Reviews of professor Sarah Richards-Desai

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Sara takes the fundamentals of the social work profession and structures her class around them. Sara really showed me how you can work within a broke system but still control the things that you can to make it better. Sara's class is indeed a easy A but take it if you want to be awakened!

Sarah is a social worker first and a professor second. Sarah's approach to her job and how she works around oppressive policies taught me more about how to actually help people then anything i could have learned in a book. Sarah is the definition of woke and puts most Ub professors to shame with how she runs her class.

The power points were very wordy and regurgitated the texts. There were many assignments with strict criteria. Every assignment was graded with a fine tooth comb where .25 of a point would come off due to a comma error. She had a hard time projecting her voice so at times students had to ask her to speak up. Questions were answered with question

Very little guidance towards assignments so youre left to figure it out on your own. Didnt stick to syllabus. Cancelled class 1/4th of the time, didnt grade or offer feedback for initial parts of sequential assignments. For a foundation class, I dont feel that I learned what I was supposed to- finished this class not knowing much about theories

Sarah is a very kind person who clearly applies social work values to her teaching and daily life. This makes her very accessible and accommodating. Her lectures are ok and the readings can be pretty difficult to get through. Overall I did not get a ton out of the class but it was an easy A and Sarah's lectures will only improve with time.
