Reviews of professor Rachel Salgado

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
If you like English and love reading, you'll be fine in this class. Basically, over the semester, she keeps you very busy with lots of journals, short essays, and essays. Don't expect this class to be a breeze or easy A, you have to work for it and actually become a good writer before you can get a good grade.

Professor Salgado gives a lot of busywork. Every week there is a reading and discussion board regardless of papers and the fact that there have been no grades in since the beginning of the semester. She can come off as rude, but she is nice over email. You will get nothing from attending class. I slept through 3 lectures and missed nothing.

Professor Salgado is understanding and cares about her students. She gives great feedback to improve writing skills. Attendance is mandatory as we have class discussions every day. She is very respectful when it comes to her students point of view. Participation also matters. There are many readings that she tries her best to make interesting.

Professor Salgado is an amazing professor! She does all she can to ensure that her students know the material and are clear regarding due dates and assignments. Make sure to attend class because it is part of your grade. Also turn your assignments in on time because she does not accept late work (she is understanding of your situation though).

She's pretty young so she's really chill. She creates an open and inclusive environment for her students and doesn't push people to speak if they don't want to. Very accessible outside class and clear communication. Would take again.

Great teacher!! I submitted work late very often and she was understanding about it (though would take off points duh). Not a super tough grader, she always gives guided questions, as long as you follow those you'll get a good grade. Several discussion posts, 2 essays, 3 journals, 5-6 reflections and final portfolio will make up your grade.
