Reviews of professor Sara Hendrix

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Dr. Hendrix is a fantastic teacher! She has a great sense of humor and truly cares about her students' success. The only thing she asks from us is to be actively engaged in the learning process. If anyone is being negative towards her, it's likely because they don't know how to follow directions. Her grading criteria is very clear.

I loved this course with Dr. Hendrix. She really looks out for the students that come to class, participate in discussions, and work hard. She has many outside opportunities in the realm of Public Health that she helps students with and made the course content super interesting. I walked out of this class loving environmental health because of her.

Knows her stuff, but has an attitude about instructing. Tries to be helpful, but ends up coming across standoff-ish and inaccessible,. Literally says during syllabus week that she "is not good at email" which in this day and age, is unacceptable. Will take days to get back to you, and is not accessible outside of class. Unclear grading!! Don't take

Dr. Hendrix CHANGED MY LIFE!!!! Completely changed my perspective on school and ignited a flame for Public Health I didn't know I had. Thank you!! She is always accessible, she sets expectations whilst still being realistic! 10/10 wish I could take her class a million times.

Avoid this teacher at all cost. She was extremely snarky and rude in class and over emails. She always made shady comments about students in class without saying their name. Not very helpful outside of class and her feedback was never helpful.  Overall she was not approachable and ALWAYS came into class with the worst attitude ever.

She very sweet and understanding. Presentations are required but not a lot of work. Most of the work was in class. Attendance not mandatory.

Dr. Hendrix is very knowledgeable in the public health area and ties in her personal experiences with lectures to show how applicable these topics are to the real world. She cracks up jokes from time to time and is overall a great professor. The bad reviews are most likely from people who never show up to class. Show up and it's fairly easy.

No extra credit opportunities. She is a tough grader. Sometimes the grading criteria is not clear and her feedback makes sense but also wouldn't work with the strict page limit. I think the material would be easier to comprehend and complete if the class were in person. I also do not know her due to the class being online.
