Reviews of professor Debra Satterfield

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
While Deb is a good person, her teaching skills is awful. She expects so much work during a pandemic, even after stating she understands the stress. Her critiques are too ambiguous and you never feel you are getting good feedback. As an upper division instructor, she is awful. There are no rest days bc of the amount of work required EVERYDAY.

Took her for 344A. She is an amazing professor. Very caring and genuinely wants to see you succeed in her class and in life! Get ready to work, but the projects are fun and you will improve as a designer. Clear grading criteria and a few in-class group assignments. MOST DEFINITELY Recommend taking her!!

Understandable Deb isn't everyone's cup of tea lol she teaches way differently than other instructors, but I loved it! She didn't baby us and treated us like professionals, her teaching method seemed way more current/free how real jobs would be. Sometimes projects can be a lot, but she truly cares about her students and is always there to help!
