneficial. Make sure to read the chapters before class and tests

Sean is the man. Class is all about participation and he encourages you to get out of your comfort zone which is great. Also teaches great lessons about team building and feeling comfortable within team settings; through the simulation. Sean is an absolute beauty of a professor and one of my favorites at Northeastern

Sean was one of my favorite professors I've had so far at Northeastern. Don't let the participation requirement scare you too much, as this class pushed me to be a better in-class speaker. I also greatly improved my teamwork skills through the marketing simulation project. I couldn't recommend a professor and course more!

I learned a lot from Sean's class but never found it stressful- he wants his students to do well and is so engaging. He stresses the importance of participation but is super supportive and loves hearing any & all contributions. Also the group project we did was the best I have ever had all because of the emphasis he puts on team effectiveness.

Sean is a great professor. Although his class was challenging, it was manageable. The class structure makes it important to read the books and pay attention in class during the discussions. Participation is graded, so it's important to participate as much as possible. He prepares students with resources and materials to excel in the class.

Sean Gallagher is one of the best professors Ive had at Northeastern, He is extremely nice and creates a great learning environment you can feel comfortable asking questions and speaking up. The class requires a decent amount of work, but if you do the readings on time, engage in class, and study, it is easy to be successful in this course.

He is a very well-informed, caring, and accomplished professor. He knows what he is teaching, which is made obvious in his class. He is a supporting, amazing, and inspiring professor. I have learned so much from him to the point that I learned to love what he teaches so much that I switched my major.

Sean was an amazing professor and probally. one of the best that I have had at Northeastern so far. Whenever I had a question about something he was very easy to access to talk to and his answers were always very helpful. You do a lot of readings, but it is worth it because I learned so much!

Sean is kind and knowledgeable professor. Participation is emphasized and a big part of your grade. The exams are fair and he adds about 8% back to your grade to curve average to around B+. Beware of the marketplace game. Students may brush it off aside and not putting in the time and effort will come back and bite students at end of the semester.

If you put in the effort and keep up with the readings, you'll do well in this class. The class discussions are based on the readings. You can tell the prof is very knowledgeable abt marketing which makes it enjoyable. There is a group project in the market simulation. This taught me how to collaborate and the importance of effective communication.

Sean is an amazing professor who cares deeply about his students, their success, and their mental wellbeing. To do well in his class, be prepared to read the textbook and participate heavily. The team effectiveness training and Marketplace simulation he used were both extremely helpful in understanding the marketing frameworks.

I truly learned a lot from this course about marketing, but more importantly, I learned a great deal about teamwork effectiveness, especially that having a positive group mentality is key to the group's success. This class is what you make of it, so be prepared to work hard, adapt to your team's needs, and contribute during class discussions.

Sean always made sure each class was interesting and helped us understand team effectiveness skills. He was always wiling to talk to us and listen when we were facing difficulties and was very understanding. While Marketing itself was not interesting to me, Sean did enough to make sure even I have valuable takeaways from the class.

Sean is a great professor who is dedicated to his students' success. He encourages participation and understanding of marketing frameworks, but also taught a lot about working effectively in teams which was crucial for success in the Marketplace Simulation. His support outside of class and sense of humor made the class all the more enjoyable.

Sean is a great professor that effectively conveys complex marketing concepts. He emphasizes team effectiveness, encouraging collaborative group work through the Marketplace Simulation. His dedication to teaching and passion for marketing make his class a great learning experience. Be prepared to participate, this class is all about discussion.

Sean is a great professor. Exams are fair and curves giving about 8% back to give class average a B+. Warning, Sean is a very tough grader on participation and will even tell students at the start of the semester to drop the class if you do not like participating. Marketplace game is manageable if you spend at least 1-2 hrs on it per week.

Sean was a phenomenal teacher. If you come to class having prepared the previous nights reading, participation is easy. In addition to the textbook material, he teaches lessons about team effectiveness that are straightforward but really help you succeed in group settings. I would absolutely recommend Sean to anyone that needs to take marketing.

