Reviews of professor Sandra Lara

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Class had lots of reading but not too much for a history class. The class started a gender studies class but after 4 weeks it was just a history class with focus on gender specifics . Provided exam question class before exam so easy to be prepared and let use of notes. Had a group project and 8 page research paper.

She was really good when it came to lectures, but tends to get off topic. The tests were super hard and grades were put in last minute.

mAN you better read and participate for her class, i think she's a little easy on the grading when it comes to tests and papers though. Her voice is a little quiet but it's fine

Dr. Lara is passionate about history, this is nice. Ideally, I would not take this prof. again as this course is only a 1000 level class but often felt like a 3000. I highly recommend reading the assignments to stay on track as the exams are short response and essay based. MAKE SURE YOU READ.

(HIST: 1302) The professor is extremely unorganized, late, and last minute. Additionally rude to students who ask simple questions. She has yet to grade anything post the first week of class, and we finish the course in about a week. For anyone with a military background and or EASing I would recommend you specifically DO NOT TAKE this professor.

Class seemed disorganized. But she was very accommodating on due dates and participation. She always was letting students turn it work late and would count it. Was lot of books and but reading was about same as my other History Classes. Counts group project and Research paper as 60 percent of grade. Kinda soft spoken so sit near front.

She's a good professor. She's very critical when it came to papers & exam. Your hand will hurt after exams due to the essays . Expects you to write 4/6 pages while doing multiple choice & short answer questions. She MAY offer review days but no extra credit. Very little homework so if you do poorly on test you will most likely fail the class.

Her lectures were hard to understand and your hand hurts after exams especially after the second one the colonial period cause u had to write like 3 pages plus answer 25 questions for exam 2 in a hour and 15 Minute time period. I have to thank that classes were changed to remote learning the rest of spring 2020 otherwise I wouldnt have passed

Quite unorganized, turned in a paper that was not graded until over a month later. Read from the textbook and discuss over a PowerPoint in class is pretty much it. Occasionally there will be a discussion board online. Can get pretty boring but not a terrible class. The exams are a bit tough but with studying they're manageable.
