Reviews of professor Daniella Mascarenhas

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Honestly, super boring class, but she was a really fair/easy grader, and didn't expect too much from the class. Also one of the more understanding and caring professors I've had. If you have a problem or need help, reach out to her. She's very kind, helpful, and understanding. Even though the lectures are pretty boring, it's not a super hard class.

Dr. Mascarenhas is extremely specific, and demoralizes even the slightest implication of creativity in your work. She is nitpicky and by the book. So by the book in fact that the atmosphere of the class seems rigid and robotic. She asks us to name one positive thing each class but even that seems forced and awkward.

Her lectures are not boring like the other comments say (people who said that are ignorant). She is very nice and open to any feedback or even if you just want to chat. She is very knowledgeable and passionate about her work. The work is not hard, and is lenient when grading.

She is very nice but do yourself a favor and RUN. This class is full of readings, which wouldnt be so bad if her readings werent 30-60 pages each. Her class is so boring and I honestly cannot wait to get through this. Im miserable. Prayers please.

Professor Mascarenhas is probably one of the best professors I've had at AU. Class is interesting, homework and test grading is very fair, and its interesting to get to hear two sides of an issue in her class without it devolving into a flame-war. Put a decent amount of effort into her class and you will get a good grade.