Sean is one of the best professors I have had at Northeastern. Be prepared to read all the required material and come into class ready to participate as the classes are strictly discussion based. The course is relatively difficult, but you should do great if you complete the readings. I learned so much and discovered a passion for marketing!

Sean is very passionate about marketing. You must participate in order to do well in his class (20% of grade). Tests are super manageable if you study for them. Beware if taking this class in summer it is a lot of reading. Overall good guy and if you put in the work there is no reason why you shouldn't get an A.

Sean was an incredible instructor. If students actually put the time into reading the assigned chapters and participating in class discussion the tests are more than manageable. I recommend quickly rereading the chapters prior to each exam, focusing on frameworks and key term. Overall, loved this class.

Overall, great class! Defo recommend, I was taught many invaluable lessons here. Be prepared for a DISCUSSION based class, as he heavily emphasizes. Like- ok, even if you're reading out of the textbook in class, if you pay attention in class, then you'll actually learn :) Exams are heavily based on textbook, so make your flashcards from there.

I truly loved the class, but I love discussion based classes and participating. He holds students to a high standard, but its not a impossible standard by any means. Hes one of the most personable professors and genuinely loves teaching, and hes incredibly good at it. Tests are hard as hell though, and test on topics not highlighted in class.

You really only need to do 3 things to succeed here, participate in class, read and take notes on the chapter material, and put work into the group project. If you can't do these things for any reason, do not take this class, Everything he asks of you in class is on the chapter, and it's open note. He's a really good teacher, just participate.

Great guy. Passionate about the topic of marketing. Participation matters, so don't take this class if you are quiet. I am not a marketing major and do not have much interest in marketing but Sean makes the class interesting for everyone. Would definitely recommend taking Sean

Professor Gallagher is great! If you are prepared and do the reading thoroughly before class, you will be set for class discussions. The exams do go into detail, so don't leave it all until the day before the exam. The group project is time-consuming, but the more time you put into it, the better your group does.

Sean is a great lecturer and you feel like you are actually learning. Exams/class discussions are straight from textbook content, so you better read it and take good notes. There is a huge focus on the marketplace simulation (team-based) and class participation, so only take this course if you like to participate in class and do group projects

Professor Gallagher is a knowledgable lecturer who really cares about the subject and his students learning the content. Be ready to contribute things from the readings and share them with the class. The Market Place Simulation is taken very seriously as well as team effectiveness.Overall really knowledgable, but not an easy class.

The bulk of this class is revolving around the marketing simulation. Pay attention in class, participate, and read the textbook and you will get an A. Beware, Sean tells a lots of jokes...

Sean is an amazing professor, who is understanding and is very knowledgeable in this field. Imo you do not need to kiss up as long as you show you're trying. Group project is the hardest part in his class, but as long as you show improvement and keep asking questions, you'll be fine. Put in the work, and be able to show it, and you'll pass.

I dropped business because of the first professor I took marketing w. Sean's anecdote-filled lectures allowed you to grasp everything if you just listened and participated. He encouraged everyone to say something without reproach. His lessons went beyond academics. He taught us how to be leaders and teammates at the same time in life in general.

He is amazing and really cares about his students. you will actually learn things in this class and not just about marketing but life in general. loved him. so helpful and understanding!

I took MKTG2209 asynchronously. Even though he wasn't in Boston, Professor Gallagher was extremely responsive and available to answer questions. The rubrics for the homework was clear, and he sent out announcements to further clarify exactly what he was looking for. The homework was tough and required a lot of effort, but his grading was fair.

He is an amazing professor and I learned so many things while taking his class. He cares about his students deeply. I would 100% recommend taking his class if you take marketing!

His class is discussion based so be ready to talk about the reading, but he makes his lectures very interesting with lots of real world examples and stories, which help with understanding the concepts. Highly recommend taking this course with him, but you definitely get graded based on the effort and preparation you put into the class!

Professor Gallagher is extremely knowledgable and passionate about Marketing. Each lecture is really insightful and he explains concepts clearly through using real life examples. The group project helps develop communication, teamwork, and leadership skills. Professor Gallagher cares about students and does his best to make sure everyone succeeds.

