Reviews of professor Lindsay Mahovetz

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
I was looking forward to taking this course until I had to experience Dr. Mahovetz. There are very few assignments that are used for points and those that are she grades harshly. Her exams are very difficult, majority of class did less than average person. Must show up for class to get attendance points!

Dr. Mahovetzs class is very much participation based and theres lots of homework. Theres class discussions you have to attend every week and participate in order to get points and you kinda have to because its a large percentage of the grade. I found her exams to be pretty easy, its just her class is definitely a lot of work.

Professor Mahovetz is very nice, but as a professor it seemed like she had no clue what was going on. On top of not being specific for what she wanted us to do for assignments, she graded harder than any professor I've had. Do not take a course with her if you have the choice!

Dr. Mahovetz is an extremely tough grader, very dramatic regarding online proctoring, and worst of all, she doesn't put grades into canvas but instead puts them into a useless excell spreadsheet that doesn't even calculate your grade.

Worst teacher Ive ever had. Her online class is nearly impossible. The average test grades were 60s and she would curve them 7-8 points. She doesnt care about the students. Do not take her class, I had to withdraw.

Some of her instructions were a little confusing and canvas wasn't very organized but I believe she's a new professor so she's just getting the hang of things. She's very caring, responds to emails super fast, she gives study guides, there was no cumulative final, and she tries really hard to make the class interesting and fun.

Her instructions for assignments are very vague to the point that I was doing three times the work just to get points taken off. The worst part is that she doesn't put your grade into canvas but creates an excel spreadsheet with multiple slides for you to sit around for hours trying to calculate your grade yourself to no avail. Don't recommend.

Sweet, but hard. Need the book or you won't be able to get the quiz answers/pass. Lectures are very boring and the powerpoints don't help at all. There are group work assignments/discussions, she is participation heavy, and there is also a powerpoint presentation you do. IF YOU DON'T LIKE TALKING IN FRONT OF OTHERS DON'T TAKE THIS CLASS!
