Reviews of professor Keith Miyake

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
It is definitely worth taking a class with Professor Miyake. There is nothing better than a professor who knows what he is teaching and most importantly is passionate about it and takes his time to explain it to his students. Definitely a very well respected professor.

This rating is just based on the online zoom class during the coronavirus. There is group work twice a week (once for lecture, once for discussion section) and lots of reading, but professor Miyake wants you to succeed and provides good study notes and materials. You learn a lot in this class. Worth taking.

Professor Miyake is really nice and cool and keeps the lecture atmosphere positive during this time of the pandemic. But the workload is way too much. He's trying his best to figure out the best set up for the class , but the workload is way too much. There is way too much reading and work, like he forgot we have other classes to tend to.

Professor Miyake is extremely passionate about what they teach. They are very dedicated to what they teach, lecture are recorded and posted he also does slides so its easier, Would recommend doing the reading so you understand the class. Grades is based off the TA not Professor Miyake!! So attend discussions. Take the class its a really good class.

Dr. Miyake is a great professor and they're very passionate about their work. They record all their lectures and put up the slides so as long as you do the readings and you're set. Even though attendance wasn't mandatory I enjoyed attending lecture and I would recommend this class to anyone interested in learning about social inequalities.

There isn't an ETST001 section for Prof. Miyake here so I created one. It's a pretty easy going class, his classes were in-person and lectures were all recorded and slides were all uploaded to canvas. There were 3 Journal Entries for the entire quarter. Midterm and Final were Essay Questions based on the readings and lecture. Not a bad class at all

Keith Miyake is an extremely passionate professor when it comes to Ethnic Studies. While his teaching style wasn't right for me, it could definitely be admired by others. I recognized that he admired students' ideas and built off their thoughts. Overall, I believe he is a great professor, and I would recommend him if you enjoy Ethnic Studies!

Miyake is great! Although there was busy work, it wasn't hard and made sure students kept up with the weekly readings. Used to be double but he listened to students and made them due once a week instead. Lecture is easy to understand but be ready for group work! He cares about his students and has a great understanding of Asian American studies.
