Rhea Eskew professor reviews and ratings: 3.28/5 from 67 student reviews at Northeastern. TRACE + RateMyProfessor + Reddit.
Professor Eskew was really confusing and would often skip back and forth between topics. Sometimes, he would talk for ten minutes before saying he was incorrect or had been misleading. It was very frustrating to take lecture notes. I relied on the book heavily. He gives extra-credit, but doesn't say how much they will be worth until the end.PSYC3452 2015-11-23 12:58:05 +0000 UTC
Very knowledgable on the subject but doesn't communicate info clearly at ALL. Goes far into detail during lecture. It's impossible to distinguish what is testable material without a study guide for exams. I often wonder if I completely missed a prereq for this course. I'll take nothing away from this course besides an unreasonable amount of stress.PSYC452 2011-12-01 11:28:11 +0000 UTC
I was panicking because Statistics is a required course.. and I was scared because math has never been a strong point of mine.Well, Prof Eskew really used a wonderful approach... giving us as much help as we needed to grasp the material. He really saved the course for me.. and, I learned quite a lot of Statistics!STAT101 2009-04-16 23:55:13 +0000 UTC
You need to do your homework if stats is not your thing but Rhea Eskew is awesome at making sense of what is a very confussing subject. Very nice guy.PSYU320 2007-01-05 22:03:24 +0000 UTC
One of the harder psych classes, but still pretty easy. I had no problem with his tests.SENSANDPERCEP 2006-05-06 23:51:02 +0000 UTC
terrible teacher, never had an answer to your questions. he would just reword your question and ask it again. Also his tests were hard and unfair, he doesn't try to help you.PSY452 2006-04-18 13:25:38 +0000 UTC
Knows his stuff. Tests are hard and a little unfair, but you'll learn a lot. Also, this class is more optometry thah Sensation + Perception. You won't learn anything about touch, taste.SENSPERCEP 2006-04-06 16:02:42 +0000 UTC
Totally awesome.U452 2006-04-05 18:06:18 +0000 UTC
Nice guy, but I hated these classes. Stat 1 I got a B and understood it fairly well. Stat 2? Forget it. LOLSTAT1AMP2 2005-10-22 07:10:43 +0000 UTC
my absolute favorite teacher ever at NU, was my advisor too--he kicks assPERCEPTION 2005-10-06 15:53:57 +0000 UTC
Hard Class. Hard Tests. Alot of reading. Good teacher though but should make work load lighter.SENSATIONANDP 2005-07-26 20:53:08 +0000 UTC
He makes statistics easy and interesting by applying it to real-life situations. He makes you see how you can actually use the knowledge you gain in this class. His homework assignments are limited and extremely helpful to study for the quizzes with.PSYU320 2004-10-19 16:25:44 +0000 UTC
Not an easy class b/c it's very scientific. He hands out a study guide before the 2 tests & final. Hard to follow his lectures and take notesPSY452 2004-05-09 10:46:23 +0000 UTC
