Reviews of professor Jennifer Otto

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
She did part of the semester for us . She had 3 tests there is no homework. the first two tests were worth 15% and the last one was worth 20%. Overall there are 6 tests in the class. Her study guides helped a lot and 90% of questions come from her notes. She is very nice and passionate about religion and really caring. There is no homework.

I had Jennifer for the first half of RELS 1000 for Western Religions. She was a good prof who wants the best outcomes for her students. She had 2 exams totaling 50% of the course grade. She keeps he lectures somewhat interesting even though the material is boring. Gives very useful study guides, fill them out if you want to do good on her exams

Dr Otto is a very kind, passionate and intelligent prof. Her test outlines are super helpful to do well on her tests. As long as you've read the material and watched the lectures you will do well.

I loved this class. In Rels1000 I found she moved really fast to get through a LOT of material, but by just focusing on Christianity her lectures were awesome. The tests were pretty straightforward, just vocab and short answer, and the paper and essay final had very clear outlines. Tons of cool history and practices, 10/10 would recommend.

Professor Otto is amazing. She isn't my favourite prof, but she gets the job done and does it well. Her tests can be a bit hard, but besides that she is amazing. Her lectures are clear. She explains her expectations really well. She did split learning this semester in order to be accessible to all students. She is great at her job.

I have taken 2 classes with Professor Otto and she is one of my favourite professors at the U of L. Its important to come prepared for discussions and there is lots of homework, however the material is interesting and she is a very caring professor willing to help with whatever her students need. Great at delivering sensitive material without bias!

Overall, she was pretty good. The study guides are super helpful, except for all the spelling mistakes? I noticed so many spelling mistakes in all of her study guides, especially on the Islam one... it honestly seemed like she was just sounding out the terms?? Super confused since these are terms she literally teaches...

Professor Otto is a mediocre professor at best; she does not deserve all of the criticism she receives, but she by no means is fantastic either. Overall her lectures were quite dry and in order to do well on her tests you must memorize a lot of dates. Avoid a class with her is possible!

Dr. Otto taught the first half of World Religions and I really enjoyed the way she taught. She is extremely knowledgeable and explains things very well and clearly. Her notes were well organized which made studying a lot easier. If you make a quizlet with dates and the terms from her vocab list, it'll be hard to do bad on her tests.
