Reviews of professor Alix Ziff

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Made complicated topics accessible and was able to gauge when students weren't following and adjust her lesson from there which I greatly appreciated. You can tell she is passionate about her work. Only graded attendance, a midterm, a final, and a group project (debate/presentation) for this course.

Thoughtful lectures and intriguing conversations. Discussion heavy class where participation matters. Easy midterm and a final project. Accessible and super caring and knowledgable about transferring and the application processes.

Honestly, For me, I am a visual and slow learner, This class is a little fast pace but easy to understand. Professor Ziff alway looks out for the student and give her students the best possible way for them to earn free points. Don't be afraid to ask question, she will give you answer back to any question you would asked.

Wonderful class and professor, who is clearly very passionate about what she does. Class was very lecture heavy, but assignments were easy to understand. There are only two exams, so make sure to show up and take good notes. Participation matters for your final grade!

Clear lectures, a wonderful person, and I'd def recommend. The final was a group project and we had 1 midterm. As long as you take notes you should do fine.

Great and interesting professor to listen to since she obviously knows a lot. Love that she covers Africa heavily since it's not an area addressed in many classes. Never had any homework so if you come to class and take notes, especially on key terms to prepare for the tests(only a midterm and final), you'll do well.

The best professor I have ever had. She is very intelligent and knowledgable on the world, and makes a difficult course into something anyone can understand and want to learn more about. If you attend the lectures you will do fine. My world view has been greatly expanded in such a short time and I would definitely take her class again.

Overall, Professor Ziff's class was my favorite this semester. She is very knowledgable and does an incredible job during lectures. I took International Relations and the entire grade is made up of a midterm, essay and debate project, and the final. As long as you show up to class and take notes you'll pass this class with ease.

I have had Professor Ziff for three different classes, she is upbeat, caring, and very informative. Her lectures can be a bit all over the place but she has the most information I have ever seen a professor have. Her tests and projects are easy if you attend class, take notes, and pay attention. She is very caring and helps you when you need it.