The class was fair. If you put the work in, you'll get a good grade. Exams and quizzes are based on the textbook and you need to be attentive to detail. The simulation is easy as long as you work with your group-- not rocket science. He also gives an opportunity for extra credit. Discussion based class so expect to participate.

I am glad I ignored the negative comments. I took Summer 1 in person. The tests are the same format, and the only real work you have to do is read the textbook and talk. The class is discussion based so speak up so you won't be picked on and caught off guard. The tests come straight from the book so take notes in class.

Loved his curves. He curves so the class average is a B+ (88) and then whatever letter grade you fall under you get the highest percent. All you have to do in the class is read and try. He loves to see effort. He is very knowledgeable and a great teacher. Anyone with a bad review is mad they didn't get a good grade on his tests.

Professor Gallagher promoted an interactive learning environment helping the students to always stay engaged. Tests questions were taken directly from the textbook material, so if you took good notes you will do well. Marketplace simulation accounts for a good chunk of your grade, but if you put forth the time and effort you will be fine.

I loved Sean's class; it was appropriately challenging and delivered the content intuitively. I felt performance was evaluated fairly and he repeatedly made the criteria of evaluation clear throughout the semester. All of the homework felt like appropriate prep for the corresponding class sessions and was never excessive. A great class all around.

The course included a lot of reading and required active participation, which was definitely worthwhile. The group projects were engaging and practical, and the extra credit opportunities at the end were a great bonus. He made complex marketing ideas easy to understand and kept the lectures fun. The clear explanations made learning enjoyable

Personally, I had a great experience with Sean overall. His lectures were engaging and collaborative, which helped me remember the content effectively, and he clearly cared about his students successes. I know his reviews can be polarizing on RMP and TRACE, but I would say to go into his classes with an open mind before jumping to conclusions.

guy is a great professor. definitely participate or else you will be done for. pretty average difficulty and a really nice dude.

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS AT 8AM. Attendance is mandatory and you need to be actively participating to get a full grade. Sean's very passionate about the subject and will help you learn effectively but there's definitely other easier marketing professors; that being said, its really not to bad as long as you keep up with assignments.

Sean is one of the best professors I've had at NEU. His care for his students is clear, and he's an all-around amazing person. He's an exceptional teacher who brings a lot of insight to his classes, but to truly benefit, you need to put in the effort by thoroughly engaging with the material and actively participating in his lectures.

Easy professor if you read the assigned take home readings and participate in class. All questions in his quizzes come from the book, or assigned articles. Generous in grading and all tests are online. There are definitely easier professors, but you actually get to learn things from him.

The class is challenging with the need

The class requires consistent information digestion, but once you get in a rhythm it feels easy. Sean is friendly and easy to talk to. His lectures are quite creative and engaging. The group project simulation is the most fun!

Sean is a very nice guy and is dedicated to the subject. He truly wants his students to succeed. Do not take this class if you're not going to participate, he mentions it every day. The marketing simulation for this class specifically is also annoying, just pray for a good group. Overall, a great professor though!

Class was lowkey way too hard for an intro to mktg class, but manageable nonetheless. Def one of the better, if not the best mktg profs. He tried his best to make lectures engaging & relate it to his career experience. Cool, funny guy who truly cares about your learning. PARTICIPATE, study, be prepared to put effort in, and you'll be fine.

Great guy. Took his 8 a.m., which was no easy feat. He is a very caring guy and very knowledgeable on the subject. Grade is mostly based on take-home quizzes (lock down browser) which I liked. He is huge on class participation so not the best for shy people. If you have the chance, take his class.

Professor Sean cares about his students and wants them to succeed. He is passionate about marketing and has experience to back up his knowledge. The course is manageable for any student if they're willing to read the textbook and participate in class. Assignments include the group simulation, market research surveys, quizzes, and a final.

Professor Gallagher is a fantastic teacher. I highly recommend taking him as a professor. Class attendance is mandatory, but the lectures are important for learning. He is a very caring and understanding professor. I felt like I was heard in his class, and he cared about my and other students' comments. I highly recommend taking his class!

