Dropped my grade by a full letter grade days before end of the semester due to a misunderstanding that he notified me of ~2 months ago, but didn't let me know the reduction of the grade until yesterday. He is very rude and passive aggressive as well and HEAVILY do not recommend him. His class is very easy but I didn't learn a single thing.SLPA1101 2026-04-29 02:19:36 +0000 UTC
Disappointed in this class. Professor is highly unqualified and relies on video content to teach. Grading system is very loose. Would not recommend.SLPA1101 2026-04-29 02:16:56 +0000 UTC
I do now know how he got a job in the first place. Easiest class of all time took 10 percent from my grade a day before grades were due because of an attendance issue from the beginning of the semester.SLPA1101 2026-04-28 17:54:31 +0000 UTC
The previous reviews were right. He enjoys the power trip and control over the students. He's the farthest from understanding and gets very defensive. There is new work uploaded everyday and it's very time consuming. If you want to take his class as an elective I would suggest anything else. Good luck!SLPA1101 2026-04-28 01:26:27 +0000 UTC
With all dear respect, Dr. Peele is not an SLP or Au.D and is not qualified to teach this course. He reads off the slides, relies on videos to teach content, and is oddly aggressive when it comes to in-class participation and quizzes.SLPA1101 2026-04-09 15:22:45 +0000 UTC
Kind until he's not. Seems like a nice guy, but if you make an honest mistake he will get very passive aggressiveSLPA1101 2026-03-14 20:43:06 +0000 UTC
Half the class are non SLPA majors and he clearly tailors the class towards that. Work feels repetitive, boring, and unhelpful especially as an SLPA major.SLPA1101 2026-03-14 20:41:42 +0000 UTC
don't take this prof- his lectures are so long and drawn out, and I never learn anything in his class his tests are tricky and i've asked him for help, and he doesn't respondSLPA1101 2026-03-14 20:41:16 +0000 UTC
Often relies on guest lecturers as he is not qualified to be teaching this class.SLPA1101 2026-03-14 20:40:34 +0000 UTC
Unhelpful explanations, long homeworks, and boring lectures. Would not recommend taking this class.SLPA1101 2026-03-14 20:39:49 +0000 UTC
drops 1/3 of the grades the class is easy but often feels like a jokeSLPA1101 2026-03-14 20:38:39 +0000 UTC
as an slpa major he is not qualified to teach this class. we don't want a researcher!SLPA1101 2026-03-14 20:37:49 +0000 UTC
Easy class ? Super. Good professor? Absolutely not.SLPA1101 2026-03-14 18:32:48 +0000 UTC
incredibly dry professor with little regard for the students, incredibly strict and controlling for no reasonSLPA1101 2026-03-14 18:31:37 +0000 UTC
He's a nice person, but not right to teach this class. As someone with SLPA coursework experience, I found the content surface level and repetitive. Guest speakers came alot but added little value, mostly sharing their career paths rather than useful insights. Never left the class feeling like I learned anything new.SLPA1101 2025-06-18 03:19:04 +0000 UTC
