EEMB7 . Marsh J 2 Months Ago

I had Professor Marsh over the Summer 2025 quarter and actually really enjoyed attending her lectures. She has a great vibe, gives out snacks when you participate, and provides plenty of hints for what material to focus on when studying.

EEMB7 . Marsh J 3 Months Ago

She is so sweet! Would def take a class with her again. She also gives you so many assignments to get your grades up and extra credit as well.

EEMB7 . Marsh J 3 Months Ago

Marsh is my fav prof I have ever had. I took EEMB7 during summer at 8 am, and it was clear she really understood the struggle of having to learn a 10 week course in 6 weeks. She uploaded practice exams on Canvas for us, had her TA run review sessions the day before exams, & was really receptive to feedback. Really kind & caring professor overall.

EEMB120 . Marsh J 4 Months Ago

She was great, tests were rough tho. She gives practice exams that are mostly mc just for the tests to be free response. Everything could and will be on the test so study everything. There are a lot of topics in this class, so make flashcards or something to try and keep up with all the vocab and concepts.

very nice professor for the last half of the quarter. makes things very clear and tells you straight up what she will be testing on. explains things pretty well and connects it to relevant topics. brings snacks to encourage participation and is very enthusiastic about this topic and her field of study :-)

EEMB120 . Marsh J 6 Months Ago

Dr. Marsh is a great professor and I took her for EEMB 120 and EEMB 138 in the spring of 2025. She is very kind and cares a lot about the success of her students. As long as you go to class, it is easy to get an A in her courses, since she makes it very clear what to expect on exams. She doesn't record lectures unfortunately
