Holly was an amazing professor. She is willing to help her students whenever, and is a very nice lady. Her style of teaching is a little different but you just gotta give it some time and you'll get used to it. Youl will always get an A on the tests, as long as you show up, and there were midterm/final essays that were super easy as long as you pay attention in class. I thought she was very helpful, and i did learn alot in her class.

This was the second time I took a class with Denning. The first time around, I really didn't enjoy class with her. But this time, she seemed much more organized and less confusing. Class is really easy, tests are either open book or taken with a partner. You have a few homework assignments and 2 events to go to, but she always gives extra credit. She is obviously very knowledgeable about what she's teaching and I think if you give her a chance, you'll learn to like her teaching style.
Positive:
Is willing to help students anytime
Shows a love of teaching
Shows a great knowledge of subject matter
Negative:
Notes/lecture is confusing

Really easy to get an A in her class. She gives you kind of long assignments, but they're not that difficult to do if you try. She gives a lot of different perspectives on certain topics.

Your grade is based on 3 sets of discussion questions based on one of the textbooks. You can choose the chapters you want to discuss. You must also read two books for her class. You need to attend two cultural events or lectures. You can right two film reviews from a list she gives you. The midterm was an open book and group discussion exam. There is also a midterm essay that is done outside of class. It can be confusing to know what is due when, so check with her always on that.

Alright this class is soOoO boring, but it is super easy. You do group tests, write two papers, and do three homework assignments. You watch a lot of movies in her class & it counts as an ethnicity credit. Take her. You won't regret it
