WRIT1 . Sorapure M I 9 Months Ago

This class was very easy and the professor obviously shows that she wants her students to do well. Attendance is mandatory and the classes were quite exhausting and boring from time to time. As long as you listen and do the homework, an A in this class is quite easy to achieve.

Took her one unit seminar and overall had a great experience! Very sweet and accommodating. Even through an online format, you can tell she really cares about her students.

Madeleine is so sweet, caring, and attentive. Her class was chill but I learned a lot about coding, web design, and creating a personal portfolio. She really cares about her students and is so approachable.

Really an awesome instructor - she's enthusiastic about her work, employs a wide array of media practices, assigns creative and relevant projects, will enhance your computer literacy, and is very invested in her students. One of my favorite classes at UCSB so far!

WRT105 . Sorapure M I 15 Years Ago

She gives arbitrary grades on papers, with no rubric, makes no sense. instead of teaching us about the actual "new media" which could have been a great class on the blog revolution and newspaper blogs, she teaches the class as if its a trade school, not a uc. We do pointless stuff, and then write essays about what we did, shes nice but not smart
