Reviews of professor Rebecca Falkoff

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Rebecca seems nice, however her lectures are incredibly disorganized and I frequently question what the point to any of it is. She goes off on pointless tangents a lot and makes questionable (and bold) connections to current events. Honestly, the best part about the class was the TAs, who were much better at focussing the material for the class.

Sweet woman, she's very knowledgeable about what she teaches. I just feel like sometimes the classes weren't super useful in learning anything very new. It seemed like we kept discussing the same things over and over. She's open to discussion though but assigns so much reading we barely have time to go over it all during class.

Do NOT take this core class. I can't attest to her classes outside of this, but this was the worst class I took here. She got off topic almost every lecture, and expected us to have the knowledge she didn't mention because of this. Readings are super heavy, like 200 pages a week, but they aren't really necessary bc of recitation. God bless the TAs.

Professor Falkoff is a really sweet woman, but she is NOT a good professor. Her lectures frequently get off-track, and most of them do not really have a clear point. She assigns SO much reading for homework to. On the bright side, you do not really have to actually read most of them as she "attempts" to review the important readings in lecture.
