Reviews of professor Rachel Hollingsworth

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I didn't like this class at all. I didn't have her as my original teacher but ended up with her as a substitute for the whole semester. We learned off of PowerPoints and when she told us to watch her lecture videos all she did was read off of the slides. If anyone had a questions, she would just refer you back to the slides. Don't take her!

She has bad reviews but I had her and it wasn't even bad, as long as you show up and do your work you'll be fine. Tests were a little hard but if you studied you'll pass. Tests were timed and on lockdown browser during the pandemic. You're put into breakout rooms a lot to work on the worksheets in class

This class is unnecessarily difficult. She is not clear on her grading and has clear favorites in her classes. Very condescending and passive aggressive. She often says "Google is your best friend" or "discuss problems with teammates (who do not know any more than me)". She never gives you an actual answer which is frustrating. Take Hogan instead!

Great professor and it's clear she is passionate about what she teaches. She is pretty tough when it comes to grading but she and the aids give very detailed feedback. I liked the hybrid format of the class as I could learn in my way while still having structure. She was great at introducing new topics and setting us up for future success.

Rude, condescending, basically irrelevant as a professor, full class was busy work for points, she was never clear with what she wanted, rubrics were useless. Would never reccomend, literally would rather apply and enroll at another school than to have to take her class again.

I liked that she had us apply our knowledge like we would in the work force on tests. I felt this helped me know and understand what we were learning better. Although at times the professor would have us do a homework assignment in class. Dont get me wrong this was good but not if you already did it because it was due that night.

She was our sub for KIN101 and I can't learn from it. Online definitely made things harder but there is so much busy work and assignments that do not help me with content. Plus, she has the bar for expectations high.

Ms. Hollingsworth assumes students know how to perfectly read a research article. Passive aggressive tone and makes you feel stupid. Long and boring classes. Assignments: useless and harshly graded. This should be a class you get an A in, but nothing is ever good enough for her; good luck. Every student was constantly confused and stressed.

The class wasnt half as bad as people have made her out to be. She rubs people the wrong way and people find her annoying, but the class was a lot easier than anticipated. Watch the lectures and come to class prepared and youll do completely fine. Put an ounce of effort and you can get an A. 85% of points come from quizzes and attendance.
