Reviews of professor Emily Navarro

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
This class challenged me to critically think and apply key concepts into coursework. The lectures were engaging and could be tied into real life (work, family history, etc). I enjoyed going to this class and seeing how enthused Dr. Navarro was about the content. There isn't much hw and no tests besides the midterm and the final. Highly recommend.

She is passionate about sociology and it shows. The lectures were easy to digest and as long as you take notes its easy to understand the subject. For participation as long as you speak once in class you get the points. The tests are easy as long as you go through her presentations and notes beforehand.

She is a good professor. My class had 5 major writing assignments (some would have to do activities for). Attendance and participation are very much mandatory! The topics she taught on were a bit biased as she would sometimes choose to only delve into certain perspectives. She tries to make the class engaging and is passionate about the course.

She was really nice and tried to engage students in the material by doing different activities and encouraging small group discussions. She doesnt grade you on much, except for 2-3 page papers that were due every 3 weeks. Overall, the class was fun.

Great class and great professor! Very knowledgeable about the subject and student experience. One of my favorite classes. There's lots of readings and group discussions but participation helps to create a good experience. Highly recommend.

Despite my weakness on the applied writing and late turn ins, she is very understanding and gives me extra time on late work assignments. I am not a sociology person, but she is at least straight forward, even if I struggle at times. The best thing is that she gives group exams which I got a B on from the midterm, and teamwork is amazing!

Readings required, 5 group discussions, 1 final project and presentation. Readings were so interesting and usually pretty quick. In class was lecture and discussion-based, allowing the material to feel more personal and gain a better understanding. Dr. Navarro is a great professor!

Best Professor! I was quite intimidated to take this class but the professor made it go well for me. She is very accessible and understanding because she wants you to succeed. I highly recommend taking a class with Dr. Navarro.
