He comes off as really tough at first, but after the first day is a cool teacher. He does what he can to help you in any way. I would recommend taking him
Professor Teague is probably the greatest professor I have had (and I've had quite a few good ones). He is extremely knowledgeable, and INCREDIBLY helpful. He can be quite intense at times, but its worth it to stick it out. Take him for whatever you can, and you will NOT regret it! Minimal homework, fair exams, and great class! Wish he taught more!
Take this professor for whatever classes you need--- You will not regret it. The classes are challenging in a very good way--- They make you think. Mr Teague is full of knowledge and very helpful! He is always willing to answer questions and help (personal, or about class) which is a rare but good quality!
Fantastic professor--- Need more of him out there. A role-model for anyone in the profession. Intellectually challenging class.Highly recommend this professor!
Take him!
GREAT!
Take him for whatever you can! Absolutely amazing classes.
Great Professor! Very personable and helpful. If you really want to know about this field, take him! You will learn soo much. And he is a very "fair" professor.
If you think he'll let you blow this class off, you're wrong! Serious students only! He challenges you to think in new ways and use critical thinking. His background really adds to the class. An amazing role model and exellent, serious teacher. Again,I don't recommend if you want an "Easy A." But, if you want to gain real knowledge, take his class!
Excellent Professor. He will challenge you to think --- And you will learn what truly happens in this field. He is consistent and very approachable. He is very helpful on and educational and personal level. Also very understanding. However, this is NOT a blow off class. You will be challenged. If you want to learn, take him! WCC's best professor!
He is an awesome teacher.. does come off as a hard ass, but he is very soft. The only downside to him is he gets off on tangents that dont relate to the class so you have to keep him on track. He will challenge you! as long as you are in his classes, you shouldnt get less than a C. Very helpful both personally and Academically. Highly reccomended!
Best professor. Coolest professor. Do your job & youll do well. hes fair, and knows what hes talking about.
Great teacher, lets you know what the best and worst of the is carrer you will embark on. The Grade is yours you will earn it or loose it. He cares for the academic progress of people that care care of there own. He lets his expections known there very few suprises.
BEST professor I have ever had. Take him for whatever you can... You will learn so soo much, and get the most out of your education!
easy to understand, very vocal. HARD TESTS! be on your toes.
Had him for FSW and SOC225 this semester. He is a great instructor. Teague has awesome stories, easy tests with bunnies, no homework. Don't let the first day of class fool you. He is the nicest man ever! There are a lot of notes and if you take Group dynamics, be prepared for a HUGE group project!!
One of the best professors around... he is intelligent, kind, and very very passionate about his work. If you want to truly learn, this is the professor for you. He does NOT take excuses. His exams are very challenging... But provides good lectures, and you will truly learn and apply what you learn.
I am not sure if I put the correct section number. I took group counseling and dynamics and intro to human services. I really dont know how anyone could fail his courses unless they didnt try at all. Hes a great teacher . I learned alot.Group project was frustrating but dont get scared its very doable just do a little each week, you will be fine :)
I had Teague for family social work and intro and he was GREAT,this man has so much knowledge it crazy. He cares about his students achievement and wants everyone to do well. I am taking him for group and race and ethics this semester AWSOME GUY!
Amazing teacher. Taking him right now. He is absolutely hilarious, I've never laughed so hard in a class. Everything is straightforward, read the textbook and listen to lectures. Be active and you can't possibly fail. Only 3 exam, they're tricky, bunnies are hopping everywhere. You'll get mu bunny reference when you take his class. TAKE THE CLASS!!
Teague is a great teacher. Be warned though you must be focused, he won't make it easy. He will be there to help you though every step of the way. Teague cares about his students and has high expectations for them. If you are serious about this line of work and want a great teacher and you want to learn, this is the guy. My favorite teacher yet.
Teague should just teach every Psychology and Sociology class at WCC. If I could, I would take all my classes with him. Best teacher I have ever had at WCC.
Great Professor, shares his first hand knowledge of the field. If you come to class and pay attention then you will do fine. I would recommend Teague to anyone who needs to take these classes. I have learned so much!
I have taken Teague for just about ALL my HSW classes. He is rough at first but as long as you pay attention and klisten you will pass his class. Watch out for his sense of humor. He is fair, cares about the success of his students and is willing to listen and help as long as you are honest with him. and he is HOTTTTTTT! but off the market :(
He just read right off the power point and gives you loads of notes. He's so boring, but he's such an easy teacher. Be prepared for hour long presentations.
I love Teague. He is very straight to the point and gives it to you like it is. He doesn't sugar coat and really cares about his profession and it shows in everything he does. I have taken a couple of his classes and have another one starting in a couple days. I will continue to take as many classes with him as possible. I highly recommend him!!
