Reviews of professor Melissa Castillo Planas

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Castillo Planas is one of the best professors at Lehman College. Her lectures are engaging, insightful, while exploring what Latinx literature is. You will enjoy all the readings. 3 assignments: 1 conference paper, 1 presentation and the final. Trust me, you wont regret this class! I loved engaging in class discussions!

I don't see why everyone says that she is very understanding, her expectations are unrealistic how she expect us to attend these events and assigned so much work when we all have other classes and responsibilities I'm a full-time student have a family, and a part-time job, there's no way i can keep up with all her demands when i have 4 more classes

This was a poetry writing class, and thanks to Dr. Castillo Planas my poetry writing skills have grown tremendously! This was my first writing class and she could tell right away I wasn't writing in my own voice. She definitley pushed me and I am a grateful for it since my poetry has been published. I assigned poem weekly, and 1 for workshop.
