Reviews of professor Yolanda Vasquez-Salgado

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
This professor is mediocre. I believe I took her during her first semester teaching so things weren't as clear as they could have been. Half of our semester got put online due to COVID-19 and I found that her test questions were very unclear. Depending on how you read the question, potentially all of the answers could have been correct.

Dr. Vasquez-Salgado's lectures are amazing! She is very welcoming and is a caring professor who's priority is that her students learn the material and learn. Her homework assignments are fun and she challenges her students to reflect on personal experiences. She offers extra credit :-) She's great!

TAKE HER FOR PSYCH 313! I wish she taught other psych classes, she's so caring and easy! She uploads all the lectures on canvas, watch and take notes on ur own, tests based on lectures and you watch documentaries and do discissions based on them! She offers a bunch of extra credit zoom sessions to discuss documentaries and drops your lowest test!!

I took her during the COVID 19 crisis, the pandemic saved me from failing this class. She is a kind lady and she means well but she contradicts herself a lot. I would recommend taking her through an online course, but in person she would confuse everyone in the class and not elaborate on certain things she would later include in the test.

Fairly easy class. There were 4 film reflections, 4 exams (cumulative final you won't have to take if you make grades you're happy with on the first 3), and 10 lecture reflections. All relatively easy. She has links to youtube lectures to help you answer test questions too. Her ppts are lacking in content though, so the book came in handy too.
