ITAL-139ZX . Hom S M 3 Months Ago

Amazing professor, she made it very simple to learn. Easy to get A if you attend class and turn everything in on time.

ITAL-139ZX . Hom S M 3 Months Ago

Shes an ok prof. Her class is super easy but you need to have perfect attendance or it will kill your grade. She also doesn't give poeple second chances if you miss one of her quizes. Lost 10% of my grade because I didn't know they were due at 4pm on a thursday. Her lectures are good but take good notes cause its only photos and yaps on tangents.

ITAL-139ZX . Hom S M 3 Months Ago

Professor Hom was amazing! I took this class for elective credits, and I absolutely enjoyed it. Her lectures are very well presented and clear. Tests are very straightforward, and the material she presents is very interesting and will make you want to learn more. I highly recommend taking her classes!

ITAL120X . Hom S M 11 Months Ago

Hom is an incredibly qualified professor who gave super engaging lectures! I took 120X as a random GE but genuinely learned so much. There was minimal work, primarily just readings. Essay rather than in-person final was also a bonus. Would recommend for anyone.

ITAL120X . Hom S M 1 Year, 10 Days Ago

My favorite professor I've had so far! Her class was so interesting and I would 100% recommend it to anyone! The class consisted of a couple online quizzes, a midterm, and a final paper. Overall not a lot of work and I would definitely take this class again!

Proffesor Hom is truly an incredible professor who cares so deeply for her students and will go above and beyond to ensure that we are on the right track to success in her class. I have taken three classes with Professor Hom, and I hope to take more. Her lectures are so engaging and insightful, and she gives us many opportunities to be creative!
