Reviews of professor Rebecca Basch

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
A very easy A course, just do the exercises and projects with some effort and you'll be fine. The course was overall boring material, but if you need this course for credit take her.

It's true that she is a very slow grader but other than that, I enjoyed taking her class. I'm not an art major but I think the work was manageable and enjoyable.

Amazing professor for a level 100 course. The assignments are engaging, the grade criteria is lenient since its an art course. The due dates on assignments are also very lenient, but I wouldn't put assignments off for too long out of respect for the prof. The feedback is very informative too.

Definitely take her if you need this for a Mason core art credit. Professor Basch is super helpful when you email her, but she responds super slow. There is a lot of homework but she gives you 2 weeks to complete it. I have no art experience and was still able to earn an A. She gives amazing feedback. no tests or quizzes. TAKE HER!!

I took her during Spring 2020, when in person classes transitioned to online, and she's spectacular. In person, she would always go around and check up on you, ask about your projects, give feedback, very engaging and caring. Online she's flexible and cheerful. I only wish she was a bit more critical, but she's great for a level 100 course.

Beki is a good professor. She cares about everyone's creativity and wants to see you grow as an artist. She expects you to be prepared every class (she will announce what supplies you will need that day), and expects her projects to be done exactly as they are written. I only wish there were more instances for her to teach techniques in depth.

This class has a LOT of work, but is assigned every 2 weeks. 1-2 exercises & a project each segment along with a blog post, peer feedback, and a small paper at the end. She grades very slow but so far have an A+. Honestly wouldn't recommend this course for Mason Core, it feels catered more towards art students/majors. Will update final grade.

I really enjoyed taking this class. The projects were not too bad considering that I am not an artist. If you need help she is more than happy to help. Her class taught me a lot of fun and interesting things. I would definitely take another class with her as my teacher!
