Reviews of professor Elisa Geiss

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
She is one of the most unorganized teacher I have ever had. Not only unorganized, but could barely figure out how to fill the class time with useful information, and was extremely passive aggressive. Her grading makes absolutely NO SENSE. On homework that she would say was supposed to be informal was graded like an exam. Taught myself pretty much.

Dr. Geiss was new to teaching when I took her class. Students asked questions throughout lecture and there were certain times when she couldn't provide an answer saying instead: "I'll look into it and let you know." Two papers, midterm, and Final make up your grade. It's not hard to get an A in her class.

She is the sweetest professor. You can tell she really cares about the subject she teaches. The class was extremely interesting. It was a little unstructured, but hey who doesn't like constant class discussions. We even had a class potluck. Was really enjoyable, learned a lot too. I would go out of my way to take her again. 2 papers, 2 tests.

Very nice and knowledgeable. Lots of class activities so it's not so boring.

Dr. Geiss is an incredibly sweet teacher! This class was super interesting. She was able to bring in lots of her professional experiences. Her exams were based on her lecture notes. Her assignments are not boring essays like in other classes. They are either creative projects or related to the field/careers outside the classroom. Learned a lot! :)

I loved Professor Geiss! She is one of the few professors that truly care about their students and their success. Her class was really interesting as well. On top of that, she is very accessible outside of class and is very willing to help you succeed. If you do the assignments, her class is pretty doable. 100% recommend her!

Class was pretty easy. We had three midterms, which is unusually many, but the upside was that if you did extremely well on them, you didn't even have to show up on the final. Overall, she was a great professor, and there's nothing to fear from the class. Very little homework, just some notes we wrote once a week.

This professor cared about her student's well-being and cares that they pass! I recommend taking her class, she will help you understand the material in a fun way and her classes are always engaging! I would take her class again!

Geiss was extremely caring and considerate during the class being online for spring. The topic is pretty interesting, however there is a lot of busy work in my opinion. It does cushion your grade from exams, but there is a lot of assignments and readings to do on launchpad. If you can dedicate some time, you'll be good.
