Reviews of professor Mara Markinson

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Markinson genuinely cares about her students. She sets high expectations to challenge her students. She is the most understanding professor when it comes to student work/life balance.

This class requires an immense amount of time doing h.w's and group assignments, met with unfair grading. A rubric is provided but not fairly assessed. This professor's directions are not clear until after she unfairly assesses you. She does not care about her students.

She never gave up on his students
As an introvert, she notices that I need help, and every time I raise my hand, it feels like an effort, I'm grateful to have an older person who can help me improve that, and I'm grateful to be the person I am now
It takes time and effort to pass her class
And get some good players

Been a few weeks in her class and all I can think of to say is, wow. She is the smartest and most amazing professor I have seen. Beyond dedicated. I have never done so much work in my LIFE - seriously. But I've also never learned this much in all of my classes put together up to now. Her feedback is intense, picky, but ridiculously good. The GOAT!

Had for  MATH 385W and SEYS 775. MATH 385W is a hard course with a lot of work, but Dr. Markinson is amazing, understanding, kind, and always available to help. With SEYS 775, she was very flexible, understanding, compassionate, and easy to talk to. She always makes herself available to be there for her students. Truly a sincere professor.

This class is challenging, but once you get yourself used to the expectations that she demands, you'd wish no less for yourself and others as well. Her expectations were sometimes a bit strict, but they all made sense and were fair. I want to become an educator, and a good class requires an honest, challenging, and professional instructor.
