Reviews of professor Erin Hawkins

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
She gives AWESOME note packets so that you'll never need to open the textbook. She does not give you enough time on the exams and it was a real struggle just to finish them in time; but, the exams aren't difficult. Points based with 6 exams, super easy quizes, & HW. Take advantage of every point so that you aren't struggling for them at the end.

One of my favorite professors at Clemson! She does a flipped classroom so you watch lecture videos before class then do practice problems in class with partners. This is really beneficial as it helps you apply the concepts and work on practice problems similar to the ones on exams. If you do the smartbooks and her review problems you will do good.

If you ask her a questions she will help you but she is so strict. She also seems to have no issue with her test averages being commonly at 65. You basically watch her lecture video and teach yourself, there is no learning done when you actually attend class. I think she means well but does not approach this class in the correct way.

Dr. Hawkins is a good teacher. She's very helpful and responds to emails within 2 hours 90% of the time. As long as you go to class and put in effort, she's not gonna be mean to you. She is a very honest person, so I can see how sometimes that could seem rude. I learned a lot. the one thing is- you do have to go fast on tests and know your stuff

She has a flipped classroom and the in class time is spent working on problems. She is very helpful and actually wants her students to do well. The attendance/probelms in class are for a grade which really helps your grade if you go. She is strict but willing to help you. This is a tough class but I think Hawkins is really good at teaching it.

By far my least favorite professor, her note packets don't correlate with the exams at all. Did not complete a single exam without time expiring. All learning is done via videos and notes which is very hard to truly learn from. She does not care if you pass or fail. This is already an extremly difficult class DO NOT take her.

Dr. Hawkins is an amazing professor. The class is flipped, but she reteaches hard concepts in class and walks through problems for those topics. I think she overprepares you for tests, and I never came across a problem on a test that wasn't in the notes. Take her she's the BEST. Also super accessible outside of class.

Professor Hawkins is a Great professor, but you have to really study and put effort to know the content. The class is flipped so you HAVE to go to class and ask questions to clear up any misunderstandings you may have. I'd give her a 5 but her test are just so dang hard. If you decide to take her class really understand the homework and smartbooks.
