Reviews of professor Lepa Espinoza

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Pretty much everything is graded as either 100% or 0%, so if you do the work it is pretty much impossible to not get an A. The assignments were repetitive busywork, so they were easy but tedious. Lots of discussion posts addressing the same themes/topics over and over just applied to different books. Easy class, but I didn't really learn anything.

Uses an unnecessary amount of third party programs, most of which suck, we bought three books and used HALF of ONE, homework is easy but pointless, the professor DISAPPEARED halfway through the class, and unpublished the class from Canvas before posting final grades. I learned absolutely nothing. If you see a class with her name attached, RUN.

Lepa is the kindest teacher you will ever meet. She teaches less of memorization and numbers and more of deep understandings and qualitative learning. She is such a humble and down to earth person and acts as a teacher AND an advisor and mentor. She adjusts her class to the students needs, is flexible, and genuinely roots for her students success.

Left half-way through the semester and unpublished the canvas course before giving our final grades. Unreachable and would not respond to emails or messages - I had to call the English Department and try to contact her through the department head. Did not grade most assignments and projects, and we did not cover 2/3 of the texts.

WORST EVER. No organization, feedback, instruction, or teaching. The lack of clarity made this the most stressful class ever bc I was never sure what I was supposed to do. Espinoza's "do anything you want and you'll get full credit" is fitting for a yoga teacher, but not a university professor. Not hard, but not pleasant.
