Reviews of professor Pavithra Suresh

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
There is a midterm, final, book report, and small map quizzes. She can speed through things pretty quickly in lectures, but she's an easy grader. The textbooks are useful to use as evidence in assignments, but I didn't read the assigned sections before class and I did fine. All the assignments are more writing based, not multiple choice, etc.

She is really nice and tries to make sure everyone understands the concepts and passes the class. Paying attention in class is all you need to pass--everything on the tests is mentioned. It's a very easy class. Rent the books. You only need to read the readings for the first few weeks and the book for the book report. Participation is appreciated.

Professor Suresh is wonderful. The class was organized super well and if you plan out your assignments and just put your best effort into them you will easily get an A. Her lectures are interesting and she is very understanding. She gives encouraging feedback on most assignments. If you are considering taking GLOA 101, take her section!

Took Cult 320 with Prof. Suresh--I really enjoy her teaching style and how she engages students and tries to integrate student perspectives into discussions. She's always kind and respectful

I also had a major life issue come up during class and Prof Suresh was considerate, understanding, and worked with me to help find a schedule that worked

Professor Suresh is definitely an amazing and caring professor. She is very knowledgeable on global affairs and is very passionate about her studies. As long as you show up to class, you will be able to receive an A.

Easy and fair grader, cares about students, interesting class. The lectures are easy to understand and not long. If you do all the work on time (flexible deadlines with lots of time to complete it) you should be able to get an easy A and the work doesn't take long to complete. I'd definitely recommend this class.

She is a carefree professor who does her exams online with the addition of map quizzes in class. She is also considerate about us being busy students so as long as you tell her that you wont be in class she will excuse it.

I loved this prof. She is such a great sweet person and she is so understanding. Pick her PLEASE DO! I promise you wont regret it. Its not necessary to read the textbooks because she does a great job in summarizing everything. You have to do 8 essays (300 words or less)and 6 discussion videos (3 or less). Overall she makes the class fun and easy.

I love Professor Suresh. She is the sweetest professor I ever had and goes through the textbook in lectures (so honestly you can pass without reading) in the form of very detailed and informative slides. The class has good organization and honestly is my favorite class that I have ever taken at GMU. Take this class!
