Reviews of professor Rebecca Moody

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Really good philosophy professor! Workload is very manageable and easy to succeed. Participation counts, but its a very judgement free zone so anything you say is valued.

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Knows what she's teaching and values participation. In her class, it's okay to have opposing viewpoints on everything, which is good. The movies are more interesting than initially perceived. The readings and papers are long and the Harkness Discussion is very in depth, but do your work and you'll end up fine.

Heavy reading; the topic is about MENA but shifts focus to feminism and liberal ideologies quickly. The class is self-grading, but the final grade is chosen by her with zero transparency. She grades revised work but gives feedback when term ends. Very hard to revise work when class has ended. She contradicts herself and is unprofessional at times.

Great teacher. She really cares about the material. The difficulty rating is only because of the amount of reading. Every night before class there is a required reading that is anywhere between 15-30 pages. A pain. Luckily she is really nice and doesn't call people out. I really liked her

If you can take a class with her do it. She is incredibly helpful and caring. That being said, this class wasn't exactly what I was expecting. It focuses on more recent philosophy starting at Marx and following a lineage of thinkers after him. This class was still really interesting and I would take this class again just for this professor.

Fantastic teacher. Keeps you engaged through challenging texts and encourages you to work at it.

Prof Moody is a great professor. She makes sure every student is included and comfortable during class. The midterm was a 6-8 page group paper and the final was a 10-12 page paper. Though because of things that happened on campus, it was changed and she was very flexible and understanding. HW: One paged abstract per week on the assigned content.

She was one of the first teachers I had, and was one of my favorite teachers. I took global feminisms with her, and it was a great eye opener. She really makes you think and gives a lot of work, but is super accommodating. She is super kind and definitely a cheerleader for every one of her students. I highly recommend taking one of her courses.
