Reviews of professor Naomi Shuyama

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
She is so nice and very good at helping with the writing portion. She was a little disorganized and her criteria wasn't always clear, but if you see her outside of class, she will help you so much with your papers!

My friend recommended this professor to me. Don't be fooled. She is young but ridiculously smart. Writing was her thing so she absolutely destroyed my papers but was amazing about explaining and giving tips for better writing. She genuinely understands the shu struggle. This class was my favorite of the semester.

Professor Shuyama is sharp and witty. She's good about giving extra help when needed, especially during office hours but has a no-nonsense attitude about lateness or not reading. She can be a really tough grader on papers, quizzes, and other assignments so be prepared to have your rough drafts torn apart. You will learn and improve a lot though.

She is young, very well-rounded and is very discussion heavy but it's not overbearing! She is actually pretty funny too. She's kind of a tough grader, but she will definitely help you learn. We had homework every class 95% of the time. You have 4 papers in total and will give you detailed feedback.
