Reviews of professor Melissa Matthewson

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Melissa uses a socratic seminar style to all her classes, which is amazing. As long as you participate, you'll get a passing grade. If you don't read, you will be in trouble. She assigns lots of papers but she allows for a LOT of creativity. She also allows you to edit and resubmit papers for regrading. You'd have to really try to fail her class.

Melissa is a fabulous first year teacher, I really enjoyed her class. I found myself looking forward to going every time, and never skipped class. She is very good about incorporating students' creativity and suggestions.

Melissa is such a gem! There was a considerable amount of reading and writing outside of class, but nothing impossible. You have to show up to class since she emphasizes participation in class and would often times let us lead the discussion. She is a very caring person who clearly wants everyone to succeed, and her classes reflect that.
