Reviews of professor Sara West

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Probably the worst teacher I've ever had in my college history. Dr. West made me question San Jose State as a whole because of her-- from her teaching, grading, and attitude. I truly feel as if I've learned nothing from this teacher, but had to learn it all myself. So if you're ready for an all around disappointment with challenges, take West.

I really don't understand why Dr. West has bad ratings on here, she's a great professor and cares if YOU do. Office hours are extra credit, and actually really helpful if you want to edit an assignment before turning it in. She's very witty and spunky, but also very respectful and nice. Her assignments are not rocket science, and she grades fairly.

Great teacher! Really wants her students to succeed! Was skeptical in taking her due to the comments but she was really easy! Had a total of 5 assignments (like making a resumer & cover letter, easy) and a few reading quizzes. Definitely recommend taking her! Office aren't mandatory but can earn up 30 extra credit points by going!

She chooses assignments that are actually fun to do, while still adequately teaching the course material. I haven't experience too many professors who could do that. She's still fairly new in position so I'm confident she'll get better with every semester. Give her a chance!

She is a really tough grader make sure to go to conferences. Don't miss the in-class activities. They may not be worth a lot of points, but they add up in the long run.
