CollegeShe tends to teach very passionately which is amazing yet the questions are formulated off of her own knowledge and seem almost like trick questions 90% of the time, if you're one to psyche yourself out on questions in class, any of her classes are not for you. Barely any assignments so one or two bad grades can really run you your quarter
This was a horrible class. She's not a very nice person in the class, but she's pretty nice outside randomly. Maybe art history people like her...
Professor Khoury was very unorganized, often went on tangents, and slides weren't very clear. There are two papers, midterm, and final. Attendance is mandatory but the slides aren;t helpful I only passed the class because of the webcam slides she posted after each week.
Super sweet and really knows what she's talking about. All the information is given in lectures and sections and if you go to them it's pretty easy.
Prof. Khoury is a nice person but might be one of the worst lecturers I've ever had. Aside from her lack of technological capabilities, the lectures themselves are disorganized and uninteresting. There is no textbook that students have to get, she provides PDFs of any readings needed. Unfortunately, the readings are usually unhelpful.
Professor is very sweet and clearly passionate about the subject but she's extremely disorganized and the lectures are very hard to follow because she goes on tangents and doesn't present information in an organized way. This is a horrible class to take as a GE, if you need to fulfill one of its GE requirements just take a different class.
