Reviews of professor Andrea Montes

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I would not recommend this professor only because her teaching style just consists of lecturing off of powerpoints. The class is not hard if you do all the work and actually put effort into studying the material. Attendance is mandatory as your participation is based on your attendance. There are 2 exams, 2 papers, 1 group paper, 1 group project.

Absolute worst prof I've ever had. Very smart in subject, however, very unprofessional with several grammatical mistakes in EVERY SLIDE as well as lots of cussing in class. Very vague with instructions and the hardest, pettiest grader I've seen. Sounds more like a strict sports coach than prof. Oh- and don't bother asking her to round up grade! GL!

Professor Montes is a really amazing teacher. Shes passionate and identifies strongly with the subject matter. The assigned reading was relevant and inspirational and she offers tons of help if you need it. Shes also super understanding and is happy to explain things multiple times for people if its hard to understand. Really like her!

Professor Montes is very passionate about teaching, however, her class is based solely on ppts. You really need to memorize each and every slide because her tests are based 70% on them and 30% on the books. Overall I thought she was a good teacher but she needs to change her teaching methods. She also offers extra credit, so I guess that is good.
