Reviews of professor Amanda Smith

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I took this as an online course and there were 14 assignments, 7 discussion post, 7 quizzes, and a final exam. Some of the assignments were long and time consuming but doable if you follow directions. Quiz answers were on quizlet, and the final was similar to the quizzes.

She's all over the place and goes off topic a lot during class

Amanda's attitude to students depends on her moods. Sometimes you feel well respected while sometimes you don't. Only three major projects in her class which is good, but things like reading quizzes and online discussion board keep you busy. She is overall okay as an instructor, and getting an A in her course is not hard but requires efforts.

If you see Amanda as a professor on your schedule try to switch classes. Most of the assignments have vague expectations and instructions and she expects you to read her mind in order to figure out what to do. She tends to be really moody and can be extremely disrespectful at times when communicating with students.

Eye-opening, well-organized & inspirational, not sure what class the other reviewers were sitting in on. I learned so much about academic research and had the opportunity to connect with professors in different fields. Prof Smith basically facilitated this lecture series and chose great speakers. Work was minimal but helped me engage with lectures.

She's awful and extremely disrespectful to students, and holds everyone else's thoughts in no regard. She grades without any meaningful feedback, and is entirely unreceptive to even simple questions.

Professor Smith was great! It was difficult having a professor in person through zoom but she is quick to answer emails and questions! Participation is very important in her class (10% grade) and participating more gets you extra credit. She gives you practice questions and problems before all tests. I recommend!!

With Prof Smith, as long as you touch base on ALL of her requirements for each writing assignment, you should have no problem receiving a good grade. After each rough draft you get back at least 3 reviews (one including Smith's) which is very helpful for creating your final draft and she offers extra credit which can also help boost a letter grade.

Great prof that gives good, specific feedback. She really cares about her students and wants us to improve. She grades very fairly and also gives a bunch of extra credit opportunities. Overall, the work is pretty manageable but there are a lot of smaller assignments that keep you busy. She's super sweet, so don't be afraid to ask questions!
