Reviews of professor Sam Martin

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Took class on disability in comic books. Totally not interested, but I learned a lot in this class and thoroughly enjoyed her classes. Funny, super nice and understanding. Make sure you show up, and you definitely have to read, but great class. Looking for her again for an LBST.

Course is on Disability History but Professor Martin makes it fun and interesting. Honestly didn't care about the subject before the class but I learned a lot. Definitely have to show up and take notes, but REALLY understanding and willing to work with you. Also, really funny.

I absolutely loved Professor Martin. She was very understanding and helpful during times I was struggling, which was very helpful due to COVID and online learning. Her pre-recorded lectures were long but informational and the live lectures are fun because you get to communicate your thoughts. DEFINITELY be prepared to read but the comics are great!

Loved Prof. Martin! Super laid back & cares a lot for her students & their well-being. Never kept us till the end of class unless we had a project or other assignments. You have a project final & a couple of essays at the end of the semester, but that's all. You read an assigned book, but other than that she's great. Would take again with her!

Easiest online course I took. Watched some movies, did the basic discussion board posts, and only one test. Funny and understanding.

Professor Martin's film class is great. Fun lectures where she asks our opinions, easy enough assignments, really understanding of college students issues, and awesome films. Loved the class!

I love Professor Martin and her classes were always enjoyable. Her lectures are engaging and she's sure to ask the classes' opinion on a subject rather than try to state her own too often. There will be papers in this class (a total of four that you need to write) however it's not too bad as the movies that are chosen for the semester are top tier!

Took her online summer course. Watched movies, had discussions. Quizzes are tough, but nice class.

Almost through Professor Martin's film class and I freaking love it. Great conversation, good films, and fun class. You have to take weekly quizzes on the lectures but just show up and you'll be fine.

Professor Martin is a great teacher who is caring about her students and really wants you to do well. However, she is pretty open with her opinions and politics which can be frustrating if you don't agree. She also is very good with working with students if they miss class or need an extension. No quizzes or tests.
