Reviews of professor Raquel Botello

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
For the most part, everything was online, including the tests but you have to have the lockdown browser. Its hard to pay attention in lecture and she moves through the slides quickly. Shes intimidating at first but super nice if you talk to her. She doesnt take attendance but she gives occasional pop quizes that are easy 100s if you go to class.

Dr. Botello is late to lecture every single day and tries to make us stay after class to make up for that fact. The material is interesting and she really wants class participation, so she will call on someone every slide to ask for their opinion. The exam is made up of multiple choice/short answer, but she doesn't give out a study guide.

I took intro to pscyh with Prof Botello. She is very lecture heavy and although class can be boring, you learn the material well if you show up. The grading was fairly easy and Botello is very kind and intelligent. So overall boring but easy course for an intro

Had Dr. Botello for gender issues and she made the subject super interesting for me. She encourages participation and her assignments are subjective to the student especially the writing assignments. I will say however, that she does give a good amount of work each week but it is expected as this is a more higher level course. Overall, she's great!
