Reviews of professor Sahara Ibarra

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Sahara is not as bad as the other people make her seem. Yes she is a tough grader and yes her lectures are very long. It is because she is just passionate about teaching. This is not for the people who are expecting an easy online A. You will have to read, take notes, and study. If you cannot do this you should not be in college.

Be prepared to work your tail off. She is a nice person, but the workload is ridiculous and with videos from other professors to watch. A lot of short answer questions on tests and it takes forever to get graded, so you are sitting with a failing grade for a while. Also, no feedback on short answers either for improvement. HUGE project at end too.

Had her for 8 week GEOL 1403 online. There are lab assignments and lecture notes that you have to turn in for each chapter. Online lectures are very easy to understand. Each week she hosts WebX meetings to go over anything you need. There are 3 tests that aren't hard if you study for them. She also offers extra credit and bonus points towards exams

1 lecture/week with handwritten notes and a lab investigation. This class literally requires the bare minimum and the professor was so helpful! I took the class online and she is very lenient with deadlines and exams are easy as long as your keeping up with weekly quizzes. Easy A.
