Reviews of professor Isabel Amarante

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Prof. Amarante teaches a difficult class. There are lots of papers, big essays, lots of readings, and she is a tough grader. Her classes are mainly lectures with discussions every now and then. We also had a group presentation at the end. I didn't like how she was not very open to opposing viewpoints or opinions on some topics. Would not recommend.

All you have to do is read, take notes, and listen. When she asks a question try your best to participate because she takes all of it into account. Would I take her again? No. I took both her ANT classes in the same semester and passed both with As. I barely did the readings but I worked hard on my papers, showed up, and sometimes participated.

She's heavy on participation, but will not give any student any chance to ask questions, comment, or participate. She said no one's paper is wrong, as it was an opinionated essay, but the amount of criticism seemed to personally attack you. Take the class if you're open to heavy criticism, but remember, she will not back down and listen to you.

She is very rude. She spends most classes yelling at students ad complaining. She even told the class that she is not paid well and talked about the way our mothers raised us. She gets mad over every little thing.

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS! she doesnt respect us, is very rude, she doesn't answer emails, and she will make you feel miserable for a mistake. I know people will say she is good, but I repeat Do NOT TAKE her, she is the worse. During this pandemic she is not considered at all, she gives a lot of work and every time you go to her class is a nightmare
