Reviews of professor Masha Hedberg

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Professor Hedberg does not make her grading criteria clear at all, and her lectures are not very engaging. If you have her, make sure to write every piece of information you know on the exams because she expects you to write more than the question asks for. She makes an intro class way more complicated than it needs to be.

Masha is so sweet, lectures can be a little boring but she is so knowledgeable. That being said, she doesn't take anyone's bs and you really have to work to get good grades. I highly suggest going to her office hours, she makes things much more clear. Run everything by her before you submit it, papers, projects, everything.

Professor Hedberg is very smart and is passionate about what she teaches. Her lectures can get a bit boring, but try to take notes and participate once in a while and you'll do well. There is a big test and essay due that can be quite difficult but she's helpful if you talk to her.

Hedberg is indeed a great professor and I think she does a good job in explaining the material. The class is heavily discussion-based and she cares a lot about class participation. Be ready to read! There is at least 30-40 pages of reading for every class. End-of-semester work can be quite overwhelming.

Professor Hedberg did a great job at getting me interested in something I knew nothing about before taking the class. She is accessible outside of class and gives good feedback. Participation is important. Sometimes the lectures could be a bit boring.
