Reviews of professor Rachel August

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Unclear grading rubrics make it difficult to receive a good grade without explicitly address every. single. thing she is looking for. No room for individuality in her class

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5

Dr. August is one of my favorite professors at Sac State. I took this class over the summer and it was an easy A and I learned a lot too.

PPTs are long but not very difficult - just make sure you really pay attention to her notes. Weekly quizzes and some worksheets. Couple of exams. The quizzes and worksheets are untimed and has multiple attempts. Very nice professor. A few written assignments as well. Make sure you really study for the exams. Easy A if you put in the work.

Im in my last year at Sac state and have not had the best of luck finding teachers. For a six week course i dont understand why we had to purchase the book. The text is very bias and to me seems to try to slander people. The professors voice is very monotone on so im glad I dont have to listen to her lecture. Assignments seem straight forward.

This was an online credit/no credit class. There were a lot of assignments, but they were easily done. Take her if you have the chance.

Textbook is not necessary to buy, very gracious grader and assignments were super easy and straightforward. She really wants everyone to succeed and is very clear in her instructions. Easy A class and would 10/10 recommend her.

You really dont need the textbook, she does not post her slides online which forces you to attend class but even though the subject isnt the greatest she somehow makes it interesting. It should be very easy to obtain a good grade if you dont skip class and do her short essay assignments and quizzes.

Dr. August is such a wonderful teacher. She is clear about what will be on exams (there are about 6), and makes sure that you understand the concepts by assigning weekly homework, which is actually very helpful. She made learning easy, and there were never any tricks on exams or anything. She is super kind and funny, take her class!!

Dr. August was very clear on what was expected this semester and responded quickly to emails. You can tell she takes pride in what she teaches and the quality of homework is related to what you're tested on. Would recommend for everyone.

You will have three exams with a time limit on Responds lockdown and one easy graded essay. Make sure to take notes on her PowerPoints and read the chapters, easy A. She is very encouraging and gives great feedback.

Literally easiest A I've ever gotten. Took Dr. August's class over summer and it was so manageable with work. Everything is done through Connect so don't worry about purchasing a physical textbook.
