Reviews of professor Jessica Wahman

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I really enjoyed Professor Wahman's class, she's obviously very knowledgeable and passionate about her teaching. If you pay attention, do the homework, & ask questions in class, it's very possible to pass the class. She can come off as a bit condescending at times when asking questions but I think she means well, also strict with attendance grade.

1 She speaks clearly and can make us understand the hard concepts/ way of thinking easily. 2 We have a discussion space on canvas in which we can ask many questions and can always receive good feedback from her 3 good learning atmosphere in class+ encourages students to ask meaningful questions and answers with patience

My favorite professor in the Philosophy Department. Assigns a lot of work (40+ pages of reading and a short paper per week) but grades very fairly. She won't deviate much from the syllabus and isn't very lenient with extensions. She is a fantastic lecturer, and breaks down complicated and dense readings incredibly well: You will learn in this class

Class is very chill and she obviously loves teaching and that translates to the class itself. Homework every night but honestly not as bad as it sounds. Office hours are so helpful

Dr. Wahman is intimidating because she's extremely knowledgeable, but after going to her office hours I discovered she's actually so sweet and funny. To pass this class you MUST take detailed notes and do the HW every night, and review a lot for the tests. IF you do the homework and study, it's easy to get an A. She grades super fairly.

Not a bad prof, but I gave her a 3 b/c you get a zero in participation if you miss one class, didn't cancel class for scholar strike, and had a paper due election day. If you miss a blog post, you get a zero for the semester. I just think during COVID she should be more understanding. I'm not asking for easy, just more understanding.

Need a good professor? Look no further, Wahman is the best. She is very enthusiastic about the content she teaches and is amicable towards students, despite whether they understand or not. Her lecture is interesting, she explains explicitly when asked a question, and the class is extremely well structured. Also important: she has a sense of humor!

Dr. Wahman literally called me dumb in her office hours. If you dont understand something she is really condescending and it makes you not want to ask questions. Shell bully you if she doesnt like you. Be on time to class every single day. You have to buy the textbook which is several hundred dollars - just buy the online one for the homework.
