RateMyProfessors - Grade Your Professors
Curious about the professor you have chosen for this term? Wish you had known more about past college or university professors? RateMyProfessors.com is a friendly web service that invites students to grade their teachers.Currently schools can be found in nine different countries: United States, Canada, England, Ireland, Australia, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales, and New Zealand. Once the country is selected, the user is prompted to select their State/Province.
I selected United States Florida and was quickly provided with a long list of schools. The school ID is also listed along with the school’s name and city in which it is located. As soon as I select a school, I am presented with a huge list of professors that have been rated by other students. I quickly taped CTRL+F in my Firefox web browser and threw in my favorite professor’s name.
Each professor has his/her own page. The page consists of:
- Total number of ratings
- Average Easiness
- Average Helpfulness
- Average Clarity
- Hotness Total
- Overall Quality
Along with this information, students are also given a soap box to explain in their own words their experience with the professor in question.
RateMyProfessors.com is a great service for those of us who are still in school. Registration is not needed to view professor’s ratings so head on over and give it a try. Once you have experienced the service, feel free to leave your comments with us.

“provided with a large [long] list of school [schools]”
“…City it is located in” […city in which it is located]
“each professor has their own…” “has his/her own…”
“Totle number of rating” [Total number of ratings”
“those of us that are still in school” [those of us who are still in school]
Need I say more? With the level of scholarship, should we pay any attention whatsoever to these ratings?!

I do appreciate your help in pointing out grammatical errors in my writing, unless of course, your intentions are to be sarcastic or unprofessional. I believe the only way to improve my English writing is to practice, practice, and practice thus why Rumboatd.com exists.
Maybe you’ll return often and point out locations where I can improve? I would greatly appreciate the help. You may contact me personally via the ‘Contact’ link on top of the page.
Well, that concludes my reply. I hear that you make a mighty good brownie, maybe one day you can send a batch of brownies over. heh
Au revoir Dr. Moore.
