Opinion: PSY 3313 - Malavanti is super sweet, funny, and genuinely wants to help her students, however, her teaching style is extremely difficult. Both people in my team-taught class when it was her unit, and other classes have agreed that the way she teaches is a bit hard to follow. For this class, slides were mostly just from the textbook, and I feel like I could just stay home. She also seems to word things in a overly academic way that makes it hard to follow unless youre a linguistic learner. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: CFS 3356 - Ms. Crowder is so sweet! She's very likable and also works clinically in her field so she has a lot of tangible, real-world experience to teach us. I really appreciated that she could teach past just theory, but practical applications that helped me in my personal life and with my own family, but also for when I get into a career. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: NSC 3311 - Dr. Bodet is actually so awesome. I have taken many psych/neuro classes by now and I can say with confidence that he is the BEST prof I have had so far in terms of teaching ability. He truly just knows how to teach in a way that gets through and it just WORKS. I found this class extremely interesting and exciting to learn about too, and you can tell that he also is passionate about what he teaches. He made Cognition my favorite psych class I have taken at Baylor. Also no "hw" besides a few questions on something called a "CTW" that is a cheat sheet you can USE on the quiz. Quizzes are also group quizzes which helps a lot. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: HIS 1300 - Took her for U.S. Global Perspective. I went in knowing my whole life I have hated history and have never been able to do well in history classes. However, Dr. Kirillova made me actually interested! She really does teach in a way that is accessible to people from all majors, as well as she includes lots of images/videos that helps. There is about 1-2 HW assignments per 2 weeks. It is not a fixed amount, but the HW was also always pretty easy and not time consuming. Love her! - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: SPA2320 - Let me give you the rundown. I had no homework for this class for the entire semester. This is because it is 30% participation, and the rest is midterm and final, meaning it can be very biased. Professor Mazé is generally not a very friendly person, so it was really hard for me to keep participating even after he would make fun of me or someone else. Also, to save you some time, on your oral exams, make sure that you are making personal connections to the literature, not a summary of what happened. Some people really like him, and some really don’t, but you can definitely do it! All in all, yes I did get an A, but I would not take this class again if I had a choice. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 2310 - DO NOT TAKE BARRETT. Prof. Barrett is a very kind woman, but her teaching style is all over the place. Unless you've got prior familiarity with Spanish (I'm talking 4+ yrs exp. or are a heritage speaker), you're going to struggle or need to cram for each test. By the way, there's FOUR tests, SIX written quizzes and her worksheets are hard-copy turn in ONLY. Tests are incredibly long, too. She answers e-mails quite quickly and explains concepts if you ask her for extra help, but in a teaching setting it's incredibly difficult to understand basic Spanish concepts. Overall, if you put in the effort you'll get an A, but I'd take any other professor before SPA2310. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 4365 - He explains concepts with a lot of in-class examples, which makes the material easier to understand, but he does move quickly because he dives deep into each topic. There’s optional homework and a group project. If you stay engaged in class and actually do the homework, this ends up being a very manageable and straightforward finance course. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: Ethnopolitical Conflicts - He is the worst professor I've ever had. He's called students stupid, yelled at students in class, and he thinks we're dumb and don't know anything. His grading is soooo harsh, and the workload and readings are far greater than any other PSC class I've taken. Take any professor over him. The class is hard, he's rude, and there is so much work. - Grade In Class:B+

Opinion: FRE 1302 - Dr. Boerm's 1302 class was still considered an elementary French class. I think the line between challenging us and plain confusion got crossed sometimes, but as a whole, he was a great professor who clearly wanted to help out his students. Learning any language from scratch is never going to be easy. The one thing I might say is the pop quizzes. In an upper level French class, that is an expectation, but with elementary, it gets frustrating to keep up the motivation to learn somewhat difficult concepts. With this in mind, though, he always pushed us to try our best to answer in French in class, and do our best on the homework. Exams were difficult. Very difficult. The exams had the same idea as teaching us directly what we should know in class, but then combining everything into one large problem set where everything is combined. Overall, I think he's a great professor, but maybe switch out the pop quiz for a separate assignment - Grade In Class:B

Opinion: 2302 - Dr. Morrison was one of my favorites! I'm not in the humanities for my major, but I took this class because I found art history really interesting in high school. She loves her students and is extremely passionate about what she teaches. I think sometimes people complain because, as with most intro Art History courses, it's going to be a lot of sitting and listening to a lecture with slides and pictures, but that's not a fault of any lecturer in beginning Art History. Exams weren't necessarily easy, but as long as you can write a good essay and know the basic facts of the unit, you should be good in this class. There were also very few homework assignments in general, with a large part of our grade coming from the exams. She gave extra credit on most exams. Overall, I absolutely loved Dr. Morrison and would absolutely take another class with her if I could! - Grade In Class:B+
