Reviews of professor Maria Odum-Hinmon

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Odum-Hinmon isnt tough, the content is. She gives great feedback on assignments and through e-mails. The information in this class is not common sense, so it requires study. However, the workload is minimal. You absolutely need the textbook, the class is basically built around it. If you do your part, you will gain a lot from this professor.

I found Dr. Odum-Hinmon to be very helpful when asked about assignments before they were due. She always responded quickly to emails. The recorded video presentations that were used due to Covid were extremely helpful in explaining the lesson and giving concrete examples similar to upcoming assignments. Her quizzes allotted more time than most.

Generally, her lectures were kind of boring. While you can tell she cares a LOT about her students, she provides minimal to no feedback on assignments. The quizzes were a lot more difficult than expected. Her course seems easy on paper, but she grades relatively harshly. She does have lots of extra credit opportunities though. Does not round up.

Maria Odum-Hinmon is very soft-spoken and sweet. She has a lot of background in journalism and knows what she is talking about. Gives great feedback and open to helping students in the class and out. Do the work ask question and go to class and you will do well.
