Reviews of professor Mohamad Almalla

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I learned a lot about several Latin American cultures through the variety of readings & lectures. He is a solid educator. Participation matters. I will take Spanish from him, too.

Great teacher, interesting readings, extremely intelligent on the subject of immigration. 3 easy papers which are guaranteed A's if you follow the rubric. Pretty much all hw assignments will be 100's if you put somewhat effort into them. Definitely cares about his students opinions/success in the course.

You basically just have an assigned reading for every class and then spend the class discussing it. Not too bad. There were three essays throughout the semester but they were pretty easy and he doesn't grade harshly at all. There were also two assigned presentations. He's kind of intimidating sometimes but he's a nice person.
