Class of 2021

Jul 28, 2020

I think that Mr. Beckman would make a wonderful teacher during a 5 month course, however, considering the impact that COVID-19 had on our ability to attend class, we were presented with a challenge that caused a barrier with communication, which is very risky during a high-speed 3 week course. This was my biggest issue. Just for future references, I think he should explain more about what he wants so to eliminate confusion as well as respond to desperate emails!! I think these will do fine to bring up the class average. He really is a good teacher, but I will do so to quote the man "communication will get you places" (Beckman 2020). Thank you.
