Attendance required via iClicker but would not be valid if 1 minute late. Lectures felt wildly useless; prof was on a quarter-long tangent. Literally didn't take notes. TA essentially taught the course. Easy A in terms of tests/paper but absolutely insufferable otherwise. Don't take unless good for GEs; ONLY reason I didn't drop the course ASAP.
FOR CLIT30C. Professor was super engaging, supportive, and accommodating. Very inspirational and I love him. Take this man
overall very informational class, learned so much.
I believe Andre is a fair grader. His class is not necessarily hard but you do have to give a little effort if you want to get an A. He is very understanding and accessible and his lectures are interesting. His feedback comments on papers are also helpful and detailed. I have learned a lot.
His main goal in each class is for you to find a connection the readings and literature that are assigned to us. There is one short essay midterm, a presentation, and a final paper. The class is taught in Portuguese, but he will provide materials in English. It's a lot more interesting if you participate in the discussions. Small class sizes!
