Reviews of professor Ashley Anderson

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
She was not accessible outside of class and acted very superior to students, was not a fan of her as a person but her teaching style was mid. The weekly quizzes are full of trick questions, do not expect to do that well. Work with your TAs on the papers it WILL define your grade, they are super available. Also, do the song of the day.

Nursing classes are tough, you'll be thankful you chose Ashley.

Graded by very few things making it hard to do very well in the class. She lectures every single class all class long which gets pretty boring, and she does expect you to participate. Have to write two 5-7 page research papers which are awful. Can miss 2 classes total, and in class, you can easily work on other things while she talks.

She's clearly passionate about politics and her lectures are fairly detailed. TA really matters on if u have a good experience (mine is great - Bella Randle). She isn't very clear on some key terms tho and exams are way too hard. We have 50 mins and it's handwritten including an essay. She is also very clearly biased and puts that in her lecture.

Anderson was pretty cool. Very understanding with deadlines and emergency extensions and the like.

Anderson is an amazing prof who is super knowledgeable and passionate about her field. That being said, her class was a lot of work (readings for homework, papers, group projects). I think getting a good grade is attainable for anyone who puts in the work. Her lectures are effective. End project was a podcast which was so much work.

Professor Anderson is a great lecturer and is clearly very interested in the subject matter she teaches. If you are a political science major, I would highly recommend taking poli 130 with her. There is a lot of reading for the course, but you can skim through most of it and be fine. Pay attention in lectures, as essay prompts come from lecture.