Professor is very lighthearted, comical, and engaging. Although participation and attendance does matter, he makes the classroom experience enjoyable and truly elevates the marketing experience encouraging you to come to class. Very understanding about excused absences as well. Do your work, participate, and you will be completely fine.

I genuinely loved this class and the lecture style that was used, lectures are heavily participation based, just sharing out thoughts and answers based on the readings given outside of class. I encourage everyone to take this course regardless of being introverted or extroverted, participation is one of the easiest ways to secure an A!!!

Professor Gallagher creates a respectful, discussion based class that made me feel heard and encouraged me to speak up in class. The conversations were thoughtful and helped me grow. There's a major group project so strong communication and teamwork are key. He's fair with grading, clear with expectations, and really values student participation.

I was ready to switch to an online section after reading about participation, but as someone who had never been a big participant I was pleasantly surprised to find myself raising my hand almost daily because of how Sean teaches. Although the class isn't necessarily easy, he provides students with all of the tools and support for success.

Professor Sean was one of the most caring and supportive professors I have encountered at Northeastern. His knowledge of the subject and dedication to helping students understand the material are apparent. If ever there was something I was struggling with, Professor Sean met me where I was and helped me identify tools and methods to improve.

There is admittedly a lot of work to do outside of class (textbook and other readings) that can take a long time, but his lectures are engaging, and a large part of your grade is based on participation. Tests are challenging, but studying the flashcards that come with the textbook makes them much easier. Favorite professor at Northeastern!

Professor Gallagher is a great marketing teacher with extensive real-world experience. His insights make concepts easy to understand and bridge the gap between the abstract and concrete. Class participation helps you internalize the material. I highly recommend him if you want practical, engaging, and entertaining lessons.

Sean is one of the nicest, most caring professors I've ever had. Take his classes whenever you can. He's not a difficult professor, and you can pass the class without ever opening the textbook. However, if you do choose to give it your all, you'll get so much out of them.

The discussion-based and mandatory participation style of the class may seem intimidating at first, and I even considered dropping the class early on myself, but if you have any ounce of courage in you, or have any desire to truly learn (and you should for the price you pay for NEU), then it would be in your best interest to stay in this class.

While participation is a huge portion of your grade, Professor Gallagher provided a welcoming environment to all his students. As someone who is more used to lecture-based courses, this class definitely was a different, but good experience. Professor Gallagher is also someone who is always there for his students, no matter their circumstances.

Came into this class not thinking I had much to gain from Marketing but he made this class enjoyable and made me feel like I learned something

If you actually care about learning. Take this class. People will say this class is hard, but as long as you do the minimum he is asking which is essentially just participating in the class instead of sitting on your laptop watching YouTube, you will get an A. Also, you'll probably learn more in this class than any other class you've taken so far.

Professor definitely knows a great deal about the course and has first hand experience to share that kept the class very interesting even at 8am. Class is discussion based, so participation is very important and apart of your final grade. Difficult class but manageable if you are willing to put the time in.

Sean is knowledgeable and an overall good professor. It is a heavy workload: constant readings, participation matters, and an intense group project. I took it over the summer and it was SO FAST (don't recommend taking over summer). Overall, great professur, lots of works (especially when the summer is already fast paced), but you will learn a lot.

I had him for an 8am last semester and just ran into him again outside Wollys today. What an absolute goat. Super caring and funny. Participating that much at 8am is a little rough, just get yourself a coffee and participate early in the class and you'll be set. You have to get lucky with getting a good group but he is able to help a lot if needed!

Sean is the nicest Professor ive ever had. He is so much fun whoever is complaining was probably scared to step out of their comfort zone and participate. Take this class it will make your day hes awesome. Group project was annoying but low effort with about an hour of commitment every week. He is truly a kind and inspiring person

Grades attendance, quizzes are take home but on lockdown with the camera on. HUGE emphasis on participation and weighed heavier than other courses but he's really nice.

Honestly, Sean wasn't a horrible professor. I actually enjoyed how the lectures were discussion based as I felt it allowed me to understand the material better. Group project was a massive portion of the grade so if you don't get a good grade your kind of screwed. Also, participation/attended is what determines you from getting a B to an A.
