Tell us about your professors.

Christopher

They are all very helpful and will go beyond measures to help students

Dee

I've had some really great professors who aren't afraid to share their experience with students. This gives us a realistic idea of what we're getting into once we graduate.

Stephanie

Every professor I have had has been extremely helpful and very responsive to any questions I may have.

Lisa

Kaplan University Professors are very nice. They love teaching and are only an e-mail away to answer to your latest question. Professors have great response time for e-mails. They also hold regular office hours on AIM.

Beverly

The professors that I have for the course are very fair, strick, and tough but that is what I like about the Professors in order to get the learning that we need, they care about our learning and ability to learn.

Katherine

They are professors just like at any other school. The only difference is that I have never met them in person. Many of the professors I have had are willing to give out their personal phone numbers so that you can contact them with any personal problems and/or questions that you may have about the course content. All of the professors I have had have been flexible on assignment deadlines. They understand that you have a life outside of the online schooling. A large portion of the Kaplan Online students have jobs as well as families that they look after on a daily basis, and the Kaplan University Online professors understand this! They are willing to work with you as long as you ask them for their help.

Since the course is online, it is more flexible for the professor. All of my professors worked other jobs, whether it be research or clinical. This gave them the perspective of what the student's future career might be. It helped to get real life examples, so we know what to expect when we start our careers. Most of the professors are very helpful and easy to reach. Just as with any school, there are a few teachers that I did not like. The problem with graduate courses is that there are not many teachers to choose from because at most the class was offered by two different professors. So sometimes you just have to learn what the teachers are looking for in your work, and adapt your work to fit their guidelines. This is a helpful lesson, because you are not always going to like your bosses, but it is important to be resectful and complete the work how your boss wants it.

My professors thus far have been some of the best and most understanding people I have met in a long time. They are very wiliing to work within the limitation my cerebral palsy. They are very helpful when i don't understand somthing I can contact them any time I need help. Needless to say they know a lot about what they teach.
