Reviews of professor Nicholas Lerma

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Lerma was great and super relaxed. He's very understanding and wants his students to do well in the class. There is a group presentation, but it was very easy and he didn't grade hard at all. There are 3 total exams and the questions are based off study guides that he gives us. He gave interesting examples and shared his experiences.

Did not like this class, I really feel like I didn't learn much at all. I think he changed the course a lot this semester and was not very organized with assignments, especially the take home exams. There is no reason a take home exam should take multiple hours to complete, considering we took an in class exam as well.

Professor Lerma is super nice but was not my favorite professor. He is very knowledgable but lectures were boring and pretty much repeating the readings. In class exams were okay but take home exams took way too much effort for the amount of points given. There were questions asked that we never talked about in class and took hours to complete.

Also did not feel like i learned much. Topics were interesting though and helped me guide what my career might be with certain populations. Lerma isnt the best at wording question and relaying some information but he tries his best and is understanding.

Lerma is super nice and clearly knows what he's talking about, but isn't great at relaying information to students. Lectures are hard to pay attention to. Exams had questions that were really ambiguous and didn't make sense, or things we never discussed in class. Quizzes were 5q based off multiple readings, impossible to know what he would ask.
