Reviews of professor Heloisa Alves

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
This class is an easy A as long as you show up. Homework that you can keep completing until you reach a desired grade, and straightforward tests. This is a true 101 class, in my opinion. However, you have to show up! She allows 3 absences then deducts 10 points off of your final grade for each.

Professor Alves is very knowledgeable about what she teaches. Her lectures are amazing, she knows what areas students need to focus on to be successful. Although this class was an easy A, there were a lot of things you can learn from her class. She's very easy-going and funny

Dr. Alves is the best professor by far in the psychology department. All of the quizzes and exams are online. There are two writing assignments throughout the semester and they are easy. She tells you what she is looking for and is easy to access outside of class. She really cares about her students. Definitely take the chance to get to know her!

This was the professor's first time teaching this class, and she went a little overboard on the homework because of this it feels like. She is very nice and can be funny, but also has very unclear grading/formatting criteria. This isn't that much of a problem though because she is a very easy grader.

I took Dr. Alves for research methods Fall '18 & loved her! This was her first year teaching and rocked it. The class itself is a lot of work as all research methods are. She goes above and beyond to make sure your group is collecting data and edits sections of the final paper. There will be 2 short essays, 1 test & a semester group project/paper.
