Reviews of professor Isabel Fernandez Puentes

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
I don't know if I'm stupid, am not an ECE major, or if it was the professor, but I put quite a bit of effort into this class and took away literally nothing from it. Exams and homeworks were extremely difficult and with low averages. Hate the "flipped classroom" model. At least the final was take home. Lab was cool.

I thought she did a good job with her lectures and gave lots of extra practice problems for each module that could be used to study. The class had tough homework problems, but I felt they prepared me for the exam. She set lots of TA office hours to help too. She could be hard to access, so I'd recommend using the TAs and starting HW early.

Makes 3 credit like 6 credit.
And the grading on midterm are so tough

The flipped classroom model sucks and doesn't care if watching 7 15 min lectures is convenient or not. She thinks her exams are like the practice problems, but you could find maybe one problem in the homeworks/lectures that are like the exam problems. She claimed in class she teaches us using so many examples but she does not. good luck with her.

This class is not an easy A, and you'll need to put in a lot of effort into homeworks and exam prep to pull it off. However, some of the reviews on here aren't fair. The class (particularly the second half) has some tough content, but Dr. Fernandez's lecture videos are very efficient and example-based. Go to office hours when you're stuck.