All he does is read off of a powerpoint the ENTIRE time. The notes arent on blackboard either so you MUST go to class. i didnt like his style of teaching but others might. he is VERY straight to the point and if you pay attention, youll be fine.
Group Dynamics is HARD. It teaches you more about life and dealing with people than anything else. He will make himself available at the end of class, so take advantage of it and ask questions, don't assume!! Hardest class I've ever taken but the challenge woke me up and helped me grow. If you don't belong in this feild he will weed you out!
I have taken almost every class that Teague teaches. I love him, and he is easy just pay attention. I believe he cares for the students that care, but please believe you will not be able to pull the wool over his eyes. Be prepared to take notes there is no getting around it. I suggest an Ipad and taking pictures of the slides.
Outstanding class
Love Teauge
Anyone who has little or no experience in the Psychology Field HAS TO TAKE HIM! He is a GREAT teacher & Knows his stuff. He Gives you a great perspective of how its going to be & prepares you!!!
Teague is awesome and smart and ( hot) great professor will be taking as many classes as I can with him
Teague is one of the best professors I have ever had. Not only is he easy on the eyes, he is someone that really enjoys teaching! But, be mindful, Teague is one to spot the bad apples of the bunch and does not tolerate laziness or excuses. If it were not for such a great teacher, I would not be as well prepared for the field of human service.
THE BVEST TEACHER EVER, SCARY AT FIRST BUT THE BEST TEACHER, I LEARNED SO MUCH FROM HIM I WISH HE TAUGHT MORE CLASSES!
This man is a straight 10. The epitime of success, upon graduating from Queen's Commerce, Will Teague took the unconventional path to glory and is now a professor killin it.
You will feel well prepared to work in human services taking Teague's classes. He is real life with a mix of lessons. Best teacher I've ever had. Took as many of his classes I could. HSW230 is a breeze, but be ready to work hard for your grade in his other classes, take his class and actually learn instead of going for the easy A professors.
I was looking forward to this class because of the great rating he got. Horrible teacher with an ego. Does a lot of yelling and talking about unrelated material. I leaned nothing. He talks a lot about how hard is to be a social worker, but he is not even in the field, he's a LLP. He yells at people for yawning. Too much ego. Not enough learning.
I really adore Teague. He is an outstanding teacher full of wisdom. Though he is a psychology major, his knowledge of social work is extensive. He keeps you up to date on current events affecting the field. He prepares you mentally for what this field will require of you. He's a little rough around the edges, but the greatest teacher I ever had.
Amazing Prof! Tons of real life examples, always kept us up to date on current events, encourages social activism. Helps many students through personal issues as well. ALWAYS available to answer questions. Tough class but show up and work well with your group and you will do fine!
Probably the best teacher I have ever had. Has so much knowledge about the field and has so much to share. Actually looked forward to going to class every week because they were so interesting. I would definately recommend for anyone going into the Social Work field!
Teague is amazing very down to earth. he does yell a lot but that is just the way he is. amazing prof and really knows his stuff.
Gives the military vibe the first day of class, not really my cup of tea- but I am GLAD I didn't switch out. He has a lot to offer. Tangents do occur, but he gets the class involved in discussion and by doing so creates a community for social work students to strive to continue to build. I will take all classes he offers while pursing my degree.
AMAZING TEACHER YOU WILL BE INSPIRED! He gives a real life perspective on the field and is THE BEST teacher out there. Down to earth, realistic, hard ass, warm, logical, and you will get an A yet will learn SO MUCH! Will let you see if you really want to be in this field or not!!!
I don't know why people like this guy as a professor. Teachers are supposed to help their students grow in the subject and understand if the field is right for them. He does none of these things. He enjoys torturing students with horror stories and telling us that we probably won't make in in the field. I would strongly urge you to stay away!
Teague is AWESOME!
Teague is the best teacher I have ever had. He is extremely knowledgeable in many different areas. He is very open to questions and wants to make sure that you understand all of the material. He is willing to help you in any possible way that he can. He does not take any excuses. If you pay attention, it's an easy A. And just don't yawn.
I have never had a favorite professor nor have I ever been inspired by one. Teague is just that. My favorite professor and biggest inspiration educational wise. They broke the mold when they made him. I have taken him more than once and I look forward to his class. There are a lot of notes, easy to pass tests as long as you take notes.
Best professor every. I will take all the HSW classes he TEACH. He is a big teddy bear after the first day. Great class and funny stories.
Teague is the best professor ever. I can honestly say that he has inspired me to go further in this career and in all of my future endeavors. He genuinely cares about his students and will do anything to help them succeed. Students may be scared at first by his demeanor but after one class with Teague you'll learn to love him. I've had him for 4!
This may have been his first time to teach this class online. The class was easy but I basically taught myself given there was no feedback whatsoever. I was looking forward to some input on assignments but it never came. Psychology is my favorite subject and it was an easy A but that's not the only reason I take courses.
