Reviews of professor Jennifer Palmer

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
When I started the school year, I was an art major. This class was one of the reasons why I changed my major. Dr. Palmer was very friendly and helpful for someone like me (who is terrible at doing anything artistic) but I hated coming in and drawing for almost 3 hours every day.

Horrible. For an entry level class she's overly critical. She assigns back to back projects which is expected. For each BtB project she assigns there are OTHER HUGE projects that are to be done. with other projects assigned and them taking TIME you'll be working on those during the duration of the class. she's unhelpful & she needs to be addressed.

Gives terrible feedback and does not challenge her students within her classes. Caters towards the students with less experience and does not pay attention or challenge those with higher experience.

Ms. Palmer was a good teacher to have, though her class title (art-101) is a bit misleading, actually being exclusively about painting. Even so, this class helped me a lot with my art skills, and ms palmer, even with her harsh grading, was the main source of that help. She's also very understanding

Lots of drawing, most is done in class but there are sketchbook assignments assigned outside of class. All are checked at midterm and at finals. Some drawings are given outside of class, must complete because those two times are the big grading points. One presentation, but of artist of choice and super easy. She is very caring and wants to help.

She is the best! There's a book you have to read at beginning of semester, but it's an easy read & no hw 4it. 4 art projects which get critiqued and you choose the medium (can't do same medium twice). I am not art savvy, but this class made me love art. Critique day is fun! She gives students a platform and is down to earth! Awesome person overall!

One of my all time favorite professors. I learned more in her foundational courses than I did in most of my other classes and found her personal criticism and critique format incredibly helpful. I think she really helped me build strong, critical, foundational skills that help with my art immensely every single day. Also took her ART211. Miss her.
