Reviews of professor Maria Groves

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I really thought this was going to be an extremely boring class, but Maria makes physical geography fun. Shes deeply passionate about what she teaches, and she makes an effort to make sure it means something to you. She was also helpful in giving us tips on how to succeed in college in general. Hardest part of class is the big final project

Prof. Groves' class was a work-heavy, but fascinating one. We had a midterm and a final, but both were open book because she really wanted us to learn the material. The course topic was also relevant and interesting (climate change). She provides extra credit and help wherever you need it.

Overall a pretty good class as far as online classes go. There was just a LOT of reading and very long lectures, but I guess that's kind of expected for an online class :)

Watching her lectures I can tell she is very passionate about geography. She is a very sweet lady that just cares about the earth! My only complaint is that we learned so much material at once I found myself forgetting what we had learned just a week prior. But there is a lot to learn in geography so I dont blame her.

Took Geography 1000 online for my physical science credit, and I'm glad I did! Professor Groves makes a normally "boring" topic very interesting! There were typically 4-5 assignments due every week. 4 exams throughout the semester, and no final. This class is not time consuming, and Professor Groves is great. Definitely take her class!

I loved that Prof. Groves lectures were more interactive than just the professor telling you the information. We all got to participate and it was a really enjoyable class.
