Reviews of professor Sonia De La Cruz

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Honestly, worst class I took in my time at UW. For a 200 level class she grades as if she is teaching 400-500 level classes. And because the class is virtual, that made this harder in a lot of cases. Extremely unnecessary requirements for the level of class. Dont waste your time taking this class.

Worst professor I've ever had at UW. Ever. RUN FROM THIS CLASS IF SHE IS TEACHING IT! As an inspired filmmaker, producing a short film sounded great. The professor ruined the experience. The most subjective and unclear grading I've ever received in a course. Her grading on participation was ridiculous. If you're sick and miss a class you're screwed

I do not understand the criticism of this professor. She was very clear about her expectations, in addition to being a very fair grader. Her pop test came from our weekly readings and her exams were from the class discussions/readings. I did well in her class but then again I never missed class, read, participated in class and studied for tests.

Big essays but little information/ guide given to students. Her instructions are very general, and expects you to understand what she means. Doesnt provide examples, no clear guides, and tough grader. Finals and tests are very subjective. Does not base off PPT or lectures or books. Does not provide examples of topics/subjects/ terms.

I know this was her first class, just wish I knew that before I registered tbh. Class was really disorganized, syllabus changed a lot, answers on quizzes were subjective. I asked how heavy the film production would be and she said we would just be "practicing a few shots," but the entire latter half of the entire quarter was making a film. Waste.

You ask for help and shell act understanding and nice and will be the complete opposite. Grades so toughly and doesnt even explain in detail why. Has unrealistic expectations- all based on mood seems like. Practically wants you to fail, but turns to her failing as a professor anyways. Not very detailed or organized. Confusing and not clear.

She definitely did not do will with grading, same question and same answer for midterm had two different result. And make sure you have to speak in class, or else she will give you a low grade. Her content of her class is more of a 200 level course, and what she said in class does not help with the assignment or test.
