Reviews of professor Beatriz Padilla

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I took this class to satisfy a credit for my major and I made it to the end and I still cannot tell you what I have learned throughout the semester. Her accent is thick and the class did not seem to relate to sociology whatsoever. If you can, avoid this class.

This professor has a lot of knowledge mixed with opinions. If you agree with her viewpoint of things you will do fine. She is very lenient toward due dates and student issues. Respect is her thing so make sure to not interrupt her or others. If you want an A make sure to do the readings before class.

she's passionate and cares for her students, but you'll have a hard time keeping up in the class. she expects you to read long chapters before every lecture, even tho her ppts literally copy right from the book. two separate group projects. gave us 15 minutes for a 20 question exam. blamed students for tech issues and did not record lectures.

She's cool and understanding, a little hard to understand but she's willing to help if you just communicate the issue

Overall, professor Padilla is a good teacher however, she's a very tough grader. If you ask questions in class or email her she will do her best to help however, the hardest part of the course was the group work. Doing well in the course will be impossible if your group members aren't participating or composing weak work.
