Reviews of professor Alyssa Maldonado-Estrada

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Maldonado is the reason I became a Religion major. She is so kind and will answer any question that you have with enthusiasm. I have never met a person as kind and understanding as she is. If you are a student at K, take her class. You will not regret it. (Classes are reading heavy but you can get by without reading the material if need be).

Be ready to read around 100-150 pages a night. The homework is not hard, but the amount of work is excessive. Very liberal art minded class. You will not know your grade until the end of the term. Very little room to make mistakes and get points back. Will get feedback halfway through the term and that is it. Homework gets feedback once.

The Bad Religion Course is one you need to take if you go to K. Prof Maldonado lays out the course in detail on the first day, so there are no surprises. Her grading criteria is on the syllabus, and she is very accessible if you need help or even just want to talk. Her lectures are very thorough + interesting. She is also very fashionable!
