Reviews of professor Hannah Montgomery

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
First online class that I have ever taken. Weekly Quizzes and DB post with peer response. One project at the beginning that was fairly easy, but she does grade for grammar. Midterm/final. Exams were a little hard especially since some of the material was not in the lectures or reading and were outside information. The workload was pretty light.

Her lecture videos are short but she basically read off the slides the entire time. Lots of discussion posts where she requires 2 replies to other students but to get FULL points you need to do 3 or more replies which is not clear in her grading rubric. Super nitpicky about APA. Exams are entirely based off the readings and a bit of the slides.

The course is fully online. Docked a lot of points for a small mistake. Lectures are slides that she reads off from. I learned nothing in this class. Says something in instructions for assignments then does something different.

Very confusing class & professor. Study guides arent helpful, shes a tough grader, and wont give partial points. Her instructions are unclear and isnt very helpful when you ask her for help, takes awhile to get back to you. Theres a paper/project ad well as a cumulative final at the end. Expect to read your whole textbook and still struggle

I would say take someone else if you can because her lectures are basically her reading off of slides. She takes forever to grade and sometimes even switches her grading criteria.

She is tough. Students got marked down on papers, even when they followed the instructions, because she had unstated expectations for the assignments. Up until this class, I earned all A's. I am a very hardworking student. Coincidentally, she gave me an 89.99%. She would not round up. This bit of information is to show you how difficult she is.

This professor isnt the worst, but shes not clear at all in a lot of assignments. If you dont go to office hours to ask questions, youll stay confused. The papers seem interesting but theres never clear directions. You need the book to pass the class.

Don't take this class expecting an easy A. She is a tough grader but pretty clear on what she expects. Exam reviews help a lot and attendance matters. The grade is made up of assignments (papers) and 2 exams. I was honestly so surprised I got a couple perfect scores on the assignments. Her course is intimidating but she is always available to help.

If you take this professor, good luck. The class topic was interesting, but this she makes it way harder than it needs to be. Complicated directions, confusing projects, and her lectures are just slides with voiceovers of her reading directly from the slides. If you do take this class, GET THE BOOK. It's the only saving hope you'll have.
