Teach & Cognit.- Thought he was very good. Book is needed. Review sheets are excellent. Tests are fairly difficult. Presentation/Papers are hard & graded hard as well. Learned a great deal

Speaks in 3rd person, but is a Psych prof so this is acceptable :) "Do you like Sineshaw's class? Do you think Sineshaw is exhibiting peculiar behavior standing on this desk?" Keep up with notes. Gives review sheet for tests. Got an

I enjoyed his teaching style. It is a long class, but he does a good job keeping the class's attention. He wants his students to do well in the class, unlike many professors I've had in the past.

This guy is absolutely adorable. He's hard to understand, but once you're used to the way he talks, the class is fun. You can tell he likes what he teaches, and that's important.

He is very friendly and helpful although his accent sometimes makes it difficult to understand him, although he's very funny, he refers to himself in the third person and randomly changes the volume of his voice without warning or reason.

he's a really nice guy and a good teacher. yes he does have an accent but its really not that hard to understand. i learned alot from his class.

I loved him, his class was very peaceful, and if you actually listen to him, he's not boring at all. As a matter of fact he's quite insightful, and gives good examples. He's very funny too.

Very insightful. Had him for Learning, Teaching & Cognition. He is very soft spoken, so you do have to listen, but he is excellent. Teaches things by stating in different ways to capture all students at some point! Highly recommended!

nice man, had him 2 years ago,he still smiles at me in the hallway. grading on tests could have been better, hates giving As. Expect a B. 3 tests and paper presentation, now just 2 tests? Not much ed, mostly psych, this class improved my learning tho.

Rsrch Mthds in general is a hard topic.He was very cool about it and let class out early if he saw we were getting overwhelmed. Alot of work, 4 tests, 3 articles, 1 paper plus presentation. But there was always chance for extra credit. I recommend!

Very knowledgable, decent amount of work, extra credit, tests come straight from hw questions and lectures. Tests not bad if you understand material. Wants you to understand the material. Got a B+. Good prof to take for this class.

He's a good guy, lots of work though. If you don't keep up on the reading you will sink faster than a ship. His accent makes him a little tough to understand (he's Ethiopian) but it's not a reason to knock the man. Ask questions on everything and you'll fair very well. It's a good class and foundation for future teachers.

He really isn't that bad. His tests are straight from the notes. You have one paper and an oral presentation based on that paper. He is a little boring, but definitely able to get an A in with not that much work. I would take him again.

He's not that bad, but his class is very boring. His tests are really easy because he gives you study guides before all of them... 4 tests a semester and 1 presentation. Study and you'll do fine. Theres no other work besides studying for tests

genius!

He's better than people give him credit for. His accent is fine. He stayed pretty true to his sillabus and gives review sheets for every exam. He definitly knows what he's talking about but class tends to get boring when he rambles. Pretty easy A or B, bring your laptop of he let's you but pay attention and read.

he's a nice guy and the grading isn't all too bad...3 exams and 1 project all at 25%...he wants the students to do well and gives reviews for all the exams. lectures may be boring, but which lectures aren't. overall i thought he was pretty good

Really nice guy.3 exams,a research presentation and participation are all he really asks for.Has a heavy accent and doesn't use powerpoints so you do have to pay attention and take your own notes but its really not that bad.

He is extremely knowledgable and knows what he's talking about. If you're interested in the subject and like what he's teaching it's an easy A. If not, you'll have to try a little harder. His accent takes a few classes to get used to, but it's not terrible.

Great guy, 3 multiple choice exams. Gives you a study guide with the exact terms for the test. Very small research paper/presentation. I also had him for Learning, Cognition & Teaching, same deal minus the research paper. I highly recommend him, extremely enjoyable class, learned a lot.

I thought he was going to be awful based on the reviews, but he is a great professor. He's passionate about the teaching profession and his lectures although always interesting, were very long. The discussion questions in class help break up the lecture, but he goes over everything. His accent is not a problem, and if you pay attention, you're ok.

