Reviews of professor Ellie Smith

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Professor Smith went out of her way to make the class feel welcoming and the content relevant. She had extremely clear expectations and went above and beyond, ensuring everyone could succeed by regularly inviting students to reach out to her for help or just to get feedback on certain sources or the direction of your work.

She assigned a book that was very interesting but only had us read 3 chapters. The rest of the readings were from scientific journals and were difficult to follow or know what information to pull from for the quizzes. Due dates were different each week.

Ellie is very nice and was great at communicating with us! Some of the assignments felt like busy work but that is a problem with the class as a whole and not her. She was always flexible with due dates and even moved due dates or dropped assignments as a whole during busy weeks for us as students. You are graded on lecture participation so attend!
