Reviews of professor Kendra Calhoun

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Great lecturer. Very funny and good at answering questions. Only 5 assignments and 1 final throughout the course. So knowledgable, passionate, and nice.

Calhoun was amazing. Being her 1st time teaching, she did a great job explaining the (interesting) content w/ modern examples (vines, funny videos, GIFS). She's clearly passionate and caring. The workload can be considered "much" (reading responses every week that are easy) & 4 assignments, but if you go to lecture or read, it's completely doable.

Pretty awesome teacher. She uses vines to teach certain concepts which is pretty awesome. A lot of assignments and reading responses every week, which is not awful, but it's still a lot. She is nice about asking questions and she makes everything super relatable. Great professor

MOST INCREDIBLE INSTRUCTOR. seriously, not only is this material itself incredibly interesting, so is the instructor! She loves vines/ memes and attempts to incorporate social media into every single lecture. Reading responses are due every week, but they're a breeze. Assignments take longer but are equally interesting.

Definitely recommend, even if not typically interesting in subjects like linguistic. Feels at the start that it is much harder than it really will be, so stick it out. All of her lectures are super relatable and relevant and she always keeps it interesting! Not too many assignments and the few are easy and there is just a final, no midterm.
