Reviews of professor Amanda Kennell

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Avoids student questions at all costs. Her office hours are 45 minutes to an hour on only 2 days a week. It makes it seem likes she's really trying to avoid all her students. Honestly, probably the worst professor I've had at UB so far .

I don't know about her other classes, but she is a great professor that taught my class. Everything was clearly stated on the syllabus and everything was graded fairly. She gave a great amount of extra credit that helped me get an A in the class. Attendance is mandatory as she does attendance checks and quizzes every class. Just pay attention. A+

I went to her office hours and after class one time to inquire about a paper that she had wanted me to write. The first paper she graded, she added a comment about my bibliography. When I went to her office hours and after class to get more specific answers as to how I could do better; she was rude and dismissive. Not helpful at all.

Doubt about her profession on Asian Study, apparently this professor know nothing about Asian culture and diversities, but lives in her own world.

So I went in trying to like Professor Kennell even though I saw she had horrible ratings on here, but she failed .Her expertise is in asian studies, so why she's teaching screenwriting I'll never know. She's too heavily reliant on a single textbook and really unapproachable/disrespectful to her students. Hard and unfair grader too, for no reason.

This teacher did little to actually give us an education about the course material, while focusing only on material that was of interest to her, which does not reflect anime as a whole. Quizzes were on obscure topics, which many failed. Quizzes are 60% of your grade. Better off in a real Japanese culture class.
