For a Level 1 law class, it's a tough class. The material has to be understood. In my opinion, the professor's way of teaching is complicated. He puts you on the spot and can be rude. One time he said to a student "Speak like a man" That's rude and not necessary! I would suggest trying another teacher if possible.

He gives out outlines for every class . READ AND DO YOUR HOMEWORK! You must!! Participate and he'll love you and if you don't, be aware that he will randomly call on you. Do not be late for class.

Professor Sanders assigns seats to grown adults, and calls people out for certain things in front of the whole class. I saw him confront a student to the point where she had to explain herself for leaving due to getting her period and having to run to the store during class. The few females in the class were mortified. I wouldn't take him again.

Sander is a very easy to follow professor and I found his law course to be one of the most interesting I've taken at Baruch. He assigned daily homework so be ready to be put aside 1-3 hours to write up some good answers for the textbook questions. He's a lenient grader if you show effort and thought. Be prepared to read your answers and explain!

You learn everything from the textbook and the lecture is just for him to grade your attendance. He'll grill you for the whole class if you don't know the answer to his question and if you don't reply to him right away he'll mark you absent. Don't take him.

Sanders is the best professor Ive had at Baruch. Great informative lectures, explains stuff really well. Must go to class, a good amount of homework that must be completed well. He calls on people a lot, participation is big. Get ready to share your homework to the class. Textbook is very useful, must read it. Pay attention and read textbook for A.

Hes very condescending and he makes fun of us whenever we dont know the answer to questions or if we dont say it the specific way he wants us to (we spent 30 minutes trying to find the specific word he wanted us to us). I only took this class because of the good reviews, but they seem to be all lies. Do not take if you want to have mental health

Do not take this class... How is it that I'm passing with flying colors, but I almost failed his class ( I dropped it)? The material is not insanely hard; however, I will admit one does have to put in the effort to connect the dots. He makes the class so much more difficult with his snide and condescending remarks instead of answering questions...

one of the classes i had to study for the most, but his outlines were lifesavers. do the outlines as you read the textbook , go to class prepared, and ask as many questions as you need bc participation is 15% of your grade. he is also more lenient w students that participate a lot, so that might help you stick out when giving curves. sweet prof.

Overall, if you do not want Law 1011 to be harder than it should be, avoid this professor at all costs! He is very methodical, but his work is very time consuming and can be challenging. He will definitely prepare you for the midterm and final but overall this class is tedious.

Highly recommend Professor Sanders because he is very knowledgeable in law. Definitely a challenging class and needs you to put a lot of work into it, but his outlines are AMAZING so take notes during the lectures as it is a life-saver for the projects, midterm, and final. He also gives many examples, making the concepts much easier to understand.

Sanders is an amazing professor if you give up your time and dedicate yourself to the course material. He can be a bit strict, and participation is worth 15% of your grade, but if you come prepared to class and participate you will receive a good grade. His outlines were definitely a huge plus.

Professor is horrendous. He will if you don't participate call you out and embarrass you in front of the class especially when it comes to homework questions. A very strict grader when it comes to every assignments including midterm and final. Heavy on participation, you'll have to participate in every class (15% worth your grade).

There is a lot of reading about 60-90 pages a week. He knows his stuff, but is not approachable at all. He WILL call you out in front of everyone in class, if he encourages you turn on your camera. There is a total of about 21 homeworks, he only grades 3 of them randomly, they do count towards your participation of 15%. AVOID!!!!!!!

Shocked to see all the bad reviews.I took his class and I am on the shyer side but he never made me feel bad about it because I did all the work necessary (which was not even difficult tbh). He gives you specific words to use because that's how the legal system works and that's how you do well on the final.This class was easy and usually i struggle

The very outdated way of teaching and a very boring class. if you don't participate in class often it is likely he will be rude when you do. Overall the work itself isnt too difficult if you read the assigned chapters.

I would never take Sanders again he has this sarcastic persona where he laughs at students who answers incorrectly. ParticipatIon is 15 % of your grade you are likely to have a better grade and communication if you do so. He quote on quote doesn't like to repeat himself, he sometimes gets annoyed when students ask questions. Join at your own risk.

Don't know why there are bad reviews of this professor. I was for the majority of the class quiet, but he has never made a fuss about it. Yes attendance is mandatory. Yes the work is simple, and somewhat of a breeze if you actually put in the effort since its a difficult subject. Syllabus! Use it to your advantage. Overall, I recommend him 100%!

Absolutely the worst professor I've ever had. He treats students like they're in elementary school and has no respect for them. If you don't know the answer, he will put you on the spot and embarrass you in front of the class. Despite studying hard, I was shocked by my final grade. The entire experience was frustrating and unprofessional.

Best to show early to his class and not a minute later, to avoid being called out. He highly encourages participation as it is worth a good portion of the grade. learning material is not very hard, but is memorization heavy. all homework counts as a part of preparedness grade even though he does not grade all of them.

He is the best professor at Baruch if you didn't take him yet you have lived under a rock your whole life. If you work hard enough to prove him that you are making an effort you should be fine. There are multiple homeworks however it's not too much so don't be traumatized. He also loves taking about random stuff sometimes so just play along and fun

If the professor doesn't like you, don't expect to get a good grade. He's very rude and condescending. I got an 86 on the midterm. He really has an attitude problem. I did very well on the final. Instead of getting an A, I got a D-. Don't take him if you want your mental health to be good. Stay away from this rude professor as far away as possible.

Professor Sanders has a specific teaching style, but if you engage with it, the class is manageable. The workload is reasonable, and using resources like the textbook and Unstuck ai can help with study prep. Participation is key, so be prepared to speak up.
