Reviews of professor Marsha Pels

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
She is a great art professor that teaches drawing. If you want to learn or needed help on how to draw human figures/anatomy- this class will help! There is a museum paper & reading & you will need to buy a few art supplies. There is a power point project too. She is a fair grader and is very well-knowledge. Bingo is also adorable!! Highly recommend

She's a good professor, put in the effort and listen to her feedback and you'll pass. Don't get on her bad side by skipping classes and not doing the assignments because she'll be less likely to work with you. Don't do the work at all and you'll fail. Shes an easy prof as long as you put in the work. Bad w/ technology. Otherwise i enjoyed her class

I loved this professor. She can be very critical and harsh of your work but she gives great feedback and will help you if you ask. I also fell behind on some of the journal work, but she was rather lenient and still gave me an A. I felt like I learned a lot in this class. I've had the work she had us frame hanging on my wall since 2022.

pels is completely unavoidable if you're in studio art. she has very clear favorites and doesn't hesitate to tell the entire class who's piece was the best. the entire semester will just be you trying to replicate famous pieces of art & her not giving specific feedback but expecting you to fix them accordingly. she's tough but manageable

very nice professor- online wise, she was a bit all over the place and hard to follow instructionally. grades/critiques very very very harshly and gets frustrated easily when instructions are not followed. her feedback is helpful though. would be stronger as an in-person class.
