Reviews of professor Lauren Petty

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
she's kind and really passionate about her work but if u know nothing about film or photography, you won't really thrive in her class. the lectures are also pretty boring and the work is tedious. she's a harsh grader but the criteria is pretty clear. if you're a photography or film major, her class is right up your alley.

Nice, but a little bit strange. Her way or it's wrong type approach when giving feedback, likes to argue. Overall a decent teacher and grader though. Lots of readings in her class but you can skim and still do well.

Lauren is very nice and has a clear understanding of what she's teaching. I really like her class even though it can get a little boring sometimes. I really liked her projects that she had us do and I also really enjoy her critiques.

Being in her class made my brain regress academically. The discussions are so meaningless and a waste of time and effort. Her technical, surface-level skills are attempting to compensate for the fact that she doesn't mentally stimulate you at ALL. Everything is about logistics with her; it's nauseating. Do not take this class if you want to grow.

She pushes you to learn and make good material and ultimately she just wants quality work. Sometimes this can feel subjective and unclear which is frustrating. She gives honest feedback during crtitiques. She's pretty understanding when it comes to work submission and willingly to speak with you outside of class.
