Great teacher,maybe little hard but real professor to have in your first economic courses because he just makes you to love it.
Crouch is not all that bad, I actually find him funny and very clear. Just keep up with the readings and the test questions will be easily answerable.
He is one of the best econ professors on campus. If you are scared of going to class, just take CLAS. His tests are not hard as long as you study for the essay questions. He goes over all the essays questions in class...repeatedly. So if you want to learn something about econ and do not want to read, his classes will be the best choice.
you have to go to lecture in order to know the answers to the essay questions. if u get the essay wrong u fail the test. kinda stressful.
Ridiculously hard class. Do not take it. ANY other Econ professor would be better.
Ridiculously hard class. Avoid Crouch at all costs. I'm serious.
Hard Class.
he's a funny chap. your entire grade over the quarter is based on 30 mc and 2 essays. if you fail the essay, you fail midterm and final. a lot of pressure, which is why i learned a lot but he isn't too terribly helpful or interested in the students...like most prof's.
tough class.Questions r tricky.Writing is terrible!He calls on kids in class and if u get answer wrong he makes fun of u.Only uses a reader.its very helpful so read it!midterm/final consist of essay and 15 MC.if u fail essay u fail the test so be sure to study essay questions.go to review and do practice tests.hated him @ 1st but learned 2 like him
I wish Crouch would stay.... I want to take more classes with him.. He is a legend.. *sigh
he is awesome! those who complain about his teaching skills and his expectaions of you do not know what a good challenge or education is! Go back to high school!
By far one of the sexiest teachers Here at UCSB let me tell you... He is a little hard to follow but pay attention and study and you'll be fine... BUTT nice is kinda not in his vocabulary... Try not to fall asleep I did 1 time and was told in front of everyone basically I'm worthless... if its not you its kinda funny haha well at least I'm famous
he's tough!

hard to understand him, he talks fast and his writing is illegible. i skipped out on most of the lectures but when he talks about the essay questions GO! i did all the multiple choice questions from the reader (thats the only text he follows) and went to 4 lectures and studied the essay questions like mad.

this guy is very fast. he doesn't pause to let you copy what he has written on the overhead, and his handwriting is usually illegible anyways. Tutoring helped me pass this class, not the lectures.
Crazy old Brit, pretty straight forward lectures but the reader is horrible. Class wasn't hard if you read along with the lectures. Don't sit in front and wear bright colors if you do not want to get asked a question.
Total hard ass. Sweet hair.
Mr. Crouch slurs and rambles on throughout his lecture... very hard to understand. Extremely messy writing. Cannot follow what he is talking about. Very rude to students. Told one student she was "stupid" in front of the entire lecture. While I'm sure he is knowledgable on the subject I would avoid him if possible.
Hilarious. Great teacher. If you follow his simple instructions you will learn quite easily. Every single one of his political opinions was hilarious. And mostly right. TAKE A THIRTY SECOND BREAK.
Take this guy during the summer; in smaller classes, he tells entertaining stories about his RAF days and what they eat in Scotland. His appreciation of Keynes is beyond me, but at least he doesn't use (ugh) PowerPoint.
