Reviews of professor Maia Butler

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Butler seems to be a friendly and compassionate professor who is easy to talk to but she gets triggered easily by activist issues. This can lead you to not trust her because you never know when she's going to flip out. Eventually you stay quiet in class to protect yourself.

I've read the reviews of what others have said, and yeah, she goes off topic sometimes, but if you're interested in the subject matter, it's a welcome tangent. I found class to be incredibly informational if one participates and asks questions or brings up ideas. She likes to let conversations happen organically, so students can bring up topics.

Amazing caring professor. She deserves the world. Love attending her lectures because she is very open-minded and gives everyone a chance to speak their voice with a central theme and guides us in the general direction needed. Papers are good as long as you actually read the books you're talking about in class. End of year project is long but good.

I wonder what she's really supposed to be doing with her life. Teaching isn't it. Her lessons seem to be based upon what she's seen in movies about inspirational teachers rather than solid teacher training. Discussions are awkward and one-sided and she tends to carry the "conversation" becuz others don't know what she's talking about.

If I had four months to live, I would want to spend it in Ms. Butler's class, because it would feel like an eternity. She doesn't make class topics interesting and she rambles a lot. I came into college thinking I'd be an English major; after taking Ms. Butler's class, I'm changing my major to something less boring, like Calculus.
