Reviews of professor Eleanor Stanford

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
She is so awkward. Her criteria for papers are unclear and she is unhelpful and acts like she wants you to leave her alone. Do not recommend. The readings in her class are interesting, but the class is very boring.

she's not a professor or educator and it shows- interesting content and ideas, helpful feedback on writing, but horrible at facilitating class. So awkward.

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
The readings she assigned were great, but the class was a nightmare. Dead awkward discussions during which nobody spoke up and feedback and questions were rarely helpful--if ever. Went out on a limb to add her ESEM to my top three choices despite the negative feedback on here and regretted it immensely.

If you participate and do the readings, you will do well in this class, but often class discussion remains at a stand still and it is hard to not feel awkward in this class. The class content and structure is extremely interesting and engaging, but the class itself is what you make of it.

If you can avoid taking a class with this professor, please do so. She's not a teacher, and it's painfully obvious. The content is interesting, but if that's what's motivating you to take her esem, just take another one. You'll thank me.

Attendance is 25% of the grade in Esem Imagining Childhood. This class wasn't very fun. She is extremely awkward, so biweekly meetings with her were not enjoyable. If you put effort into your papers, she will see that and grade accordingly, but if you don't attend class, she won't like you. She's knowledgeable, but I wouldn't take her again.
