Reviews of professor Jessica Peterson

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Wasn't a fan of her. She wasn't kind to her TA's and made you feel embarrassed if you asked questions. She also got emotional during lecture. Attendance isn't mandatory for lecture, it is for lab. The material itself isn't too bad, but you do need to study.

Professor Peterson is a nice teacher and she definitely cares for her students. She is a bit tougher on the grading side. She replied to emails fairly quickly and was flexible on some due dates since we were online. I found her to be a little annoying but I also took her class at 7:45 so that could be the reason.

She is a kind hearted person but expects way too much out of you. I was taking a ton of credits and I tried my best but couldn't fit in time to practice my speeches with more important classes I had for my major. I probably wouldn't have passed if it weren't for her e.c. She's very nice, but expects way way too much. Try to avoid taking cs with her

Peterson cares about her students and you can see that in her work easily as she constantly is asking her students questions and trying to help them to the best of her abilities. She's a hard grader and at times it was difficult to understand what exactly we were going to be graded on. There are two big speeches and a group project that are easy.

Patterson is very kind, but she is a very harsh grader and grades speechs beyond the rubric criteria. Make sure to show up to all assigned classes and ask where materials are on canvas because she has them hidden on the pages.

She made me want to go to class, but also let students zoom in if they talked her before hand if they were sick. She was quick to get back and her canvas page was very well organized. Only issue was amount of group work that you didn't get to pick and the amount of work for the final. Only had 1 in-person speech, rest were recorded or zoomed.

Prof. P is a nice gal, but be careful not to get on her bad side. She can be a tough grader for seemingly no reason, and can be very condescending at times. PRO TIP: there are online book quizzes every week that she will not remind you about so make sure you check Canvas a lot. Lectures can be really fun and she often let us out 30 min early.

Professor Peterson was by far my favorite professor. She understands students need mental health days and as long as you get work done before her hard deadlines you're good to go. She is a little tough on the grading side but if you actually try you'll get a good grade. She's relatable, funny, and super chill. By far my fav prof. Highly recommend!!

I really enjoyed class with Jess. She does make you work for it though and is a tough grader when it comes to your speeches, but she tries her best to make things fun in class.