Teague is by far my favorite teacher I have ever taken. He is more than willing to help if you ask him and is extremely inspirational. He tells you how it is and doesn't sugar coat the reality of the field. This class requires A LOT of work, but it is an experience that you can carry with you. The hard work def pays off!
1: You will rarely get out on time, as he does not care about your time. 2: He does not keep the flow of his lectures on track, so get ready for 3 tests in the last 2 weeks of class. This class is open discussion heavy, and everyone with a sob story gets to share. That doesn't leave a lot of time for actual learning. Loves to talk about himself.
This is my second class with Teague. He is an awesome teacher. He does not go just off of the text book but gives you real life experience. He gives you the reality of the field, and does not give just boring power points or text books like most teachers. Definitely would recommend to anyone going into social work.
Teague is awesome. This was the first class I had with him and on the first day I was wondering what I had gotten myself into. As the semester went on I realized just how smart this man was. He has so much real life experience that it would be hard not to learn from him. I will definitely take more classes with him.
Once you get past the first day and realize how experienced he is, the class is awesome! He is fun and challenges you in ways you would never expect! Have fun with your group though! As long as you do your part, you will do good.
Amazing teacher! I have taken a few of his classes and he is very knowledgeable about all of his classes. He is also a very caring and down to earth.
Took his intro to sexuality course. I would highly recommend to everyone, there is so much more to sex education than just sex, all of society ties in. A really fun course and everyone could stand to learn more about sex right?
Class discussion goes on far too long and nothing get accomplished. Text was 15 chapters. We got through only three. I felt like I learned nothing. Class was extremely disorganized.
Great teacher!
Love this class, the binder work is VERY HARD, but he is a great teacher
really enjoyed the class. really good information received.
Doesmt care if you fail, closes exam time early so you can't take exam. Dissrespectful, rude, takes 3 days to email back, this dude is a joke, don't waste your time!
Very inspirational! Dont yawn!!
Teague is inspiring. His love for the social work field is evident. His classes are NOT hard if you GO TO THE LECTURES and do your READINGS. the Binder project is hard mostly because it's group work. Advice: Finish it early and let him take a look at it, he has no problem letting you know what he wants added to it. Loved this teacher.
Great teacher if you don't mind his exam style. He has a very unique style of teaching. Exam's aren't very difficult but make sure you pay attention to what the questions and question numbers say! Overall, good teacher and has a lot of stories that are interesting. also DON'T YAWN! and DON'T BE LATE FOR EXAMS OR ASSIGNMENTS DUE!!!!!
If you think you want to go into social worker or psychology you need to take his class. It's so stressful, but you will know by the end of semester if you can handle this field! He's tough for the purpose of wanting students to succeed and know if this is really the field for them!!
Hes inspirational and passionate about what he does. His exams and his final projects can be difficult. Just study hard and youll be fine. He is a tough grader so make sure you do your best with the final projects.
The class was long, but if you like organization and research and working with people this class isn't bad. He goes on super long rants at the beginning of class, most of the time they are somewhat relevant to social work. Don't let his intimidation bring you down. Thank you Teague for being another factorinmaking me realize Social Work isnt for me
I enjoy his humor and honesty but he does not control class discussions. We don't make it through chapters because people are asking irrelevant questions and sharing stories, wasting learning time. He can politely ask students to wait until the end of class to ask general questions. Most times the questions dont fit the discussion at the moment.
Displeased with the lack of control over class discussion. He does not follow his schedule and even jokes about how far behind he is in the curriculum. He is a cool guy but I am there to learn not be entertained. He needs to find balance between teaching and story telling. Put more focus on the material please. His reviews are nonsense, literally.
Teague is an amazing teacher. He gives you realistic info that you will more than likely face in the HSW world. Easy class but DO NOT YAWN!!!!
Listen, this is the hardest class I've taken thus far between WCC and EMU both but seriously it's worth it. He will put you with people (for your group) that you will have a hard time working with and force you to figure it out. His grading is hard but fair. Make sure that you utilize his office hours and have him look at your project.
Terrifying when he screams and I do mean screams at people if they yawn. The work expected for this class is what is required in Master Level classes. He doesn't allow you to keep your work and he keeps them which makes me wonder if he is using student's binder work in his own groups. Don't take him especially if you have been the victim of trauma.
I love professor Teague he's tough but fair. Always willing to help you out as long as you put forth the effort. I had him for family, internship, Group, and currently taking treatment of addiction. If you want someone to give you the real deal and push you to be your best... he's your guy
I took many classes with him and got good grades so I'm not being spiteful. He is needlessly mean, intimidating, and loud which is disrespectful to students and other teachers. Many people like him in a creepy way, he tries to convince you only he can teach you this stuff but once you leave and go to a better college you realize how terrible he is.
