CollegeProfessor Whitehead is extremely passionate and competent. He cares a lot about his students and he is very dedicated to helping his students do better on their assignments. Lectures are thorough (however they are pretty dense and he moves fast) but he is very accessible outside of class and very helpful during office hours.
Actually such an amazing professor, hands down one of the best professors here at UCSB. Use your TA as a resource because that will greatly improve your grade!
A great professor and super accessible if you need help. A lot of group interaction work which is helpful. Very interesting topics and he does an excellent job at lecturing. 10/10 recommend.
he's literally the best professor i've had at UCSB. im not sure what the negative reviews are about, I took both 136A/C & they were all very interesting classes! If you go to study tables there is no way you can fail. He also provides you with all the information you'll need on canvas& give you a time bank of five days to turn in assignments late.
such a chill prof! him and his TA were very kind and were always available to help. attend study tables if you're struggling!!!! it reaaally helped me get through the course. the material was super interesting, but i feel like i only had a better understanding of it because i previously took ling courses so take it if you're interested in that
I took conversational analysis with professor Whitehead, and I really enjoyed this course! It was very interesting material and I will never look at conversations the same way again. The only assignments were four papers, but the guidelines are pretty straightforward and they are very kind graders.
