Reviews of professor Pavlina McGrady

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Pavlina had a lot of knowledge on sustainable tourism and provided great feedback, especially during presentations. Lecture and discussion-based with mainly written assignments and a few presentations. Exams were short-answer. She was a fairly easy grader and even if I slacked off a bit, it seemed hard to receive any less than an A on assignments.

She is a great teacher and I enjoyed her class this quarter. She is very positive and she cares 100% about her students which is hard to come by these days. She will help you on anything if you need it.

Take ANY of Pavlina's classes and they're all the same. The only thing that'll be different is the name. Every class is morphed into a class about sustainability somehow. She's also extremely vague on assignments and then will grade so hard. Would not take another class w Pavlina.

Online class was taken. Of my entire MBA program, this class by far was the hardest to understand the requirements. Grading did not match the assignment criteria and the whole class seemed confused very often. There were multiple group projects throughout the entire term, which is also very difficult in an online, MBA program. Wouldn't recommend.

The worst professor at SOU. Their disorganization, lack of quality instruction, poor feedback, and refusal to provide assistance made this class extremely stressful.

Expect lots of homework and reading. Criteria and assignment requirements weren't always very clear. Also a really tough grader, especially when it comes to grammar and punctuation. However, she does give decent feedback.
