Reviews of professor Daisy Raphael

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Daisy cut several marks from many assignments for no reason whatsoever. Avoid this prof if you care about your grades because she will change your grades with the reasoning that the marking was "too generous." Everyone works hard on their assignments it isn't the student's fault if the marking to her is considered "too generous"

Dr. Raphael is a good professor. However, for a 100-level course, the workload she assigns is ridiculous. I was excited to take WGS102 as an elective, however, I couldn't enjoy learning course material because weekly deadlines were excessive and stressful - equivalent to 300-level courses. Definitely not a GPA booster course.

Daisy is extremely caring and willing to help. She values participation but offers multiple ways to do so. If you are shy in front of a class, send her emails, use her office hours so she can see that you are engaging in the material. WGS 240 was a heavy reading and writing course, but she is very accommodating of student struggles.

Daisy was very nice and was open to offering extensions and helping those who needed it. However, the grading of my assignments really confused me and I was often left not knowing where I went wrong. As well, the amount of coursework due near the end of the semester was poorly planned.

For a 100-level course the work load was extreme. It took until the end of the course to get marks back for the first assignment, even after they were marked, she went back and lowered marks at the end of the semester with no feedback. I tried to email her multiple times during the course and would receive no response, even after follow up emails.

Daisy is so kind and very passionate about WGS. I wish we would have had this class in person because when I met with her during online office hours I really connected with her and it reignited my joy for the class. Real sweet prof who actually cares about what she is teaching.

Nice person, very smart, extremely slow grading which hurts her students. Only area of improvement that seems pressing

Daisy is the sweetest human alive and truly wants her students to succeed! She literally will give you a clear rubric for every assignment and exam so you know exactly what you need to do in order to get a good grade. Her content is super interesting and her feedback is always filled with tons of positivity. I loved this class and Daisy so much!

Dr.Raphael was a sweet lady, however was extremely hard to reach. Sometimes it took weeks to receive a response to an email. This course was also EXTREMELY course load heavy and had way too much readings/assignments/papers for an 100 level course. Would not recommend as an elective.

I am not sure how she even gets teaching positions as a non-faculty member given her complete disregard for her students. I suppose some people are just privileged.