Just focus on passing tests, nothing else matters. I don't even think he ever learned my name. But, his accent didn't take away from his lectures. Still, lectures felt long because I feel like he runs out of things to say and has to fill in time with busy work lol. If you're good @ multiple choice tests, take him, it's the only thing that affects u

Really easy and interesting class. If you have perfect attendance he will give you a grade raise. His lectures are boring sometimes but if you are a psych major you will probably like the class. His tests are multiple choice, very easy. One five page paper about your childhood. Loved him.

Three exams, one short paper. Pretty straightforward. I am very bad at psychology and pulled an A- in his class so I would recommend. Easy tests if you study for them. He does have a thick accent and his lectures can get long, but if you're paying attention they are very helpful. I would take again.

Sineshaw is a very cool professor and depending on how the class did, he will curve to help out. He actually cares and gets to know all of his students. Very passionate, and intelligent. His accent takes a little getting used to, but after that, he's good. Classes are engaging, read the book and you will do fine. I will definitely take him again.

Don't even try to take notes based on what he's saying. Read the assigned chapters and follow his worksheets and the class should be a breeze. He gives three exams (including midterm and final) and one paper. He takes attendance everyday and it affects your grade. He's very funny and nice and helpful.

Sineshaw is a very intelligent and interesting professor. He does have a thick accent but by the 3rd class you will get used to it and be ale to understand what he is saying. He is not difficult and is very understanding, provided that you are doing the work. Take him if you need to fulfill any requirements, you will not fail if you do the work.

Sineshaw is a caring man who really wants his students to learn and do well. However, he will not tolerate students who do not attend class, who use their phones, and disrupt the class. 3 tests (30% each), 1 paper (10%). As long as you read the text book and listen to his lecture, you will do well. One of my favorite professors, would recommend!

This professor is difficult to understand, but once you get used to his accent you should not have a problem. He cares about his students very much and wants them to succeed in whatever path they take. Paying attention in class is the best thing to do to get a good grade on the exams. Exams are relatively easy and do not take too much studying.

Pay attention to the lectures and you should be in good shape. Exams are not bad at all if you actually look over the material.

I don't know why there are so many bad reviews for this professor. He is so sweet and caring and is very knowledgable about this subject. His tests are super straightforward and he gives a study guide a week in advanced that tells you exactly what is on the exams. The class is so easy if you study, and as I said, he is so understanding.

Connects everything he teaches to its educational implications which is really helpful for teacher ed majors. After every test he sits down with you individually and talks you through it. One pretty short paper and 4 tests (one being the final) which he gives detailed study guides for each. Heavy lecture but he makes it interesting! Best prof!

Im gonna keep it real with you. T is awesome. Yes his lectures might be boring and drag for the 3 1/2 hours but he is so nice and low key funny. Tests are pretty easy and always curves. If you go to every class is gives your overall grade a 2% boost. Highly recommended for good grade but sometimes it feels like you want to leave. Takes will power.

He's a very good professor. His tests are pretty hard. However, he gives a study guide. He is also a nice person, and has teaching experience from Ethopia and America. Take!!!

Super intelligent and knowledgeable about the topics discussed. Lectures are a bit long however tests are easy if you pay attention and put in the work. He also makes class very relaxed and is funny !

Hes the sweetest guy you will ever meet! His class may be a little boring at times but its not hard whatsoever! As long as you pay attention and take notes, his class is a breeze!

People are so harsh to professor Sineshaw. If they used an ounce of effort to meaningfully learn the material and listen to his lectures and UNDERSTAND the material rather than just memorize it, they'd pass this course with flying colors. They blame him and his accent on the fact that they aren't smart enough to retain the easily accessible info.

I love Prof. Sineshaw. He is very wise and he knows what he is talking about. If you actually pay attention to his lectures, take notes, and study for the exams you'll do just fine in the class. Everyone hates on Prof. Sineshaw because his teaching style oldschool, but if you have any questions before exams he is happy to help.
