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!

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.
