Reviews of professor Jamie Blake

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Such a great professor for being young. Grades easy but still gives solid feedback. Always willing to go more in depth on things you don't understand.

SO HARD EXAMS & HW!!!!! She even needs you to write down the beats by listening to the piano during the exams. I don't know why a non-music major student needs to have this ability.

Professor Blake is incredibly knowledgeable on music and its culture/history. Class was very entertaining, but it did get repetitive by the end and I stopped showing up to lectures. Recitation participation is required. There are about 5 quizzes and 5 writing assignments that are pretty quick and easy if you take notes during class.

Professor Blake is very knowledgeable, but she teaches MUSC 121, an introductory theory course for nonmajors, as if it is intended for music majors. She explains complicated concepts quickly, lectures are hard to follow, and homework assignments are difficult. You can do well in this class but it takes a lot of work. Not an easy gen ed.

Easy to follow lectures. All you really need to do is attend and take notes. Writing assignments are easy and can be done within an hour and grading is very lenient. Quizzes are simple as well. Professor Blake is very knowledgable and is always willing to help a student if they need help. Easy gen ed course!

MUSC 291 with Dr. Blake is easy and interesting! There are only a few assignments, they are on the shorter end, and the grading is lenient. However, Dr. Blake is very opinionated and there is a clear bias in discussions and assignments. I didn't mind as I agree with most them, but be wary of that if taking the class. She is also a very slow grader.
