Reviews of professor Rachel McGraw

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor McGraw is one of the best teachers I have had and I feel so lucky to have studied under her. Not only did her lecture style help me learn the material with ease, but her passion for the subject matter was inspirational to me as I learned. Rachel is a truly genuine person who I am glad to have met and hope to study under her again one day.

The classes were very dry and boring. The final was closed book but all other tests in class were open book which made the final super tough, lots of memorization and detail in this course. although she had helpful slides, the class was always behind due to her many examples which made studying for the final way more stressful.

She does not actually teach any concepts, her lectures are a large waste of time of her running through countless examples without ever actually explaining anything. So be prepared to teach yourself linguistics because you won't learn anything from her. Her midterms are insanely unfair, 100 written questions in a 50-minute class.

ridiculously heavy info for a intro-level course, quizzes are doable but the final is atrocious, testing us on stuff we barely covered and things with completely different concept and definitions than we covered in class, never ever take as an elective

Rachel was awesome! Sometimes a little boring cause of the content and it was hard to catch up if I skipped class, but overall it was great! Provides lots of extra resources and examples, explains the concepts well. Was a great prof!

It was great! There were lots of resources and the forums were always buzzing. If you do well with online learning, Id recommend it!
