such a sweet and caring professor! gives feedback and allows you revise your work and resubmit for more points. no midterms or final, only written assignments and open discussions in class
She is honestly the sweetest and wants to see you succeed!
Has an informal lecturing style and self deprecating humor, but overall not strict in the slightest and tries to explain what is often dry material as best she can. Very accomodating grade wise with tests (curves) and group projects. She bends her rules for the benefit of her students and does not want them to be stressed.
Great Professor. Knows a lot and is very helpful and kind. Good discussions with students.
F20:Profesora Miglio is awesome! She feeds off participation during live lecture, so the more participation the better. Very flexible w/ attendance. Grade is mostly from 4 translations, the rest is in short forum responses and attendance. Sometimes things were confusing, but if you ask, she clarifies! Super valuable info, awesome class!
Viola is a great professor, extremely knowledgeable and willing to help students. I would take her class again.
