Reviews of professor Rebecca Makas

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Honestly just a horrible professor. Provides horrible feedback on writing assignments and doesn't allow for any type of correction for simple mistakes. Super sarcastic in class and makes participation difficult. It always seems as if she is judging you and provides an uninhabitable learning environment.

I really enjoyed having her this past semester. You do a lot of essay prep before you actually write and you get to meet with her to go over essay ideas and ask questions. Theres a decent amount of reading but if you stay on top of it and participate in class you will be fine. The classroom had a good environment and overall she was great

I took her for both ancients and moderns and ancients was terrible. Lots of papers and not great feedback. Moderns got better but she's just not relatable and made the class hard to enjoy. She does really care about the class but she just makes it too hard.

She's good.  Classes can sometimes be awkward or passive aggressive but the workload is easy and she's  pretty nice. Sometimes she grades the essays toughly but as long as you show up and participate its not hard to get an A- with an easy workload too

I think that Professor gets a bad wrap for no reason at all. I really enjoyed having her as my moderns teacher as she gave great feedback on essays. I really liked her provisional grading process for the overall grade at the end of the semester. She is very open to all opinions and the class atmosphere is very comfortable.

She is a very fair grader and very understanding about deadline flexibility. Her writing workshops drastically improved my writing skills and she fostered a really great environment in class discussions.
