Reviews of professor Denise Anderson

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
She's very passionate about the course I'll give her that. However, she's a terrible critiquer. She told 2 students they should consider dropping out of the design program because they're "not skilled enough". Too many dumb group projects and the workload is unbearable, you'll get a "D" for the day if you don't participate as well.

Horrible feedback. Doesn't respect students. Unprofessional. Brings you down every chance she gets. Not clear with assignments. Talks about other students to students. Wears to many hats and doesn't prioritize time well. Emails in class while gives class stupid exercises to pass time.

Not an inch of room for creativity. Her "critiques" are her telling you the way SHE wants you to design. Sent multiple emails for her to look at my work, after all of that she still finds something she doesn't like and takes points off. She told me one of my projects was perfect, but I got in front of the class to present and she told me it was bad

She cares about her student's success. When she teaches you something, you will know it for life. She's respectful, caring, professional and understanding. She brings out the best abilities in you as a student and really prepares you for the real world.

I highly recommend that you take her class if you're in the GD program. There's a lot of things to learn from her class. Her lectures are very interesting and informative. A majority of the assignments will very likely become your portfolio piece if you pay attention, listen to her, and show your passion for design, particularly for branding.

She is absolutely disrespectful. I honestly don't understand how she's in charge of such an important group of classes for graphic arts majors. She goes out of her way to humiliate you publicly and privately.

I learned a lot from her class, but it never seemed like anything I did was enough for her. Whenever I thought I did good work, she shut it down immediately. Never gave me any positive feedback and made me feel stupid. I'm fine with criticism, but it's really discouraging to ONLY get negative criticism & never any suggestions about how to improve.

I only had her for one class and I dropped it immediately after just the first day because of how bad of a taste she left in my mouth. She also wanted to talk to me this semester about "enhancing my portfolio site" but that was just code for, "Here's all the things I don't like about it. Go change it." So rude and disrespectful. Don't recommend!
