Mr. Gallagher is a calm and relaxed man, and is humorous and casual in his classroom. He gives lectures and assigns a lot of group work. He's not strict on grading unless it's a test and is very forgiving regarding late work. He likes to interact with his students while teaching and has fun classes with interesting discussions. Not too keen on the hefty amount of work he gives, which usually isn't effective or geared towards real learning, understanding, and memorization because he just takes most of his assignments from the standard school curriculum instead of creating his own material for the class which he can tailor for effectiveness. Very chill and cool guy who likes to laugh with his students, in-class experience isn't stressful besides for DBQs and the load of work you get. He's kind of an "every person for themself" type of guy, and I think he's super lax with his grading because he wants it to be OUR responsibility to take the initiative to actually study and want to learn ourselves (just my observation). Gallagher is pretty great!
