Reviews of professor Melissa Pope

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Even though its an Intro class she makes it really hard. She goes though the slides really fast and is not really good at explaining things. You need to read the book because a few things on the test are from there. The tests are really hard.

Professor Pope has been one of my favorite teachers of all time! She tries her hardest to be funny and if you pay attention and take notes her tests are not that bad. She always gives out study guides and assigns barley any homework. Lastley, there are no papers or essays in the class. She is a wonderful person and her class is a joy!

Professor Pope tried her best. It was clear she had never taught before because her lectures were organized poorly and incredibly boring. She fly through lecture slides, and not post them online until after class; which would be frustrating when you are trying to take notes. Tests were challenging and she gave no review or study guide.

I usually do not make these for my classes, but I had to make one for this class. She was just a mess, and I have never said that about any of my other professors. She is clearly doing this just to get her degree, graduate, and move on. Pope does not care about students or teaching.

This class itself is not that bad. Very flexible and organized. Her on the other hand, makes this class difficult. I don't think she is even a professor. Grades hw extremely hard for no reason and never responds back to emails. Very awkward in lecture and exams are very hard. No papers. Personally would not take this class again, but not terrible.

After seeing the bad ratings, I still took Professor Pope. I mean, she is a student herself, so she is doing her best. She was definitely super nice, but I see why people say her class was tougher than It should have been given it was an intro class. I will admit, I only got an A- because of the switch to virtual learning and using notes on exams.

Professor Pope is straight up just not a good Professor. She fails to answer emails and offer any sort of help outside of the classroom. She does not make the course material interesting, goes through lectures extremely fast without thorough explanation and generally gives off a weird vibe. She is very bias when it comes to certain topics as well.

Prof. Pope is one of the worst Professors at this school. She is not understanding, does not make an effort to help struggling students and goes out of her way to add stress to her students lives. I think she answered one email that I sent her, and I had to approach her twice in person just to get a response. I strongly suggest not taking her class
