Reviews of professor Michele Martinez

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
She is an amazing person. She's accessible and always willing to help. I love her class and the topic (family snaps and stories) but you will need to work for your grade. She's not an easy grader but fair and she gives great feedback. There's about 4 major papers plus a portfolio and you need to read a few articles. Don't buy any books!

Professor Martinez's dystopian lit wr120 class was both very interesting and manageable! She's lenient with deadlines -- gives extensions if you ask which don't interfere with the 3 grace days she gives at the beginning of the semester -- and she's very kind both as a person and as a grader.

Such a sweetheart! Really cares about her students and wants them to succeed. Gives great feedback on papers and is super available outside of class, even if you can't make her office hours. Overall very kind and understanding professor, would recommend to everyone.

She's very understanding and flexible with deadlines. Not only do you have "grace days" (days you're allowed to submit late), but she will also be flexible if you talk to her personally. She's encouraging of expressing your own ideas about the texts. She isn't an easy grader, but she is fair and will always give good feedback on drafts to help you.

Highly recommend Prof. Martinez. She cares deeply about her students and creating a classroom community. Grading is very fair and she has flexibility built in with deadlines. Don't procrastinate essays because they take time to do well. Her feedback is very detailed and her office hours are valuable. You will improve as a writer in this class!

I love Professor Martinez. She is very accessible outside the classroom and is very understanding. If you let her know she'll accommodate when it comes to the due dates of papers. If you are looking for a WR120 class take her!

Prof. Martinez is one of the best! She is extremely enthusiastic and actually cares for her students. Extremely accessible outside of class with long office hours and also responds to emails quickly. Grading is fair, guidelines are clear, and you will actually improve as a writer. Please take a class with her you will not regret it.

Dr. Martinez is so kind! She cares a lot about her students and is very lenient as long as you give notice. She's very knowledgeable about photography and family photos. There are three papers and she gives plenty of time/workshops in class to get the papers done. Highly recommend!

Prof Martinez is great! This class was very easy - she has clear grading criteria for essays. She is also very understanding about COVID and she is very willing to meet outside of class. If you do a personal topic for family snaps and stories you will get a better grade!
