Reviews of professor Alyssa Maldonado-Estrada

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Maldonado is wonderful. I took her Bad Religion Seminar and loved it. The lectures were definitely lengthy and repetitive. Sometimes they were pretty boring but a lot of time they were very engaging. Everyone would just go on their computer during lectures and she didn't care, which made it much more bearable imo. She is such a sweet human.

Great prof! really makes you think critically about things you've never thought about. Great for religious and non-religous people. She is clearly very passionate, and she's very available if you ever want to chat. Even made me consider taking more religion classes. Would recommend

I had her for my Freshman seminar. I absolutely loved her! This class definitely made me consider taking more religion classes. She incorporated pop culture such as Criminal Minds episodes into the class content to show how religions are represented. She g lots of reading homework so read your novels a week or so ahead of schedule on the syllabus.

One of the best professors on campus. I took her for my first-year sem and really enjoyed the class so much that I ended up taking more courses in the religion department. It's very obvious she loves what she teaches, and she loves discussing with students the material. Like everyone mentioned, her classes can get really heavy with the reading.

She is very nice most of the class is discussion of reading that you have to do outside of class, around 20 pages a day. She doesnt give exams. Her class is fun but a bit heavy on reading.

I absolutely adore Dr. Maldonado, she is such a kind and caring professor who does such a great job with her lectures and is passionate about what she teaches. She is very knowledgeable about the subjects that she covers and does a great job organizing her classes and lectures. 110% would take her again for any religion class at K, take her!!

Dr. Maldonado-Estrada is an absolutely amazing professor. Not only does she make classes engaging and fun, she makes you want to learn. So much so that you may even consider becoming a religion major! She doesn't just care about your standing in her class, but she cares about you as a person. There is absolutely no way you could go wrong  with her.
