Reviews of professor Maria Ramirez

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
If you want an easy A gen ed, this class is for you. If you actually want to give something out of your time, it's not. Never in my life have a learned less from a class. I feel as if I got no real acting advice at all which is why I wanted to take this class. Overall I'm just extremely disappointed.

The only thing you are graded on is attendance, no tests/homework. All you do in class is play games & act out scenes with partners but she doesn't grade on how well you can act, you get a 100 if you just perform it. MY FAVORITE PROFESSOR EVER. If I could take this class again I 100% would & I recommend it to everyone. Def take it for an easy class

Most people enjoyed the class. If you want an easy A, very little work, and lots of cancelled classes, this is your class. If you actually want to learn about acting, this is not a class for you.

The critical reviews are on point. The positive ones in between sound like they were written by the professor (eg., we do not refer go ourself as STEM majors). But if you are rich and someone else pays your tuition, take the class. You get an A and you can learn stuff in other classes.  If you are here to learn may be take a different class.

Malena (her preferred name) is awesome! Her class was always so much fun, as she finds ways to teach lessons by playing fun games. She's very honest, gives good feedback and tips, and is just hilarious. You can tell she cares about her students and wants them to succeed. Take her if you have the chance!

Malena is super relaxed and fun. This class is a great art credit and as long as you show up and participate it's an easy A. You are required to go see 3 shows outside of class, but the tickets are the only thing you have to pay for, which totals to about 40 dollars.

My favorite class of the entire semester and the energy given off in the class is indescribable. You show up, have a good time, and get to know each other. One final performance at the end of the semester but nothing to stress over. Overall, I am going to remember this class forever.

I am an engineering major. I took this class because my friends recommended it as a gen Ed. All we do is play games. It cost a lot of money to pay tuition to learn nothing and play games. Easy A thought if that is what you are looking for.

Don't care about any bad reviews for Maria, cuz most of college students are overwhelmed, especially for me, as a STEM student. As a GenEd class, the acting skills she taught us is just enough if you are not acting major. The only thing matters in this class is enthusiasm, that's the thing Maria want to see.
