Vince is a crazy old man who is extremely passionate about teaching. He wants the best for all of his students and really believes in everyone. There are a lot of projects so be prepared to spend some serious cash in this class. The work load is a lot but its a level 400 class so it is expected. Overall, he's fair and knowledgable.

Vince is a wonderful professor. He is so invested in your success. He pushes you to find what you are capable of, and always finds a positive spin on your work. He can be a little scattered but it only adds to his charm. I was worried about 427 before I took the class, and I would highly recommend taking it with Vince.

So I don't usually write reviews for anything unless I believe something that was said is completely off. Vince is very laid back, caring and inspirational. He does read through your work and tries to give feedback to help you get into the teaching program which is the point of the class. Take him he is a great professor.

Honestly, he's such a mess. Nothing is clear in regards to the assignments and grading. Honestly, I just think he gives out grades without reading anything. He comes off as rude and questions your intelligence. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

The greatest professor I have had at MSU so far. He truly is one of those professors who cares about his students succeeding. The class mostly consists of talking with peers and Vince about experiences. He doesn't really give work, and when he does, he will help you with it and it is easy. Sweetest most caring professor.

Not many students have the opportunity to say that a professor has truly made a difference in their lives. However after having taken Vince's class, I can say he was truly the greatest professor I have even have the privilege of taking. He has an incredible passion for teaching and truly has a deep care and love for his students. Simply amazing.

Vince is one of the best professors at MSU. He made me realize why I want to be a teacher and he is an example of a wonderful one. He is passionate, motivating, kind, understanding, funny, and much more. He truly cares about his students and that is one of the most important things a teacher can do. I will really miss both him and his class.

Vince is extremely knowledgeable and his main goal is to help you get into the teacher education program. He makes his classroom feel like a community, and treats his students as if they were his own children. Take this class if you are passionate about becoming a teacher. I wish I could take his class again next semester.

Comment:

Legit caring and cool teacher however his style was not to my taste. He's constantly putting you into little group work and it gets confusing and after a while stupid and useless. Repeats information over to the point of it being annoying. Honestly, most of the course is teaching you common sense which if you don't already know, that's sad.

Vince was certainly the best professor I had at MSU. The most valuable aspect of this course was that he encourages creativity in your lesson planning, a skill which will of course serve you well in your student teaching and beyond. A mustmustmust take!

He was amazing. He comes off rude and can be kind of scary but he really connects you to teaching and can tell instantly if you are really in the class to be a teacher or not. He wants you to succeed and goes beyond the levels he is supposed to to make sure that you are prepared for the future education classes and your life time career.

Comment:

Vince is a funny, energetic professor who knows a lot about teaching. I'm almost done with his class and I'm still kind of unsure what the class itself was about, and that's not necessarily a knock on him. We just covered a huge amount of information, and most of it was dispensed in a very informal lecture style. Awesome teacher, great guy!
