Reviews of professor Ana Zalyubovskiy

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
She's nice but a bad professor. For a 100 level class, she makes it very difficult and I know there are many students who have to take writing classes for their major like me. There's a lot of work for no reason and I haven't learned a thing.

Pick any other professor! She assigns so much work with unreasonable expectations. If you don't have a life, take her class. She also provided no support and always left me feeling discouraged. Also, instructions were always unclear. She spent more time expalining the purpose of the assignment rather than the instructions.

she seems like a very nice person, but i would rather eat cement then have her as a professor again. assigns such inconsistent nonsense,,, cant even see the grade youre receiving because she puts it as N/A . this whole course just made me hate writing. you're better off with someone else

She's very sweet as a person but assigns way too much work. She's very out of touch with student needs often and the work load is too much to handle. As other people said, don't take 123 if you value your mental health, it was the first class that's made me actually think about dropping out.

Organization and clarity of this course is rather poor. I believe that Ana cares about her students but communication on assignments or what was expected of essays made my head spin. The only way to get through this class is through scheduling time to meet outside of class. A lot of potential here but definitely struggled due to lack of clarity.

I was excited to take analytical writing and I don't often have much issue with professors, but this course was extremely draining to take. Assignments often felt like busy work that were just a waste of time but at other times we were given extremely little time to complete massive amounts of work. Class time often felt like it was just a waste.

This class made me rethink college. She has unrealistic expectations and does not take into consideration that we are full-time students. I'm shocked anyone has the time for this course.

Seems thoroughly lost and confused as to what she's doing. Assignments are posted as due years ago, with inconsistent descriptions and misleading rubrics, listing non-existent assignments as a prereq for doing a task. Emailing for clarification results in 'whoopsies' and little else. Labor-based grading feels like minimizing her workload as a prof.

The canvas page is a nightmare there are at least 5 new daily notifications for some random assignment that she needs you to complete. You get lost in the notifications and will have missed a deadline by then. She wants to help but when you go to office hours she fails so fantastically and seems upset at you.
