Reviews of professor Marissa Epstein

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Epstein has been the absolute best professor I've ever had and in a category of her own. Professor Epstein is the most caring, respected, and inspirational professor I have ever had . She demands that you put your best effort and work forward, and you are rewarded if you do so. I would love to take another class with her!

This professor is quality. She has lots of real world experience, and has taught at other prestigious schools. You can tell she's really passionate about her subject, but she is not very approachable. She can get snappy if you ask questions, she won't accommodate much and tests on the nitty gritty details that she glosses over. Her tests are tricky

Epstein is very passionate and enthusiastic about her subject, and I'd encourage you to ask questions for some interesting conversations. Lectures usually just repeat what's in the book, but I found the repetition helpful for retention. Pop quizzes are easy but random, so it's best to show up. You'll be fine on tests just reviewing posted slides.

I believe everyone should take nutrition in college and if you can, take it with Prof Epstein. Yes, she tests the big scientific details of nutrition, but she spoke about it in a caring and compassionate way. You' ll definitely come out with a different view on nutrition and fad diets (as she calls them). 12/10 would recommend taking it with her.

Tests are kind of difficult but going over lecture slides is one of the greatest things you can do to help yourself. Also, what helped me was taking note on what she said during lecture rather than the slides, which can be accessed online. She cares, and she'll care even more if you do!! Just try ur best u kno.
