Reviews of professor Leah Fernandez

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Daily quizzes but you get to use a page of notes. She won't teach at all, class consists of talking about the assigned readings (seems like a book club). The grade depends heavily on the final team project which is a podcast and written script.

Leah Fernandez: Dreadful APUSH teacher. Ineffective lectures, unclear instructions, zero engagement. A year of confusion and frustration. Avoid at all costs!

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5

Dr. Fernandez displayed poor teaching skills and disinterest in student progress. Communication issues, unclear deadlines, and dismissive behavior marred the learning experience. Their limited subject grasp and disorganization were concerning. Caution is advised before enrolling in their courses.

Dr. Leah Fernandez is not really that great of a teacher. She is quite annoying sometimes and does weird things in class with unexpected outbursts. She delivered a very disappointing teaaching experieence and never really taught herself, instead made the students ask questions to "teach" the class.

Take this course with a qualified professor, as Fernandez is not suitable to teach at the college level. Her contributions to lectures, which were largely student-run discussions, were rudimentary at best. She was extremely ignorant, disregarding any and all university policies that are in place to protect disabled and marginalized students.

Hands down one of the worst professors I've ever had. Her lectures offer absolutely nothing of value, grades are based on Wileyplus homework and tests, which are difficult. She seemed to not care at all about the fact that students have lives and hardships outside of her class. Thankfully, she will not be teaching for much longer at UCSB.

This class could have been amazing with a different professor, as Fernandez was clearly removed from the material and the students led discussion themselves, with very little insight from Fernandez. Very inflexible attendance and participation grading criteria, and was not helpful or tolerant of other students.

Leah is an amazing professor. She is passionate and caring of her students. Her grading criteria is a little unclear and even though there are a lot of readings and weekly quizzes, the class is easily manageable and the tests/exams are not rocket science. If you pay attention and read, you will pass!! Lectures are heavily discussion based but help

Lazy -- says things like, "well, I could do something that would make more sense and be more manageable for students, but that would mean work for me, so... no" Condescending Unclear on instructions, harsh on grading Treats students like high schoolers -- lots of worksheets, daily quizzes, constant supervision Bad communicator, harsh grader