I'm always shocked to hear other students praise him as a teacher, and looking at the reviews here I realized something, it's basically stockholm syndrome. And that is not a joke. People like and respect him the way people like and respect their abuser. It's sick. I feel especially bad for the young students.
People see a lot of value in the way Teague teaches. Others acknowledge that he's tough but it's the fact that this tough act is completely unnecessary that bothers me. He purposely creates a hostile learning environment. I laughed at his jokes, took the classes and graduated, but really, I don't trust him, I don't like him, and I don't respect him
Teague has been a great recourse on helping me achieve my academic goals and getting me on track to become a social worker. He cares about his students and tries his best to prepare them for a tough field. Everything he does has a purpose. His teaching style is different but I learned so many valuable things from his classes.
Teague is the exact opposite of what most people want in a college professor. Most people want to pass with a easy A have a easy teacher. Although Teagues classes aren't terribly difficult he teachers you what you need to know. He does not sugar coat anything because the real world is not sugar coated. I respect the hell out of Teague.
This is class is a joke. Instructor gives 0 feedback and 0 communication with the class . There is little to no material to review for the quizzes and test. There isnt any outlines or guides. The final exam includes little content learned from the course and is loaded with questions from across a specific program and mental health training.
Teague is a great teacher who will challenge you in every way. He is not a bully or unfair at all. He is a really good teacher who makes sure you know the content inside and out. I will take him again because if you want to learn he will provide that. I highly recommend him unless you have medical condition where can't be scared or startled.
I did group online, he was very lenient because of the COVID situation and this class was online now. It is hard because there's only a few things you're graded on and if your group isn't very helpful and don't want to do the work than it's going to be frustrating.
Teague is a mandatory teacher. I think this is a poor decision on the College's behalf as not all students will gain from Teague's teaching style. I personally enjoyed his lectures and sense of humor, however, he can easily trail off topic. I strive on structure and a well followed syllabus, so inevitably I was frustrated a lot of times.
This was my first time with Teague, I was nervous because of the mixed feedback. However, I thoroughly enjoy how he teaches and the stories he has are relevant. I did the 6 week summer course, easy breezy. Also am taking him for HSW230. If this wasn't my last semester at WCC, would definitely take again.
Turn in the assignments and you'll be fine. Grading is done pretty easily, feedback is given when necessary, exams are straight forward. Usually just a reading, lecture, and assignment or discussion board each week. Exams are every couple of weeks. This was a great class for someone interested in psychology!
I survived Teague! Seriously the Groups class was Masters level learning. Get the text book and read it...Teague wants students to realize that the field of Social Work is not always easy. I like his style of teaching-fair yet tough. He expects you show up and ready for anything. Groups class was eye opening and wonderful.
Mr. Teague is a mixed bag w/ me. One VERY odd "rule" is you are NOT allowed to yawn. This is the one thing I don't understand because it's not that yawning is a rude remark. People yawn because the body is lacking oxygen. I got called out for yawning in class. At that point I dropped the class. He seemed cool but the yawning rule was a dealbreaker.
He comes off very strong, but he is a great teacher! He uses a more real life approach to his teachings which make it super interesting.
Teague is a professor that is going to seem scary, and he does this on purpose. He will be loud, he will stop class to point out someone yawning, he will put you on the spot, but I think it works! I initially thought my group would get me through Teague, but Teague helped me get through the group. If you go to office hours, you'll be fine.
Teague is the best. I've taken him for numerous classes. His whole bit is acting like a drill sergeant on the first day of class to scare those who aren't serious about Social Work out, lol. He can be strict, and intimidating, but is genuinely such a kind and caring person. HE IS FUN! Just take notes and you will do great :) he makes it easy.
Teague's classes are engaging. He really excels in fostering group discussions. He encourages class participation by asking thought provoking questions. He is not one to mince words but is also very funny. He brings real life experience to the classroom and allots time for open discussion. I recommend taking at least one class with Teague.
I have heard many things regarding professor Teague, however no one mentioned how his lectures showed no emotion and are old recordings. He rarely gave feedback and when he did it had no grammar and made no sense. This class had some parts that were outdated, 10 year old articles. Disappointed that he is one of the 2 full time HSW professors.
I took a partial (long story) virtual class and an online class with Teague. This is a class and instructor I will forever remember. Great lectures, fantastic communication and I would definitely take more classes of his. You won't be disappointed!
I did not have to reach out to Professor Teague as everything was straight forward. I would take the course again but there was a slight hick up with the syllabus which wasn't a big deal but I did want to mention it in case. He's pretty easy going but does not provide feedback for work which was fine with me.
I do not think Professor will Teague psychology class is very effective. Most learning comes from the book, feedback is limited, the curriculum is unclear, and the videos are outdated. I suggest reading a lifespan psychology textbook independently for better learning.
