Reviews of professor Mona El-Ghobashy

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Professor El-Ghobashy teaches an extremely informative course and is a talented lecturer. I thoroughly enjoyed my time learning under her. Her direct and no B.S. attitude can be intimidating for some, however I enjoyed it. Her feedback on essays is direct and useful for subsequent papers.

super mean, super hard for no reason. please just listen to me and avoid her and this class. me and all my friends were miserable and our GPAs suffered immensely. I have never received a grade as poor as those she gave me in my college career which made my grades hard to understand as she gives mean feedback rather than helpful.

In case of an emergency, she won't even permit her students to use their phones for a brief moment in class because she is such a tough instructor. She occasionally spoke at length during class without giving her students a chance to speak. It's also impossible to get a good grade on her essays no matter the effort you put in writing them.

You can be the best writer, do all the readings and take detailed notes on them, participate in class, but your grade is pretty much determined by her after the first two weeks

Her class is extremely enjoyable and interesting if you LISTEN to her and do the readings (the readings are also interesting). She is extremely knowledgeable and completely unbiased. Take her class if you actually want to learn and not just fulfill a course requirement. Participation matters, and it's easy to participate if you do the readings.

Professor El-Ghobashy is a fantastic lecturer, knowledgable about her field and quite funny. The readings are key to this class, especially because its discussion-based. She can be strict about deadlines, and accomodations but overall, she is very kind and understanding and I would take her class again.

Super knowledgeable professor, and the material taught was fascinating. It can be stressful as there are only 3 essays with no drafts due before the final essay. But as long as you do the readings, participate, and write clear, analytical essays addressing the prompts, you'll be okay.

her opening line the first day of class, "in college i never received anything lower than an A". well, this woman does EVERYTHING in her power to make sure u cannot say the same. She thinks shes above anyone and everyone and will literally give u a C on an essay written better than her own book. will NOT give u an A. take if u want a tanked GPA.
